Being a misunderstood person may not be an easy task... but you can get used to it.
Actually, is getting out of that "bubble" the hardest part.
The matter was simple; Reese Martin didn't want to leave behind her lonely life. She had achieved so much inside her comfort zone that it seemed unfair having to do it now.
But by the other side...
The fortune's heir was back.
That young man who loss all the trust from his own family -and from the society- was back to claim the fortune that Mr. Robert Heize would leave.
John Heize.
Everything that she knew about him was that he was a misunderstood person, just like her, but for the completely opposite reasons.
Reese played fair. However, the moment in that the old Heize -whom she has been the favorite one until now- wrapped the young man in his arms as soon as he saw him going through the door, she knew that her victory was in risk.
And ready to fight... she tied her hair.
Because she liked to live insolated, but that loneliness was also a weakness, she knew it. And she wouldn't let that weakness get into her plans.
Now, the hard part would be... face everyone.
But, what difference does it make?! A fortune is a fortune.
If she had to fight against John Heize for it, she would.
She would stop thinking to finally act. Impulsively. Just like everyone else does.
How was it about "you live just once"?
Well... that.
In where Reese wishes that people would see transparent...
And where John wishes that Reese wouldn't have crystalline eyes.
