My name is Isadora Veltman.I am the daughter of the tycoon Henry Veltman and heir to his property.As far as I know,one day my father will choose a man for me to marry,something that I am not quite happy with.Well,that day is not too far as I am turning eighteen this summer.My father is a srict man and always wants me to do as he says without questioning his decisions.Today is one of my luckiest day as I am going to join the university for my higher education.With that in my mind,I woke up and headed to the bathroom to prepare for this day.I had been leaving in this castle like a prisoner the whole Fall Season.I am glad I'll have a little freedom at school.Turning away from the disturbing thoughts,I wrapped the towel around my skinny body and headed towards the bathroom.A hot shower awaited me,probably prepared by the maids. I slid my body under the warm water and stayed there for almost half an hour enjoying the warm water.When I thought I was clean,I left the tab and headed to my closet.The clothes in my closet weren't that fancy as most of you might probably think.A tycoon's daughter wearing dresses and sorts was not a site to gawk at,all thanks to my mother.She would always choose the clothes that I was to wear throughout my childhood and even when I call myself an "adult".I picked one dress that I loved.It was V-shaped at the neckline and revealed my curves perfectly giving me the feeling I always wanted.Though I could not figure out what this feeling was.The dress had been gifted to me by my best friend,Cate,during my sixteenth birthday.Though my mother did not like it,she had no choice but to consent to it.
When I was done with my hair and all the lady staff,I desceded down the grand,spiral staircase to join my family for breakfast.From afar,I could see my mother chatting happily with father and Luke,an adapted child whom I used to visit at the children,s home.After my mother realised that I was fond of him,he urged father to adopt him into the family.He is always funny and cute too.I never get bored when I'm with him.
I got closer at the dining room putting on a smile on my face as always.My father stopped talking and turned his attention towards me.My mother followed his line of sight and immediately frowned the moment she saw me.I stared back at her confused,a thousand questions clearly written on my face.That's when I realised that she was looking at my dress.My father looked away as quickly as he had looked earlier.
"How many times are we going to talk about this darling?"She asked softly yet anger was evident in her voice."I...I just ...I...." "It's okay Isa,just sit down and have your breakfast before your mother spoils your mood this great day."My father cut me short saving me from an explanation I could not form.I puled a chair and sat down looking down embarrassed."How was your night Isa?"Luke's soft voice broke the tension that was about to heighten in the dining room.I slowly raised my face and looked at him.I was in no mood to talk but his expectant eyes and his cute face made me give in."It was very nice luke as I hope was yours,"I replied with the most faked smile ever.
We ate breakfast in silence with my mother throwing furtive glances at my dress.It was clear that she was not happy with father"s decision over the matter.Once everyone was done,a maid cleared the cutlery on the table.My father rose up wiping his mouth with a towel.He looked at me as quickly as he could and then looked away."I hope you are ready for what is ahead of you today.Do the final touches and meet me at the car.Max will call once I'm ready too."He said and headed upstairs,probably to prepare himself.
