He was a man known for many things. He was intelligent, smart, handsome, rich, powerful, talented, charismatic, charming, famous, celebrity, et cetera, et cetera.

He was a lawyer, that everybody recognised, everyone looked up to, everyone admired.

But not everyone knew about his other side where he was broken, cold, calculative, secretive, dangerous, imposing, manipulative and a great actor. He was a fire that could freeze his opponent with one look. He was the ice that burnt her with his every smile.

Little did she know that he had a history that was more complicated than the cases he handled. And what was to become of her when she learns about his betrayal?

With the ghosts of the past coming back to haunt him, and the one presence he wasn't even anticipating to be involved in his new case, who will Neel Raivardhan choose? Will he give into his demons and chase after the lost or will he cherish what he had and give himself another chance?
