Rich-Craft
Victoria Anderson
The mansion of Parker's was filled with grieve, and the atmosphere was gloomy. The weeping sounds were likely to be heard. But they were all tears of joy, with the work of acting.
Inside the hearts, the joy was dancing.
The door of the mansion opens, and a lady with bodyguards surrounding her, walks in. No, she was not one of the Parker's, nor was she related to them. But she was the heir of all the wealth, the Parker's had.
Victoria
I have come to make an announcement!
She speaks, grabbing everyone's attention. The Parker's take a look at the intruder who had entered their land without their permission. Anger takes over the now suppose to be the head of Parker's.
Isabella
Who allowed you to come in?
Isabella
Do you lack manners! Young lady!
Victoria
I do not lack them Madam.
Victoria
But to me, it is you and your family who lacks them.
Isabella
You are the one standing on my land.
Victoria
It is in reality, vise-versa.
Victoria
Enough of the talk.
Victoria
I am Victoria Anderson!
Victoria
The person in line to the property of Parker's!
Isabella
I assume you have learnt how to joke very well.
Victoria
Perhaps, You have learnt how to deny the truth very well!
Victoria
Here is the proof.
Victoria orders her bodyguard to hand the paper work which stated that all the wealth of Parker's was now under Victoria Anderson. The land slipped from below the feet of Parker's.
The day for Parker's had become gloomy in reality for now. The coming of Victoria in there life was like a storm in the middle of spring. The beauty of garden was ruined in a harsh wave.
A servant knocks on the door of Elizabeth's room. The heir of Williams'. She was informed of the drastic change in the image of Parker's and how a nobody became the heir to a property of billions.
Elizabeth
Grandpa Parker had to be the most venomous father to have ever existed.
Elizabeth
But looking on to the brighter side, I have found myself a companion.
Elizabeth
Set me an appointment with the new lady of Parker's.
Elizabeth
I want to see in person, what perfection she had owned to have earned so much. (smiles)
The mansion of Adam's was alighted. The lights were sparkling and a grand celebration was going on. A ball was hosted on the death and downfall of the Parker's. Nothing feels better than to know that you yourself are at the top.
Andrew
Parker's have lost it.
Andrew
I have heard that they have been thrown out the mansion. Glad to hear it.
Andrew
I wish, the new heir faces the same fate.
Andrew
Parker's do not deserve any penny let alone a billion.
Andrew
I have to meet the new heir. Make sure to invite her in my future parties.
Andrew
Is it true that she belonged to a middle class family?
The day was marked with the whole country being in shock. Few were happy, few were sad. Few were angry and mad. All because a new heir was designated for the Parker Family. Talk of fate, the girl had it's back.
Maid
Madam Elizabeth had come.
Victoria
Show her the way to the garden.
Victoria closes the file she was working on and walks to the garden. The Heir of William's was waiting for her in the garden. Victoria though saw this meeting as of no use, but she can not deny the opportunity to make a marvelous appearance.
Victoria
Good Evening Miss. Williams. (bows)
Elizabeth
Good Evening Lady Anderson.(bows back)
They both greet each other. Victoria takes a seat in front of Elizabeth. The maid serves her some tea and then leaves on the order of her master.
Victoria
May I know your motive for this meeting.
Elizabeth
It was to see you.
Elizabeth
I was wondering who would be the new heir.
Elizabeth
Turned out Grandpa Parker chose a teenager as the heir.
Victoria
Does it bother you?
Elizabeth
Nothing he does bothers me.
Elizabeth
I have known him well. His actions are never showing their true colors.
Elizabeth
The Parker's were unworthy.
Elizabeth
I know them well.
Victoria
My meeting with them was short enough to say I will not recognize them if we were ever to cross paths.
Elizabeth
I like your humor. They are indeed easy to be forgotten.
They were in the middle of their conversation when a maid comes and tells Victoria something in her ear. She in response nods her head and sends the maid away.
Victoria
I am surprised to say this, but we have another visitor.
Victoria
If you don't mind.
Elizabeth
Oh Please, the more, the merrier.
Victoria orders the maid to let the guest in. It was the young master of the Adam's. Victoria was neutral with her reaction, but Elizabeth was not very pleased.
Andrew
Greetings Lady Victoria. (kisses her hand)
Victoria
Like vise Gentleman Adam. (bows)
Andrew
Lady Elizabeth! (bows)
Elizabeth
Gentleman Andrew! (bows back)
Party Of Adam's
The night had finally come. The gentle breeze was entering the room of Victoria through the numerous windows. The mansion was new to her as well as the people living in it.
Victoria
Send an invitation to Adam's as well.
