A young woman stepped out of the Guavo train station, clad in a crisp white T-shirt and jeans. The sun's gentle caress flushed her delicate features, and she tucked a few stray curls behind her ears.
Beneath her elegant, arched eyebrows were striking eyes, a slender nose, and cherry-red lips. Her natural beauty required no enhancement from makeup.
"Hello, Miss North, I presume? I'm the driver sent by the Pansy family," the chauffeur greeted as Jane North nodded in response and settled into the car, her fatigue evident.
During the journey, the driver surreptitiously stole glances at the young woman, her eyes closed as she rested in the back seat.
This woman was none other than Patrick Pansy's fiancée.
At just twenty-one, Patrick was already the formidable CEO of Pansy Group, setting him apart from his peers. He exuded vitality and a no-nonsense demeanor that commanded respect, striking fear into the hearts of many in the business world. His grandfather, Mike Pansy, had taken it upon himself to find him a suitable bride, and Jane, a countryside girl, was the chosen one.
With his hands firmly on the steering wheel, the driver couldn't help but take another glance at Jane's innocent countenance and shook his head, foreseeing the challenges she would face within the Pansy family.
As Jane gradually opened her eyes, she gazed upon the unfamiliar city with a calm, composed expression.
The car arrived at the grand Pansy family residence in no time, and the driver assisted Jane with her luggage.
Jane had barely set foot inside when a well-dressed woman appeared before her, her eyes filled with disdain.
"Wendy!"
"Yes, Mrs. Pansy," a maid promptly responded.
Upon a signal from Beatrice Pansy, she began spraying disinfectant around Jane.
Beatrice Pansy, Patrick's mother, stood with hands on her hips, issuing orders. "Spray her shoes and hair as well."
The strong, astringent scent made Jane's nose tingle. She couldn't help but retort, "What's the matter with you?"
Beatrice flew into a fit of anger. "I've heard that you come from the countryside, but I assumed you'd have some manners. It seems that you're no different from those ill-mannered girls they raise over there. I'm doing this to prevent any viruses or bacteria you might bring into our home. Do you want us to catch whatever you're carrying?"
