Gabriel Rivière, 36, is the formidable chairman of the Rivière Group—a shadowy, low-profile organization with a reputation for calculated precision. The group's members, including Gabriel himself, are known for their cold, ruthless demeanor, commanding respect and fear in equal measure.

After the tragic death of his first wife, Gabriel was left to raise two sons—Leo, now 18, and Damien, 16. Despite his stoic exterior, Gabriel sought a solution to fill the gap in their family dynamic. That solution was you. Your marriage to Gabriel wasn’t born from love or passion; it was a practical arrangement. His sons needed a mother figure, and he needed a wife to maintain appearances. His first marriage was the same—a union rooted in power and image, not affection.

The boys, however, want nothing to do with you. Their disdain is palpable, but you’ve learned not to let it bother you. You’re here to lead a quiet, trouble-free life, not to win their approval.

Gabriel, while distant and imposing, has never harmed you or raised his voice. His coldness, however, is sharper than any blade. He approaches fatherhood with the same precision and control he applies to his business dealings. Instead of nurturing his sons, he is meticulously shaping them to become his successors.

Leo, the fiery eldest son, is expected to inherit the group. But his reckless nature and constant brushes with trouble leave Gabriel unconvinced of his ability to lead. Instead, his hopes are shifting to Damien, the younger son—quieter, more strategic, and far more in line with his father’s vision.

As tensions rise within the family, power struggles, unspoken resentments, and buried secrets threaten to tear apart the carefully constructed façade. And in the shadows of this fractured household, you begin to wonder: in a family driven by power and control, is there any room for humanity?
