Amnesiac monarch raises the orphan he saved, unaware she'll trade him for a crown.
During a state visit, King Carl of Monclair shields an orphan named Jessica from disaster, the trauma wiping away every memory of his throne. He awakens as a nameless laborer and spends twenty years raising her in poverty, the only father she has ever known. As a young woman, Jessica seizes a prince's proposal as her ladder to nobility and coldly casts aside the exhausted man who sacrificed everything for her. Neither realizes the destitute parent she rejects is the sovereign the kingdom has spent decades searching for.
