What this short drama is about
Married ten years to football star Ethan Hayes, Ava endures his affairs until he brings mistress Sadie into her tattoo studio. She divorces him and rebuilds her life, becoming a renowned tattoo artist married to club owner Adrian Cole, with a son named Leo. When Ethan returns years later, he's convinced Leo is his. But as a paternity test looms and old secrets surface, Ava must decide how far she'll go to protect the family she's built—and what Ethan will do when the truth comes out.
