Audrey stepped out of the car like a movie star, her salon-perfect hair framing porcelain features. The staff
materialized to handle her designer luggage while Ivan hovered attentively.
"Are Dad and Mom home?" Her casual tone masked the tension in her shoulders. After the maid, Skylar Sanders,

The marriage had been arranged by their grandfathers years ago.
Three luxury cars pulled up to the Darling residence. Ivan rushed to open the doors.
"Take these to Danielle’s room," Vivian instructed, having spent the morning shopping with her husband.
Everything they saw seemed perfect for their precious daughter.
"Miss Audrey Darling has returned," Ivan informed them.
"Wasn't she supposed to cback next week? Perfect timing for her to meet Danielle!" Vivian headed inside
with Howard, delighted.
