Tears stung Adrien’s eyes. He admitted everything: his fear of being loved only for money, of never being seen as himself.
Marbel didn’t condemn him. Her kindness broke through his walls. With her, he felt something no wealth could buy—peace.
A Different Kind of Life
The mansion changed. No more endless parties. No more shallow laughter. Adrien no longer chased society’s approval. Instead, he found joy in quiet moments with Marbel—walking through rose gardens, listening to her childhood stories, brewing morning coffee together.
Their bond grew not from wealth, status, or beauty, but from respect, gentleness, and the rare gift of being truly seen.
