A devastating event is ripping through the Nazawa and Spencer families, revealing a chilling and almost unbelievable conspiracy. Rising star Luna Nazawa collapsed after being thrown into jail, but she quickly realized she wasn’t a victim of bad luck, but a pawn in a money-driven game orchestrated by her own mother, Poppy Nazawa.

In the cold holding cell, Poppy appeared not as a distraught mother, but as a ruthless manipulator. Ignoring her daughter’s pleas, Poppy revealed the shocking truth: She herself had paid Bridget Forrester to manipulate medical files, making it look like Luna tampered with prescriptions, leading to her arrest.

“You think you ended up here because of bad luck? No. I made sure of it!”, Poppy stated cruelly.

The Child is the Key to Power

The purpose of this betrayal was sickening: Luna’s unborn child is the key for Poppy to unlock the door to the Spencer dynasty.

Poppy needed a scandal big enough for Bill Spencer to feel responsible and get involved. “Bill will shower you with money, sympathy, protection… but only if I control the narrative,” she declared. To Poppy, Bill doesn’t just write checks; he signs over legacies—and the Spencer bloodline in Luna’s womb is worth more than any trust fund.

The Betrayer’s Ultimatum

In a dramatic moment, Poppy delivered a cold-blooded ultimatum.

If Luna cooperates and follows her mother’s script, she will be released with unimaginable money and power. But if Luna dares to fight back and reveal the truth, Poppy will “bury” her: “The Spencers will distance themselves, and you’ll be raising that baby in a halfway house”. She then delivered the heartbreaking line: “You want to be a hero, or a mother?”.

Immediately after the jail visit, Poppy went straight to Bill Spencer, using a fabricated sonogram image to confirm the news, planting the seed of responsibility in the billionaire’s mind. Bill, struck by his pride and instinct to protect family, made a fatal promise: “If that baby’s mine or my blood, I’ll protect them!”

Luna was left in the cell, tormented by the choice: either become her mother’s accomplice, or lose everything. Her gift—her child—had become the most powerful weapon against her, in a power struggle she never asked to join.
