But they weren't satisfied. They refused to accept it. They couldn't resign themselves to their fate or simply give up.

It's easy to go from hardship to luxury, but going from luxury back to hardship? That's unbearable. Born into the Farrell family, they had come into the world with silver spoons in their mouths.

Even if they couldn't inherit everything, their mother was still the head of the Farrell family, making them young masters of privilege.

They had never known struggle or poverty. From childhood, they lived in comfort, indulging in
