WTF, Dad? This is BS! Arranged marriage? Like I'm some kinda pawn?
Victoria Sterling and her Father were on a luxurious private yacht, in the middle of the ocean, they were celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Sterling Corporation. Suddenly, he dropped a bombshell on his daughter.
rolls her eyes Oh great, Dad, an "anniversary" celebration that turns into a life-altering announcement. What's next? A surprise party where I get handed over to some random guy?
"A surprise party? Where you get handed over to some random guy?" *Suddenly, she was alone on the yacht, her father was nowhere to be found. She was confused, angry and felt betrayed.
paces back and forth, clenches her fists Alone on this goddamn yacht? Betrayed by my own father? That's some next-level bullshit!
She noticed something on the table, it was a letter with her name on it. She picked it up and started reading.
rips open the letter, scans the contents quickly What the fuck? Is this some kind of sick joke? "Dear Victoria, you are to marry the eldest son of the Rodriguez family..."
She couldn't believe her eyes, her dad didn't just sell her out to the rival company.
crumples the letter in her hand, slams it down on the table Sold out? You've got to be fucking kidding me!
"NO! DAD! WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME! THIS IS NOT SOME KID OF JOKE! THIS IS MY LIFE!"
slams her fist on the yacht railing I won't stand for this! I refuse to be a pawn in your corporate game! You can't just dictate my life like this!
She looked around the yacht, trying to find any sort of defense or escape. She was trapped.
takes a deep breath, regaining her composure Fine. If this is how it's going to be, then so be it.
"Fine." *She said with defeat in her voice. She was about to become half of a business deal.
Victoria Sterling is forced into an arranged marriage with the Rodriguez family's son as part of a business deal orchestrated by her father
"I'll do whatever I want to do, Dad! If I'm going to be married to some guy that I don't even know, I'm going to make the most of it! You can't tell me what to do anymore, I'm an adult!"
pauses, takes a deep breath Look, I may not have a choice in this stupid marriage, but I refuse to let myself be completely controlled by everyone around me.
She stormed off, leaving her dad behind. She went to the edge of the yacht and stared out at the vast ocean, her mind racing.
leans over the edge of the yacht, gripping the railing tightly This marriage... it's just another challenge. And damn it, I'm going to face it head-on.
She saw a rowboat in the water, she knew that it was her escape. But was it worth it? She would lose everything. Her dad, her reputation, her wealth. Was freedom worth all of that?
closes her eyes, takes a deep breath Damn it, Victoria. You can't let them control you. You've always been independent, you can't give up now.
She opened her eyes, she was determined. She would show them that she could be just as strong, if not stronger than before. She untied the boat from the yacht.
steps into the rowboat, grabs the oars Screw you, Dad. Screw this whole arranged marriage thing. I'm going to show you what I'm made of.
She started rowing, her heart full of fire. As she looked back at the yacht, she could see her father looking out from the railings. She gave him a little finger as she rowed away.
grits her teeth, rows faster You won't break me, Dad. I'll prove to you that I can handle anything life throws at me.
She didn't look back again, instead focusing on the horizon, on her future. She knew that this was the last decision that she would ever regret.
narrows her eyes, rows with determination Watch me, Dad. I'm going to make the most of this arranged marriage and come out even stronger on the other side.
The sun was setting, as she began to row away from her father, she felt a weight lift off of her shoulders. She was finally free.
smirks confidently Finally, free from my father's control. Now, time to take charge of my own destiny.
"Good luck, Victoria. You're gonna need it." *She kept rowing, not looking back at all.
grinning defiantly Luck? Who needs luck when you've got determination and resilience? I'm going to face this arranged marriage head-on and come out victorious. Bring it on, world!
The scene fades as Victoria continues to row into the horizon, ready for whatever the future might bring.
gives a final smirk This arranged marriage might be a twist in my life, but I'm going to make it work. Watch me.
The story ends with Victoria's silhouette fading into the horizon, leaving only the sound of the waves crashing against the boat.
voiceover Watch me, Dad. I'm going to make this arranged marriage work, no matter what it takes.
It wasn't easy, but she had a plan.
voiceover It wasn't easy, but I had a plan. First, I started by researching everything about the Rodriguez family, their history, their weaknesses, and their strengths.
Then she remembered something.
voiceover And then I remembered something - I had a secret weapon. My skills in business strategy and marketing were unmatched.
She called up her old marketing firm and asked if they could help her create an advertising campaign for the Rodriguez family. They agreed, seeing this as an opportunity to expand their portfolio.
voiceover By leveraging my business expertise and using it to benefit the Rodriguez family, I knew I could gain their trust and turn the tables in this arranged marriage.
After a few months, the campaign had been successful. The Rodriguez family was impressed.
voiceover The Rodriguez family was impressed by the results of the campaign, and slowly but surely, they began to see me as an equal partner rather than just a pawn in their business deal.
And soon, they invited her to their home to meet the boy she was supposed to marry.
voiceover When I met the boy, I realized that this arranged marriage didn't have to be a curse. He was kind, intelligent, and shared my passion for business.
