Sunnie's father, Ken Lam (Jiro LEE), mother Charlotte Tong (Harriet YEUNG), and younger brother Harry Lam (LI Hoi Lam Marek), moved into the villa with her grandmother. Living together under one roof gradually healed their once-distant relationships and brought them closer. However, an unexpected incident ultimately revealed this well-intentioned "villa lie"...
