Leena's life was the opposite of the Cinderella story. She toiled hard to support her family. She took classes in the morning, and worked in the evenings. Her routine life took a turn for the worse with Miguel's return and she slipped into an abyss of love and desire. Leena closed her eyes and waited patiently for the fall. She struggled, shed tears. "There's no end to this suffering," she thought. She gave him many opportunities, but he betrayed her time and again, until one day, she finally decided to leave him and let him have a taste of his own medicine; the pain of loss and betrayal. The man beside her narrowed his eyes at the woman and said, "You are going to be mine. Don't think about other men!" Could she ever get out of this mess? Could she retain her happiness after suffering this deep injury to her heart?
As Leena Yang glanced at her watch, she immediately rushed into the dressing room. She threw in her shoulder bag, murmuring to herself, "Don't be late. Don't be late!" There were only five minutes left! Leena Yang threw her sneakers to the side of the dressing room before unzipping her shoulder bag. She dug out some high heels and lingerie.
She opened her locker and took out her suit. After getting dressed up, the image of an innocent college student faded away in the picture. Standing there was a strong business woman ready to take on the world.
Leena Yang Yang tied her long hair in a bun, leaving no strands out. She then took out her sunblock and rubbed it on her face. Without another word, she walked right out of the dressing room. Mary, who was outside waiting for her, was stunned.
"Director Yang, I didn't know you were so fast! It only took you three minutes to change."
Mary was just a waitress, and she was also working under Leena Yang. Mary rushed in to put the other stuff away.
According to the rules of their five-star hotel, waiters must be dressed properly. Except for necessary accessories, other jewelries, including watches, shouldn't be worn. It was a strict directive that everyone must follow.
"I slept late last night, and I woke up late," Leena Yang grumbled, frustrated.
"But you're always on time." Mary blinked in surprise. Normally, Leena Yang was never late. In fact, she was always on time that some might believe she was a robot!
Pursing her lips, Leena Yang didn't bother to reply. She actually stayed up last night because she was finishing up her paper. She didn't go to bed till three in the morning. Finally, she went to the hotel at eight in the morning to organize the cleaning staff, so she was almost late.
For these years, she had kept her life as a student a secret from her co-workers.
Leena Yang strutted out the dressing room, nodding at the waiters passing by. It was then when Lewis Liu, the general manager of the hotel, walked in. Seeing that she was in such high spirits, he waved his hand and pulled her into his office. "Promise your Uncle Lewis that you'll finish your work this month. I'll introduce better jobs for you after."
Leena Yang frowned. "Doesn't Simon want me working here?" Simon was the boss of the hotel.
"No." Lewis Liu shook his head.
Leena Yang spread her arms exasperatedly. "I've done my job well here. It's been six years and I know for a fact no one does this job better than I do. I still want this job."
"Your father died dear, and I feel obligated to take care of you. You entered the hotel at such a young age! Our hotel may have strict regulations for its clients and management, but we can't go off pissing a lot of people. You might not get married in the future!" he said worriedly.
Leena Yang knew exactly what he was saying. He was talking about the incident wherein she got into a fight with a rich man. The man was being incredibly unreasonable with his harassment to the other waitress. Leena Yang had to step in and solve the issue, but she had inadvertently offended him. The man had threatened to take his revenge, but she only blacklisted him in response. Since then, he wasn't allowed to enter the hotel anymore.
She sighed. "Uncle Lewis, I've never expected that I'll live a good life after my father's death. Besides, as long as my mother and brother are living well, then you don't have to worry about me. Let me work."
Lewis Liu wanted to say more, but she interrupted him. "Uncle Lewis, you don't have to introduce me to other jobs. This place suits me, plus I often have classes." She intended to earn money enough for her to get a master's degree.
After that, she'd find a well-paid job and jumped out the seas of poverty. The world is a cruel place, especially when you aren't part of the middle-class.
Lewis Liu sighed, knowing he wasn't going to get anywhere arguing with her.
Leena Yang was from a rich family. Unfortunately, her father committed suicide. After the incident, her elder brother had debts to pay due to his failed business. From then on, it was as if she'd grown through a reversal of the Cinderella story, and it straightened Leena Yang out. It became her responsibility to take care of her sick mother and twelve-year-old brother. She had classes in the day, and she had to work in the evenings.
Although she had a tough time during her college life, she still received full marks!
When Leena Yang strolled down the corridor of the hotel, the past crept up her mind. Her smile faltered slightly. Her father's properties had all been confiscated after the incident, and her brother had fled for the debts that had piled up against him. This was why her family moved into a shabby house in the small alleys. She'd been working ever since she was in high school, so there wasn't a job that she wasn't unfamiliar with. When she entered the university, she asked Lewis Liu to hire her in the hotel starting as a waiter. Now, she was a department supervisor. Many people had come to respect her.

The Ling Group was not the only group dominating the entertainment circle, but also they had stems in different sectors that their influence was infinite. Today, a group of rich men came to the Heaven Hotel for some fun. It was hard to find out who they were. The rich didn't easily reveal their identity, but as far as Lewis Liu knew, they were well-distinguished.
He was the most powerful man in the entertainment industry; she was just a young and unknown actress. However, his dominating pursuit of her dragged Melissa into his world of deception and seduction. Her attempts to escape from him were thwarted at every turn, and she failed again and again. Finally, she capitulated and swallowed her bitter humiliation. However, adding insult to injury, she discovered that she was merely a cheap substitute for another woman in his life. Resolving to run away with another man leads to him having a mad-dog moment as he tries to win her back at any cost. It is then that Melissa realized his love and desire for her had escalated beyond her wildest imaginings. How should she choose? Return to him or start a new life with another man?
