Claire Morel avait un mariage au-dessus de sa condition, mais cette ascension était comme un poignard dans le cœur. Mariée depuis sept ans à Gabriel Morel, un homme imprévisible, elle n'était à ses yeux qu'une ombre, ignorée, traitée avec une indifférence glaciale. Elle gardait l'espoir qu'un jour, après la tempête, le ciel serait clair et que sa vie serait enfin complète et heureuse. Sous une neige tourbillonnante, lors d'un anniversaire que seule elle retenait, elle a enfin compris : toute cette famille était liée par le sang, tandis qu'elle restait à jamais une étrangère, une étrangère sans lien. Son mari lui en voulait d'avoir brisé le mariage arrangé qu'il avait depuis l'enfance avec son amie d'enfance, et leur fils ne manquait jamais une occasion de lui rappeler qu'elle ne ferait jamais le poids face à cette figure idéalisée que son père avait toujours aimée. Son mari et son fils l'ont trahie pour une autre femme, qu'ils ont traitée comme un membre de la famille. Face à ce chaos absurde, elle a senti son cœur se réduire en cendres et a demandé le divorce. Elle a renoncé à la garde de son enfant et a opéré une métamorphose impressionnante, devenant une créatrice de mode internationale renommée, ainsi qu'une peintre de génie. Ses œuvres, rares et précieuses, étaient très recherchées par de nombreuses célébrités. Pourtant, alors qu'elle a renoncé, son mari et son fils refusaient de la laisser partir. Son fils pleurait en criant : « Tu es ma maman ! Tu ne peux pas prendre un autre enfant dans tes bras ! » Et même son mari, d'ordinaire si distant, a commencé à lui coller aux basques, refusant catégoriquement le divorce : « C'est toi qui m'as choisi en premier, alors tu dois aller jusqu'au bout ! Divorce ? N'y pense même pas ! »
