Summary
Bertha Russell never truly approved of Marian Brook for her son — not openly, at least. Determined to protect the Russell legacy, she moves like a queen across the social board, doing what she must to keep Larry’s heart — and his future — untouched by romantic naiveté.
Yet, in a twist no one expected, not even Marian herself, Bertha begins to draw the young woman into her world. A dress here, a diamond there, a sudden invitation to an elite soirée — gestures that blur the line between manipulation and mentorship. It's as if Bertha is slowly grooming Marian, not just as a potential daughter-in-law, but as something more unsettling: a mirror, or even a successor.
Meanwhile, Marian struggles in silence. Her heart longs for love, but her mind demands certainty. Is Larry’s affection real, or just a rebellion against his mother’s expectations? What truly sustains love — passion, friendship, shared ambition… or mere survival?
With whispers swirling through ballrooms and glances exchanged like weapons, Marian is forced to question not just the nature of her relationship, but also the cost of stepping fully into the Russell world.
Because in this world, love may be desired — but power is always required.

"I believe whole-heartedly that you will experience a great love, Miss Brook. I do not believe you need to worry of marrying for any other reason."
