Lily's POV:
I could never accept such disgusting things. I'd had enough of life revolving around the damned fame and fortune. My brothers, I, and even my parents were struggling in the endless whirlpool of power. I wouldn't say I was noble, but the truth was that I wouldn't say I like it and fear it. However, did I not even have the right to escape?
My mother's scornful and hateful eyes stung me, but it didn't matter. I never imagined that I could get anything from her. It was just that her plans tonight really shocked me. Could she do this for power? Was it really worth it?
She sat on the sofa, and the shadow of the furniture cast an ominous shadow on her face. Only those shrewd eyes could make her look like a living person, not a puppet. She did not move, as if she was deep in thought.
