1 CHAPTER 1- How it all started!

Men crave for so many things, like Money of which they hold at high esteem, Power, Wealth and so many other things.... And I Ae-Cha was brought into some kind of bondage by my father's greed and choice, and it all started a few years ago.....

My father Sung-Ho was a very wealthy man, I Ae-Cha have always lived the life of a princess, my birth in my family which only consisted of my father, my mother Ha-eun was a blessing to behold, on the day of my birth I was celebrated just like the birth of a princess, as I grew up quite fine due to the kind of wealth my father had, our family made a name in our community and the society as a whole, I was also treated differently in our society, not really differently in a good way, children disliked me for no reason.

I had maids at my every beck and call, I got everything I wanted before even asking my life was literally perfect but!.... unfortunately I wasn't well groomed, with time my both parents became too busy to show me the parental love, affection and discipline that every child is pertained to get, instead I was left in the hands of nannies and maids. In school I was hated, nobody wanted to be friends with me due to the fact I was from a very rich family, I rode to school in classy cars and securities, it's not like I wanted any of that, but jealousy filled the hearts of all my classmates both in middle-school and high-school, and because of the special treatments I got from teachers that made everything more worse, I started developing inferiority complex and anxiety, I was shamed many times when i tried to stand up for myself in school and I was used to getting bullied and I cried a lot.

Some years later, after I graduated from high-school I pleaded with my parents to send me to the States to study, without further hesitation they both agreed and everything was arranged and a month later I was accepted in NYU (NEW YORK UNIVERSITY) to study the medical course of my choice and from the day i step foot out of Seoul my lifestyle changed!

I became a badass, I became mean and rude to almost everyone in college I knew what I was doing wasn't right but still I was trying to act tough due to how much I was bullied in school I wasn't gonna let that happen in college too, and due to my affluent I was able to get away with everything and every trouble I caused even as a lady, I bullied almost anybody that wronged me, and if I never added I was a sophisticated beauty at-least that was what I heard from everyone almost every-time, and as I grew I used that to my advantage. In my final year in college I was picked among the most beautiful ladies to run a beauty contest and I came out first, thereafter I was picked by a modelling agency to do the runway and model different brands of clothes and it came out a huge success I was going viral in NY and I had lot's of fans too, I graduated months later with a Summa cum laude Degree in Medical Science, everyone got surprised including my parents, how I became so successful even with all the distractions I had in joggling both my modelling career and my studies. My so called business tycoon and once loving parents gave diverse excuses for not attending my graduation almost all my graduations they hardly attend them, they sent my Aunt Se-Wa like they always do to come on their behalf, and I was already used to her filling the gap of a guardian in my life.

After my graduation I decided to learn a skill of my own, because in NY I had freedom to do anything I wanted not like being caged in a big mansion with no one to talk to, growing up in that house made me learn how to talk to animals, creating imaginary friends, I can't go for walks without a bodyguard behind me, I was constantly driven in a flashy cars with maids all around me that wouldn't give me a break. I enrolled in a baking class for two months, and my way of relating with people rudely reduced i became more friendly, I got to interact with different kinds of people there, and for the first time in my life I made close female friends, Isa and Bel, even if I was the most affluent amongst them we all treated each other equally, Bel enrolled at the baking class because she wanted to clear her head and try something new, while Isa was writing an article about baked foods and that's how we all met, some months later we all moved in together in a condominium, I and Bel worked at the hospital on day shifts, Isa was an online content creator more like she did blogs and so on and she was always home, our weekends were always saved for girl's out or parties!.... we got to help each other a lot. Meanwhile, back in Seoul my father's business was falling apart bit by bit without his notice, before he noticed it was much too late, my father started borrowing loans from different sources in order to cover up the patches to stop the business from crumbling.

Back in NY I was living my life to the fullest with my girls!, till one day I got an unusual call from my mom in the middle of the night. "Seriously mom, what do you want?" I said crossly half-awake and half-asleep because my mom hardly called me and even if she wanted to call why would she pick the night to call me, "Ae-Cha,....youu....your dad collapsed!" she said and burst into tears. I know I haven't really been bonding with my family for years but this news broke my heart into a million pieces I was heartbroken!, What happened to him, I never heard anything about him being sick...
