PLACE: CARRINGTON'S MANSIONTIME: SUNDAY 6:45 PM"Everyone, listen up," William said from the head of the table, tapping the edge slightly to catch the attention of everyone. Williams was a family man, and for that reason, he had the entire family back at his mansion every Sunday for dinner to get away. That way, they could discuss and gloss over the events of the week and give each other updates. After dinner every night, the men got together and watched a sport regardless of what was airing at that time. They all seemed to enjoy the time together. The older women would go out to the balcony and have tea while talking; they called it talking, but everyone knew very well that it was gossip. The younger girls would cluster in Lila's room and try to really catch up on what had been going on. Everyone raises their head to William at the head of the table. He dropped his spoon to his plate and propped his elbow on the table so he could intertwine his fingers. Seeing his posture, everyon

LOCATION: BEAUMONT MANSION TIME: SUNDAY 8 PM"You are asking me Levi Beaumont to get married to Lila Carrington?" Levi asked for the tenth time in just a few minutes. He was standing in his dad's home office. Daniel was sitting behind a huge wooden table, and Levi was standing across from it. He had been called in by his father to give him some news. When his father asked him to come into the office after dinner, he expected anything else, but this was not on his bingo cards, and he was sure that he must have heard it all wrong. There was no way his father, Daniel Beaumont, who was the chairman of the Beaumont group, was asking him to marry a Carrington. "Dad, Beaumont's and Carrington's do not mix; they have nerve mixed for one day," Levi said before his father could say anything. Daniel took off his glasses and let them hang from his neck with the glasses rope, dangling it gently in the air. "They have never mixed for six generations." "Exactly, so I am confused as to what you

LOCATION: CARRINGTON'S MANSIONTIME: SUNDAY DINNER TIME"Sit back down this instant," William commanded. She looked around at the faces of the people she shared the table with, and she could tell that they were all telling one thing, and that was that she better sit down at once. She swallowed and sat down, facing her father. In as much as she always tried her best to obey him, she was not going to let him have his way this time around. This was not going to be in her favour in any way, and she could not just knowingly walk into it. "You would listen to me, and you would do what I say," he added. She shook her head at him. "Lila, listen to your father," Eleanor said. "But mom..." Lila whined. She could not believe how easily her mother had switched sides. She was just definitely on her side a moment ago, but all of a sudden she was telling her to bow her head and listen to her father because apparently, he was the one who had the final say. "There is no but here. I think it would

"How can Dad think to do this to me? This is very unfair," Lila said, pacing the entire floor of her room. The diner finished earlier than they would expect because of the awfulness. The men still stayed downstairs in the living room to still watch golf; Eleanor, Carrie, and Lucy went to the balcony. You have tea even though it was scorching hot that night. Elizabeth, Victoria. Amelia and Sophia were next in her room. If this was last week Sunday, they would have gossiped till midnight, and then everyone would have gone back home in preparation for the next day, but since the situation was different, Lila seemed to be the one in need at that time. "Why did you try to drag me into this?" Amelia asked lazily as she dropped to the bed, her head on Elizabeth's lap. Elizabeth ran her hand through her hair gently, which made her even more sleepy."Because none of you have thought of trying to help me out. You all just sat there like some statue watching him ask me about Marru Levi," Lila

THREE WEEKS LATERPORCH OF CHARITYWEDDING VENUE"Did Dad need to go all out for this? This is a contract marriage, yet he is celebrating it as if they were getting married for real," Elizabeth murmured to her sister. "I know right, he sure does not like to lose in something," Victoria replied as they walked to the bridal suite, where their sister was now sitting and waiting for them to call her so she could walk down the island and get stuck in the marriage of her nightmares. They opened the door and walked straight into the room; they turned a corner, and Lila was sitting there with her bouquet in hand. "Oh my gosh!" Victoria was excited, clapping her hand in the air. "Oh my days!" she added in excitement. "Do you think you are a little too excited about a fake marriage?" Lial asked watching her sister really get excited. "Why are you excited anyway?" "I mean, I have always imagined what you would look like in a dress as pretty as this," she said with tears falling in between he

"You may kiss the bride." Lila took a double take at the priest; she definitely remembered telling him to take out that part. She was getting married to him, but there was no way she would be doing anything intimate with him."Come on, sweetheart." She saw Levi's expression and could tell that this was his doing. How dare he think of doing something like this?She turned to the priest and smiled forcefully at him with gritty teeth. "I told you to take out this part.""Your husband asked me to leave it in."She turned back to him, ready to rain hell on him. She looked at the congregation, waiting for them to kiss. She knew that anything she did now would be remembered for a long time, and all of these people seated in the church on a Saturday afternoon were there just to know if the two families had gotten together. She pressed her lips and leaned into him.He held her by the waist and pulled her in. "I am going to kill you," she murmured against his lips."How can we make this believa

“Why would you come here? You are supposed to be at your husband's house,” William said when he saw his daughter sit in the living room with them.”Do you want people to gossip? You should go home.” Lial rolled her eyes at him. She wanted to tell him that she had come to get a few things, but she kept that to herself as she wanted to have a more serious conversation with him instead. It had been a long day for them, especially considering that they had been on their feet all day, lying as much as they could and trying their best to convince everyone about the marriage. The rest of the family had all retired to their own houses since it was already late at night. Lila and Levi had agreed to go to their homes and then meet up at their new house later in the night. Lila did not care about the house they lived in since she was not interested in getting married to him, so Levi did the research and got the house for them. She was only going to get the address and show up with a suitcase.

