Desperate and drunk, she asks Dallas to marry her. He's her best friend's father and the Hyde family's worst enemy, and he agrees. What Eliza doesn't know is that Dallas has been waiting for her for years. Once they're married he breaks the Hydes' hold on her, strips Anson of his power, buys her mansions, and when Claudine uses mango to poison her, he's the one who saves her. With him behind her, Eliza goes from victim to a confident career woman. Then Anson kidnaps her, and Dallas dives into an icy river to bring her back, telling her it was never a deal. It was always love.
