Upang makalimutan ang masalimuot na pangyayari ay umalis si Victoria at plano niya sanang magsimula ng panibagong buhay. Ngunit tila pinaglalaruan siya ng tadhana dahil sa isang gabing nalasing siya sa hindi pamilyar na lugar ay nagising nalang siyang katabi ang isang lalaking kailanman ay hindi niya nanaising makadaupan man lang ng kanyang palad! Ang nag-iisang kaaway ng kanyang kapatid, si Walter Jace Coleman. Balak niya sanang takasan ang lalaki na hindi nito nalalaman ngunit bigla itong nagising at hinila siya sa paa dahilan upang maglanding ang katawan niya sa ibabaw nito! “Where do you think you`re going kitten? Pagkatapos mo akong halikan kagabi ay hindi mo na ako pananagutan?” Sa araw din na iyon ay nagbago ang ikot ng buhay ni Victoria. Kilala sa buong bansa ang pamilya ni Walter at alam niya kung gaano kalamig at kinakatakutan ang pagkatao nito.

Sa madaling salita ay na-obsessed sa kanya si Walter. May pag-asa pa kaya siyang makawala sa kamay ng bilyonaryo?

My stepson pushes me down from the second floor, all because I accidentally break a bowl. He stands over me, looking down with a cold, emotionless gaze. "You're just a stand-in my grandfather forced on us. Don't even think about replacing my mother!" I stare up at the boy I've raised for eight years, and his indifference cuts deeper than any wound. Blood slowly trickles down from my forehead. Fighting through the pain, I dial a number. "Whatever debt I owed has been paid. It's time for me to leave." Coincidentally, I already have the divorce agreement that his father has signed.

Tim Dalman has always wanted to be an actress. Finally landing on her big break in the industry, she finds herself with another problem—she reunites with her ex-boyfriend, Raphael Liu, who also happens to be the screenwriter of the television series she is a part of. Finding out about it, she is faced with different problems in the span of her series shootings as the guy doesn’t want to make everything easy for her. She develops hatred for the guy, constantly finding herself in heated arguments between the two of them. Destiny then plays amusingly as their love team becomes popular, forcing her to stick with the guy as she is told to do so if she wants her career to grow. She later finds out the reason why Raphael broke up with her years ago, and is later left with a career-breaking problem that could not only possibly end not only her rising fame, but her improving relationship with Raphael as well.

On Children's Day, the most popular social media post is about me. The caption is: "Mr. Shane Norton spends his birthday with his son David Norton and his first love, Ruth Feynman.

My husband sounds anxious as he tries to explain himself. "David suddenly insisted that we go to a theme park, so I—" In the background, I hear David laughing. "Dad, Ruthie says that I can sleep with her tonight!" I look at the mess in the house. The balloons are drooping, and the cream on the cake is congealed. "You don't have to explain," I hear myself say. "I understand." It's just that this time, I don't want you or David any longer, Shane.

The night my parents were kidnapped, my brother—who happened to be a police officer—chose to go bungee jumping with the fake heiress. I didn't stop him. Instead, I called the police and began preparing the ransom. In my previous life, my brother had forgone the outing to rescue our parents. As a result, the rope snapped during her jump, sending her plummeting into the abyss. Her body was never recovered. He never spoke a word about it afterward. On my birthday, he drugged me and dragged me to that very cliff. "You orchestrated the kidnapping! You'd go this far for their attention? You're nothing but a monster! Lillian is dead. You don't deserve to live either!" When I opened my eyes again, I found myself back on the night my parents were kidnapped. This time, my brother didn't rush to their rescue. Instead, he ran to the fake heiress. But in the end, he regretted it so much that he nearly lost his mind.
