According to the rumors, he was unattainable and handsome. Moreover, he was also a legendary figure in the business industry, despite his young age.

Shirley dreamed of marrying him, but when the Faraday family came to propose the marriage to her, she found out that she was marrying Nathan, who was born an illegitimate child.
