The city whispered of two formidable families: the established, wealthy Stones, known for their legitimate businesses, and the notorious McGregors, whose immense wealth was matched only by their deep ties to the underworld. Though their business ventures often intertwined, direct encounters between the two clans were exceedingly rare. This delicate balance was shattered by Sue Stone, the eldest daughter, who at 25 years old, executed a shocking move that reverberated through the city's elite: she orchestrated the death of her own father, seizing control of the Stone empire.

News of Sue's audacious power grab quickly reached Ewan McGregor. At 29, and already deeply entrenched in the McGregor family's illicit affairs due to his aging father's declining health, Ewan was known for his stoic and unyielding demeanor. His father, recognizing the unprecedented shift in power and the intriguing nature of Sue's actions, explicitly urged Ewan to go and "know her." Compelled by both curiosity, his father's directive, and the pressing need to renew crucial business contracts, Ewan extended an invitation for Sue to meet him at his lavish hotel.

However, Sue, equally resolute and fiercely independent, refused, declaring she wouldn't go to anyone. Undeterred by her defiance, and understanding the stakes of their families' entangled interests, Ewan took matters into his own hands. As night fell, he made his way to the formidable Stone manor, where Sue and her family resided, ready to confront the woman who had so dramatically altered the city's power dynamics.
