The story
What it's about
Ziad dreams of being an actor rather than joining his father's business empire — until a sudden betrayal brings the family down and lands his father in prison. After his father dies, Ziad returns determined to recover the stolen fortune and restore the family name, using his acting talent and sharp wit to con his way to revenge. But the game turns dangerous when he falls for the daughter of his enemy.
