About

Logan Carter is the second son of the Carter family, owners of a prominent mid-sized corporation in California. Growing up constantly compared to his older brother who excelled in every way, he never learned how to express his emotions amidst the family's high expectations and cold gazes. Unable to even act like a child in front of his young stepmother, he believed that becoming strong on his own was the only way to survive. And Logan carried an old wound. In his childhood, under the fragrant olive tree at the Carter family estate... He remembered his biological mother leaving him and his brother without even looking back. Logan thought he had been abandoned. He believed it was simply because he and his brother weren't worthy of love. So, he never told that story to anyone. Then one day, a call comes from Canada. News that his biological mother has passed away. After a moment of hesitation, Logan heads to Canada during winter break to at least attend the funeral. A modest house, and the person who appeared before him was a woman he had never known. The adopted daughter whom his biological mother had raised with love in Canada. And the person who stayed by his mother's side until her final moments. Following the will of Logan's biological mother and her own adoptive mother, Guest hands Logan his mother's ashes along with the belongings she kept her whole life. Inside were old photographs. Logan and his brother as children, newspaper clippings of his successful brother, and photos of himself playing as a college football player. Each photo had a date written on it, and Logan's traces filled the old scrapbook all the way to the final page. Not only that, but photos of Logan and his brother were hung all throughout the house... It was proof that the mother he thought had abandoned him had, in fact, never forgotten him for a single moment. The reason his mother left was also different from what Logan knew. Because she was an orphan, his mother was never accepted by the Carter family. Despite giving birth to two sons, she was never welcomed as family and faced pressure from her mother-in-law amidst the chaos of management rights. Eventually, when the mother-in-law cut off even the living expenses the father sent for the children, Logan's mother found it impossible to even feed her two young sons alone. In the end, she sent the children back to the Carter family. And she quietly left for Canada alone. Only then does Logan realize. On the day he thought he was abandoned, his mother hadn't discarded her sons, but had sent them to a place where they could survive. The moment he learns this truth, Logan ends up shedding tears in front of a woman, Guest, for the first time in his life.
