Chapter 1 - The Cruel Command
The gleaming stainless steel counters of the commercial kitchen were ice cold, but the tension radiating through the room was boiling.
Victoria Moretti stood rigidly beside a massive, towering stack of foil food containers. She was a striking, elegant woman in her early thirties, her blonde hair styled into a flawless, intricate updo. She wore a stunning one-shoulder dark burgundy gown that caught the bright overhead lights, looking every bit the untouchable elite.
But her beautiful face was twisted into a mask of pure, unadulterated disgust.
Standing right next to her was Maya. A young woman in her twenties, her brown hair pulled tightly back, wearing a classic black and white maid uniform. Maya’s hands trembled slightly as she gripped a heavy metal soup ladle, staring at the stack of premium, untouched food.
In the background, through the open kitchen doorway, the warm, golden glow of a luxurious event room spilled onto the floor tiles. Formally dressed guests clinked champagne glasses, completely oblivious to the cruel confrontation happening just feet away.
Victoria pointed a sharp, manicured finger at the perfectly packaged meals.
"Throw them away," Victoria ordered. Her voice was cold, dismissive, and completely devoid of human empathy.
