The story begins with Nick Cheung's (Cho Long Yee Sung) in-show girlfriend Gigi Leung returning from Kenya after volunteering with LifeForce. Nick Cheung had been asked by Gigi many times to accompany her to Kenya and help out but he's been too busy in Hong Kong treating wealthy people. Nick Cheung takes Gigi out to dinner and talk of how beautiful it was in Kenya and how they should go there some time after their marriage. However, fate strikes them as Gigi is run over by a car after their dinner trying to pick up a keyring that Nick had given to her.
After the incident, Nick Cheung visits Kenya because of Gigi's influence. On his way to the LifeForce camp, he encounters a pregnant woman in trouble who is about to give birth to a baby boy. Nick Cheung stops and helps this woman, the baby boy coming to earth touches him and he decides to become an obstetrician so he can help give birth to more babies.
Eight years later, Nick has a clinic opened to serve the neighbours in that area, sometimes even for free. He has changed completely from being competitive and greedy for power to helpful and cheerful. The story continues on about how they (him and his friends) help out at LifeForce.
His life changes when Sonija comes along. Sonija is in love with Nick but Nick still cannot forget Gigi. After many things (including a one night stand) Sonija and Nick finally get together and they marry. But tragedy strikes again when Sonija is diagnosed with womb cancer while she is pregnant. The doctors advise her to get rid of the baby and cut the tumor, but she refuses. Instead, she waits till the baby is ready to be born and then does surgery.
The surgery ends tragically and Sonija is now in a coma. Nick continues to visit her with their daughter every day at the same time. After persistent waiting, she awakes and the family travels to Kenya.
