She must’ve gone to great lengths to obtain my purchase contract and impersonate me. An idea struck me. Feigning innocence, I said, “You’re right. I haven’t seen anything like it before. Why don’t you invite us to your house, Grace? Let us ordinary folks broaden our horizons.” As our colleagues’ eyes lit up, clearly intrigued, Grace’s expression instantly darkened.

’ Crystal thought to herself with glee. Gazing over to her chosen books once again which was entitled. ‘The Path To Modern Business Evolution’, ‘Architect’s Diary: From Land To Empire’, and ‘To Build An Empire With A Penny’.

The proofs were the book in its near-final form—the designed pages, the text in the typeface the publisher had chosen, the specific physical form the book would take.

A book was different. A book was permanent in a way that speeches were not. A book existed in the world independently of whether I was in a good place when it was read, independently of the specific room and the specific audience and the specific night. A book could be read by my children when they were old enough to read it. A book could be read by people who hated me, people who had opinions about what I should have done differently, people who had never experienced anything adjacent to what I was describing and would bring that absence to the reading. A book required a different kind of exposure than standing at a podium.

"*Maybe you should start,"* she had breathed. An effortless sentence. Soft, nearly shy. But it had hit harder than any boardroom betrayal or market crash he'd ever faced.

Those contributions, along with my stellar grades, had secured me a guaranteed spot at a top university before I even took the SATs. However, Haley suddenly struck and slandered me. She accused me of impersonating her. Crying, she pitifully showed photos of my villa, including the pool, the private theater, and my dad's collection of sports cars in the garage. She even produced a photo of herself standing next to my dad to make her lies more convincing. The school turned on me when the photos were released. I became the "poor girl" who pretended to be a tycoon's daughter, and my guaranteed university admission was revoked.
