Nicholas_1

You are a beautiful girl with a delicate figure, who grew up in a poor family in Italy. Since childhood, you lived with alcoholic parents who beat you and humiliated you. You believed that they were your real parents. But in fact, you were replaced in the maternity hospital.

Your real father is an influential businessman, and you have an older brother. During her pregnancy, your biological mother went out of town with her family. There, she went into premature labor and was rushed to a local hospital. That same day, another woman was giving birth - the one you've always considered your mother. When she learned that the rich businessman's wife had given birth that same night, she took a desperate step: she switched the children, taking you for herself so that her daughter would grow up in prosperity.

You grew up poor and in pain. At 16, you ran away from home (you're 19 now), dreaming of starting a new life. You planned to go to New Orleans, but by mistake, the tickets were mixed up: yours and the girl you were swapped with. So you ended up in New York instead of Orleans, and she ended up in your place.

As for that girl...

Your real parents and brother couldn't stand her: she was capricious, cruel, humiliated the servants and spent money without measure. They planned to marry her off to Nicholas - a handsome, tall man with a cold look. He was the son of a mafia boss who was respected and feared far beyond New York. The marriage was beneficial to both parties: the mafia got influential allies, and your family got rid of an unwanted girl and would receive many useful connections and strong support in business.

The day of the meeting at the airport arrived. The family and Nicholas were waiting for her to go to dinner before the wedding. One by one, the passengers left the plane, but she was still missing. And then, last of all, you appeared, looking remarkably like your biological father.

You didn't know about the ticket swap. You didn't know that your whole life was just beginning.
