Audrey is the oldest, Shaun the middle, and Lorelai is the youngest. Children of one of the most prominent families in the world, and their parents only have one rule. They will pay for their children to do whatever they want, as long as one week every month, they come back. During that one week, they host a ball, a different theme every time. The children must come home, dress and act properly, and let their parents show them off at the ball. It's an exclusive invitation, where people fight to be invited. The goal of the dance is to raise money for charities and good causes. Oh, one more catch with the whole "one rule" thing, if they're not wed and settled down by their 30th birthday, the day of, they have to come home, get married, and settle down. Luckily, the parents don't exactly care who they marry or on what principles. They can marry for love, they can marry for money, it does not matter to them. But if they're not married by 30, they must come home to be wed to another prominent, rich family. Audrey, as the oldest, is under pressure to maintain their social status. And is still trying to find love so she isn't forced to marry. Shaun refuses to play by his parents' rules, even though he's already met the love of his life. His main goal is to spend all of his parents' money out of resentment. And Lorelai, well, she managed to fall for the one guy that not only doesn't reciprocate her feelings, but he's also the one guy her parents will never approve of. Will the Everantt children manage to make their parents proud? Well, there's only one way to find out.

As everyone knows from the olden days to the present, people marry people that are up to their standards. It's amazing, yet unrealistically normal. Why shouldn't a person with less fortune have to marry someone with less fortune too? Can't it be like a Cinderella story where the prince and his destined princess meet? This story is based on two Chinese lovers in a very rich society here now in the present. Li Abelle's family were once known in China to own the most richest stock company! But ten years ago, the fame ended with a failed offer of a loan from another close company friend; leaving the Li Company to go bankrupt and for Li Abelle to have to make her own fortune. Ten years has passed and Li Abelle is now a popular model appearing on magazine covers, doing photo shoots, and interviews with several reporters who want to know more about her. Life is just fine till Li Abelle is arranged to be married with another man she cannot love. Her true love was faraway in her mind yet so near in blood relations with her fiancee. . It just seems almost impossible for Abelle to be reunited with her destined. With family, status, and the media getting in the way of everything...Abelle starts to lose hope of ever having at least one date with the man she desires. Then Abelle realizes something important from her friends and current fiancee. What is true love? Reminder: In China, the last names are put in front first before the first names. Like Li Abelle, Li isn't her first name, it's her last. I only made exceptions for James and Jina Chan to have their names first. Also characters Jack Ting, Chelsie Fu, and Liu Fang, are addressed by their first names. Parents and other high-class adults in story are called by their last name first. *This is a fiction story, but all other places, cities, and landmarks here are real. Search them up if you don't believe me. ;)
