A long time ago, there was a beautiful girl named " Mariah ". Mariah has a pure beauty like an wonderful smelling flower that can make any man's heart go round and round just concentrically. She has curly golden hair, azure eyes, coral lips and a dimple on her face. She has soft skin like a baby and always is odoriferous. Mariah not only has these about her. Mariah's silky words and her beautiful smile are like aqua fresh air and could make anyone's day. She was the only daughter of her parents. They live on a small farm with a happy life. But a happy life was not enough to live. They were just a poor farm family, and they could not do anything without money. They needed money.

Two, I want to marry your daughter to my son. Three, you will lose everything you have if you do not pick one. " Mariah and her parents implored the squire, but the man was heartless. Snob asked his henchmen to give more than a slap on the wrist to Mariah's parents. She could not do anything because she had been blocked by two big henchmen. She was crying and begging the heartless squire: " Please, please do not beat them. I will agree to marry your son. You have my word. I agree to marry your son. …
