On my eighteenth birthday, my parents asked me to choose between Damien Adams and Teo Silva, heirs to two powerful families, for an arranged marriage. I picked Damien Adams without hesitation. In a past life, I had chosen my childhood friend, Teo Silva. The night our engagement was announced, Teo's beloved Edith jumped from a window, leaving her paralyzed and unable to have children. From that day on, Teo blamed me for everything. Even after carrying his child for nine months, he took the baby from me and wrecked my family's business. My parents couldn't handle the bankruptcy; they died in a fire at home. Eventually, I succumbed to despair too. Upon waking in this new life, I chose Damien, determined not to repeat past mistakes. But when I announced my engagement to Damien, Teo lost it.
