"Adam founded the 'Dumb Girl Rescue Foundation' for his twin sister. His sister was born less intelligent than others, and later... due to some accidents, his sister died.

"That car accident was orchestrated by Adam's former fiancée, who wanted his life. But in the last moment, she realized she had fallen in love with him and regretted her actions..."
Emily's expression remained calm, but Amelia Clarke could see, beneath that calm façade, the signs of a person who had weathered many storms.
It seemed that anyone who could talk about their past with such equanimity must have gone through great hardships.
