As Dickson builds a successful career and pursues his dreams, Linda discovers Clark's true nature—but by then, it's far too late.

A staged accident forces Rosalie to marry Dante, a wealthy heir in Port San Vito. Believing she drugged him to force the marriage and separate him from his first love, Sienna, Dante repeatedly humiliates her, even posting their intimate videos on an underground website. At her father's funeral, Rosalie learns that Dante's grandfather arranged the drugging. Heartbroken, she decides to divorce Dante and leave for Iceland in ten days.

Rosalie is subjected to forced blood draws, becomes infertile, and is framed again. Dante sends her to an underground club, where she suffers lasting harm. After ten days, she escapes alone to Iceland and slowly rebuilds her life with her mother's support. Only after Rosalie disappears does Dante uncover Sienna's lies and realize he has destroyed his innocent wife. Six months later, he finds her but cannot earn her forgiveness. When Sienna tries to run Rosalie over, Dante sacrifices his life to save her and dies at the scene. Sienna faces legal punishment. Rosalie leaves the past behind and returns to Iceland, overcoming life's hardships on her own and finding a true new beginning.
