Now, after more than a decade behind bars, Devon walks free; older, harder, and carrying the kind of silence only prison can carve into a man.

Now, he had a new name, and a new fate, and now, he could get his revenge.

In a quiet coastal town, a man named Adrian lived a modest life as a fisherman, keeping to himself and never speaking of his past. Beneath his simple clothes and weathered hands was a hidden truth—he was the heir to a vast fortune and a powerful family empire.

In doing so, he found a purpose far greater than running—he found a way to merge the man he had become with the legacy he had left behind.
