Noong mga araw ng dalisay na pag-ibig, sila ang perpektong pares. Magkaklase at laging magkasama, nagbahagi sila ng mga pangarap at pangako sa ilalim ng matandang puno—nanata na hinding-hindi maghihiwalay. Siya ay puno ng ningning at init noon, habang si Elara ang kanyang liwanag: simple, tapat, at mabuti. Payapa ang kanilang samahan, hanggang sa isang mabigat na dahilan ang nagpilit sa kanilang maghiwalay. Walang paalam o paliwanag; nawala ang ugnayan, at ang lahat ay naiwan lamang bilang alaala sa kanilang mga puso. Lumipas ang maraming taon at nagbago ang lahat. Ang lalaking kilala niya noon ay bumalik na ibang-iba—si Kaelian na ngayon, isa sa pinakamakapangyarihan, mayaman, at pinakamalamig na CEO sa industriya. Tinitingala at kinatatakutan, itinayo niya ang matibay na pader sa paligid ng sarili upang itago ang nakaraan at mga lihim. Ang pusong minsang mainit ay nagyelo na, sarado na sa sinuman, at determinado siyang panatilihing lihim ang kanyang tunay na pagkatao. Sa kabilang dako, nanatiling simple at payapa si Elara, namumuhay nang karaniwan at malayo sa ingay ng kanyang mundo. Masaya siya sa buhay, walang kaalam-alam na ang lalaking akala niya ay bahagi na lamang ng nakaraan ay isa na sa pinakakilalang tao sa bansa. Para sa kanya, si Kaelian ay alaala na lamang na tahimik niyang iniingatan. Hanggang sa pagtagpuin sila muli ng tadhana nang hindi inaasahan. Sa unang pagkikita matapos ang mahabang panahon, nababalot ng pagdududa ang kanilang mga mata. Makikilala pa kaya ng malamig na CEO ang babaeng minsang nagbigay kulay sa kanyang mundo? O mananatili siyang nakatago sa likod ng matigas na anyo, itinatago pa rin ang mga lihim na naghiwalay sa kanila noon? Ang muling pagtatagpo ay simula ng pagbukas ng nakaraan at pagsubok kung ang dating pag-ibig ay sapat pa upang gibain ang mga pader na itinayo ng panahon.
