Florence gazed at the newspaper office on the verge of closing for good and let out a deep sigh.
Who transmigrates and nearly goes bankrupt on their first day?
She does, that's who.
To avoid ending up on the streets, penniless and destitute, Florence decided to give it everything she had.
At first, she was simply grasping at straws, using the newspaper office's last remaining stock to put together a magazine.
To her surprise, it became a runaway success and took London by storm. Issue after issue came out, and Florence's fame spread far and wide. She also launched countless fashion and beauty brands...
Oh, and she had a designer named Lydia Bennet working for her.
The Queen of England lived at Buckingham Palace, while Florence sat on the throne of fashion, wearing a crown and holding a scepter. She was unquestionably its queen.

To Lady Whistledown, Miss Florence Mumberfield was nothing short of a fountain of inspiration.
Recently, she wrote in a tabloid that an informed source had spotted a handsome young man entering and leaving Florence's Mayfair home after dark.
Rumors soon flew, and all of London was saying Florence had paid a fortune to keep the latest darling of the magazine Trend, Mr. Robert Fitz, a tenor at the Covent Garden Opera House.
The more the two sides denied it, the faster the rumors spread.
Then an unexpected person stepped forward.
William Cavendish, Duke of Devonshire, declared that he and Florence were close to wedding bells.
London was in an uproar
They say that day, Florence's admirers were heartbroken, soaking more than ten handkerchiefs with their tears.
William Cavendish: Sorry, darling. She's mine.
