This episode showcases the protagonist Sophia (Eliza Freeman) facing a family inheritance crisis and a forced marriage dilemma. In a bar, a mysterious man named Gregory proposes marriage to Sophia, using "reclaiming her father's company" as bait, but Sophia sternly rejects him. Afterwards, Sophia sneaks into her father Pendleton's office to search for his will, attempting to confirm her inheritance rights, only to be caught by her father on the spot. A heated argument erupts between father and daughter, with Pendleton explicitly stating he will leave Sophia nothing and forcing her to marry Gregory. Sophia realizes her father not only doesn't care about her happiness but also projects his resentment towards her mother onto her.
