In the cutthroat concrete jungle of New York's stock market world, Tess McGill, a fiercely determined and industrious secretary, finds herself shackled to a desk as she turns 30. Despite her ambition to ascend the corporate ladder, her reality remains steeped in administrative tasks, until fate introduces her to Katherine Parker, her new boss who seems open to Tess's innovative ideas. However, the shimmering promise of collaboration quickly tarnishes when Katherine, off on a holiday that culminates in a broken leg, reveals plans to usurp Tess's groundbreaking idea - a scheme to rescue a significant company from the clutches of a foreign takeover. Tess's world further spirals when she uncovers her boyfriend's infidelity, igniting a fire within her to take control of her destiny. Seizing the opportunity presented by Katherine's absence, Tess boldly ventures into the business battlefield herself, taking her idea directly to the frontlines.
