Sacha Glade

Sacha Orne (née Glade) is Basmer Tenez's older sister. She is a keen businesswoman, having built up a boutique empire in the hottest parts of San Myshuno.

## Childhood

Sacha was raised in a free-spirited household in Windenburg. Her parents were always encouraging her to pursuit arts and crafts, and savour the moment. But Sacha had always been single-minded.

From a young age, she had always expressed a desire to be the best. She would always study for her exams relentlessly, and excelled in school. Despite her parents' teachings that "grades are just letters on a piece of paper".

## Adulthood

### University

Sacha went straight out of high school into university, earning a distinguished Communications degree from the University of Britechester. She quickly moved herself into an apartment in the San Myshuno Arts District, enjoying the clean modern feel of the area compared to her chilldhood home, which she had always found a little too rustic for her taste.

### Business Mogul

Fresh out of university, Sacha immediately began her own company. Starting off as a drop-shipping website, she grew her business until she was able to open her own store.

But as she was growing her business, she found that a lot of people were unwilling to support her as an untested entrepreneur. Most believed that she was simply another upstart that she was going to go bankrupt in the next couple of years. And without their support, they weren't far wrong. So Sacha took matters into her own hands. She began grooming several potential husbands who could back her business, until she met Alexander Goth.

To Sacha's mind, Alexander was perfect. He came from money and would be able to support any of her ventures should she need it, not to mention the power that would come behind the Goth name. She began flirting with him, trying to win his favour. Her efforts proved successful, and Alexander and she were soon dating. They were married seven months after they met, with their daughter Victoria following the year after.

### Marriage of Convenience

Despite portraying the picture of the happy family whenever they went to business events, things were frosty between Alexander and Sacha. She didn't find him particularly interesting, preferring to spend more time with her business and later their daughter than with her husband. Meanwhile, Alexander wanted love and company, he found Sacha's single-mindedness far too intimidating and regularly felt insecure about their marriage.

A few years after their daughter was born, Alexander was discovered having an affair by Sacha's P.A. when he went to deliver a package to him. When Sacha found out, she was more worried about a potential scandal damaging her latest partnership than she was about her husband's infidelity. It was clear to both of them that they weren't compatible. Sacha had got what she needed from Alexander, and he wanted out.

Despite her worries about a scandal, she agreed to a divorce settlement where she and Alexander's assets were split equally, with her taking all of her business whilst paying an alimony to Alexander from the profits. She took custody of their daughter, with weekend visitation for him.

### Second Marriage

As the years went by, Alexander and Sacha began growing apart, with Alexander taking Victoria for the weekend less and less often. After four years, Alexander had completely stopped visiting, except for visiting on one of her birthdays and sending a Christmas card to Sacha. She was fine with the arrangement however, she continued to care for her daughter as though nothing had changed. Life went on for the pair, as they moved into one of the most expensive apartments in Uptown, San Myshuno.

One morning, as she arrived at work, a man introduced himself to Sacha in the lift. He said his name was Carver and he complimented her outfit, saying she looked great in it. Sacha was a little taken aback by his friendliness, but thanked him. They began a short conversation, until the lift came to Carver's floor, and he was about to get out. As he was leaving the lift, he quickly turned around and held the doors open. He asked Sacha if she'd like to get coffee with him some time, and Sacha responded by giving him her business card, telling him to call her and smiling at the look on Carver's face as he read "CEO" on her card.

Carver did call, and they did go out for coffee. In fact, they went for many coffees, as Carver took Sacha on a tour of all his favourite coffee houses (many of which served irish coffee and other alcoholic varieties). Sacha enjoyed Carver's company, his friendliness and generally happy nature made her feel happier by comparison, meanwhile Carver found Sacha's motivation and drive extremely admirable.

After dating for two years, the pair bought a new house out in Willow Creek, away from the bustle of the city and closer to some better schools for Victoria. The night after moving in, Carver proposed to Sacha, and she accepted. The two married and had a further two children together, Lucas and Georgia.

## "Trivia"

* Sacha had a brief period where she modelled for both her own magazine, and for other publications.
* Sacha only wears skirts and dresses (and sometimes shorts, if she must). She hates wearing trousers, since they make her legs feel incredibly closed in.
