"Oh god... this is so f*cking boring," Sim Eun-Hee was stranded in the corner of the lavish dining hall, as nobody approached to talk to the crazy B*tch of the Sim family. The packed hall, all swarmed around either Master and Madam Sim or Sim Yoon-Mi, leaving Sim Eun-Hee alone.
Even the waiters didn't dare to approach her to her needs. People avoided Sim Eun-Hee's glance, as they all looked anywhere except at her. Sim Eun-Hee had a feeling that her declaration speech made at the entrance was so powerful that everyone had obeyed the Empress' orders.
"Eunhee-ssi, it's been a while right? How are you?" a familiar, sweet, and intoxicating voice pulled her out of her deep thinking. Sim Eun-Hee froze in her place and found her twin sister, Sim Yoon-Mi smiling softly at her.
"Oh Unnie, how was your visit overseas?" Sim Eun-Hee stiffly answered. She cracked a smile at Sim Yoon-Mi, whose eyes were shining like the moon in the chandelier lights.
"Yes, yes, it was a bit overwhelming yet brought more inspiration as I met more talented people across the globe. Makes me feel like the Movie Queen is just an empty title. Thinking about it, how are you?"
"I am fine Unnie, I am just starting off with little steps." Sim Eun-Hee answered, trying to avoid Sim Yoon-Mi's eyes. Sim Eun-Hee didn't know why but she couldn't take her eyes of Sim Yoon-Mi.
Sim Eun-Hee then wondered: Who could take their eyes off of the Goddess?
"Is that so~ well if you do run into any problems, you call always tell this Unnie and I will solve it for you." Sim Yoon-Mi giggled and Sim Eun-Hee felt this uneasiness around her arise across her heart.
"Thank you Unnie," Sim Eun-Hee blankly answered.
"Geez, no problem~ first thing, let's toast father and mother on their Anniversary." Sim Yoon-Mi said smiling as she brought a wine glass of champagne and handed it to Sim Eun-Hee.
"To everyone in this hall listening!" Sim Yoon-Mi's charming voice pulled everyone's eyes towards her. Sim Yoon-Mi raised her hands with her wine glass and then cheered: "This is a toast to my father and mother for their Wedding Anniversary! Cheers to their Wedding!"
"Cheers!" Everyone cried and a few laughed at Sim Yoon-Mi's announcement. The Sim family Madam and Mister nodded in agreement to this toast and chimed in.
And once again, Sim Yoon-Mi dragged people towards her, as if it was an attraction potion. And Sim Eun-Hee couldn't help but feel this... weird uneasiness in her heart as everyone like her couldn't stop staring at Sim Yoon-Mi. Her gentle voice, her soft smile, her radiant eyes, her sweet lips, and her cheery laughter drew everyone like an enchantment.
"–Ah! Excuse me!" A waiter cried as she accidentally bumped onto Sim Eun-Hee and spilled a small stain on her arm.
"Hey! Do you need walking therapy? How could you walk around without looking?" Sim Eun-Hee scolded and glared at the waiter. "If you spilled onto someone– do you plan to ruin the Sim Family dignity?"
"S-sorry! Please accept my apologies, Miss! The dining hall was too crowded today." the waiter pleaded again. "I will quickly wipe the stains!"
"Do you thinking wiping the stains will fix the issue I am trying to convey?" Sim Eun-Hee glared at the waiter. The waiter almost bowed down in fear with Sim Eun-Hee's death sentence glare. The pleas were catching everyone in the dining hall's attention. Sim Eun-Hee glanced to find her mother, Madam Sim glaring at her from a distance.
"How can a lowly servant such as I do such a thing! Please understand and forgive me!"
Now everyone's eyes were ridiculing Sim Eun-Hee's behavior. Clenching her fists, and gritting her teeth, Sim Eun-Hee sneered at the waiter.
"Forgiveness?" Sim Eun-Hee muttered. She grabbed a glass of wine from the tables and slightly tilted it over the waitress's head and the wine spilled down like a water fountain. Everyone in the entire dining hall gasped. "Well, you don't deserve any."
The waitress stood there like an idiot as she was being humiliated by Sim Eun-Hee without any mercy. Sim Eun-Hee smirked in satisfaction as she threw the wine glass to the floor and watched it being shattered.
"Clean it up. After this, you are fired."
"Y-y-y...yes miss!" the waitress held back her tears as she unwillingly squatted down on the floor and started cleaning up the mess.
Sim Eun-Hee turned around as her heeled shoes tapped onto the marbled floor as she arrogantly walked away with pride. Everyone quietly watched her quietly slipping away from the attention-seeking crowd.

Sim Eun-Hee's mood fouled as she rushed away from the unpleasant sight. Her mouth urged to vomit so she headed for the bathroom. Her head was nauseous after dealing with the reporters, crowds, waiter, and Song Jung-Ah. She wished for the day to end already!
"Well, it's not like I want my presence to be worshipped. I just don't want to be ignored by public service." Sim Eun-Hee mumbled in the bathroom stall. People weren't respecting her. This wasn't part of her plan at all. Should she act more bitchy? Demanding? Is that how people will notice her, stop being annoying, and not see her as a tool?
Or should she try to become like Sim Yoon-Mi where people try to suck up to her? Sim Eun-Hee almost choked after thinking that. No way! She would be anything but Sim Yoon-Mi!
Then she heard a few people entering the bathroom:
"Did you hear? The third miss of the Song family and the second miss of the Sim family will hold an upcoming SuperNova battle? And the World's most renowned Film Goddess will be there with the Film Emperor!"
Sim Eun-Hee who was hearing all of this, bit her lips as she inwardly cursed at Song Jung-Ah as worse as possible. 'How could this idiot reveal this to the public?! Is she worried I won't show up for the battle?!'
"I heard that the second Miss of the Sim family is terrible at acting. The third miss of the Song family is quite qualified as she competed in the Nebula Gala at the age of 16 and won 3rd place!"
"Really? The SuperNova is once an annual celebration for showcasing newbie actors into the Circle to get promoted. I heard the Eldest Miss of the Sim family– the current Movie Queen Sim Yoon-Mi debuted to get promoted."
"I wonder how the Second Miss of the Sim family will debut. I heard her temper is quite low and acting is the worst! I guess acting doesn't run in all of the Sim family blood!" the female companions giggled along.
"How come you guys didn't see what happened in the venue of the dining hall! The Second Miss humiliated and then mercilessly insulted a waitress for just bumping into her. Isn't that too harsh?"
"Really? I can't believe she is that cruel. Her existence is a contradiction to Sim Yoon Mi!" the others snorted.
Sim Eun-Hee opened the door to the bathroom stall and then walked past the ladies who were joking about her. They all glanced at Sim Eun-Hee in shock and fear after realizing that she had heard all of their giggling. A few of them even panicked.
Gritting her teeth Sim Eun-Hee bitterly told everyone: "I heard my name popping into your low profile conversations. May I know what it's about? I don't really care, but I don't want my name to be sullied by the impotent people like you."
