Echoes of laughter can be heard everywhere, the scent of red flowers is all over the place. A beautiful lady can be seen running around in the mist of the valley very free and happy. She was still enjoying and appreciating the beauty of nature when she started feeling pain all over her body as if someone somewhere was beating her. She was groaning in pain and wishing that she never woke up from this paradise of peace and comfort.
When she opened her eyes she was mad at her brother for ending her sweet dream. She pursued him all over the house shouting his name out, she wanted to get hold of his shirt collar so that she can give him the beating of his life. But unfortunately her mother stepped in between them, thereby giving her brother some kind of protection. She greeted her mom according to their tradition.
Cassandra: (with a frowning face, got on her knees and bowed her head to the ground) Good morning mother. How was your night? Hope you slept well?
Camila( Cassandra's mom): get up, my sleeping beauty. I slept very well.
When Cassandra stood up she wanted to resume the chase, but her mom won't let her. Everyone knew that she had a hot temper that only her mom could quench. Camila gave her a heavy knock on the head making her to groan in pain. Then she caught her left ear and dragged her to the kitchen which was on the second floor of their gigantic mansion, the ALDO'S MANSION.
Aldo is the name of her wealthy father, a very arrogant, proud man. He can go to any extent to get what he wants, even if it's at the cost of his family, he doesn't care. He was friends with Lord Davis but due to his incessant loaning of money without paying back, Lord Davis got angry at him and severed ties with him. Lord Davis was known for his brutal and unforgiving punishment to anyone to owe him. He sent spies to get information about Aldo's family, because he had been hearing rumors that the most beautiful lady in the city was his daughter. So he planned on making him pay with his most beautiful daughter. No debtor gets away from the clutches of Lord Davis without paying, even when the debt is paid, he can still get rid of the person and his family- that was the principle of Lord Davis.
So after making Cassandra to prepare the breakfast and wash all the dishes, her mother sent her to the market to get a few things for dinner. That day's dinner was to be a special one because their father was inviting a friend to dinner. But none of them knew who that friend was, and it was quite puzzling because their father had never hosted a friend or visitor in their house before due to his beautiful daughter that he was trying to protect from the eyes of lustful men in the city.
Everyone was preparing for this dinner but Aldo didn't seem to care, from his expression it could be seen that he was soo worried and didn't want to host the dinner anymore but there was nothing he could do about it.
