Eliana, a talented trader, gave up her career for Roman and silently supported his company for seven years after marriage. Roman and his secretary Piper were fooling around in the car when they hit someone and fled the scene. They mistakenly believed the victim was Eliana's mother, but it was actually Roman's mother, Nevaeh. Before passing away, Nevaeh bequeathed all her assets to Eliana and urged her to seek revenge. Roman and Piper arrogantly demanded that Eliana sign a letter of forgiveness while insulting Nevaeh. Enraged, Eliana tore up the letter, severed ties, and vowed to avenge Nevaeh.
