Married for Inheritance-Divorced for Freedom

On a quiet evening in the bustling city of Seoul, six-year-old Ethan Wright's life was forever changed when his estranged aunt, the enigmatic and vindictive Charmaine whom he called Mom, swooped into his school and abducted him under the cover of darkness on a stormy day. Unbeknownst to Ethan, Charmaine harboured a deep- seated grudge against his mother, Hannah, who had inherited their grandfather's successful company instead of her.

As Ethan found himself trapped in Charmaine's mother's Naomi, isolated mansion, he uncovered the dark secrets that had torn their family apart. Charmaine's bitterness and resentment towards Hannah ran deep, stemming from a long-forgotten betrayal that haunted the shadows of their shared past. Despite his fear and confusion, Ethan vowed to uncover the truth behind his Mom motives and find a way to escape her clutches. He discovered that she hated his mom because she was the granddaughter her Grandfather loved and gave her everything, while Charmaine and her mother received nothing. She was also betrothed and married the man of her grandfather's choice, the handsome Darrian, his father. When his grandmother Naomi told him all the truths, as she called them, he was afraid of his mom, Charmaine, and his grandma.

In the following weeks, his resolve was tested as he navigated the treacherous waters of his captivity. Every day, he was given food and some freedom in the villa. He was not allowed to venture anywhere near the fence. Chains of family and twisted loyalties bound him. Ethan found unexpected allies in Naomi's servants, who whispered of a hidden path to freedom and redemption. Amidst the suffocating walls of the mansion, Ethan's spirit refused to be broken, fueled by memories of his mother Hannah's unwavering love and the promise of a brighter tomorrow. He could only think of his Father, loving mom and affectionate siblings. The thought kept him from losing hope of seeing them again. He could not imagine why he felt the evil Charmaine could have been his mothernoveldrama

Each night, the cook's son kept him company. One night, Ethan spoke with his new friend Isaac. Isaac promised him, "I will lead you to freedom, but we must wait on the full moon". That night came when the moon hung high in the night sky, casting a silvery glow over the mansion where Ethan was held captive by his grandma, Naomi. Determined to break free from her clutches and uncover the truth behind her vengeful schemes, Ethan knew the time had come for his escape.

As the mansion slumbered in eerie silence, Ethan carefully picked the lock of his room with a makeshift tool his friend had fashioned from a stray piece of metal. With each click of the tumblers, his heart raced with fear and exhilaration. This was his chance to defy fate and seize control of his destiny and freedom at last.

Silent as a shadow, Ethan's little feet slipped out into the darkened corridors, his senses keen and alert to every creak of the floorboards and whisper of the wind. Guided by the faint moonlight filtering through the windows, he navigated the labyrinthine halls of the mansion and the eyes of Naomi's loyal servants.

As he reached the grand foyer, a sudden noise from the entrance hall made his heart skip a beat. Naomi stood there, her cold eyes fixed on him with a calculating glare. In a heart-stopping moment, time seemed to stand still as they locked gazes, each daring the other to make a move.

But in a swift and daring manoeuvre, Ethan dashed past Naomi, his heart pounding as he raced towards the towering oak doors leading to the outside world. With a burst of adrenaline-fueled determination, he flung them open and stumbled out into the cool night air, his breath coming in ragged gasps as he ran towards the freedom that beckoned on the horizon. Naomi knew that the little boy would soon return.

As the mansion faded into the distance behind him, Ethan knew that his journey was far from over. But in that moment of exhilarating escape, he felt the first stirrings of hope and the unwavering resolve to uncover the hidden secrets and shadows of betrayal.

As the sun set on his tumultuous journey, Ethan emerged not as a boy lost in the shadows of the path but as a hero reborn in the light of freedom.

As the tangled threads of fate continued to weave a tapestry of secrets and revelations, Charmaine, consumed by envy and ambition, stumbled upon a truth that would shatter the fragile peace of their family forever. In a twist of fate that defied all expectations, she discovered that Lady Rose, the mysterious and revered figure in Darrian's life, was none other than her step-sister, Hannah Samantha. This connection would set in motion a chain of events with far-reaching consequences.

With a heart consumed by bitterness and a mind clouded by jealousy, Charmaine set out to confront Hannah Samantha in the secluded office, where she drew fantastic designs with a grace and beauty that only deepened Charmaine's sense of inadequacy and resentment. As the two women stood face to face, a storm of emotions raged between them, their shared history of betrayal and longing simmering beneath the surface like a dormant volcano, ready to erupt.

In a moment of reckoning and revelation, Hannah Samantha met Charmaine's gaze with eyes filled with anger and sadness, her voice trembling with the weight of untold truths. With a quiet strength born of resilience and forgiveness, she offered Charmaine a hand of forgiveness. She asked Charmaine for her son. Charmaine was still deceitful. She told Hannah. "I don't know where Mom is keeping Ethan." She felt the walls of resentment and envy crumble, giving way to a new understanding of the power of reconciliation.

With everything happening so fast, Hannah knew that the acceptance she tried to show Hannah would be short-lived because she still had not found her beloved Ethan. Until she found her beloved son, she will have no peace.

On the other hand with Isaac's help, Ethan delved deeper into the secrets of his family's past and uncovered a startling revelation that shook the foundations of everything he thought he knew. Through a faded journal hidden in the depths of Hannah's old belongings at his grandfather's house, he discovered the harrowing truth of her escape from the clutches of her evil stepmother and wicked stepsister at the time of his birth.

In the pages of the journal, Hannah chronicled the dark and twisted events that had unfolded in the days leading up to Ethan's arrival into the world. She recounted the torment and cruelty she had endured at the hands of her stepmother, a ruthless woman consumed by jealousy and rage, and her stepsister, an evil force determined to usurp Hannah's rightful place in their family's legacy. He read of Charmaine's betrayal and how Hannah was left to fend for her little family because they declared her dead. The family company was now owned by his grandfather and his family.
