Melissa was so upset with everything that was happening in her life but she had no where else to go.If she had made any valuable friends at all it would be Lisa and Sara, but they too were also insisting she should get married to Frederick, but she doesn't want to be stuck as someone's house wife all her life. Worse yet to a proud and rich man.She feels there has to be more to life than being a full-time house wife to someone whom she doesn't have any feelings for.Melissa wants to marry for love not for wealth or power like her mother thinks, or the popular norm at that time but live a peaceful and quiet and normal life.And marrying Frederick wasn't going to do any of that.She wants to travel the world with the one whom her heart beats for, someone she longs to see again even after all this year's she kept in her heart, Nicholas Stetson.The sun wasn't scorching hot at it usually does, today it was quite windy and this is one of the best weather Melissa loves to explore in the ju
