The world is like a tightly-knit village, where the fates of people from different backgrounds are intertwined. Lester, born into a once-powerful French aristocratic family, is burdened with the mission of uncovering the family's secrets and restoring its glory in the face of its decline. During a trip to Rome, he unexpectedly encounters Alice, from a new German business family, and their destinies are closely linked from then on. In this ancient and charming city, they became involved in a dispute over an antique shop, and then set off together on an adventure full of unknowns and dangers.
