Imelda's Pov
I kept admiring the dress I was wearing on the mirror hanged inside our poorly decorated bedroom. The dress is actually very expensive together with the shoe I was wearing.
It was bought by my fiance Andrew Sebastian, the only son of the wealthy family.
He's the love of my life... My Prince Charming😘😍
Actually today, am going to their family mansion for the very first time.
His dad is late so he's going to introduce me to his mom who was highly respected being the wife of a senator and owner of lots of estates, companies and so on.
I was really tensed, I just hope she likes me
Nana how do I look? I asked spinning around slowly.
Ooh my granddaughter is so beautiful... My grandma who sat on the bed arranging clothes said and I blushed.
Am really nervous Nana... I said but Grandma laughed
Don't be my dear, you are absolutely gorgeous and am sure Andrew's mom will love you instantly... Grandma assured as i nodded in agreement.
Well, my name is Imelda Rodriguez, am 23 years old....sad to say am an orphan so the one person I have as a relative is my Grandma Eunice, but I call her Nana.
She is the one I grew up with after mother and father died a car accident. Nana was only able to train me in high school but I couldn't attend college cos she has no money.
So I had no choice than to join my Nana in her plantation work for us to fend.
Purrrrrrr...... That is Andrew's car horn blowing loudly.
Imelda! Imelda!! Grandma yelled loudly as I quickly put on the shoes and rushed out.
Bye Nana! I said waving at Nana who smiled at Andrew and I
Nana take good care of yourself OK... Andrew said and Nana nodded.
Love get into the car... Andrew said and opened the car door as i hopped in and he also entered the car and drove off.

As we drove close to the Sebastian's mansion, I became more than nervous.
Andrew am really scared.... I said breaking the silence
It's written all over you Imelda, come on babe! You shouldn't be, look my mom is human just like you are so there's no need being afraid... Andrew assured me and he pecked my cheek.
I only smiled in anxiety....
I love you Imelda! Just bear this in mind alright... He reassured and I nodded
Minutes later, we drove into the Sebastian's mansion.
My jaw dropped in awe... It looked like I was in paradise.
It was more like a palace, I kept looking around in shock as Andrew held me back my hand and we walked into the mansion.
Lady Morgana's Pov
I was sitting on my large soft bed with my desktop computer when one of the maids walked in.
My lady! Sir Andrew is here.... Suzy the maid said as i nodded and turned to leave.
Wait! I ordered as she turned to me
Yes ma'am! She answered
Is Daisy awake? I asked anxiously
No! She's gone to bed... She said still standing in front of me.
What are you still standing there for? Get lost!! I yelled at her as she quickly rushed out of the room
**
I walked downstairs straight to the sitting room, I saw the peasant girl sitting with Andrew.
Good evening ma'am.... She quickly greeted me and stood up to touch my fist.
Enough! I shunned her rudely and Andrew frowned.
Mom this is Imelda she's my fiancee, Love this is my mom... Andrew said as she smiled at me but I frowned.
So this is the wife you told me you have found? I asked giving Imelda a dangerous look as she looks away in fear.
Mom please... Andrew said
Now tell me about your parents? I asked not even sitting down or letting her sit down.
My parents are late ma'am, I live with my grandma.... Imelda said in tears but who cares?
What the hell is actually wrong with Andrew? Of all the beautiful girls here in Manila why should he choose this low life bitch as a wife... I thought
Really? I laughed mockingly as tears streamed down her cheeks
Mom stop it! Andrew shouted angrily
Mommy! Who's that? A voice said from behind, it was Daisy... My only daughter and Andrew's only sister.
Ooh! Is she the new maid you employed from the agency? Daisy asked as Andrew got very angry as he gave Daisy a resounding slap
What the f**k? I yelled in shock as i quickly pushed Andrew aside
You slapped me? Daisy asked fuming with anger
And I will slap you again if your manners remain absent... Andrew said
No Andrew! That's enough... Imelda managed to speak
Listen Andrew over my dead body will you marry this gold digger you called your fiancee... I said in disgust
Is this thing his fiancee? Seriously mommy? I can't believe this, my friends are gonna laugh at me if they hear this... Andrew Sebastian of all people is getting married to a peasant, dirty, poor, haggard thing... Daisy said as Andrew made to hit her but Imelda stopped him.
That's enough Andrew! I can't take this anymore... Imelda screamed in agony as she picked up her cheap bag and rushed out of the mansion in tears.
I won't forgive you for this mom and you Daisy...Andrew shouted as he rushed out too.
You know mommy! I didn't know that Andrew lacks good taste.... Daisy said as she sat on the cushion with the remote control.
He thinks I will accept that useless thing? Andrew will get married to the governor's daughter Julie and that's final... I said
Imelda's Pov
I have never been so humiliated...
I feel like some piece of trash, like a useless person...
They were so mean, cruel and heartless.. Just because I come from a poor family.
Her words kept drumming and resounding in my ear.
I didn't stop running, it was raining heavily but I didn't mind.
Imelda! Imelda!! I heard Andrew calling me from behind but I paid no attention to him and I didn't stop running.
I was already wet from the rain.
"This peasant girl "those words of lady Morgana kept ringing in my ear....
