Chapter 1

When a mother ignored one of her daughters and wanted to marry the other two to a rich man
The massive mansion overlooking the ocean sparkled under the California sunset.
White marble floors.
Crystal chandeliers.
Golden mirrors.
Everything inside the house screamed luxury and wealth.
In the center of the giant living room…
an elegant wealthy woman anxiously prepared for an important visit.
Her name was Victoria Collins.
Cold.
Proud.
Obsessed with status and money.
Standing next to her were her two favorite daughters.
Olivia and Charlotte.
Both twenty years old.
Expensive dresses.
Perfect makeup.
Diamond jewelry shining under the lights.
The two young women laughed while fixing their hair in the giant mirror.
Because tonight…
a young billionaire was coming to the mansion.
And one of them might become his future wife.
But while everyone in the living room prepared excitedly…
near the kitchen sink…
another girl silently washed dishes alone.
Her name was Samantha.
She was the same age as the other two girls.
But nobody inside the mansion treated her like family.
She wore a simple white apron.
Her hands were wet from soap water.
Her hair was tied back carelessly.
She had been washing dishes for hours without stopping.
Like a servant.
Not a daughter.
Victoria abruptly turned toward the kitchen.
And the second she noticed Samantha slowing down for even a moment…
her voice exploded through the mansion.
"Move faster Samantha!
Those dishes won't wash themselves!"
Samantha instantly lowered her eyes.
"Yes ma'am…"
Even the two sisters smirked proudly.
Olivia quietly laughed.
"She actually looks like a real maid."
Charlotte fixed her necklace while smiling arrogantly.
"Good thing the billionaire isn't coming here for her."
The sisters laughed together.
Samantha stayed silent.
She continued washing dishes exactly like she always did.
Victoria proudly walked closer to her glamorous daughters.
"Remember to smile beautifully tonight.
One of you may become the wife of one of the richest men in America."
The two girls exchanged excited looks.
Meanwhile Samantha tried to ignore everything around her.
But deep inside…
her heart slowly broke.
She also dreamed about another life.
But inside that mansion…
nobody truly saw her.
Then suddenly…
the giant mansion doors slowly opened.
Everything inside the house froze.
Even Samantha stopped moving.
Elegant footsteps echoed across the marble floor.
A young billionaire entered the mansion surrounded by security guards.
Tall.
Elegant.
Cold.
His name was Alexander Hayes.
One of the youngest and most powerful billionaires in the country.
Victoria immediately smiled proudly.
"Welcome!
It's such an honor to have you here!"
Then she gently pushed Olivia and Charlotte forward.
"These are my beautiful daughters."
The two women smiled perfectly.
But Alexander barely looked at them.
His eyes seemed to search for something else inside the room.
Victoria slowly became nervous.
"Perhaps you'd like to sit with the girls in the main salon?.."
But the billionaire kept looking around.
Then suddenly…
his eyes stopped.
Directly on Samantha.
Standing silently beside the kitchen sink.
Wearing a simple white apron.
Her hands still wet from dishwater.
A heavy silence immediately filled the mansion.
Victoria almost stopped breathing.
The two sisters turned toward Samantha in shock.
Alexander continued staring at her without looking away.
As if she was the only real person in the room.
Samantha slowly lifted her confused eyes toward him.
For the first time in her life…
someone was truly looking at her.
Victoria instantly tried interrupting the moment.
"Oh…
she's not important.
She's just—"
But Alexander slowly raised his hand stopping her.
The silence became even heavier.
Even the security guards silently watched the scene.
The sisters looked more nervous with every second.
And Samantha could feel her heart pounding within her chest.
Then slowly…
Alexander began walking toward the kitchen.
Toward Samantha.
Every step echoed through the silent mansion.
Victoria looked almost panicked now.
"Sir…
perhaps you'd rather spend time with my other daughters…"
But the billionaire no longer listened to anyone.
His eyes remained locked only on Samantha.
Finally he stopped directly in front of her.
Samantha still held a plate in her trembling hands.
The young billionaire looked at her silently for several long seconds.
Then slowly opened his mouth to speak.
And exactly at that moment…
the video cuts off abruptly.
Leaving the entire mansion trapped in suspense.
What will Alexander say to Samantha?
May you like
Will Victoria's perfect plan finally fall apart?
