The story follows several characters whose lives are connected. Hilda and Rupert are a married couple with a stable life. Hilda’s sister, Morgan, is unhappy after leaving her husband, Tallis. Meanwhile, Julius, a clever and manipulative man, plays games with people’s emotions.

Julius makes a bet with himself to test how easily he can destroy a strong relationship. He targets Rupert and Morgan, setting events in motion that cause misunderstandings, heartbreak, and betrayal.

As the characters struggle with love, trust, and morality, they are forced to question their own beliefs and choices.
