"Look into my eyes and say you never knew me." Vincent's voice was laced with pain as he spoke. And without a single change in her facial expression, Elizabeth went ahead to say it. "I can never know a pig in human form." She didn't spare the words that pierced through his heart.

And as though that was not enough, he caught his girlfriend cheating on him publicly with the school's billionaire prince, Richard, swearing that she never knew him. Vincent had his heart broken and when he thought that it was all over, fate beamed a bright light on him. It turned out that his father had seen the future and left the biggest consortium in the city in his name. He was no longer the poor student who would beg and do odd jobs just for a meal, he was now the most powerful person in the city. And all his enemies crumbling on their knees.

Will I emerge victorious, or will the combined might of my enemies overwhelm me? Only time holds the answer. ............................................................................
