Chapter 1

Chapter 01: Prologue

April, 2004.

Seventeen years ago.

It was pretty late at night when I walked into a huge mansion where everyone around me was eating and talking to everyone.

I took a look around the mansion, there were colorful balloons and presents laying everywhere on the floor, there were fancy cakes and pastries all around the hall. The wall at the back was covered by a fancy backdrop with a sentence stroke across horizontally. It says——Happy Birthday to Andrew.

I figured it must be an expensive birthday party Andrew’s parents threw for him. He was the first son and the descendant of Peyton Group, he was born to be in the family on top of the aristocracy. Everyone envies him… Well guess what? But I don’t.

Although this party was said to be planned to be Andrew’s birthday party, for what I saw, the adults around the house did not come to just greet him.

Indeed, Andrew is an important figure that everybody would want to have connections to. The people wanted to be either talked about by Andrew to Mr. and Mrs. Peyton, or to be praised and recognized by Andrew so that it would be of help in their companies’ future. Birthday boy being used by all these filthy adults, how sad was that, Andrew?

Though, my parents were one of the adults too.

I followed my parents here. My parents wore as gorgeous as they would; I was in a specially tailored black suit, I wore a red bow tie under my chin, a pair of shiny black leather shoes on my feet, and I had my brunette hair comb to the side with a lot of gel which my butler applied for me.

I looked around, every kid in this hall was wearing something as fancy as mine, except for Andrew, because he was wearing a big crown on his head. King of the day, what a silent yet strong manifesto, I got it, it almost made me speechless when I saw it.

Although I dressed up for this party, I hated functions like this. Everyone was talking and laughing so loudly, some even sounded fake, it hurt my ears very much.

It might sound weird for the words to be said by a ten-year-old kid, but I in fact love peace better than all those merries.

However, in the chaos in this hall, my parents’ sides were the only safe zone of mine. Even if I hated the noises, I thought I should just follow wherever they go and bear with everything now until the night is over.

“Henry, could you please give us some space? Mommy and daddy need to talk to our friends.”

Unfortunately, just when I thought that they would say, as they always did, my mom requested for my absence so she could talk to the others without needing to take care of me.

With a little worryness showing on my furrowed brows, I pouted, “But mummy, where should I go?”

My mom bent her waist and patted my back, she pointed at the kids around Andrew at the other side of the hall, she mentions, “Maybe you can join Andrew and the kids there, you can play with them.”

As my mom said, I gave Andrew a glance. Andrew gave a sharp glance back at me, yet he looked away right away as he gave a scoff in disdain.

Andrew and I, we were in fourth grade at the time, and we were in the same class in school. Perhaps because he is wealthy, maybe because he was looked up to by everybody, and maybe because he felt competed by me——the son of Iverson Group, he never talked to me, and he always looked at me in a disgusted way, I figured he hated me. And I thought that was the main reason I disliked him.

If I couldn’t be by my parents’ side, and if I couldn’t care to join the king and his servants, and his admirers, I figured I should find a place around the mansion that could fit me and provide me peace.

As I decided, I took away the one last piece of macaroon and walked out of the hall. I munched on it as I walked. I turned my head and looked around, trying to find a quiet corner and spend the rest of the night all by myself.

However, a huge function like this made the mansion occupied by people. I wouldn’t mind if it was just a teeny-tiny hole in the wall, yet there was no space for me. I thought I shouldn’t have come to this party at the beginning.

Just as I finished the macaroon in my hand, I found myself walking out of the mansion. Under the white moonlight, I had entered a formal garden in front of the mansion. I almost stopped breathing when I took a glance around me.

Chapter 02: the Heart
There was a huge fountain in the middle of the garden. The neatly trimmed bushes and scrubs formed low hedges that made up the perfect circulation leading the people through the greenery world. I couldn’t stop exclaiming in my heart as I walked deeper into the garden, and that was when a gazebo next to the fountain suddenly entered my sight. The gazebo was distinct from a traditional one, it wasn’t built round nor hexagon, it was built on a rectangular concrete base. The thick wooden pillars stood by the four corners holding the rectangular frame up on top, the rafts laid horizontally on the frames, while the thinner one laid closely to each other on top of the raft structuring the roof. With the same materials, the corner brackets added essential supports to the structure.

