14 years ago,
It is the day that a maid has given birth to a child. The maid gave the child a name which is Elena Morgan. Morgan is the last name of the Baron's family. Elena's mother Sonia is one of the wife of Baron, David Morgan. David truly loved Sonia and that is why other wives were jealous of Elena's mother.
Elena grew up happily around until she turned three years old. Everything changed when Sonia became unwell. David stopped working and got the best doctors to cure her. David chose to also investigate who was behind this.
The other wives panicked seeing how David is investigating. The most panicking was his first wife who also has a background. It rivals the baron himself but even she knows how much David loves Sonia. But even then she gave pressure to the others not to reveal. Because everything was done secretly that even if David want to find out, it won't be that easy.
Elena is always there to talk with mother, here and there and started to get the spoiled attitude from the maids that always follow her. They taught her manners and behavior. At the age of four Elena got teacher. A lady teacher who taught David how to behave and talk and never be looked down upon by others. She taught Elena to read and write.
Elena got a lot of resources so that during her awakening day she can get a descent grade talent. She got all the best resources. Compared to her other siblings receive lesser amount of resources. This has annoyed the other wives of David. They wanted to plan against Elena but now that David is monitoring every movement, no one try to do anything against Elena openly.
Anyone who tried to bully Elena, whether it is her other siblings from different mother or any servants or care takers. They have been personally punished by David. This has scared the other wives and warned them not to go near Elena.
This has also changed Elena, she became very cold to her other siblings and she would order her servants and they would obey. If they didn't, she would give them threat of telling her father. And everyone knows that how much David dote on Sonia and Elena.
By the time Elena turn 5, she was taught basic training on how to fight. She started learning martial art. There she was challenged or she challenged others and won each fight. Her arrogant level increased and also this got David's ear as well. He doesn't care if Elena is arrogant or not, he was happy that his daughter is talented. So he increased more of her cultivation resources. So that when she awakened her cultivation at the age of 14 she can become an excellent grade talented cultivator.
Other elders tried to limit Elena's and asked the baron to give other's chance as well but he didn't care and bought resources for her.
The only problem was that Elena started to have no friends or siblings that would come meet her. She has servants but they only obey orders, and won't play with her. She goes to her mother everyday who would greet her happily smiling. But that too started to show how her mother is becoming ill and it is getting worse day by day.
Sonia started to become thinner and found no cure by the healers and doctors that David brought. In the end Sonia gave her last few words to Elena that is, "Find at least one friend who will take care of you and talk with you. Cherish that friend and return the favor that friend hundred fold if you have to.
If you find a lover in the future, be sure to be with him forever. Think about yours and his happiness together and not yours only or his only.
How I wish I could see you grow up? How I wish to see your marriage? How I wish to see my grandchildren? Be brave okay? And stay strong without me. Do not give up on your goal. Be nice to your father and also remember mother loves you" said Sonia with tears while hugging Elena.
After sometime she made Elena to call David and made Elena to leave. In the room Sonia looked at David and said, "I have a request dear, if I leave then there will be no one to look after Elena. Different people will target her and bully her. You will have to work and take care of other miscellaneous stuffs for your home and the kingdom. You will not have eyes all the time on Elena and she might face the same thing that I did by someone else.
So when I die, send her away to Rose's orphan house. Rose is there, she will take care of her in my stead. And also Elena can make friends there as well. Here she will suffocate by bullies and trouble makers. Make sure when you give any resources to Elena, no one finds out." She said with tears.
Then she looked at her husband and said, "I am so sorry, I couldn't be with you dear, I wanted to be with you forever. I wanted to love you and take care of our child together. But there are evil eyes everywhere. They were filled with jealous and thought of a wicked way to kill me. I am sorry I am leaving ahead of you. Please take care of yourselves and always remember, I love you." Then she died after a long talk with her husband. She died while hugging him.
David and Elena was there together in the funeral of Sonia. Then they went to a room where David said everything to Elena what her mother wished for. He told her to be prepared to be send to Rose's orphan house. He gave every kinds of warning a parent would give to a child. Then he hugged her and personally took her to the Rose orphan's house.
David then made sure that everyone thinks that Elena is not part of their families anymore. But that doesn't mean anyone can bully her. If they bully her, they will face his wrath.
