Lia Dmitri is the second daughter of Mr Collin Dmitri,a wealthy CEO of Marc &co. conglomerate which he inherited from his father, Mr Marcus Dmitri.
Lia Dmitri unlike her sisters resembles her mother,who was supposed to be the wife of Dmitri. She found out about her pregnancy a week after Dmitri's wedding. She is of average height,a little bit chubby, has a pair of very attractive blue eyes that makes one feel like he or she is drowning in a deep blue sea.
Her hazel hair is naturally curly,plump pink lips, long eye lashes which her sisters are jealous of,thick eyebrows and a cute smile that brings out the dimple on her right cheek.
She is twenty four years old and a fresh graduate from the University of Texas, where she studied nursing.
Right now, she is living with her roommate, Vivian who owns a café down the street.
Vivian is taller, has a very attractive shape, black long and straight hair, hazel eyes, always wears red lipstick and has a very seductive smile. She is twenty seven years old and the owner of 'Delicious Break' café. She dropped out of med school due to financial instability but worked menial jobs and saved money to open up the café that they work in.
Earlier That Day,
"Lia Marie Dmitri, please be quick with whatever it is you are doing and let's move. I don't want my customers to go to Mrs Stephanie's café because of our lateness. You know that woman can be a real witch without restraint. She'll do anything to reduce my customers."
" Quit whining and help me with this zip"Lia said as she turned her back to Vivian to help her pull up the zip" and FYI, the only reason I'm answering Dmitri as my surname is because I had signed a contract with my father and it also states that I'm not allowed to change my name. My brother is exempted."
" You've told me that for like a million times. Enough of the bullshit. Let's get to the café first and then, we can delay and waste the time before the customers start coming."
" Yes ma'am"they lock the door and head for the café. "Oh right. I almost forgot."
"What is it this time?"
"My younger brother will be coming back from Canada this evening. He requested I pick him up from the airport. I don't want him nagging me so, I'm taking half a day off today to deal with his flight info."
"Of course" Vivian replied "But don't take much time in bringing him here. Make sure that you are not being followed. You don't want your daddy to find where you live now,do you?"Vivian said as she opened the door of the café. "no, I don't."
"Now, now, don't be too vexed and let's start cleaning before any customer comes. By what time is the flight landing and the most important thing, where's he gonna sleep?"
" I'll book a room for him in a hotel. Satisfied?"they enter to meet Stella and Stacy, the two full time employees. They were cleaning the café as usual. They greeted each other, talked about casual things until customers started coming in for breakfast and lunch.
Lia bid them goodbye as she was about to go to the airport to pick up her brother.
On the way, she saw someone she despised,her step mother, Claudia Dmitri. Unluckily for her, the woman saw her before she could dodge.
"Marie darling." Claudia called her and she faced her. "Claudia." Lia said through gritted teeth.
"Well that's one way to greet your mother." Claudia said taking off her glasses."You are not my mother, you sly witch. Time has not treated you well, I see. Even though you've done many plastic surgeries with my father's money, I can still see the wrinkles on your skin"
" Wench!"she raise her hand to slap Lia, but missed." You ungrateful illegitimate bastard. You're shameless just like your mother. She seduced my husband and tried to keep him trapped with her pregnancy. But I made sure that she didn't succeed. You live here right? good. Stay here forever. This is where you belong."
