Remington Rose Blackthorne has spent most of her life surviving something no child should have lived through. At eighteen, the American heiress leaves Massachusetts for Seoul, hoping distance will give her the one thing wealth never could-a chance to begin again. But Remington cannot outrun the night that destroyed her family. At five years old, she became the sole survivor of a brutal massacre committed by her own father, leaving her with scars etched across both her body and her memory. Quiet, guarded, and fiercely private, Remi has learned that survival is easier than trust. She keeps people at a distance, hides behind carefully constructed walls, and refuses to let anyone decide what healing should look like for her. Then Seoul brings Beom Tae-Ha and Na Hae-Soo into her life. Tae-Ha is a twenty-three-year-old chaebol heir accustomed to wealth, influence, and getting exactly what he wants. Beneath his confidence and intimidating presence, however, lies a man shaped by his own complicated family legacy-and increasingly fascinated by the girl who refuses to be impressed by him. Hae-Soo, thirty-three, lives a life far removed from theirs. Exhausted from working multiple jobs and carrying wounds of her own, she possesses a quiet resilience Remington recognizes immediately. Where Tae-Ha challenges Remi's defenses, Hae-Soo understands the exhaustion beneath them. Three lives that should never have crossed begin slowly weaving together. And for Remington, that means confronting the one thing she has feared almost as much as her past: being known. Caught between fear and desire, independence and intimacy, Remington must decide whether protecting herself still means keeping everyone away-or whether some people can see the scars and choose to stay anyway. Because healing was never about forgetting what happened. Sometimes, it is about discovering who remains beside you when the past finally catches up. (Tears on a Withered Flower Fanfiction)