Chapter 03: Henry Iverson
April, 2021. The sound of chaos in this hectic city pulls me out of a dream that I never wanted to leave. To be specific, it has to be said as an old memory of mine. I live on the top floor of a penthouse in the city. I wake up to the same noises every morning. The noises of the traffic——the cars, the motorcycles, sometimes the river cruises, for the tour across the DuSable Bridge; and the morning people——citizens, office workers, and tourists. This is the most north-east part of Illinois, built along one of the edges of the Chicago River——Michigan Avenue, Chicago. I get out of my bed as soon as I am awake. I put on my red bra and pantie after I cleaned myself. I fill the empty br

Chapter 05: Project CAPTURE
The project brief of the competition was to build a contemporary art and cultural gallery at any existing site within Chicago. To have a deeper understanding about contemporary art and culture, I visited the state library to do an enough amount of research and information collection. After that, I travelled through Illinois to visit every art gallery that could be found, especially in Chicago, in order to study the visual and sensory impact that the inside and outside spaces brought to both the environment and the people. I listed down a few key points to the spaces I wanted to present in my project. Afterwards, trying to find the perfect site for my project, Victor and I travelled to everywhere within the first week of the competition duration. After we set our boundary in

Chapter 06: Jamie Lee Peyton
A week after we received the invitation, we attended the awarding ceremony of the competition right at one of Jamie Lee Peyton’s properties in Chicago——the Blue Horizon Hotel. Victor dressed himself in a slim fit pink suit with a floral shirt and a white tie inside, while I dressed up in a navy blue suit with a classic white t-shirt underneath. We chose a seat not too close to the front to keep ourselves low profiled, while not too far away from the stage so that we could take a good look at Jamie Lee Peyton’s face. As the ceremony started, the CEO of Minerva——Jamie Lee Peyton, was invited in by the host to give an opening speech. At the moment as he stepped up onto the stage, Victor and I finally had our opportunities to fetch his true appearance in sight.

Chapter 07: Henrietta Chandelier
“If you’re paying attention, like you should, because you’re a man too.” Victor mentioned, “A man like Jamie Lee Peyton, the CEO, decent on the outside, but on the inside, he is just as simple as every guy on earth!” My face turned blank, “What do you mean?”  Victor clicked his tongue as he slapped his forehead with his palm, “I’m telling you, Henry Baby, unless Jamie Lee Peyton is a gay like me, he won’t be able to resist the seduction of a hot pretty lady!” I sneered, “And... so?” “So!? Seriously!?” Victor sounded a little furious. Before I could realize w

Chapter 08: Crossdresser I
After deciding my female name, Victor began my makeover session first thing next morning. First, he took me to the beauty treatment. I was forced to undergo hair removal treatment, they plucked my facial hair and nose hair with tweezers; they waxed my armpits, chest, legs, and even my private part! Believe me, you won’t want to know how painful that felt! After the hair removal treatment, they gave me a relaxing facial and spa treatment. Glad it was free of charge. Afterwards, Victor took me to the malls he often shopped to get me some essential clothes and accessories for Henrietta Chandelier. We went to the office lady session right away. Victor chose plenty of clothes in different styles and colors with the

Chapter 09: Crossdresser II
Victor came to me and put his hands on my shoulders. He looked into the mirror as he exclaimed, “You are a Goddamn sexy hot blonde, Henrietta.” I chuckled, “I know.” hell I am. There, Victor swept my hair to the back and hooked them across my ear. He touched my left face and laid his fingers at the spot right below the tail of my left eyebrow, where my only mole on my face is. “This mole is the most sexiest trait on your face, use it wisely as I would say.” After finding myself a perfect wig, we chose a pink leather handbag on our way to our next stop. For our next stop, Victor took me to the cosmetic department. Before c

Chapter 10: The Way In
April, 2021.   Today, the time has finally come. After I ensure I am one hundred percent prepared to step on the route of my revengeance, I set off from my penthouse for Minerva.   As I arrive at Minerva, I look up to the beautiful contemporary high rise building that my parents built.   It was a long time ago I last had the chance to take a glance at it. It now looks a little bit different from what was printed in my memories, but I think it is alright for now, because once I take Jamie Lee Peyton down and take over the company, I will turn the building back to how it looked like during its earliest days.   Deeply, I take a breath. Once I pick up my courage, I take my step and walk into my battlefield.
