Atty. Laurent De Salvo was used to living in peace-a man of few words. But his peace was constantly shattered by Kali Sumatra, a loud, perky, and spoiled woman who seemed obsessed with him. Her relentless pursuit and their stark differences made her everything he hated in a woman. One night, fed up with her constant presence, Laurent bluntly told Kali to vanish. To his astonishment, she did. The next morning, Kali was missing, and no one knew where she was. The last person seen with her was Laurent, making him the prime suspect in her disappearance. As accusations and charges mount against him, Laurent must navigate a legal and social minefield to clear his name. But the question remains... where is Kali?

Detective Yves De Salvo thought it was just another routine case when he was assigned to reinvestigate the death of a prominent businessman. Originally ruled a suicide, the case was reopened under suspicions of murder. As Yves meticulously reviews the evidence, he uncovers a chilling realization: the crime scene and circumstances mirror the plot of a crime novel he read years ago. The novel's author, Hazel Beltran, is a celebrated writer whose dark and intricate stories have captivated readers worldwide. Coincidentally, she is also the stepdaughter and sole heir of the deceased tycoon. But what strikes Yves even more is the shocking discovery that Hazel is the same girl he fell in love with one unforgettable summer years ago-a love he thought he'd never experience again. As Yves scrutinizes Hazel's life, her relationship with her stepfather, and the eerie similarities between her fiction and reality, questions begin to arise. Is Hazel the brilliant but twisted mastermind behind the crime, or is she the victim of a sinister frame-up? With his feelings for Hazel complicating his judgment, Yves finds himself stuck in a Lavender Haze.

So, when luck pulled a trick on her poor heart, she didn't hesitate to take advantage of the opportunity.

She had made a lot of progress. But, why did she go back to being seated in the farthest row? Why did she go back to being just a mere fan? After everything they vowed, why did she go back to being a stranger in the midst of the crowd?
