A lot of people imagined so many things about Rosalind LeRoy. She must have been a wild heiress or another bombshell blonde with nothing to fill her head. Some supposed she must have had so many torrid affairs with actors and toured Europe with the next Howard Hawks on her arm. 

What a lot of people didn't know was that she was on a leash just like any other studio employee. LeRoy Pictures owned her and her image, and her Daddy made perfectly clear that she was to front the best, effectively spotless reputation. 

Still, she knew how to have fun, and she was just coming into an age where she was ready to give Charles LeRoy the biggest run for his money.

Do you know the poorest woman who ever lived? Yuna moved to the city from a mountain village and took on numerous jobs to support her elderly parents and two twin sisters with special needs. She washed dishes at restaurants, worked as a dog walker, an event mascot, a convenience store cashier, and even on construction sites, doing any labor she could find. However, she could only have a decent meal when other people offered it for free. She had to give up sleep or dinner, sunscreen or lotion, and shampoo or conditioner. So, do you know who? Yuna is too busy to think about it. She could have a little time; she would rather use it to hit the hay. When you thought her life couldn't get worse, her friend sold her to a vile old guy, Gregory Mason. There, she had to gamble to turn the tables, and when she beat Greg, someone took advantage of the opportunity to use her as a piece in his board game. Zachary Avere, the cruelest person on the planet the internet known and heir to the Avere Group, and Victor Collins, the son of a most legendary assassin leader, finally found the right pawn to carry out their scheme. Yuna became prey to their adversaries and a great pawn to formidable people's plans. People who were jealous of her for marrying Zack wished for her demise. And others who knew she was nothing but a tool predicted her devastation. However, little did they know that she could gamble on the table or a racetrack.
