Cassandra's POV

I was only twelve when I was dragged out of my father's life. My father blamed me for everything including my mother's death. That's a long story on how she died. luckily my father did not send me away empty but with money to live for 65 years. And
I wasn't alone I had my own guards, maids, servants, chef, hairdresser and many more people to take care of me and the place where I will be living in.

Gazing at this strange land I wonder where the pilot was taking me. I heard a voice " welcome to Florida madam here is where you will be staying for the rest of your life." Hearing that made me think about my father. "Did he love me, maybe he didn't love me at all, no don't say that Cass father loves you with all his heart, if he didn't love you he would have killed you". I said to my self, knowing that dad did the right thing. Keeping me away from him would protect me from him. And I would just remind him of mom.

The plane had landed and I wasn't allowed to enjoy my first steps into this new city. I was rushed into a limo with  my things and the limo drove off

It was a long journey to my destination. I didn't know where I was going when the limo stopped. The limo door was opened by the  driver. And when I stepped outside I was surprised. I couldn't believe my eyes, "Am i going to live in a mansion all by my self. With the maids and everyone who came with me" I asked the driver. "Yes, this is where you will live with everyone who came with you" the driver said.
When I got inside of the mansion,  there was a big hall in front of my face. "Hello madam I am your room maid let me show you around," one of the maids said. Hearing the word madam from her made me angry inside ,I hated when they call me madam or miss or mistress or never mind. "Call me Cass miss and what should I call you" I replied. "Call me Mss. Jane" she replied. Mss Jane showed me around the place. This mansion had many rooms: a room for winter, spring and many other seasons and activities. There were also rooms and apartments that every other mansion I visited had.

I felt tired, and I asked Mrs. Jane where my room was. she pointed the direction and I went the way she pointed. I had reached a passage with doors I wondered which door was to my room. So I began walking forward until I reach a door with my name engraved in it. Above my engraved name, there was a key taped to the door. On the key, there was a pretty bow tied around it. I assumed that it was the key to my door and it was .  I got inside the room, it was huge, modern fashion and very elegant. Seeing this had reminded  me of home my room which was bigger than this a bit old fashioned and filled with technologies. Thinking about the room reminded me of mother and father. That just upset my joy, and I just slammed the door behind me and ran to the bed crying myself to sleep.

I grew up like any other rich kid going to school going to many places, But I had my ways of doing things. I graduated from Oxford University with a business degree and I am now working at the Millar's company as the secretary.
You would find this very alarming, since I'm so rich I'm supposed to have great connections. You'd imagine me spear heading some great company, but for me it was different. Even though I received monies for an average life expectancy, I desired to discover for myself. Of course I won't  find love,and what better way to do so other than going out to life, experiencing my dreams and desires, and not the ones my father fostered in my home.
