(Protagonist)
Anastasia:
Anastasia Charles was the kind of woman who commanded attention without saying a word. The only daughter of the influential Charles family, she was adored by everyone who knew her. With long, luxurious waves of chestnut hair that tumbled down her back like a velvet curtain, she was as striking as she was brilliant. Her doe eyes, wide and mesmerizing, were the perfect contrast to her sharp, calculating mind. She had inherited her father’s business acumen and her mother’s grace, making her both an intellectual powerhouse and a natural beauty.
But it was her secret life that set her apart from the world she appeared to live in. Beneath her polished exterior and flawless demeanor, Anastasia was a master hacker—an elusive presence in the digital world, able to infiltrate networks and uncover secrets no one else could. To the public, she was the perfect daughter: intelligent, poised, and loved by all. But behind closed doors, she was a woman with hidden desires and a rebellious streak, one that was only truly satisfied when manipulating the digital world from the shadows.
Her body was slim yet curvaceous, the kind that turned heads wherever she went. But it was the way she moved—graceful, measured, confident—that made her unforgettable. Though adored by both men and women alike, Anastasia had learned to use her beauty as a tool, not an identity. The love and admiration of her family—especially her father—were both a privilege and a weight she could never truly escape. She was their legacy, their future, and as the only heir to the Charles fortune, she carried an immense burden.
Yet, in her heart, Anastasia longed for freedom. Freedom from the expectations, the image, and the gilded cage that had been built around her. But breaking free was never going to be easy—not when everyone, from her family to her enemies, expected her to play the role they had scripted for her.
She always let out all her frustration to her mother and her best friend.

Charles Manson:
Charles Torrington had the world at his feet. A handsome, sharp-witted man, he inherited his family’s wealth and business empire, becoming a powerful tycoon. Born into privilege, Charles was raised to uphold the Torrington name, and by his 30s, he was leading a vast real estate and investment empire.
However, beneath the polished exterior, Charles was a man of secrets. His rise to success was built on morally questionable decisions—illegal dealings, bribery, and connections to the underworld. His ambitions often led him down a path of ruthless choices, prioritizing the family’s legacy over personal morality.
One of Charles’ darkest secrets was the existence of his estranged older brother. Adopted into the family, this brother became a source of shame and resentment for Charles, especially since their parents always favored him. Over time, their relationship soured, and the brothers grew apart. The family worked hard to keep this secret hidden from the world, including from Charles’ daughter, Anastasia.
As a father, Charles adored Anastasia, seeing her as the heir to his empire. His love for her was deep but tinged with expectations. He wanted her to follow in his footsteps and carry on the Torrington legacy. But despite his affection, he could never fully escape the burden of his past, especially the secrets he had buried deep. Charles feared that Anastasia, with her sharp mind, would uncover the truth about his illegal dealings and the fractured relationship with his brother. For now, he kept her close, shielding her from the darker sides of his life, but he knew that the truth was only a matter of time.
He had a ton of secrets.
That's why he was disliked by her daughter's best friend.

Marietta grey:
Marietta Gray had always been in the shadow of Anastasia Charles. From the time they met in kindergarten, Marietta admired Anastasia’s beauty, intelligence, and charm—qualities that seemed to come so effortlessly to her. As the years passed, this admiration turned into something darker. On the surface, Marietta was the supportive best friend, always by Anastasia’s side, cheering her on, and sharing in her successes. But inside, Marietta was consumed by jealousy, resentment, and a desire to be seen. She felt invisible, like a mere shadow to the bright, radiant star that was Anastasia.
Marietta’s life was marked by a constant comparison to her friend’s perfect world. Anastasia had everything—wealth, love, beauty, a future—things that Marietta longed for but could never attain. Despite her own successes and the love she received from her mother, it was never enough to erase the deep feeling that she was always second best.
Raised by a single mother, Marietta had been told for as long as she could remember that her father had died in a tragic accident when she was just a child. While her mother showered her with love and support, Marietta couldn’t help but wonder about the man she never knew. The loss of her father had left an emotional void, one she tried to fill by seeking validation through her friendship with Anastasia, though it only left her feeling more hollow.
Over time, the resentment grew, festering into a quiet hatred. She didn’t hate Anastasia—at least not consciously—but she despised how easily everything seemed to come to her. Every compliment, every gesture of affection, every success only deepened Marietta’s sense of inadequacy. The more she adored her, the more she wished she could be her. Her longing for the life Anastasia had only intensified as she grew older, until it transformed into an obsession.
In private, Marietta fantasized about what it would be like to be the one admired, to take Anastasia’s place at the center of attention. She dreamed of a moment where she would crush Anastasia, not physically, but emotionally, to bring her down from her pedestal and expose the vulnerability beneath the perfect exterior. It was a fantasy Marietta never shared, not even with herself at times, but it was there—festering in the corners of her mind, threatening to take over.
