Unlocking Her Innocence

Ava was in a car accident on Christmas Day and lost her best friend. She was accused of being responsible for the crash despite her lost memory of that confusing night. After serving years of prison time, she freezes up in shock in the conference room of her new workplace. The man who controls the place is Vito, whom Ava used to admire. Vito is also the brother of her late best friend. Ava assumes he must hate her so much that he would want to kill her, not work with her. But he steals a kiss from her and asks her to plan this year's Christmas party. What is he thinking?
