ONE: GOOD MORNING, MISS CHENEVERT!

Heldiegard drives while listening to Lady Antebellum's Need You Now. She doesn't normally listen to music while driving but this month is an exemption because she's not in the mood lately since her elder brothers Chance and Chase are not arround, also her parents. Chance and Chase's family are taking a vacation in Malta for no reason. At first, Heldiegard was infuriated but she made up her mind and agree since they were bringing their children. It's not their fault, though. They are parents and they also need time for their family, she thought. And her parents are in Germany visiting a friend who is the father of the owner of Karl-Heinz Medical Incoporated.

This time the music shifted into Whitney Houston's Queen of the Night but she immediately shift it back to Need You Now. Heldiegard needs to relax and a country music would be the best treatment, it reminds her of the countryside back in Gordes. Not all Cheneverts live in the rural city some of them, well all of them live in Gordes. She planned to visit her family there but no is always an option for her, that is because she has a lot of work to be done. Heldiegard is a total workaholic, her family always tease her with that title and she doesn't even mind it. Why? It's factual, that's it.

Minutes after, she arrive at her company and is greeted by all of her employees. Unlike other CEOs, Heldiegard always attend meeting and is very open to all of her employees. Some employees mistook her as a villian but her personallity is soft as a teddy bear. While riding the elevator she suddenly remember that she was supposed to drop by in Raphael's office, Heidi hits her head lightly pressed another number in the elevator. Good thing that the elevator didn't open to the thirtieth floor, her twin brother's office is just below her floor.

When the elevator's door opened she saw a bunch of employees. "Aller de l'avant, Now's your turn," she smiled, gestured a hand and the employees thanked her. When Heldiegard arrive at her brother's office she knocked and there was no response. Maybe he's still not here, anyway, they don't live together and Raphael is not fond of going to work advanced but on time. She inhaled deeply and flagged an employee.

"Excusez-moi, I know you are busy but can you give this to my brother when he arrives," she said.

"Bien sur Mademoiselle," her employee responded. Heidi smiled, thanked her and waved goodbye.

Heidi runs to the elevator and quickly runs to her office. Even though if it is still 6:30 she is always in a rush. Sometimes, her employees would ask her if she's too harsh on herself but she will just smile and tell them that time flies, it doesn't not wait for you.

"Today's a busy day Mademoiselle," Heidi bursts out laughing at her secretary's comment while she puts her bag in the desk.

"Everyday is a busy day, Madame Aubert. You don't need to tell me that. And I need to go to Germany next week at my father's request. Besides in visiting his friend, he also is visiting Dragon Empire in Germany to check if everybody is work well," Heidi said.

"Café, mademoiselle," Madame Aubert said lifting a cup of coffee and sipping it after. Heidi giggles and shakes her head.

"Non, merci. I'm not even a coffee lover myself. Or did you forget about it?" Madame Aubert shrugs who is still drinking her coffee. The day always start like this, Madame Aubert is always ready to cheer her on, she's like a mother figure to her. There was even a time when she accidentally called her mom, but they laughed it off and Heidi reasoned that she was thinking of her mother that's why she said that.

"Bonjour, sister.." Fuller opens the door alongside Amanda and Karen. These three are Heidi's friends, childhood friends in fact. They always do things together and spend time.
