A Mother's Will

Chapter 1

It was now the summer of 2019; the month of April was ending soon. At the world-famous Milan Fashion Week 2019, Belle, the show stopper, had fallen from the escalator and broken her leg; she could not even stand up on her own. Everyone wondered how she would walk on the ramp now. The manger then turned to her and asked her to be their show stopper; rather, all of them requested her on their knees, and she agreed. Finally, the efforts of 20 designers and 100 laborers were not going to waste because the beauty herself was going to be the show stopper tonight.

The finale was arriving, and there she was wearing the brand tonight. She was walking the JMML tonight. The sweet 5-year-old had grown up to be a pretty woman like her mother; she was 19 years old right now, and she was walking her own brand on her own ramps. She was Jovana Maria Martin Lawrence (Martin was her maternal great-grandfather). Jovana wore the pearl-infested dress with the perfect swirl around it, and it was light blue in color. Her hair was tied up in a messy bun, and she wore a tiara of pearls, as was her other jewelry, all made of pure pearls. The most noticeable thing was her heels, which were magical in a majestic blue color with a tint of ocean blue on them, and the ankle band was made of pearls too. But the most unforgettable was her smell; she smelt like a fresh rose just handpicked from the jungle of roses.

No man could ever resist her temptation, and no man could ever take his eyes off her; her beauty had no comparison and no competition; her figure, perfectly maintained, just added masala to her appearance. It was as if the moon had landed on Earth to grace it. They say beauty is power and a smile is its sword, and she just knew where to use it. She then concluded the event by thanking everyone and requesting that the guests attend the afterparty.

At the afterparty, she hosted the guests, which included world-renowned designers and stylists. There were many actors among them, and many were passionate about fashion. They all came from powerful and noble backgrounds who were interested in fashion and J.M.L. JMML was never for sale and had zero shareholders; it was solely owned by Jovana.

Why were people interested in her company? Because she was not just a fashion design company; it was an all-that-can-be designed company; she personally designed many houses and buildings, roads and bridges, cars, and a glorious hotel; a few belonged to her too. She had many branches extending across Asia into Europe and the American continents. She had fame and a name, but very few knew who she was or how she looked; not even the guests at the afterparty knew her.

She lived a secret life as she was under threat constantly. She is very experienced and has three degrees in business and psychology, with work experience spanning about 12 years now. She knew how to deal with business, and she had learned to live a life on her own; basically, she grew up as an orphan without family to care for her. She carved for love and care. Situations and circumstances led to many unwanted events in Rajput's life.

She gets a text from India, and the first thing she does is hop on the flight to India. Who knows what awaits her in India after so many years?
