Before Claire could explain to the two most important men in her life, she was handcuffed by the police.

In court, Audrey's lawyer was Kane, Claire's childhood best friend, another blow to her heart.

Kane blamed everything on Claire. She was convicted of reckless driving and involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced to three years of imprisonment.

"Claire, you deserve this. People have to pay for their mistakes," he said.

When Claire first got into prison, she was beaten constantly. She was beaten in places without security cameras and had her nails pulled out She was yanked by the hair and pressed into toilets. Her back was always being kicked and it was bruised all the time.

They even broke the bones in her finger one by one.

At first, Claire didn't know why She was always stubborn and didn't cry when they hit her.

But after a while,Claire found out why they picked on her exclusively. Claire sucked up to one of the female bosses in prison. She would wash her feet, give her massages, and even do her laundry. Finally, she gained the trust of the female boss, and she told claire why.

"Girl, you poor little thing. Someone paid us to beat you."

Claire knew who it was then in that instant. Sean.

This was the man who ordered two hundred drones to spell out "I LOVE YOU" in the night sky when he was pursuing her.

He said, "Claire, I will protect you from now on."

Upon seeing their cars outside the prison gates, Claire begged the prison guard to let her leave from the back door, to avoid seeing either of their faces.

Besides, what if they were still angry with her and wanted to take their revenge?

I am nothing compared to them. I can't afford to provoke them, but at least I can hide Claire thought to herself.

In a trance, Claire remembered her confrontation with Audrey. Audrey stood in front of Claire while holding her dog and shouted, "My dog is worth 70,000 dollars. How much is your grandfather's life worth?"

When Claire was three, her mother died and her father remarried. He abandoned her so her grandfather raised her all by himself.

Her grandfather worked night and day collecting junk and empty bottles for recycling.

When Claire was in junior high, she moved to the city from the countryside and lived in a small rental apartment. Her grandfather told her that they could make more money in the city because there was more junk to collect.

But Claire knew the true reason why her grandfather wanted her to go to school in the city.

The children in the city had shiny hairpins, and Claire wanted them too.

Claire's grandfather once stood outside a small accessories store for hours, then he finally went inside to buy the expensive shiny hairpin for Claire.

When the school offered financial aid to students from poverty-stricken families, Claire's teacher Mrs. Hale helped her apply for it. That's when Claire met Kane Mrs. Hale's son, whom she asked to make friends with Claire

Kane had the best scores at school. He occasionally helped Claire with her studies. She was clever and studious, so her grades improved very fast.

Claire's grandfather was very grateful to Mrs. Hale, but he didn't have any money, so he offered to help tend her garden.
