Laurette was an unsuspecting mediocre teenager who spent hours listening to spiels of her father; for her mother sake, she'd perceive as though she was fond of her father. When her mother went demented about her former boyfriend, she took her daughter across the country just to meet him; she wasn’t aware that Louis had moved on.
She's the victor.
Louis on the other hand was a sinister man; who fooled the tabloids into thinking he was in a literal relationship with Eleanor Calder. He'd impregnated, Maria, Laurette’s mother, during his defiant adolescent years. The juvenile man wasn’t prepared for such a load, resulting in an account of rows between Maria, leaving her soon after with a child in order to attain his dream of being a megastar.
He's the ruffian.
The sound of a tale as such is perceived as rather wretched.
Nonetheless, you're right.
