The Rose's Fall: A Dance with Destiny

Introduction: Three years ago, Rebecca Johnson discovered her foster family took her in for her utility, intending her to protect Sara Johnson, their heiress. Unaware, Rebecca's beauty bred resentment in Sara, who manipulated her father into sending Rebecca to an older man. In self-defense, Rebecca stabbed him, leading the Johnsons to confine her to Grotom Island's asylum under the guise of mental illness. After enduring three years of hardship, Rebecca survived. Unbeknownst, the Johnsons sought to eliminate her to avoid scandal when allying with Andrew Moore. Andrew, rumored to have visited Grotom Island, mistook Rebecca for his deceased sister upon meeting her. Returning, Rebecca used this error to stay with Andrew temporarily, focused on avenging the Johnsons. Despite repeated close encounters, Andrew's probing spared her, not knowing he'd already seen through her facade. Her true self intrigued him deeply.
