THE HIDDEN HEIRESS

Manayo Kim was not just rich. She was a miracle. Her parents got her after ten years of prayers. She was their only daughter. She was their life. Her father, Mr. Kim, was a soft-hearted billionaire in Seoul. He loved Manayo more than his company. Her mother, Mrs. Kim, was different. She was angry and strict. She wanted Manayo to be perfect. "You are a Kim. Never cry in public," she would say. Manayo had everything. Big mansion, luxury cars, servants. Manayo never lived like a normal girl. She always grew up with bodyguards and a strict environment. Wherever she went — school, college, shopping — bodyguards were always with her. She never got permission to go anywhere alone. Her mother was very conscious about her. Mrs. Kim was angry, but she loved Manayo deeply. She wanted her to become a strong girl, not a weak princess. "The world is dangerous for a rich girl," she always said. Manayo always obeyed her mother. Even though they fought a lot, they loved each other very much. Because of her mother, Manayo learned fighting and shooting. She was not just beautiful. She was dangerous. Her father watched her sadly. He was soft-natured. "Let her live free," he would tell his wife. But Mrs. Kim would reply angrily, "No! I am making her strong future. Manayo turned 18, she wanted to go abroad for study and freedom.

After a lot of stubbornness, at last she went to America. She started studying at a top university there. Her parents said, "We will buy a house for you." But she refused. She wanted to live in the university hostel like a normal student. In the start, she did not talk to anyone in America. She silently did her work and went back to her room. But in that university, some girls did ragging. They thought they were the gangsters of the university. Their leader's name was Rachal. She was also from Korea. Her family business was in America, so she was the richest student in that university. Manayo was very beautiful, so all the boys in the university liked her. But Manayo did not like to be in a relationship with anyone. She never gave any lift to any boy in the university. Those four girls became jealous of Manayo and started to misbehave with her. One day, during break time, those girls put a bottle in her meal. Manayo silently bore it and ate the meal. On the second day, those four girls came again and spoiled her meal and left. On the third day, the same thing happened. But when they came to her on the fourth day, Manayo smiled for the first time... and that smiled scared them
