**BOOK 2 – Chapter 1**
As the year drew to a close, I faced a pivotal decision. I had been offered a tempting opportunity to work abroad on a prestigious fashion show, a chance that many would envy. Yet, I chose to decline it, prioritizing my family over career ambitions. My heart was set on returning home to provide the bridal makeup for my brother’s new wife—a moment I had eagerly anticipated. However, upon my arrival, I was met with a question that struck me like a bolt from the blue. Eliza, with a casual yet pointed demeanor, inquired whether I was still a virgin.
My eyes instinctively fell to her pronounced belly, a clear indication of her condition. I wondered if she feared I might mock her for marrying while pregnant. In a moment of honesty, I admitted that I was not a virgin.
What happened next was utterly unexpected.
In a fit of rage, she swept my carefully arranged makeup products off the table, sending them crashing to the floor in a cacophony of shattered hopes.
“Do you not understand that today is my wedding day?” she spat, her voice laced with venom. “How dare a filthy woman like you even think of touching me?!”
“Go find someone pure to do my makeup! If your bad luck rubs off on me, my husband will have a word with you!” she continued, her indignation palpable.
“And take your trashy makeup with you! I refuse to have secondhand items tainted by someone like you!”
I stood there, momentarily frozen, my gaze fixed on her swollen belly. How could a woman who found herself pregnant before marriage dare to label anyone as ‘unclean’?
After a beat of silence, I collected my scattered belongings from the floor, my heart heavy with disbelief. I reached for my phone and dialed my brother, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside me.
“Your wife believes I’m dirty,” I stated plainly. “Consequently, I will not be doing her makeup.”
“And that Maserati I gifted you? I’ll be reclaiming it. Your wife insists that anything from me brings bad luck,” I added, the weight of my words settling in the air between us.
His response was immediate, a mixture of confusion and concern. “There must be some misunderstanding. Your sister-in-law, she—”
Before he could finish, Eliza snatched the phone from my hand, her fury evident as she hurled it to the ground.
“How dare you make a call in my dressing room?!” she exclaimed, her voice rising in pitch.
“What? Planning to summon all those men you’ve slept with to defend you?” I shot back, my temper flaring.
“You’re insufferable! My perfect wedding is ruined because of you!” she cried, her frustration spilling over.
At that moment, the bridesmaids, drawn by the commotion, rushed into the room. Their faces froze in shock as they beheld the chaos of makeup strewn across the floor.
Eliza, ever the drama queen, pointed an accusatory finger at me. “Who arranged this? Whose brilliant idea was it to have someone unchaste do my makeup?!”
**BOOK 2 – Chapter 1**
“Such disgusting bad luck!” one of the bridesmaids exclaimed, her nose wrinkling in distaste as she eyed me.
“No wonder I caught a whiff of something foul the moment I entered. Turns out it was a slut in the room,” another chimed in, her voice dripping with disdain.
“What are you still doing here? Get out!” another urged, her tone sharp.
“Exactly! Eliza is the true daughter of the Campbell family—the one they just discovered! Thanks to her, the Campbell Group’s stock price has been soaring for months!”
“Offend her, and you won’t last a day in San Antonio!” they warned, their loyalty to Eliza evident.
I stood there, my phone clutched tightly in my hand, a cold smile creeping across my lips.
Campbell Group?
The only reason their stock price had been climbing was due to my own efforts. I had learned about my brother’s fiancée long before anyone else, maneuvering some strings overseas to give the company a temporary boost.
I never imagined Eliza would wield this as a weapon against me, flaunting her newfound power.
Little did she know, if I wished for that stock price to plummet, it would be a mere flick of my wrist.
With that thought swirling in my mind, I picked up a broken palette from the floor, my voice low and deliberate. “Perhaps you should first consider how you intend to compensate me for this mess?”
Each item scattered on the floor was from the most luxurious brands, a collection that easily surpassed a million dollars.
Eliza erupted into laughter, a mocking sound that echoed through the room. “A gold digger is still a gold digger. Exposed for not being a virgin and breaking down immediately?”
“Now she’s even trying to extort money,” one of the bridesmaids added, her tone dripping with scorn.
They kicked aside my luxury products, their laughter ringing in my ears.
“Look at these brands—never seen or heard of them. They must be cheap knockoffs,” one remarked, her disdain palpable.
“Thank goodness Eliza caught this early. Imagine if she had let this woman touch her face—it would have been ruined!” another chimed in, their voices full of mock concern.
“And who knows what diseases a woman like her carries? Using her things? Absolutely revolting!”
I chose to ignore their taunts, focusing instead on documenting the damage.
The loss was significant, easily over a million—ample grounds for a lawsuit.
“What? Cat got your tongue?” Eliza’s voice dripped with triumph as I remained silent, my resolve hardening.
**BOOK 2 – Chapter 1**
Eliza, in a fit of frustration, kicked at the hem of my dress, her actions reflecting her desperation to regain control.
Conclusion
In the aftermath of chaos, I stood amidst the remnants of my shattered dreams, my heart heavy yet resolute. The laughter of Eliza and her bridesmaids echoed in my ears, a cruel reminder of their disdain. However, beneath the weight of their mockery, a spark ignited within me—a fierce determination to reclaim my narrative. I had chosen family over ambition, but in this moment, I realized that my worth was not defined by their judgment. The makeup strewn across the floor was not merely a loss of material; it symbolized the strength I had yet to fully embrace. I would not be silenced or belittled by their perceptions. Instead, I would rise from the ashes of this humiliation, ready to wield my own power.
As I documented the damage, the weight of my decision began to shift from burden to liberation. I understood that the true essence of my journey lay not in the glitz of high fashion but in the authenticity of my spirit. I was no longer just a woman defined by her choices but a force to be reckoned with, capable of influencing the very foundations of the world around me. The whispers of the past, the judgments cast upon me, would not dictate my future. With each broken palette I collected, I felt the shackles of their scorn loosening, replaced by a newfound resolve to carve my own path. I would harness this moment, transforming it into a catalyst for my growth, uniting the fragments of my identity into a powerful force that could not be ignored.
