When Gardenias Fall
42 에피소드
Born into a working-class family in Sheffield, Isolde Grey endured an eight-year secret marriage to support her husband Samuel Walker's career, only to be met with betrayal and systematic humiliation from her mother-in-law Margaret. After the divorce, she walked away with nothing. With the help of her mysterious neighbour Alistair Vance, she rebuilt her career and joined forces to expose Samuel's financial fraud at the board meeting, seizing back control of her life. After surviving kidnapping and a leap into the sea, Isolde underwent a complete transformation, ultimately stripping her ex-husband of his company. Through Alistair's steadfast devotion, she let go of the past and moved to Singapore to start anew. Set against the backdrop of British class conflict, this is a story of a woman consumed by marriage — from endurance to counterattack, from ruins to reinvention — as she learns to bloom again, sweeter the second time around.
