"My Dear Valerie, all I want is to watch you cry."

The sparkling him who lives in the light would never pay attention to the her who is tainted.

The Apathetic Heiress who had it all— beauty, wealth, and intelligence. That's what everyone saw her as. But beyond that exterior, Valerie Davies was an insecure and paranoid girl who remained obsessed with her first love, Lucian Gray. 

Valerie hid a secret side. If triggered, that side of her wreaked havoc.

He was the light in her dark world, a dazzling and far-fetched dream, and the only one that mattered to her.

Lucian Gray had all he could ask for— a loving family, fame, and wealth. But that happy life of his faced a challenge when his parents are set on having him marry Valerie— the very person he has deep hatred for.

As for him, he wishes to break down that composed Valerie and have her at his mercy.

After that, she composed herself and started to introduce the dresses to Valerie. She went to talk about how great the quality was and which trended.

In her business, it was necessary for Valerie to know about trends. But even so, selecting her own clothes was a foreign concept to her. Instead of something flashy and attractive, she preferred one that was practical— one that wouldn't hinder her movements.
