As they work closely together, both uncover deeper emotional struggles—Lena’s fear of never being taken seriously in her career and Noah’s guilt over a past business failure. Their professional conflict leads to a breaking point when Lena resigns from the project after a heated argument.

Reluctantly, she agrees, and together they craft a new design that merges their visions, transforming their professional collaboration into a personal awakening.

In the end, they learn that trust, love, and collaboration are the keys to not only their professional triumph but also to building a lasting relationship.

"Your Highness." "Lady Eiren." Di bawah langit malam yang kelam, tanpa sedikit pun memunculkan cahayanya sang bintang apalagi cahaya sang rembulan. Di tengah-tengah taman yang banyak ditanami bunga eglantine yang merumpun, … juga di antara hujan taburan kelopak bunga pohon plum yang jatuh meluruh. Beserta di sekitar beterbangannya bola-bola cahaya api, dilengkapi dengan kepakkan sayap kecil ratusan kupu-kupu merah muda.

Akan tetapi, pertanyaannya, … apakah ada, yang akan mau menerima monster seperti Qilistaria? Semuanya berpikir, bahwa orang gila sekali pun, … tak akan pernah mau mendekati sang putri terkutuk tersebut. Apalagi ini, sampai mau menjadikan perempuan mengerikan sepertinya sebagai seorang istri. Namun, …. ————— "Istri, apakah kamu tahu? Cinta sejati yang selama ini kamu cari-cari itu, bukanlah cinta dari sepasang kekasih yang saling mencintai apa adanya, … bukan pula cinta sepasang kekasih yang tak memandang ras, agama, suku, beserta status."

産後の養生期間を終えたばかりの神原美蘭（かんばら みらん）は、子どもを連れて出生届を提出するため、役所へ向かった。 「すみません、この子の名前は賀茂律（かも りつ）です」 職員がキーボードを数回叩いたが、眉間の皺は次第に深くなっていった。 「賀茂桐真（かも とうま）さん名義の戸籍には、すでに賀茂律という名前の子どもが登録されていますよ」 美蘭は一瞬ぽかんとして、聞き間違いかと思った。 「そんなはずないです、うちの子はまだ生まれて1ヶ月なんですよ！」 その言葉が終わらないうちに、ポケットの中のスマホが震えた。 画面を開くと、桐真の秘書である浅草紗雪（あさくさ さゆき）から送られてきた写真だった。 写真には、桐真が左手で紗雪の腰を抱き、右手で6歳くらいの男の子を抱えている姿が写っていた。3人は幼稚園の入口の前に立ち、まぶしいほどに笑っていた。 その男の子の胸についた名札には、「賀茂律」という3文字がはっきりと書かれていた。
