Avant mes dix-huit ans, j'avais été la princesse adorée de la famille Moreau. Tout cela a changé le jour de mon dix-huitième anniversaire, lorsque mon père a ramené à la maison une orpheline du nom de Catherine. « Elle a besoin d'un foyer, » a dit mon père. « Tu t'occuperas d'elle, comme d'une sœur. » À partir de ce moment, rien n'était plus pareil. Mon frère, qui m'adulait autrefois, est devenu froid et distant. Et mon fiancé… son amour pour moi a semblé se réduire de moitié du jour au lendemain. La famille a loué Catherine pour sa douceur et son obéissance, la qualifiant de bien meilleure fille que moi, comme leur propre chair et sang. Après avoir été mise de côté pour Catherine trop de fois, j'ai craqué enfin et ai attrapé la manche de mon père. « Le lien du sang ne signifie-t-il rien du tout ? » La fureur de mon père s'est enflammée. Il a caché une Catherine en larmes derrière lui, et devant tous les membres de la famille, il m'a giflée violemment. « Espèce de déchet égoïste. J'aurais préféré ne jamais t'avoir. » « Tu as coupé l'honneur de cette famille, » la voix de mon frère, Marco, était aussi froide qu'une lame. « Va-t'en. » Et mon fiancé, Vincent, m'a regardée avec déception. « Pourquoi a-t-il fallu que ce soit toi ? Pourquoi n'ai-je pas été fiancé à Catherine depuis le début ? » Ils pensaient que je me prosternerais à leurs pieds, comme je l'avais toujours fait. Mais je n'ai dit rien. J'ai marché simplement vers le coffre-fort de la famille, en ai retiré les documents officiels, et ai tracé une seule ligne à travers mon nom. J'ai retiré la bague de fiançailles de mon doigt et l'ai déposée sur la table. J'ai donné à Catherine tout ce qu'ils pensaient que je ne méritais pas. Après tout, il ne me restait que quelques jours à vivre. Mais ils ne savaient pas alors qu'au milieu des ruines de la famille Moreau, un jour, ils se retrouveraient à genoux sous la pluie, implorant mon retour.
