Episode 1

My name is Jazmin Leroy Garcia, twenty years old, my eyes are dark green and my hair was a blonde mane, until one day I decided to change it to dark copper, it is still a mane that I almost always wear tied up.

I am somewhat thin, but I have a good body, a lot on top and bottom, I would say.

My parents, Ulises Leroy and Marie Garcia, humble people from the town of Grasse, France, we live in a small house, on the outskirts of the city, since my parents were jasmine flower growers. Some time ago, they stopped working for the owners of the farm where the flower is grown, due to the fact that Dad got sick, he is a somewhat older man, so I took his place, Mom takes care of him, I finished my secondary studies, but I couldn't continue to university, because at that time my father was diagnosed with lung cancer, I work hard to cover some of the medical expenses. I have a fifteen-year-old sister named Azucena. I am named after jasmine, because it is my mom's favorite flower and also because I was born in the very place where they are grown. My parents tell us that my mom went that day to take lunch to Dad, she didn't think that I would be born that day, since it was still time for my birth, but I was born a week earlier than planned.

My dreams have always been to be a recognized model, I have wanted to be the number one model for one of the most important perfume brands in France, that would be like the brand of my bosses' company, they are the owners of the entire place where I work, the Bernad Petit family.

Personally, I don't know them, since they live in Paris, they have the great estate here in Grasse, but very few come here, they are seen in magazines and things like that, but in person almost no one knows them, it is known that their only heir is in another country, but he is not seen on magazine covers.

To earn a little more money, I work in the big house, as they say, I am a part-time service employee on the estate.

Mr. Wilfred, the foreman, is a very good friend of Dad, he has a son, Sebastian, twenty-five years old, he is a very handsome, tall, muscular guy, with dark brown hair, hazel eyes, and full lips, he likes me, he has told me, I also like him, but not to say that I love him, in the mornings I am on the estate and in the afternoons I am in the fields.

Just today is an exhausting day, and it is that tonight, the owners of the estate will arrive.

"Jazmin, I need you to take care of the rooms, that everything is spotless, first clean the master bedroom, then the others, and one thing, leave the room at the back shining, today the owner's son will finally come and from what his mother told me he is very demanding in everything, so I entrust that room to you very much."

"It will be done, Mr. Wilfred."

And that's how everything is on the estate, everyone going from one side to the other, I learned from one of the girls who also works here, that the so-called Rene, because that's the owner's son's name, is coming with his wife. I had no idea that he is married and since nothing is known about him through the media, I didn't know anything about it.

I do everything that Mr. Wilfred told me to do, and I leave the place, heading to the fields, in the distance I can see Sebastian coming, I continue with my work, until he arrives next to me

"Hello beautiful, how was your day?"

"Hello Sebastian, today has been a very exhausting day, but I can't complain, the good thing is that there is work, you know that I need these two jobs to help with the expenses of my dad's medications"

"Yes, I understand you, and what have you thought about what I proposed to you?"

"I haven't had a head for that, besides you know that I don't love you, and I don't want to be your girlfriend without loving you"

"But love comes later"

"Things are not like that, but let me think about it a little more, please."

"Okay beautiful, I'll leave you because I'm going to run some errands that my father sent me to do."

And that was the day, I'm finally going home, I'm really tired, but I do everything for Dad, I love my parents and my crazy sister very much, although she is only fifteen she looks older than me, she has an incredible imagination.

"Good evening, I'm here." I said as I entered the house, Dad is sitting in the old armchair.

"Hello my princess, how was it?"

"Good Dad, the Bernards are arriving today and they also say that their son will arrive."

"Yes, Wilfred told me something, he came to see me for a while."

"Daughter, you look exhausted."

"I'm fine Mom, where is Azucena?"

"She's in the room, getting ready to come to dinner, we were waiting for you."

When I hear her screams, I just shake my head and smile

"Sister, is it true that the Bernards are coming?"

"Yes, that's right, who told you?"

"I know everything ha, ha, ha. I smile at her antics and the truth is that I already know who told her, Agnes, Mr. Wilfred's youngest daughter, they are very good friends, although Agnes is a year older than Azucena, they tell each other every gossip."

"Yes right, it was Agnes who told you."

"Okay, okay, she told me, and she also told me that the bitter Rene Bernard will arrive"

"And how do you know that he is bitter if no one knows him."

"Little sister, you forget that Julieta works in the Bernards' mansion, there in Paris."

"Right, I had forgotten. Julieta is Wilfred's second daughter, she is two years older than me."

"Well, stop the gossip and let's have dinner. My mother says and Dad just smiles, he looks a little bad, but he knows how to hide it in front of us although I already know when he is like that."
