Peu de temps après leur mariage, un accident de voiture les avait séparés : Océane était devenue une personne végétative et Thibault avait perdu la mémoire. Lorsque Océane s'est réveillée finalement, deux années s'étaient déjà écoulées. À ce moment-là, Thibault était déjà avec une autre femme. Pire encore, pour cette autre femme, Thibault avait diffusé des photos nues d'Océane à l'Université Lumière d'Émeraude, la forçant ainsi à divorcer. Déçue, Océane est partie. Cinq ans plus tard. Au moment où Océane se remariait, Thibault est apparu en pleurant devant chez elle. « Océane, je me suis souvenu de tout, tu ne peux pas épouser quelqu'un d'autre ! » « Maman, tu ne peux pas parler à d'autres oncles, papa sera jaloux ! », a dit un enfant adorable, tendant la main à Gaspard Leroux qui descendait de la voiture. « Papa, câlin ! »

Both in education, and in my career. I love children, and I've aspired to land a very good job as a social worker who cares for kids for as long as I can remember. When New York's most eligible bachelor and billionaire Evans Armstrong propositions me to become a nanny for his nephew, I'm speechless. Out of every options he had available, he choose me. And his nephew is the sweetest boy I've ever encountered. Maybe, just maybe I can achieve my dreams after all. Evans: Life was never the same ever since my sister Serena died, leaving me with her son Brandon. Each day that passes, I strive to be a better man, and provide for Brandon everything he needs. He's a smart kid, and he deserves the best. Which is why I go out of my way in searching for a suitable nanny to tend to him, since my efforts can only go so far. When I see Carolina for the first time, she's striking. And her polite demeanor has a ripple effect on young Brandon. I know immediately that she's the right one for him. She would make a wonderful nanny. And perhaps, a wonderful wife.
