On their wedding day, Cordelia's parents drove drunk, causing Benedict to lose his entire family. The wedding became a funeral, and his beloved became his enemy. Filled with guilt, Cordelia's parents died in prison. To fulfill their dying wish and to atone for their sins, Cordelia stayed by Benedict's side for five years, enduring all the torment he inflicted upon her. When the five years were up, it all ended in regret. After losing her, Benedict was consumed by grief. Five years later, he saw a woman in a hospital who looked just like Cordelia, only to discover she hadn't died back then. Instead, she had gone abroad with her childhood friend, Luke. But by then, Cordelia had already forgotten all about Benedict.
