Star Shopping in Blue
The annual gala hosted in the Watson estate had been known for years. The big event is attended by the fourteen most sophisticated and powerful families all around the globe. The Watson, Mctyler, Kellior, Morgan, Lewis, Marygoldstein, Waldridge, Astor, Barclay, Ellis, Astley, Soleil, Wilson, and Mareign.
The fourteen families are composed of powerful politicians and business tycoons. The fourteen elites are known to support different types of business in their localities and even abroad. They funded any form of business that would flourish in the world market. The undeniable friendship of the fourteen elites, from the founders down to the newest line of heirs had always been unbreakable. Trust settled its roots between the families, tying them into a tight knot. Several fixed marriages had been arranged from generation to generation, becoming a tradition at the annual gala. Its purpose is to expand their riches by pairing up young heirs and heiresses, ensuring that the wealth within the families circulates around the hands of well-trained business handlers.
Mr Watson, the wealthiest man among the elites, finally selects the right man in his sight to marry his twenty-year-old daughter, Gabriella July Watson. No matter how July tries to persuade her father that she refuses to marry her old childhood acquaintance, she still finds herself considering the fate that her father chose for her.
July strongly thinks her star shopping was over, the moment her father chose the man for her, but little did she know, it was only the beginning, and at some point, she will have to start all over again. As she begins her journey, exploring life outside her father's estate, she'll discover that there's more to her dreams and a lot to know about people.
As she spoils herself with the freedom her father had allowed her, she reflects on the injustice of life and seeks a soul just like hers - always looking for someone who is a mirror. Someone that would always see things the way she does, and there was it, right in front of her, but will two broken souls be able to heal and bring peace in one another? Or would be just a complete disaster, dragging everyone near them into a depth of unmatched fuckery of life?
