Is this the life of my dreams?

Angela goes to the wardrobe and opened the door. She was amazed by the view.

"Is this a dream??", she was so mesmerized that for a few minutes she was still and just looking at the closet.

Finally, she picked a dress and changed and then went downstairs where miss Aden was waiting for her.

"Come madam, you are looking so beautiful, please have your dinner. Master will have dinner in the study room only.", miss Aden said to Angela with a warm smile. Angela nodded and went back to her room after having dinner. She laid down on the bed facing the ceiling. "I didn't think even in my dreams that my life will take me here.", she thought and closed her eyes thinking about what happened to her.

*** 3 days ago ***

That night Angela reached her home and saw her stem-mother crying. she asked her anxiously about Jim and her stepmother said, "A- Angela, J-Jim, my son, they kidnapped my son. Please please save him". "What?? who are they? Did you call dad?", Angela asked. " Your dad is not picking up the call, I called him so many times. Angela, I know I made you suffer your whole life but please save my child. I will do anything that you want and will never bother you again. Please", her stepmother pleaded. "Stop crying. Jim is my brother also. I won't let anything happen to him.", she said with anger. Just then, Angela received a video call on her cell. She picked up and saw Jim, who was tied to the chair and was hurt in the face. His lower lip was bleeding and he was unconscious. She saw him and immediately called out his name multiple times but he didn't respond and then the call disconnected. Just 2 seconds later she got a voice call. She picked it. "If you want your brother alive, meet me at the Carlos café close to your nearest bus stop and don't try to act smart. A single wrong step and you will lose your brother forever.", a man answered the call and immediately disconnected. She was so much afraid that couldn't think of anything.

She did as she was told to. When she reached the café, she saw a man in all black wearing mask coming towards her. He told her to follow him. He blindfolded her and drove her through a forest to a silent and abandoned land. There was just a single hut. The man took Angela inside it and removed the blindfold. The first thing she saw there was her brother who was hurt and tied up on a chair unconscious. She ran towards him, crying, patting his cheeks, trying to make him get back to his senses, calling his name but he was not responding. Then she looked around and saw 3 men including the one who brought her there. They were standing behind an old man, who was sitting on a chair, around the same age as her father. "W-Who are you? What have you done to my brother? What do you want?", she shouted. The old man stood up from his chair and said, "You are a very brave girl to talk like that in front of me. Can you imagine what price you might have to pay for this?". "It's you who will have to pay the price for doing this to my brother. You don't know who my father is.".  The man looked at her with anger in his eyes trying to control himself he said, "Hahaha, now you are getting on my nerves. I know your father very well and no matter how hard he tries I won't let him be at the top. It's me who is on the top and will always be. Did you get that?" Angela stood there dumbfounded. She was not able to think anything.
