Madam Veronica glanced over at her daughter who was lounging on the plush, velvet sofa in their magnificently furnished living room.

"Isabella, my dear, don't you have anything to do?" Madam Veronica inquired, her voice filled with concern.

She had always been an active and productive woman, ever since her Dad died, and she worried that her daughter was not living up to her potential.
