Businessman Daughter Forced Head Shave in Villa

She sighed deeply as she gazed out the window of the luxurious villa. "I can't believe I married into this life of wealth and privilege, yet I feel so empty inside."

He gave her a sidelong glance. "What's troubling you, my dear? You have everything a woman could want - a lavish home, financial security, the envy of others."

"Except your true affection," she replied bitterly. "Your daughter is the center of your world. The way you dote on her, brushing her long, gorgeous hair for hours..."

He frowned. "Christina is my precious child. Of course I cherish her. But you are my wife now, and I care deeply for you as well."

She wasn't convinced. The jealousy simmered within her.

Months passed, and he grew ill. On his deathbed, he made her vow to care for Christina as her own. "Promise me. She's all I have left in this world."

"I promise," she lied, masking her resentment.

After the funeral, tension filled the grand mansion they now shared.

Christina glared at her. "You'll never be my real mother. I don't have to listen to you."

"This is my house now. You'll follow my rules, young lady," she countered, her jealousy flaring.
