LYDIA’S POV.

"Have you made a decision?" My father asked the two of us to sit down for breakfast.

Andrew looked at me through the corner of his eye waiting for my reply but I didn't have one.

"I don't know that, I'm still trying to figure it out but if you want me to work in the company then I guess I have no choice."

"No Princess. I want you to be involved in the affairs of the company and know the in and out of everything. So you can finally take your place at the company. Or do you have something else you're interested in?" My father stared at me waiting for a reply. Andrew, who had his eyes on the plate before him, stopped to analyze me.

Did I have something else I wanted to do? Nope, I had majored in business so I could work at my father's company. That was my only goal, to make my father proud in all aspects of my life. Luckily for me, he wasn't too hard on me either and he encouraged me all steps of the way.

    Lydia's POV: I gathered my things and she flaunted her hands in my face. My eyes almost bulged out of their socket when I saw a diamond ring and I held her hand. "You're getting married?" I squealed in excitement and she nodded frantically with a smile on her face. "Yes, Darren proposed last month." Darren was her on and off boyfriend since college and he always seemed to be a player as he was an athlete. Hearing that he was finally acting right and putting a smile on my best friend's face brought me nothing but joy. We strolled downstairs and she filled me in on how he proposed at Eiffel Tower after her show in Paris. I smiled listening as the driver, Mr Fil, opened the back seat of the black Rolls Royce for us. "That had to be the happiest day of my life." She concluded and I chessed teasing her. "So where to?" Mr Fil asked, looking at us through the glass. ********** We arrived at the spa and I had gotten my nails painted in baby blue and cream. While we were meant to be cat

    LYDIA’S POV.I sat in my dad's home office opening a bunch of files and books he had given to me to read about the company. He hadn't told me the position that was waiting for me at the company but he had slightly hinted on the position of the C.F.O. I was a bit giddy at the thought of being the Chief Financial Officer but I cautioned myself. Lorena and I were the same, we stayed delusion. Unlike me, her delusion became true. Tonight was the official engagement party and I had caught a few symptoms of pregnancy on her. Well not few but her constant cravings and nonchalance to eating anywhere without a care in the world. Either it was growth or my suspicions were right."Why was this large amount of money deposited into this account?" I asked myself squinting my eyes to see properly. Was there someone stealing from us? I thought to myself.Our family, The Millers, was prominent in the hospitality industry. We owned chains of famous hotels, restaurants, resorts and recreational center

    "All done." The stylist said and I admired my hair and slightly caked up face."Let me get your gown." She went into my walk-in closet while I just admired myself in the mirror. It had been a while since I had actually looked at myself and found myself gorgeous.She helped me into the gown and I hadn't fully taken in the beauty of the dress. It was made of a delicate white fabric that flowed and moved with every step. The neckline was simple and elegant, with a modest V-shape. The sleeves were long and billowy, adding a romantic touch to the dress. The length of the dress slightly grazed the floor."You look gorgeous ma'am." My stylist gushed with sincerity. I thanked her and I looked at the time. It was a few minutes to 8pm and the party was starting at exactly 8. So I quickly grabbed my gold clutch bag and the gift I purchased for Lorena and Darren. I hurried out the room with the stylist adjusting my gown following behind me."Finally." Andrew let out a breath and suddenly covered

It was then I forced my eyes open and instantly realized I wasn't in my house nor my office.Fear and confusion washed over me, as my eyes landed on absolutely nothing.
