Agnes, once celebrated among nobility as “the beautiful rose”, experiences a sweeping fall from grace when a scandal involving her family causes their downfall. Meanwhile, Bernard, a poor knight who is the fifth son of a rural lord, carries resentment from their first meeting—he saw her acting condescendingly in the social circles.

Five years later, in the midst of her family’s ruin, Agnes is reduced to poverty. Many abandon her, but Bernard steps forward. He offers her a position: serve as his maid. With this arrangement, their relationship begins in misunderstanding and tension—but as they live together, care, regret, and reconciliation slowly weave a fragile romance between a fallen noblewoman and a humble knight.