Victoria
(hands a letter to her maid)
Maid
Yes madam! (bows and leaves)
Victoria had become a popular figure among the rich. She was the talk of the town and nothing was there to replace her influence. People love rumours and talks and things they wished existed.
Grace
Parker's have been thrown out.
Grace
But how am I supposed to help you?
Isabella
Madam Grace, You are our only hope now.
Isabella
I beg you. Do us justice.
Isabella
Where will we go now?
Grace
You know very well. You have to pay the price.
Grace
Furthermore, you should have thought this back when you left your education, thinking of yourself as a rich maiden.
Grace
People face situations unexpectedly.
Grace
And I, will not interfere with karma.
Grace
Nothing hurts like it.
Grace
Maid show her the way out.
Isabella
Madam please listen to me! (tried to get hold of her)
Maid
(makes Isabella leave)
Grace walks up to her window and stares at Isabella who was leaving her mansion. The Parker's were greedy and stupid, but it was a mistake to take them as nothing.
Victoria
Madam Grace! What a pleasant surprise!
Grace
Like wise Lady Victoria!
Victoria
How about I take you to visit my new garden.
They both started walking. The green vines in their way, the beautiful flowers and morning glory. The rising sun. It was a beautiful scenery that they were walking through.
Victoria
Please take a seat.
Victoria
(sits on the other side)
Victoria
Would you like some tea?
Victoria
(actions the maid to serve them both tea)
Grace
What are your thoughts about Parker's?
Victoria
I don't hate them.
Victoria
I don't love them.
Victoria
Not only that, but I haven't even been properly introduced to them.
Victoria
Furthermore, I cannot make assumptions.
Grace
Those words are wisely said.
Grace
But for the vice people.
Victoria
Everyone seems to hate them.
Victoria
They hated Grandpa Parker the same?
Grace
He was a man of dignity.
Grace
But his daughter was far away from the word dignity.
Grace
They say, extravagant ruins children. (glances at her)
Victoria
But, it will be of no use to advise me.
Victoria
I, stand for dignity.
Victoria
Madam Grace, I have heard your daughter had turned 2 this month.
Victoria
I was not present here to have wished her.
Victoria
Please accept this little gift from me. I hope this will be the symbol of our companion ship.
Victoria
(puts the ruby ear rings on the table that were handed to her by her maid in a box)
Grace
Lady Victoria, there is no need to give me tokens.
Grace
I, will be a good companion to you. (closes the box and returns it back)
Victoria
Please enjoy. (orders her maid to serve more tea)
The ladies talked of business and family till the sun was up in the sky, shining brightly. But see, trust is hard to win. Especially in nobility.
It had been a month now, after the visit paid by Andrew Adam, Victoria was called in every single party he held. But being new to such an extravagance, she refused his invitation gently.
But today, the air was different. Victoria was getting ready to attend the party. Talk of patience, she had it under her feet. This time, Andrew Adam himself came to invite her in person.
She wore a gorgeous ivory gown with matching heels and earrings along with the gloves. To match her ****** look, she wore a shade of baby pink along with blue-glittering eye shadow.
To finish her look, she ties her front hair into a braid and keeps her back hair down till her waist. This way she had attained her maiden look of a young and elegant lady.
Maid
Madam, Lady Elizabeth had come downstairs!
Victoria
Hmm? (still applying her lipstick)
Victoria
Go! Inform her that I am coming.
Victoria takes a look into the mirror and walks out. The heels sure were high, and it took her sometime to be able to walk down the stairs in them.
Victoria
Lady Elizabeth, I was expecting you the least.
Victoria
Are you not going to the party?
Elizabeth
I just thought that it would be pleasant if you and I went there as a company.
Elizabeth
You see Lady Victoria, I have no one to talk the carpet with.
Victoria
Having a partner was not mentioned as far as I could remember.
Elizabeth
You must have not taken a clear look.
Elizabeth
But, Leave that talk for now.
Elizabeth
Lady Victoria, Would you like to be my companion?
Elizabeth
(forwards her hand)
Victoria
Pleasure is mine.
Elizabeth
I wonder why you never attended any party before?
Victoria
I am still young.
Victoria
And it suits no child to attend parties like adult.
Elizabeth
And any special reason for now?
Victoria
I just couldn't help but admire the hard work done by Gentleman Andrew.
Both the ladies talked of many things including how the Adam's family was. They soon went to the party where they were given a grand welcome by Andrew himself.
Andrew
Lady Victoria! It's a pleasure to have you here! (kisses her hand)
Andrew
You are looking gorgeous as ever.
Victoria
You too. (smiles)
Andrew
Come, Let me introduce you to my family.
Elizabeth was nowhere to be seen. She had taken her leave shortly after they reached the party hall saying she had some business to do. But Victoria knew well what the Williams and Adams had planned.
