Fueled by years of grief over her late mother's death and whispers of betrayal, Darinkan crafts an elaborate plot to expose and eliminate Ploysaengβenlisting allies, fabricating scandals, and unraveling long-buried family secrets that threaten to destroy them all. As Ploysaeng fights to prove her unwavering love while navigating suspicions from Darinkan's father and the household staff, the story spirals into a psychological cat-and-mouse game laced with suspenseful twists, emotional confrontations, and moral ambiguities.
