rivenium
A spoiled heiress must investigate her grandmother's death in order to gain back her trust fund, all while discovering how to be her own person and maybe even in falling in love in this rom-com meets murder mystery.
When Jennie Kim, Upper East Side hotel heiress, stumbles out of a gala and upon the scene of her grandmother's murder, her first thought is that the society queen won't be missed for her kind, cookie-baking ways. In fact, she was mean, greedy, and paranoid-so paranoid that she secretly slipped a clause into her will mandating that, should she die an unnatural death, all the family assets get frozen. And if the "unnatural death" isn't explained? Those accounts stay frozen. Practically overnight, Jennie is locked out of her penthouse with no other option than to move in with Lisa, the irritable (yet pretty) daughter of her former nanny. Not only is her apartment cramped, but it doesn't even have a doorman. Or a chef! Jennie needs someone to solve this murder, like, yesterday, so she can get her trust fund back. And Lisa? She needs this murder solved because that's the only way her mother, who toiled for the Kim family for years, will ever get the retirement money she deserves.
Can Jennie (who previously couldn't solve a crossword in the bath on a hungover Sunday) actually solve this murder? And if she does return to her former life of luxury, will it be worth the possibility of losing Lisa?
Author's Note: This is a Jenlisa adaptation. I've rewritten the dialogues and narration in my own words to fit my writing style and the GXG concept, but the plot and overall flow of the story remain the same. Full credit goes to the original author. If the original author ever wishes for me to take this adaptation down, I will respectfully do so. Enjoy reading!
