Prologue
That night, on one of the mid-spring nights, is the season when flowers bloom. The leaves of the trees thrive after a long winter, and a woman is sitting on a long, soft, quality sofa in the lounge area of a five-star hotel. The moonlight, shining brightly because it was in the complete moon phase, entered the room where the woman was and shone on her smooth, white skin.
The long dark brown hair, deliberately plucked, moved beautifully whenever the woman’s head looked right and left like a silk scarf. The woman once again glanced at the graceful watch looped around her right wrist before gazing up at the night sky adorned by beautiful, magnificent skyscrapers through the glass walls, showing a pair of dark brown irises filled with anticipation from the reflection.
Luna Alicia is twenty-eight years old. At that young age, she already had a brilliant reputation that cannot be doubted. Many men vied for her attention, and many women envied her fame. Her wealth is beyond question. Living a life of luxury and wealth is like a gift after that woman’s hard struggle. She’s even ranked among the most successful young women on one of the best-known sites.
Luna is a famous influencer and young businessman who opened her beauty brand successfully. Of course, she earned that position and reputation very hard. During her youth, she had to work day and night only for everyday meals. Being an orphan and living in an orphanage is one of the reasons Luna succeeds; she doesn’t want to live forever in poverty and dependence on others.
When she was old enough, Luna decided to leave the orphanage. After leaving that horrible place, Luna worked haphazardly, washing dishes at restaurants and newspaper sellers. She eventually became a waitress and owned a small apartment in the suburbs. Luna is indeed happy to see new things and includes art lovers.
Ever since childhood, she has aspired to travel the world. So, when the opportunity came, she immediately took advantage of it by going around the place to learn new things so that she could fill in her personal social media account with her travels.
Her travels initially limited her to easy-to-reach places and museums to discuss art. She then expanded out of town and ended with overseas travel. All of her followers love the content Luna gives them. She also always had ideas for her content, so Luna became more popular.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Of course, her efforts paid off, making her one of the influencers with quite a significant income. The general public recognizes this and can travel worldwide to explore the various arts that exist to fill its content.
Even from the results of her phone shots and recordings, which were quite far from the most sophisticated phone at that time to high-quality cameras, and the fact that she ended up having a crew and manager, it was a significant achievement for Luna.
She no longer works day and night to raise money and can only make money with her hobby and interest in art. She is widely known, her entire content is increasingly popular with many people, and her wealth is increasing. Then, she decided to attend college with an art department to add to her knowledge. Years of self-study in art have helped her immensely in her studies in college, allowing Luna to graduate faster than others.
Many people say that she is so lucky. Even her manager, Nicole, says that Luna has a great fortune. Only some people can be as fortunate as her. Luna responded positively to Nicole’s words that everything she feels now results from her hard work for many years, breaking her bones, and letting go of the most important thing in her life: herself.
She doesn’t have time to rest. After school, she works as a waitress; if her waitressing time is over, Luna will work for her next job. She only sleeps for four hours every day. On weekends, she’ll be busy working extra jobs or creating content by going somewhere where access is easy and affordable. That’s what she did in the past, the constant struggle.
Luna indeed only sometimes depended on her income as an influencer and content creator, so she decided to have a long discussion with her closest friend and manager. After a lengthy conversation, she decided to do business and create a cosmetic beauty brand and skincare line called ‘The Angel.’
Due to Luna’s reputation, intense promotion, the right target market segment, and affordable price, the brand is selling hard, increasing its wealth.
Luna is undoubtedly grateful for her achievements. Especially after her business, Luna earned the nickname ‘the youngest female billionaire.’ It’s like she’s on a cloud. Every day, she comes to elite parties. All marveled at her hard work, achievements, and beauty. Luna, an orphan raised in an orphanage, can show the world that a child like herself can also succeed and have the right to stand among the elites of her country.
Now, she is invited to an exclusive event, and only certain people will accept the invitation. The event was a fundraising event for treating children with Cancer and other chronic diseases organized by the Rozen family, a family of conglomerates known for its reputation and business empire centered on the property sector, such as Estate and the already well-known construction business in America and England.
The fundraising was carried out under the concept of auctioning antiques. In addition to art, Luna was recently also fond of antiques, which resulted from her visit to one of the museums in Beijing.
The museum she visited exhibited a collection of antiques worth millions of dollars dating back to the Ming Dynasty. Luna fell in love with the beauty and aesthetics of the displayed items, eventually becoming one of the antique enthusiasts.
After all, antiquities also have priceless art; even vases dating back to the Middle Ages have their artistic value, which is difficult to find in modern times.
So Luna, as a fan of art and antiques, when hearing about the event from Nicole, immediately decided to attend and postpone her trip to Egypt because she heard that the items to be auctioned at this event were rare and difficult to find anywhere. She can’t wait to see what items will be auctioned at the event.
