But when his hidden power begins to shine, his noble half-brother and father try to execute him in public to bury the truth. At death's door, the pendant sealing his divine power cracks under the strain, summoning Zeus's furious Divine Envoy to descend and judge the empire. In an instant, every arrogant noble falls to their knees, begging for mercy.

Kidnapped as a child, CEO Ryan Luke finally finds his birth parents twenty three years later, and instead of walking in as the head of a company, he comes home posing as a broke nobody. He wants to know if what's waiting for him is real.

Moved by their quiet, unconditional welcome, Ryan stays in disguise and quietly starts rebuilding his younger brother's confidence and prospects, while working behind the scenes to expose the relatives circling the family for what they can get. When the truth finally comes out at a public demolition meeting, he reveals exactly who he is, moves his parents and brother into a home worthy of them, and the two brothers celebrate a joint wedding as the family, finally whole, comes together.
