Justin Alastair, Duke of Avon, is known for his heartlessness, “devil-like” character and debaucherous lifestyle. Once, late at night, just in the street, he accidentally, for the sake of fun and old revenge, buys a young page who is thus escaping from his cruel guardian brother. But this accidental venture becomes fateful. It will tear off the veil from some old secrets, give someone unexpected happiness, and send someone a well-deserved punishment.
