And so, Sydney and Wesley came to know each other.

Had Wesley not rescued her that night, Sydney would have faced a brutal assault from those thugs.

Wesley, in his early twenties, was strikingly handsome and charismatic. His every gesture exuded charm and confidence, making him incredibly attractive.

He had a witty and humorous way about him, which gradually won Sydney over. Wesley helped her heal from past wounds, and they became close friends. Whenever Sydney faced trouble, Wesley was always there to stand up for her. Wesley's mother, Rebecca, took a great liking to Sydney. She often chatted with her and learned about Sydney's past-she had a child before, but he had died. Despite this, Rebecca hoped Sydney would marry Wesley.

At that time, Wesley was still immature, but Rebecca believed that Sydney could provide the stability he needed and would make a wonderful wife.

Sydney had fallen in love with Wesley, and assumed that he loved her in return. She told Rebecca, "If Wesley is willing, I have no objections."

She thought the Spencers were generous and open-minded, not concerned with her past. She believed she would not be mistreated in their family.

Sydney was young and perhaps a bit naïve, deeply wounded by Geoffrey. Wesley had saved her, brought her out of her sorrows, and given her hope, so she truly wanted to marry him. She was ready to tie the knot right away, provided Wesley was willing. In the end, Wesley did agree to marry her, and Sydney wed him before finishing college.
