Storyline

The Secret

Kim is introduced as the youngest daughter of Viktoria and Thomas Wolf. She appears to be a little trouble maker as she soon becomes friends with Rebecca von Lahnstein and is after the same glamorous lifestyle as the young countess. After Kim had no interest in finishing school, she eventually takes a job as a placement student at Lahnstein Enterprises and finds a rival in Jessica Stiehl for the job as personal assistant of Tanja von Lahnstein. With her contacts to the Lahnstein family, Kim soon becomes interested in Ansgar von Lahnstein. She looks up to him and Ansgar seems to see something in Kim. As he tries to use her in his vendetta against his ex-wife Tanja, Kim shows that she isn't manipulable. Ansgar is impressed and helps Kim as she's caught with stolen clothes. Viktoria and Thomas find out about the friendship Kim is having with Ansgar and they are both afraid that it could lead to something more. Specially Viktoria wants to stop Ansgar's contact to Kim and has a talk with him. Nobody knows that Viktoria is also afraid of an old secret coming out. She once had a one-night-stand with Ansgar and is the biological father of Kim. As Ansgar is setting the Lahnstein forests on fire to destroy Lahnstein Enterprises, Kim is hiding in the woods after a fight with Viktoria. The Lahnsteins try to help Thomas rescue Kim from the fire, but they return to Viktoria without her. As Viktoria begins to believe that her daughter is dead, Ansgar rescues Kim and brings her out of the burning forest. She starts to develop a crush on Ansgar, which much to Viktoria's concern brings them closer together. Kim can bring Ansgar to help her learn a few tricks to survive in the hard world of business and fight her rival Jessica. Ansgar's softer side impresses Kim and when she learns that he has become a father again, but isn't allowed to see his son, Kim not only comforts him, but also defends him against Tanja, which causes her the job as her assistant. Out of a lie she told her parents, Kim then gets a job as Ansgar's personal assistant. As they start to grow even closer and share a kiss, a shocked Viktoria walks in on them together with Thomas. The duo want to stop Kim from seeing Ansgar; sending her to boarding school, but Kim, after the kiss, believes that she and Ansgar love each other and wants him to run away with her. Ansgar realizes that he went to far and tells Kim that he really likes her, but that's all. Hurt and all alone, Kim decides to skip town and visiting a friend for a while. Viktoria suffers under the bad relationship to her daughter and tries to apologize to Kim for the boarding school idea. Thomas and Viktoria soon learn that Kim spend only a short visit on her friend and is now missing. Viktoria asks Ansgar for help, who admits that Kim wanted to run away with him. Thomas and Viktoria get the shock of their lives, when the police is calling about a dead teenage girl, who committed suicide and fits the description of Kim. Even though the girl turns out not to be Kim, Viktoria and Thomas are very concerned about their daughter. As Thomas is willing to even deal with Ansgar's realtionship with Kim, Viktoria has to leave to hold herself together. Elisabeth von Lahnstein finds her in tears and Viktoria lets her in on her darkest secret and gives her the reason why Kim can't love Ansgar - because he's her father.^[2]
