They both face dilemmas of their own in their relationships. Marcus is married to Connie Ho Tseuk-nin, but an affair with his old flame Angie Tung Ling-chi following a traumatic kidnap scare threatens to jeopardize all he has. Fu-loi secretly falls for Marcus' younger sister Rene Cheuk Yat-sum, who is torn between this fake brother and her devoted admirer Ko Tok-man. Consumed by greed and jealousy, Fu-loi eventually reveals his hidden agenda...
