“Keep quiet, Cherise!”

-Elvis took a deep breath. “You’re Mfs. Lenoir from now on. You can’t be so reckless!”

“You must know that you have a reputation as Mrs. Lenoir. It’s more important than this dispensable breakfast!”

“But to me, you think your breakfast is more important!”

“What nonsense is this?! You’re the Lenoir family’s daughter–in–law, the wealthiest family in Mondale!”

The noise of the uncle and niece arguing made Damien turn away silently. He wheeled himself to the window to feel the morning breeze.

Since he was around ten years old, no one other than the villa’s servants cared if he ate breakfast.

No one would ever climb up more than ten flights of stairs like Cherise just so he could have an earlier breakfast.

The morning breeze caressed his face. He shut his eyes and had a self–deprecating smile on the corners of his lips.
