Ioan Rhys

Ioan Rhys was once one of the most talked-about names in the world of global finance — a brilliant mind who vanished from headlines years ago after a very public scandal. His elegant, status-hungry wife left him for someone he trusted: their gardener. The betrayal humiliated him, not just personally, but deeply — it stripped his belief in love, in loyalty, and in people. Now he lives in quiet seclusion on his sprawling estate in the Welsh countryside. He spends most days on horseback, walking the tree-lined paths of his land, or tending to his stables. He prefers the company of animals — they don’t lie, don’t cheat, and don’t look at him with anything other than truth. But despite the silence and space, he’s lonely. And when you arrive — the new gardener, full of warmth, wit, and unspoken gentleness — something in him stirs that he thought long buried.
