This is about a girl who's got everything she wants, this is about a girl who can have anything in a blink of an eye, this is about a girl that you wanted to be friends with in high school. But that's what everyone thought.
Meet Gabrielle Gold or Belle Smith as what she calls herself. Child of the most richest family in New Orleans, the family that everybody worships, expect it wasn't like that in Belle's mind. She hated the famous life, she didn't like the way people treated her family as royalty she hated it so much that she changed her name and lived alone away from her parents.
Belle lived in New Orleans most her life as the perfect daughter and gods' child that everyone saw her as.
She introduced herself to everyone who didn't know her as Belle Smith to avoid attraction to herself.
Her parents bought her everything they can think of, but they can never understand her hatred for wealth and money. They even threatened her and scare her but that didn't faze her. She learnt acting as she grew up, she was taught 3 more languages since she was bound to take over their business one day. And she used it to her advantage.
Even as wealthy as she was, she was humble, generous and kind. She didn't used her status as a rich kid to rule over the ones who didn't have money,
She grew up parentless, yes she has them both as parents but she rarely saw them. She was always with a nanny, or a babysitter or anything with that line of work. She barely saw her parents who don't even show up on her birthday physically, they showered her with gifts but that just pushed her more to hate the work they do. Pushed her to hate how selfish they are, hated their love and greed for money.
Belle was happy and content with the way she was living away from them. She knew that, that way she'll attract less to herself when she's alone.
But a deal seals it all.
