She was the illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family—abandoned by her father, oppressed by his legal wife, and humiliated by the so-called sister. She watched her mother perish in a raging fire and was thrown into the flames herself.
Her name was Janice. And she died in that fire.
Ten years later, under a new identity and the name “Janet,” she survives in silence. Forced by her stepmother to marry a wealthy heir rumored to be "paralyzed and disabled," she becomes entangled in a vicious struggle of family betrayal and ruthless power games.
With cold eyes, she watches the hypocrites who once trampled her into the mud—one by one, they will become prey on her road to revenge.
Her wheelchair-bound "husband" Philip, the feuding brothers Charles and August… But what she didn't expect was that the boy who once quietly handed her a handkerchief all those years ago would become the most unpredictable piece in her game of fate.
She has returned—not for hatred, but to personally end the past that was once crushed beneath their feet.

Ever since Trista had started speaking, she had never once called her "Mama."


Now, hearing those two simple syllables slip from her daughter's tiny lips, Janice's heart swelled with emotion. In that instant, she felt as though tears could pour from her eyes like rain.


Janice swept Trista into her arms, showering her clean little face with kisses. She had dreamed of this moment from the day she returned. Now, finally, she had heard Trista's voice call for her—and her heart felt impossibly full.


In this life, she already had the love of an outstanding man like Charles, a sweet daughter like Trista, and was carrying another child they had created together. Nothing else could move her this deeply.
