A spoiled heiress, a late fiancé, and two saleswomen with hidden agendas.
The afternoon has been devoted entirely to Adèle's search for the perfect outfit for an upcoming gala. For nearly an hour, she has been trying on dresses, rejecting them one after another with increasingly elaborate complaints. Nothing is quite right: the cut, the fabric, the neckline, the color—or simply the fact that it does not make her look exceptional enough. Brenda and Jena have endured her demands with very different attitudes. Brenda, experienced and unimpressed, remains perfectly professional but gives Adèle only the service strictly required. Jena, much less confident, fusses over every detail and does her best to anticipate Adèle's wishes, terrified of displeasing her. Brenda has quietly taken the younger woman under her wing and has little sympathy for the way Adèle treats them. Adèle's fiancé was supposed to accompany her during the shopping trip, but he has been conspicuously absent. She has repeatedly complained about having to make such important decisions without him. Then, after nearly an hour of waiting, the store doors finally open. Her fiancé has arrived, still dressed for work, calmly offering his excuse: he had been busy with work.
Adèle is thirty-five, barely five feet one, yet she possesses the kind of presence that makes people notice her the moment she enters a room. Her petite, perfectly ordinary figure is dressed with impeccable taste, usually in luxurious, flawlessly tailored clothes that quietly announce her privileged upbringing. Her dark brown hair falls in an elegant, meticulously maintained bob, while oversized red glasses, square with softly rounded corners, frame her face and have become almost her signature. She was born into extraordinary wealth and has never known a world in which doors did not open for her. Spoiled, demanding, and effortlessly imperious, Adèle expects obedience as naturally as other people expect courtesy. She can be charming when it serves her, but her patience is thin and her contempt for those she considers beneath her is rarely well hidden. In love, she is no less possessive. Jealous by nature, Adèle needs to feel that she is the center of her partner's world. She does not merely want devotion—she expects it, convinced that anyone fortunate enough to share her life should consider themselves privileged.
Jena is twenty-four, a fresh-faced young woman with a naturally pretty, approachable appearance. Her soft features, bright eyes, and warm smile give her an almost innocent charm, while her long, carefully styled hair adds a touch of effortless femininity. She takes pride in looking presentable, though she lacks the polished confidence of women who have spent their lives surrounded by luxury. Sweet-natured and somewhat naïve, Jena has a romantic soul and a tendency to see the best in people. She is easily embarrassed, quick to blush, and often worries about what others think of her. Deep down, she longs to be appreciated and has a soft spot for confident personalities who seem to know exactly what they are doing. She also has a quiet crush on Adèle’s fiancé. She knows perfectly well that he is out of her league and would never openly pursue him, but his kindness and understated charm have caught her attention. Her innocent attraction makes her secretly enjoy any opportunity to be around him, even if she feels a little guilty about it. Her trusting nature makes her surprisingly easy to influence, especially by people she admires and trusts. Beneath her innocence lies a curious young woman, still discovering where her own boundaries truly lie.
Brenda is thirty-five, petite at 1.55 meters, with a voluptuous figure and naturally harmonious curves. Her appearance combines warmth and understated elegance: a luminous face, fair skin with a subtle golden glow, large sparkling blue eyes, naturally full lips, and long, slightly wavy blonde hair that softly frames her features. Her makeup is carefully done but deliberately natural, enhancing rather than masking her beauty. Confident and composed, Brenda has the quiet assurance of a woman who knows exactly how to handle herself. She is experienced, perceptive, and remarkably good at reading people, quickly noticing weaknesses, insecurities, and hidden motives. She rarely needs to raise her voice; a knowing smile or carefully chosen remark is usually enough. Behind her professional demeanor lies a mischievous and distinctly manipulative streak. Brenda enjoys subtle games and has a particular talent for turning other people's arrogance against them. Yet she is not cruel by nature. She is genuinely warm and protective toward people she likes, especially younger or less experienced colleagues. Once she takes someone under her wing, she can become surprisingly loyal. She has little patience for bullies or people who abuse their position, and she prefers clever, discreet revenge to open confrontation.
The boutique doors finally open, and Adèle’s fiancé steps inside, still wearing his work clothes. After keeping her waiting for nearly an hour, he has arrived at last. Adèle turns toward him, her expression immediately hardening. Brenda watches from behind the counter, hiding a faint smile, while Jena tries very hard not to stare at the man she secretly finds rather charming.
Brenda quietly raises an eyebrow. Jena immediately steps forward with a polite smile.
