“Katherine Hart had everything anyone could envy-a prestigious family, a perfect fiancé, and a wedding that was set to be the event of the year. Until the night of her engagement banquet, when her world shattered in an instant. Her fiancé, Soron, took the ring off her finger in front of everyone: "I've fallen in love with someone else. She's pregnant." Then the reporters swarmed in, shoving microphones into her face: "You've been pretending to be the Hart family's daughter for thirteen years. What do you have to say?" "The real Hart heiress is Joanna Johnson. You stole her life." Overnight, Katherine fell from grace into hell. Only then did she learn that she was nothing but a mistake-a baby sent to the wrong family by the orphanage-while the real heiress had been struggling out in the world all along. She fled in a panic, only to be struck by a car in the street. When she opened her eyes again-she had gone back four years. Nothing had happened yet. She hadn't met Soron. Joanna hadn't been found. She was still the "only daughter of the Hart family," loved by everyone. But this time, Katherine had no intention of taking what wasn't hers. She sought out Joanna on her own and returned the truth, the identity, the family-one by one. Then she changed her name, cut her hair short, got on a beat-up bicycle, and vanished from everyone's life. She thought that was the end. She thought that as long as she stayed far enough away, everyone else could be happy.She thought she was repaying a debt, never knowing that her leaving was the greatest debt everyone owed her. She was wrong. The fiancé who had once coldly said "I've fallen in love with someone else" began having the same dream over and over. In it, there was a woman who smiled like sunshine and held his hand, saying, "Dinner's on me." He couldn't see her face, but every time he woke up, it felt like his heart was being torn apart. Oscar, the ambitious, calculating corporate executive who was always scheming, began making choices around her that he couldn't explain. He was clearly the most dangerous person, yet he was the first to reach out when she was about to fall. He said, "I feel like I'm atoning for something, but I can't remember what."”
