After a devastating accident left her wheelchair-bound, she watches in despair as her daughter makes her debut in society, knowing her disability renders her unable to be the mother her child deserves. Enter Mr Wang. The Chinese doctor’s offer to help her walk again sparks cautious hope. What she doesn't expect is that his presence will awaken something even deeper in her heart.
She healed his heart
Wang has spent years using his knowledge of medicine to mend bodies and spirits. Haunted by loss, his life purpose is to help others. But his own past remains an unhealed wound. When he meets the spirited yet sorrowful Esther, her resilience and courage stir something he thought long dead. As he works to restore her mobility, their connection grows, kindling an undeniable attraction.
