In the end, they have to work out how to deal with each other to give the girls the best life they can. Mostly because of the court order forcing them to share custody against both of their wishes. Over time they both learn each other’s secrets and it becomes a very different story. Evelyn learns why Callum didn’t come for the girls earlier. And Callum learns why Evelyn wanted to adopt the girls after they became orphaned.

Wenyan read a book in which a cannon-fodder character sharing her name was a false heiress. After the true heiress assumed her position, the impostor tried to secure her place in the wealthy family by drugging the eldest son and making a done deal out of a cooked rice, only to be unmasked by the Shen Family and end up committing suicide in despair. Wenyan was furious to see such an ending. How could one not survive without the backing of a wealthy family? Hadn't the family provided her with a luxury house and countless luxury goods? Just selling those off would fetch tens of millions. She was just a hopeless case!

The eminent Jincheng Jiang Family adopted two sisters, the younger sister Jiang Fanyue was sensible and gracious, talented and beautiful, while the elder sister Jiang Zhe was ignorant, unaccomplished in anything.
