The moment Victor heard that familiar voice, a chill ran down his spine. The only person he feared more than his grandfather was his older sister, Rebecca.
Since they were kids, Rebecca had always known how to put him in his place. While he was busy stuck in video games, she was out there collecting awards. His grades were abysmal, while hers were always at the top. By her freshman year of colleg she was already interning at the family business as their grandfather’s assistant.

Rebecca felt it and her heart sank-Yvette was complicated as she expected. “Victor, get over here.”
Victor’s face darkened-with all eyes on him, Rebecca showed no concern for his feelings. But disobeying her was tough, so he walked over obediently. As he passed Winona, she instinctively reached out to him, grabbing his arm.
“Winona, you….” Victor hesitated. He didn’t want to go over there either.
“In front of everyone, Ms. Chambers, maybe it’s best if we stop this tug-of-war. It’s just not a good look, Rebecca said sharply
Winona’s eyes turned red again, defiance creeping into her voice Rebecca, I’m already engaged to Victor. I…”
