Beth could feel her heart beating loud and fast. She hadn't expected Raphael to pull her for a hug. His arms surrounded her, holding her close, and blood rushed up to her face. 

Over the years, Beth had fallen for many men, maybe fallen in love with their wealth would be the right thing to say and then with their looks. And as much as she was trying to pin herself to marry someone of great calibre and status, nobody truly treated her the way she wanted them to treat her. 

Though her family cared for her, it wasn't the way she wanted it and not being able to find it inside the house, she had tried to find it outside. But the men who wanted to take her as their wife and the women who envied her because of how she looked never treated her with love and respect. Back then, she had been a young woman who could be swayed by materialistic things, and she had tried to find her happiness in it.
