Chapter One
Glasses clinking with each other as their owners made a toast. Lights were on like it was a parade. Laughter could be heard in any direction you stood.
It was the 68th Annual Opening of Brown Industries. Throughout the years, Brown Industries was passed down the every first born of the Brown family. Now it was Rashford Brown's turn. He was known the be one of New York's richest elites with an estimated net worth of two billion dollars. He was every girl's Prince Charming with a sharp jawline that could put Ian Somerholder to shame.
Moon Ga-Young walked into the room as if she owned it. She was the eldest daughter of the Moon family. The Moons were also on top with four richest families with them falling in third place. Moon Ga-Young was known to be the epitome of an Asian goddess; with her long raven coloured hair, cute but feisty features that would put any girl to shame and not to forget, her pinkish lips. She was quite given the attention when her engagement to Rashford was announced. She held the title, Future Mrs. Brown. Whatever the Future Mrs. Brown wanted, she got it. She went with the motto; I want it, I got it.
She walked gracefully in a dusty pink silk off the shoulder dress paired with YSL Tribute Lips 105 Patent- leather platform sandals in pink. Moon Ga-Young made her way to Rashford, to see him with her best friend, Sophie Bass. Many people had warned her of her friendship with Sophie but she didn't pay heed.
"Rashford, I've got your information". Said Moon Ga-Young. She was grinning at him lovesickly, failing to realise his eyes weren't on her but on the cute petite girl beside him. He realised the girl before him was talking to him. "Ok". He said curtly. As he left, Moon Ga-Young didn't know that her future was about to change; just right infront of her.
About an hour later, Rashford was supposed to announce the date of his marriage but what he said next shook every soul in the banquet. "I want to announce infront of every body thaf I am breaking of my engagement with Moon Ga-Young". Moon Ga-Young coudn't say anything. All her words were stuck in her throat but with all her power, she uttered," Why?" and Rashford replied by saying," I don't love you anymore. I never did. I was going to get married to you but once I saw Sophie, I couldn't deny the attraction".
Moon Ga-Young started to see all the warnings about her so- called best friend. "That innocent white lotus who claims to be your best friend will be the cause of your downfall one day". Her childhood friend, Camari had told her. She now started to remember the times she saw them too close for her liking. But she didn't say anything. After all he was her fiancee and she was her bestfriend. But she thought wrong. Well sometimes, people can bite you hard in the ass. After Rashford had renounced his engagement, it seemed like every one wanted to spend time with the new Future Mrs. Brown. In a blink of an eye, Moon Ga-Young fell with tears running down her face. She didn't know what she did to him. She had given him everything he wanted. Then it clicked. Maybe he left her because she refused to break her virginity before marriage. So with that thought in her head, she made her way towards her ex- fiancee.
"R-Rash, was it because I didn't want to give you my virginity?". She asked then added, " I promise once we get out of here I will give it to you". But he laughed. Why would he need her when he's got a cute petite woman by his side. "Why would l need you when I've got her with me?". He voiced out his thoughts. Now all the socialites at the banquet were making fun of her.
'She thinks she can use her virginity to win him back'. One laughed.
'Oh my God, she's such a w***e'.
'Hahaha, she thinks she can compete with Sophie Bass'.
The next words that Moon Ga-Young said to Sophie ended her a very bad punishment. "Sophie, you think because you're now his, you conquer the whole city? Well remember this, you were the reason why two people broke off their engagement. Do you know why? Because you're a w***e who couldn't get her claws off someone's fiancee. You are a mistress". The moment she said those words, a manly hand hit her face. "PAK!!". No one ever thought Rashford was a man to hit women moreover in public. A gentle hand touched his palm. "Oh my God, Rashford are you okay". Sophie asked. Rashford looked at her like she was the most precious thing he had ever seen in his life. Meanwhile, the other girl was shocked. Rashford had never treated her with that kind of gentleness. Before leaving, Rashford made his way towards Moon Ga-Young and poured a full glass of red wine on her. Now with mascara dripping down her face , make- up ruined and alcohol poured on her, she looked like the villain in a Korean drama where the villain was punished. People started to take pictures of her and posted it online. One person started taking a video when Rashford made his way towards Moon Ga-Young and posted it on line.
In just an hour, her whole life had been thrown away. She was humiliated by someone she thought loved her. She couldn't even believe Sophie would even stoop so low the date someone's fiancee. She made her way towards the entrance and left. The party came back to life after a few minutes. When she got home, she realised all her clothes were in the living room. "Mother what's this". She asked her mother. Mrs. Moon was sitting in her arm chair twirling her wine glass around. "Get out of my house". Mrs. Moon said. Moon Ga-Young was shocked. "B-but this is my house". She said. "Not anymore. You couldn't even get married to him. Ah, what a waste of time. All the money I spent on you didn't do you any good". Her mother said again and those words were like a bullet passing through her. How could a mother tell her daughter that?. "Can't you see how your younger sister is? She is perfectly groomed whiles you are... Aishh!!!".
Well dearest Moon Yu- Jun inherited all the good qualities of her mother and father whiles her older sister, Moon Ga-Young inherited the bad qualities like being an alcholic like her mother and cunning like her father. With no words said, Moon Ga-Young ushered herself outside. Her mother had blocked all her credit cards and for some reason, she knew her mother was going to disown her.
