Foretold destiny and forbidden attraction cross paths as preparations for Lorenzo's illegal dealings become increasingly complicated and dangerous.
Set against a backdrop of greed, betrayal, lust, revenge and love - it's a tale of deception and corruption where enemies concoct a scheme to take advantage of one another and the greed comes back to bite them all in the end.
