She had overheard the orphanage director mention that on a day blanketed with heavy snowfall, they found her-then just a six-year-old-lying at the door, burning with fever.

After being rushed to the hospital for treatment, her memories turned foggy, lost to the passage of time.

As Isabel strolled through the garden, lost in her thoughts, she absentmindedly plucked a flower from its

Suddenly, the sharp voice of a maid broke through her daydream.

"Ms. Zimmerman! You're in big trouble! That's Mr. Xander's favorite flower! We take great care of it- losing even a single petal pains us. And now, you've ripped the whole bloom off! You're in for it!" Isabel glanced down at the flower in her hand. While she wasn't an expert on blooms, she could tell this particular kind was special.

Isabel had a talent for reading people; Rachel may seem like a refined woman, but her cunning rivaled that of any schemer.

Instead, she felt a twinge of guilt for damaging something he cherished. Honestly, if someone had ruined her favorite item, she would surely react with fury.
