Vienna got down from the bus and walk to a convenience store nearby and bought some snacks to eat with a bottle of water She sat down near the store to have them. She was once a princess who will not eat anything unless it was prepared by the best chef But now she doesn’t even have enough money to eat a proper meal in one day. She can only blame Alan for her misfortunes. If it wasn’t because of him, her life and her family will not be ruined like this.
Three years ago, she was the well-known fiancee of the great and wealthy Clinton family. Even though her family wasn’t that rich, the title of Alan’s fiancee commands respect for her anywhere she goes and their wedding date was set until the girl she bought in, Benita someone she thought of as her best friend. they met at a club when she was harassed by a group of guys while she helped her and after she told her that she is an orphan with no means of help, she decide to take her in and let her live with her in their house That was the biggest mistake she ever made and Benita took everything from her She loved him but he believed Benita and chose Benita over her.
Because of Alan’s grandfather’s wishes to get him married to secure his position and because of the promise between both parties, he decides to get them engaged immediately. Vienna had a crush on Alan since she was ten years old but he did not notice her at all. When she heard about the engagement between the both of them. She happily accepted because he did not like her at all and Alan paid her little or no attention at all. He always ignore her although he never told her that he does not acknowledge their relationship so Vienna did not give up.
Then three years ago, she had just gained admission into the university she received the news that her father has been arrested and taken to the police station. She quickly left her school and rush over. Her father was reported for fraud and embezzlement of the company’s fund and also manipulation of the company’s account Vienna was speechless Her dad might like money too much but she knows he wouldn’t do such a thing The case dragged on but they couldn’t bail him All their money and everything was seized She quickly ran to meet with Alan for help She knows that just a word from him is enough to clear her father’s name. She first went to his company but he was not there. Then, she went over to his house. The security stop him from entering and sent her out rudely. She was surprised and taken aback by their actions. She waited for a long time and also tried calling him on the phone but it was unreachable. She waited till night, then she saw him coming out with Benita beside him. She was surprised and wondered why Benita of all people is with him and is even allowed to touch him. She walks over to the both of them trying to keep herself calm.
“Alan, I’ve been waiting here for you for a long time now the security won’t allow me in,” she said looking very tired.
Benita held his hand more tightly and closer and he also reciprocate. She swallows hard and decide not to be bothered by it since she has a more important issue to discuss with him.
“Can we talk, please? It’s urgent” she said again
“There is nothing for us to talk about. If you want to talk about your Dad. I know about it. And also don’t ever come here again. No matter how shameless you are, you should still have some self-respect. Shouldn’t you p>
He said in a very mean and annoyed tone. Vienna try to say something but couldn’t.
“What does he mean?” She thought.
“Why are you here?” She asked directing the question to Benita.
“Why am I here with my boyfriend and in his house?” She also asked with arrogance written all over her. Vienna felt her body tremble. She suddenly develop pain in her head and held it.
“Are you sick? What nonsense are you saying?” She asked aggressively and turn to Alan
“Alan says something” she screamed and held his hand.
