AnnieI have officially decided that my new bedroom is ridiculous.Beautiful, absolutely, but ridiculous.I’ve spent the last ten minutes exploring, and so far, I’ve discovered a bathtub big enough for two people, a shower with approximately seventeen settings, and a toilet that apparently has more technological capabilities than my laptop. I’m almost afraid to touch anything in case I activate some kind of emergency cleaning procedure.The balcony overlooks sprawling gardens, decorative fountains, and a swimming pool surrounded by lounge chairs.Somewhere down there, my new stepbrother is probably practicing his scowling in front of a mirror.I still can’t believe that asshole took one look at me and decided I was some spoiled princess who’d come to live off his father’s money.Apparently, arriving with luggage qualifies me as a gold digger.I head back inside, deciding that unpacking might make the room feel less like an expensive hotel suite.My suitcases are waiting near the bed,
