00:00I grew up abroad. My mother feared I might marry a foreign man, so she arranged an engagement for
00:05me with a talented and handsome man in float on. She insisted that I return home to get engaged.
00:11I came back and started shopping for an engagement dress at a luxury boutique.
00:15I selected an off-white strapless gown and decided to try it on.
00:19Suddenly, a woman nearby glanced at the dress in my hand and told the saleswoman,
00:23that's a unique design. Let me try it. The saleswoman immediately yanked it out of my hands.
00:31I protested indignantly. Excuse me, I was here first. Don't you understand the principle of
00:36first come, first served? Or do you just not care about common decency? The woman scoffed and retorted,
00:42this dress costs $188,000. Do you really think a broken body like you can even afford it?
00:48I'm Lucas Goodwin's sister in all but blood. He's the chairman of Goodwin's group. In float on,
00:55the Goodwin family sets the rules. What a coincidence. Lucas Goodwin was my fiance.
01:00I immediately called him and said, hey, your sister in all but blood just stole my engagement
01:04dress. Do something about it. The term sister in all but blood implied less than innocent
01:10connotations. If Lucas Goodwin failed to give me a proper explanation on that day,
01:14I would cancel the engagement banquet. To my surprise, Lucas responded coldly.
01:19Who are you? Since when does a stranger like you get to question my relationship with Vivian?
01:25I was about to tell him that I was his fiance, but he hung up abruptly. I became angry. How
01:30dare he not
01:31save my contact information? Meanwhile, Vivian Morrow, who was standing beside me, grinned triumphantly.
01:37You wench. Did you really think having Lucas's number makes you special? Keep dreaming.
01:44She looked at me with open contempt. Even the Janners at Goodwin's group dress better than you.
01:49I had always preferred simple, comfortable clothes and never cared about brand names.
01:54I never thought that would give people a reason to look down on me.
01:57What era are you even living in? To think you'd still be judging people by their looks.
02:02Lucas must be out of his mind to call you his sister in all but blood.
02:05My mood for shopping was ruined, thanks to her antics. I grabbed the gown and headed straight
02:10to the checkout counter. The saleswoman hesitated before saying,
02:14Miss, I'm sorry, but we prioritize our members first.
02:17Vivian smirked and slammed her shiny gold membership card onto the counter.
02:21Only people who've spent over a million get this card. What's a broke loser like you even doing here?
02:27I was not usually one to pick fights, but on that day, Vivian had really crossed a line.
02:32I pulled out a black card and handed it to the saleswoman.
02:36I suppressed my anger and said, sign me up for a membership.
02:39Then bagged the gown.
02:41Vivian glared at the saleswoman and threatened, the Goodwin's own Floaten.
02:46If you sell her that gown today, I'll have Luke's buy this store out tomorrow.
02:50The saleswoman shrank back timidly and said,
02:53Miss, I'm just an employee. I can't risk offending Goodwin's group.
02:57Several onlookers turned to me and offered me advice and whispers.
03:01That's Mrs. Moreau. I've seen her around.
03:03Lucas Goodwin's oils were rotten. You should just let it go.
03:06The last time someone crossed her, Goodwin's group drove them into bankruptcy.
03:10You may have some money, but it's pocket change compared to Goodwin's group.
03:13Just apologize to Mrs. Moreau now and beg her to spare you.
03:17Flattered by their words, Vivian's ego swelled like a balloon.
03:20You wench, get on your knees and say, I'm a worthless poser and I'm sorry.
03:26Maybe then I'll consider letting you off the hook.
03:29At 26 years of my life, I had never encountered anyone audacious enough to act so arrogantly in front of
03:35me.
