Synopsis
Kwan Yeuk-nam (Liza Wang) is a legendary woman. After her husband committed suicide due to a business failure, she single-handedly raised her three sons to adulthood, also establishing her own business empire, Sun Hon Lik, in the process. Now ready to retire, she is prepared to pass down her empire to her three sons.
Eldest son Cho Chi-wang (Kenny Wong) is quietly pursuing Nam's adoptive daughter, Hau Yee (Tong Fei), but Yee is truly in love with Wang's younger brother, Cho Chi-yuen (Hawick Lau). When Yuen's girlfriend passes away, Yuen devotes his life and energy to his career, and Wang's position as heir to the empire is threatened. Song Chi-wah (Monica Mok), a new employee at Sun Hon Lik, seduces Wang and nearly tears his family apart. With her family and business at the brink of breaking down, Nam has no choice but to step up and formally pass down the business to Yuen.
Wah tells Wang that he is not the birth son of Nam. Disheartened at his family, the two team up to incarcerate Yuen. Just when Wang and Wah are about to overthrow Nam's reign, Yee returns just in time to save Yuen.

Casting
In August 2012, Wong announced that he was writing a 40-episode drama serial for TVB, and expressed his interest in casting Deanie Ip, Kenneth Ma, Hawick Lau, and his own managed artist, Kimmy Tong, in the lead roles.[2] In March 2013, reports confirmed that Ma was cast, replacing a role that was originally intended for Bosco Wong.[3]
In July 2013, it was reported that Liza Wang was cast as 'Kwan Yeuk-nam', the leading role in this TV drama. Edwin Siu was then cast to replace Ma, who left the cast due to scheduling conflicts.[4] Natalie Meng was also cast.[5] Wayne Lai, Selena Li, and Kate Tsui were confirmed to guest star in a few episodes.
In August 2013, it was announced that Angie Chiu had quietly joined the cast. Chiu and Wang's last major television drama together where both actors were cast in sizeable starring roles was 1978's The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre. They were both subsequently part of 1985's very concise 6-episode but celebrity-overflowed The Yang's Saga, where both were already very prominent at the time as they assumed more of a guest-starring role in the series. The pair had played goddesses instead of humans with only one scene each and no screen time together the entire time.
