After the initial shock waned, Serena started grinning in front of the mirror while her head started to recall details from the novel.

If she recalls crrectly, Serena Liiliane maxwell's character is indeed the villaness in the stoty. She even remembers that she scolded her granddaughter for using her name but quickly forgave her because of the status give to the said character. Serena is the most beautiful lady in the empire. Not only that, she is the only biological daughter of the Duke Simoun maxwell. The Duke and the Dutchess have always wanted a child, but sadly for many years they were'nt given any. Thus, they opted to adopt one of thier distant relative's son when he was just about 3 months old and named him Leonard Alphonse Maxwell to succeed the dutchy. However, just 5 months after the adoption the Dutchess was found pregnant.

There was suddenly an uproar in the duchy, for if the child is born male, they will have to return Leonard to his family to avoid any succession feud. The Duke and Dutchess both prayed for a baby girl, not only because of the consideration for Leonard but also because they truly wanted a daughter to spoil. It is no exageration to say that Duke Simoun and Dutchess Celine are the most beautiful lovebirds in the whole kingdom of Windsor. Imagine how thier biological child will look like.

Thus, when the baby was born and turned out to be a girl, the couple cried tears of joy and thanked all the gods in heaven. They know that having another child is next to impossible, given that the couple were already in their late-30's and the difficulty of pregnancy for the Dutchess. They named the her Serena Lilianne Maxwell. Serena for when she was born, she was so traquil and serene, Lilian because this daughter of thiers represent everything that is innocent, pure and beautiful in their eyes.

As expected, Serena was treated as the pearl in the palm of thier hands. You can only imagine how heavenly her childhood was. With her parents , she only has to look at an object for 3 seconds then it will immediately be given to her. When she started learning, even when her performance was mediocre at best, they will tell her that she is the most talented in the world. And when she smiles, her parents will tell her that their darling baby is the most beautiful child in the whole universe. To put it bluntly, she became a stupid airhead who was quite egocentric.

So how do you expect her to assimilate when she went to the school for nobility at the age of 18? Well, she simply expected things to turn out as they always did. Initially, all her classmates treated her with respect and awe. But further into her schooling, she realized that she does not always get the best score and although she the most beautiful , she is not the most liked. 18 is the age of romance for most of the nobility. When she entered school, she expected to have a myriad of admirers, but no one ever approach her. She thought that the reason shoul be because she already has the crown prince as her fiance, but surprise surprise! Her fiance turned out to have someone else in his heart. In fact, not only him but it seems like all high spec guys like the same lady.

Said lady was the female lead in the novel, the daughter of the improvished Baron Edward Jean Evans. Emily was depicted as a pretty and smart lady. She has chessnut brown hair, large green eyes, small button nose, rosy cheeks and pink lips. Her skin although not that white, was fair. She always get the highest grade in their year and was righteous in all of her actions. She was strong-willed with a slight hero complex. In short, she became the girl guys love to love, and girls love to hate.

Meanwhile, Serena could not accept the fact that she became a girl standing behind someone's shadow. So she tried to reflect on what she might be doing wrong. The first thing she thought of was that in one of the books she read, it was said that smilling at people makes one look kind and friendly. Serena's parents told her not to just give her smile to anyone. Well, perhaps that is one thing that she should change. Her smile looks coquettish with her two vortexes, and altough it attracted many bees to the honey, it also made her looks too much of a seductress. Things would have been alright if that ended there, but given her school performance, she was directly labeled as the typical dumb blond bimbo in the campus.
