{IN A FANCY JEWELRY STORE, STREETS OF MEXICO CITY}
Lily Rose walked into the upscale jewelry store, determined to find the perfect birthday gift for Xavier and together with some bodyguards that Xavier hired for her to keep her safe or else he killed them all .

A stunning diamond wristwatch caught her eye, over more than 3 million dollars, but she still wanted to take it.

"Excuse me," Lily Rose said to the cashier, "I'd like to see that diamond necklace."

The cashier, raised an eyebrow. "That's a $10,000,000 . I'm sure you can't afford it."

Her expression remained calm. "I'll take it."

"What is your name" Lily Rose asked.

With a proud look and tone."my name is Rachel casagrande, the cashier of this store,This very own famous store of all of Mexico City, owned by Xavier Vincenzo Reyes."

Everybody in the store was whispering about the scene, wondering if Lily Rose is a pupper. Lily Rose could just look at her (Rachel) with distain.

Rachel snickered looking at her plain outfit. "Madam, I don't think you understand. This is high-end jewelry."

One of the bodyguards standing nearby chimed in "Yeah, lady, you're out of your league.",then he faced Lily, " madam, should we deal with her."

"Don't worry she'll soon learn her place",her eyes narrowed. "I'll take it," she repeated.

Rachel huffed. "Fine, let me check if it's available." As Rachel checked the inventory, her attitude grew increasingly rude.

Just as Lily Rose was about to lose patience, a well-dressed man approached. "Is there a problem here?" he asked authoritatively.

Rachel's demeanor changed. "No, sir. Just assisting this... Nice lady."

The Man's gaze locked onto hers, knowing who she is.
"Mrs Reyes, is everything okay?"

Lily Rose's eyes lit up, as she saw one of Xavier's business Partners."Mr. Thompson. Thank you for intervening."

Rachel's eyes widened."Reyes? As in...?",Even everybody in the store was in deep shock and feel pity for Rachel.

Mr. Thompson's voice was icy.
"Yes, you fool. You're speaking to Mrs. Reyes, future wife of Don Reyes, Xavier Vincenzo Reyes."

Rachel's face paled."Oh, I-I apologize."

Her smile was cold. "You should, but I have a second thought, people like you should not be working here or anywhere, to have the store integrity, please fire her from this job, NOW."

Mr. Thompson turned to Rachel.
"Your behavior is unacceptable. You're fired, effective immediately."

Securities escorted Rachel out as she was kicking and screaming loudly for mercy.

"I am so sorry, for what happened, please don't tell Mr Reyes." Mr Thompson apologies.

" Don't worry, I won't, I promise." Lily Rose reassured, then she turned to the expensive wristwatch."please package this and give to one of the bodyguards to hold" with that, she left.

{IN A FANCY BAKERY}
Lily Rose walked into the fancy Bakery, eager to order a custom birthday cake for Xavier. As he waited, she scanned the elegant decor and bustling kitchen.

Suddenly, a familiar figure caught her eye. A woman with piercing grey eyes and a white long hair.

Lily's heart skipped a beat. "Impossible," she whispered.

The man's face was etched in his memory, His long-lost twin sister, Lotus Rose. Presumed dead in the accident 10 years ago with her step... step brother.
