Soft Betrayal

Eiza Hartwell is a twenty-two years old criminology graduate struggling to survive after losing her job and living under the shadow of her family's ruined reputation.
When she accidentally calls a billionaire's private number instead of a job hotline, she unknowingly steps into the world of Aarons International Holdings and catches the attention of cold, calculating CEO Blarian Aarons.

Desperate for a fresh start, Eiza is offered a contract position assisting a high profile murder investigation led by lawyer Lucas Bennett, a childhood friend she once lost touch with. She gets pulled her into a dangerous case involving the death of pop star Reina Gray and the arrest of Aiden Aarons, Blarian's younger brother.
As Eiza works alongside Lucas, she begins uncovering hidden truths buried beneath wealth, power, and influence. At the same time, she finds herself drawn to Blarian despite his icy personality and controlling nature.

Unknown to her, Blarian's interest in her is rooted in revenge, he once believed her father was responsible for his mother's death.

As the investigation deepens, friendships are strained, loyalties are tested. Everything reaches breaking point when Aiden is convicted for a crime he did not commit.

Forced to confront betrayal, loss, and deception, Eiza joins Lucas and Blarian in reopening the case.

Together, they uncover a web of lies that not only clears Aiden's name but also exposes the truth behind both families' tragedies. But when Eiza discovers Blarian's original intentions were never pure, she walks away from him, even though he had fallen deeply in love with her and abandoned his revenge long ago.

In the end, truth prevails, justice is restored, and healing slowly begins.

But, Blarian must prove, through time and action, that his love is real.
