Chapter 1 - THE PAST

I opened my eyes to a loud bang which was coming from outside my room, then I looked at the time on my table closed to my head it is just four in the morning. I came down from my bed still feeling sleepy as my eyes were not fully opened, I went straight to where the sound was coming from, there I got the shock of my life as my eyes opened wide,

I have been living with my uncle and his family for the past two years, uncle Yue Jinnan is now the head of the Yue mansion, followed by the wife Lee Wan and their children Yue Fang and Yue Rong. Yue Fang is the Acting CEO of the Yue company as I will only be allowed to take over the company when I'm 20yrs of age. Yue Rong is an actress in a big company in Country D, she is beautiful and have that curves that any man will drool over.

FLASHBACK

Before my parents died I was studying business abroad in Harvard university, I came home after graduating with a very good result because I am smart and intelligent, I finished studying business when I was sixteen years old as I had so many scholarsh.i.p.s given to me by schools, after arriving home, my dad throw a surprise party at our mansion, my dad then was the CEO of the Yue corporation, the Yue corporation is one of the biggest companies in country D, my Dad succeeded my grandfather as the CEO of the company's thereby letting his younger brother be the chairman of the company, after my father took over the company became a very successful one and was then know all over Country D and beyond.

During the party my dad introduced me as his beloved daughter and also made the announcement that I'm going to be the one to succeed after him but it is stated in the papers that I will only be the next CEO when I'm twenty, unknown to him that there were to pairs of eyes glaring at him, my uncle thought my dad might give him the opportunity to become the next successor or at least give it to his son Yue Fang, never in his wildest dreams did he think my dad will make a woman the next CEO of the company.

even though I wasn't truly interested in business I had to comply because my dad already persuaded me to go study business which I did because of the love I have for both my parents.

After the party things went on smoothly my Dad and his brother's relationship grew stronger, even though there is a great anger and jealousy in uncle Yue Jinnan's heart he still kept it down in his heart and continue to behave Happy with everything.

I never knew that my uncle's family hate us a lot, because I and Yue Rong are very good friends, I always help her in rehearsing her roles in films and also gives her some key point in acting, Even though I studied business, I have always wanted to be a model in the entertainment industry but I had to give up just to make my parents happy.

on the other hand there is also Yue Fang who treats me like his own sister he always gives me good advice and also tries his best to teach me more about the company as I'm going to be the next CEO, but I didn't know all these were all Acting, the Yue family certainly do deserve an acting trophy.

TWO YEARS LATER

All their acting ended as my mum and dad met with a tragic accident which claimed both their lifes, I was just coming back from the office with brother Yue Fang when I heard this terrible news due to shocked I fell down and lost my consciousness, I was later brought to the hospital, after continuous checkup the doctor said I have fallen in to a comma.

After about a month I regained myself and I was brought back home only to find out that my uncle and his family are now staying at our mansion, and they started treating me indifferent, even brother Yue Fang who I respect the most started treating me like tin air, I went up to my room only to see my things thrown outside my room and the door is locked. I saw one of the maid passing by and asked what happened to my room, they said Yue Rong will be staying there from now onwards.

I matched downstairs with anger to question everyone what was happening, only answer I got was a slap from my aunt, then she told me I will be staying in the guest room from now on that I have no right over this house and if I dare to report this outside the house they will not hesitate to kill me.

with tears streaming down my chick I ran upstairs packed my stuff to the guest room and locked myself inside,

I felt miserable all the people I called my family are the one against me, it has hardly reach two months since my parents died and they have already took over the house. after crying for over five hours I fell asleep and woke up at dawn, I came down from the bed went to the bathroom wash up and started arranging my clothes.

in my luggage I saw a piece of red envelop that is sealed, I wanted to open it but my stomach made a very loud sound that I had to live whatever I was doing to go eat downstairs.

I went straight to the kitchen and saw the maids cooking breakfast I helped in preparing it and the took some for myself and eat before retreating back to my bed room.

but not long after I heard a knock on the door followed by the opening of the door I opened my eyes only to see my aunt in front of me glaring at me like a hungry lion who wants to devour his prey, before I could say anything she grab my hair very hard and tossed me our of the bed I landed on my back and felt a sharp pain on my waist, then she started yelling saying I'm not staying in the mansion for free that I should go downstairs to work I got angered by her words and wanted to retaliate but I felt something hit my stomach I looked up and found brother Yue Fang staring at me, hot blood runs from my head to toe, the he shouted at me and said I am a maid in this house and I should behave like one and left the room with the mother trailing after him. I became speechless, in my own house I am now a slave!!!

and that was it I started working as a slave for my uncle and his family they didn't have mercy on me at all, sometimes I ate just once in a day and those are left overs and sometimes no food at all

I was even worse than a maid.
