Introduction

Brother and sister Ban Siew and Chye Hoon work at a resort hotel owned by their father, in Penang, Malaysia. Both enjoy and are dedicated to their work, but their personal lives are another story.

Ban Siew's Story

Ban Siew struggles in a stormy marriage to Gaik Choo, plagued by his wife's coldness and infidelities. His hopes to salvage their tattered union quickly dim. Heartbroken and humiliated, he is faced with a life-changing decision.

Chye Hoon's Story

Meanwhile, Chye Hoon is married to Jin Tek, an up-and-coming executive in the property-development business. Although not completely unhappy in her marriage, Chye Hoon feels neglected and lonely as her husband relentlessly pursues his career.

When she meets a handsome young man named Boo Hong in the hotel restaurant that she managed, their attraction is undeniable. Torn between two worlds, Chye Hoon must make a choice that will inevitably bring heartbreak and pain.

Her husband, oblivious to his wife's struggles, continues his meteoric rise in real estate, unaware that a clash with squatters may soon bring unexpected and deadly consequences to his family.
