In the world of elites, there's a fine line between classes. A caste system that divides everyone's status from which household and business they hold.

Everyone gathered at the spacious main hall of the house as the celebration begins. There were grand decorations and expensive cuisines. The Mira Household is divided by five houses and so a big celebration is a must.

The first house consists of the Lady Sonya, grandmother, and was with the late head master Fernand, deceased grandfather along with their middle child who chose to become a priest in a young age, sadly died to a diseased.

The second house consists of the eldest child's family: Hector Mira with his wife Jannet and their two boys named Jean and Harold.

The third house consists of the second child's family: Chadwyck Mira and his wife Riza and their daughter Winter Amullette, son-in-law Philip and their teen Peter; and their son Jared.

The fourth house consists of the fourth child's family: Henry Mira with his wife Lia and their two daughters Anastasia and Lianna, their son-in-law with the later Matthew and their young daughter Elianna; and their bachelor son Kieron.

Lastly, the house of the youngest child: the only daughter Hera Thier and her husband Symmone with their only daughter Virendra Chale Bruce and her husband Gizem Shahan Bruce.

As the five households come together, it is evidently shown how the other first four houses were displeased by Gizem's mere presence.

Despite the tension, Virendra's parent's never hated the young man but still wonder on why their only daughter agreed to marry an orphan whom her priest uncle brought home two years before he died.

As they walk in the hall, some of Virendra's cousins look at Gizem with disgust, despite that she just hold onto the man's hand like it was nothing.

"Mother, this is our family's gift from the bottom of our heart. A Korean antique set of royal court plates costs about 2.7 million dollars." Symmone speak as one of their butler's rolled in the cabinet where the set are placed.

"How pleasing, at least this son-in-law of mine knows what to bring not like a house husband's who came empty handed." grandmother mocks as she clearly made eye contact with Gizem.

"Actually mother, he's the one who chose the set, thinking in mind that this plates were once used by a queen who lived more than a hundred years. Saying it might put some luck with your health to keep you around more than a hundred as well." Symmone explained to defend his son-in-law.

Before a tension could ruin the celebration Matthew quickly butted in and presented his own gift to the elder. "Accept this gift mother, I know how much you love this British royal tea, it also came with an expensive set that costs a total of 3.2 million dollars."

Smiling in glee, the grandmother took hold of the gift as she showered the son-in-law with compliments and acknowledgements.

In the middle of the celebration, one of Virendra's cousin talked to her. Showing her a fine gentleman who wishes to meet the lady. "Virendra this is Louise from the Ramirez family. We both know you don't need a poor of excuse like Gizem for a husband." Anastasia claimed.

She just kept her mouth shut not wanting to put in a fight with her cousin. Upon Gizem hearing this just makes him want to retaliate but chose to keep silent and just walk towards them.

"Hey love." he spoke as he wrap his arms around Virendra's waist and plant a small kiss on her right cheek. Standing straight he curtly smiled at the man before extending a hand while saying, "Hi I'm Gizem, Virendra's husband." As Gizem introduced his self, they heard a snort from Anastasia before she walked away. Sighing Matthew just shook his hand and left as well not after giving a side eye to Gizem and smirking.

As the night continue, it wasn't long before the party to end. Taking in that their grandmother is already old, they have to cut it an hour before midnight. Walking outside, Virendra and Gizem just looked at the night sky filled stars. Virendra thinking how different it would be if Gizem wasn't an orphan but an elite as well, she knew everyone would be wanting him.

Staring at his wife, Gizem wasn't even thinking about the status he's in and just thankful that he was able to stay with the woman he ever wanted to stay with. Between him and the late Priest, they held a secret only between the two of them only knows. Another reason why Virendra's uncle wanted her to marry the man.

"Are you going to the company tomorrow?" Gizem asks with a hint of a small whine behind his tone.

"I have to, besides we have a lot of things to do there too." Virendra answered while trying to top herself from smiling. Her man hugging her from behind in front of the mirror inside their room.

"Can't you just stay at home? It's not like you'll run out of money that easily." Gizem offered trying to persuade Virendra.

Grinning, Virendra looked at her husband with a playful gaze before speaking, "Not every husband is like you silly."

Gizam raise a playful eyebrow and pulling his wife to his arms, "who knows maybe the most richest man here in town is same as me, cleaning the house, doing laundry and such." he playfully chuckle before Virandra laugh with him.

Turning around from their position, in a quiet voice Virendra spoke so tenderly as she held his face with both of her hands on his cheeks, closing her eyes and leaning her head on his, "Who cares about status and money, as long as I'm with you I know everything will be fine."

Smiling at her words, he couldn't stop himself from hugging her so tight. At one point he could have broke down by the town's mockery. Never did he still hoped that a woman like her would still exist nor spare a glance at him.

As they have indulge their selves on their own little bubble, inside the main house, the elders are talking about a certain person. There's a rumor going around the town that the richest man are taking over the Black Diamond Palace by the first in the morning, day after tomorrow.

With a deep sigh Lady Sonya then spoke, "make sure that everyone would still be here by tomorrow. If my guts are correct the new owner would open lots of opportunities to try to change the palace."

Everyone agreed as they look within each others. Lianna and Anastasia already thinking of ways to ruin the opportunity for Virendra incase the young lady took an interest on it if she ever hears it.
