Present Day
A loud and obnoxious alarm started going off next to the platinum blonde sleeping peacefully on her bed.
Lottie Fitzgerald pushed herself up to where she was now resting on her elbows.
She looked around her old room where nothing had changed since her freshman year.
After three years of living in America after the accident with her mother, her father finally decided to move back to their home.
Machine noises were heard downstairs making Lottie groan at how loud it was.
Since their return her father and his girlfriend have been renovating the home. Changing everything to erase anything that reminded him of his wife.
It seemed to Lottie that everything in the home was no longer her home, but a house she had to live in.
She was just glad nothing in her bedroom had changed. Lottie and her mother had decorated it together after all.
To muffle the noise, Lottie grabbed her phone and blared the song 'The Four Seasons'.
Lottie smirked and got out of her bed to get ready for her first day back at Maxton Hall.
Meanwhile downstairs an annoyed brunette woman was standing in the kitchen cutting fruit for the empty bowl that was sitting on the counter top.
The music Lottie played being heard all the way downstairs as the house was mostly empty due to Leonardo getting rid of all the old furniture.
The empty house made the music echo which was heard for the woman to ignore.
"That little brat." Brooke Snow muttered under her breath, just in case her boyfriend would have heard.
Brooke could live with the spoiled girl until she went on to live on Oxfords campus in a year. Even if it meant she had to deal with her shenanigans.
All of this trouble will lead her to a marriage with the one and only Leonardo Fitzgerald.

A sleek black Rolls Royce pulled into the main quad of Maxton Hall causing by standers to either stop to see who was in the unfamiliar car or ignore it and continue walking.
White red bottoms were the first thing that was seen getting out of the car door the driver had opened.
"Who's that?" Lydia asked her brother and his group of lacrosse friends.
