Chapter 1: The past and the future

Will you let yourself to give in or to be broken?

A simple question but hard to answer and that's what Aubrianna Dione or Adie to her friends has been asking herself multiple times as she continuously sips her brandy. Yes, brandy. Drinking brandy or even a whiskey is a man's line, but not to this woman. When she asked this question three years ago when a Duke proposed to her she knew then what to answer. But how come when this Aldrich, an Engineer comes to her life, she doesn't know what her answer will be? She's a self made millionaire, a renowned jeweler in the United States and this man is just an ordinary man for her- status basis.
