嫌われた令嬢、ヒルダ・フィールズは終止符を打つ

—A poignant love story born of misunderstanding: Can two souls, scarred by tragic pasts and numb to emotion, ever find true happiness?—

Hilda Fields, a countess’s daughter living in the tranquil isolation of a remote region, held a tender affection for Rudolph, a commoner boy her age.

One devastating day, the scheming of a girl obsessed with Rudolph leaves Hilda with a permanent and crippling injury to her left leg. The blame, a cruel twist of fate, falls upon the innocent Rudolph.

In the rigid world of the aristocracy, a blemished noblewoman is considered damaged goods, forever barred from marriage.

Hilda’s parents, driven by desperation, secretly coerce Rudolph into a loveless engagement, a desperate attempt to salvage their daughter’s future.

But the truth, a bitter pill, is soon revealed. A girl claiming to be Rudolph’s lover confronts Hilda, accusing her of being a thief who stole her beloved.

The crushing blow follows: Rudolph only agreed to the engagement out of a misplaced sense of responsibility for Hilda’s injury.

Heartbroken but resolute, Hilda chooses to protect Rudolph by feigning coldness, pushing him away and finally breaking their forced union.

Then, tragedy strikes again. Caught in a maelstrom of events, Hilda selflessly takes the blame for another, accepting exile from her beloved home and embarking on a new, uncertain life in a foreign land…

alone and heartbroken.