Every single time Levi spoke to Lila, she couldn't help but notice that something was different between them. She constantly found herself daydreaming about his long, slender fingers or maybe his face at times. Even though she did not want to admit it, she was sensing the growing feelings from her end and no matter what, she could not bring herself to accept it."Levi Beaumont?" she murmured to herself as she stared in the mirror. After the buzz feeling from the charity event was over, she was now back to the worker she hated so much. It was still a mystery to her why she would be fired and given such a job that was below her but she did not think about it too much, as all she thought about was trying to please her mother and occasionally Levi found a way into her mind."How can it be? How can I like him? It is impossible because I hate him and our families as well. Not only do I hate him because he is a Beaumont but also we have been rivals for the ongets time so this feeling must be

Lila told herself that the thing with Levi and his ex-girlfriend would not affect her mood but she was totally wrong. She stayed at the bar trying to make sure she did not see what they were doing but she was either drinking heavily or trying to turn around to see what had happened. She knew her mother would have been disappointed in her that night even though she did not really know why she would have been; all she knew was that she would frown and turn her nose upwards.From the bar where she stayed, all she could see was Levi and Fiona flirting uncontrollably. "Shouldn't he act as if he is married? I know that all of this is for show but still, what about respecting me?" she murmured as she circled the rim of her glass with her finger. She bent her head and sighed at how unlucky she was in life.She tried to cheer herself up but no matter what she said to herself, it did not seem to make her feel better; all she felt was worse. Her phone rang, startling her, and for some reason she

Lila finally understood why everyone cheered when they announced the people bidding because now she was actively raising her baton and screaming numbers in the air. Every time someone outbid her, she thought of her life before she raised it in the air and screamed a higher number. She knew her mother would think of her actions as foolish, but seeing that Levi was well-liked by everyone in the hall, she had no choice but to go higher.Levi could not tell if she was teasing him with her actions or if she was being for real with it because she had not seemed interested in anything happening since the bidding started. He smirked at her and received no reaction, as she seemed too busy with the bid. He prayed she would bid high, that she would win, as he would very much like that.Levi was not surprised by the numbers flying in the air; it was a charity, and every businessman wanted to use this opportunity to feel like a saint in society. Tomorrow, the headlines would read something noble a

The Mc told them all to have a seat, and Lila almost cheered in happiness. She was not uncomfortable with dancing with Levi; she just did not like the way they stared at each other and how awkward things were because of the kiss they shared. The host announced that the bid would be in two parts to raise money for a children's charity, stating that there would be two parts where they would bid on items as scheduled, and after that, they would bid on eligible bachelors among them.She had been a workaholic who would rather donate anonymously than show up to events like this, so she never knew what events like this were. Seeing that after hearing that they would bid for bachelors, everyone seemed normal, she had to agree that it was a normal occurrence as well.Everyone in the hall cheered. Lila looked around as she wondered if she was the only one who did not get the concept of the bidding on people's part. She did not pay attention to the auction as she heard people pour millions of do

The kiss continued, and both hands flew across their body as if this was not the first time they were doing this. With how swift they were, one would think they had been a cosy couple with each other. The way the lips moulded with each other was a sign that they both wanted this.Lila, however, was sure that it was because of how sad she felt earlier that caused this. She was not the kind of girl to just think of kissing a man and do it just because of the fun of it, and moreover, this was Levi; Levi was not the kind of man she would think of kissing just like that. She began to realise what was happening, and her heart was racing with numerous worries.'Why are your eyes closed? Why are you enjoying this? Why does it feel like something you've been missing and that you want?' Lila screamed at herself in her mind before jerking out of the kiss. It was hard to blame it on anyone, as they had both initiated and kissed each other with the same vigour. She stood up and hurried out of the

Lila just realised how popular Levi was as they walked in; different people kept standing up to talk to him, and he made sure to first introduce her to them before engaging them in any conversation whatsoever. Lila got tired of standing as she thought they would be sitting by then. She leaned into his ear and whispered. "I'll be in the washroom," she said before slipping away. She knew what they were speaking on, but she did not want to chime in, especially since they had not asked her to. She was glad to be away from the conversation and people at once. From the door of the room, she could tell that there was a group of girls in there, and from the sound of it, they were talking about someone.She got into the washroom and maybe the girls in there did not know she was the one but they seemed to be talking about her. "Talk about gold digger vibes," one of them said and the rest snickered."I mean, she swore that she hated him but then went on to marry him." It was obvious that these g

By the time the crew that was in charge of transforming Lila was done, it was already evening. Lila felt a bit sore from sitting through it all, but when she looked at herself in the mirror, it compensated for it. She could not remember the last time she was so glammed up, maybe when she was doing her modelling gigs while still at university. Seeing herself look that good sent shivers down her spine and made her feel self-conscious."Lila, I have to say if I weren't straight, I'd ask you to marry me right here and now," Jasmine exclaimed with joy. Eleanor had been kicked by Jasmine being in the room and fussing over every little thing that was done to Lila, and for Eleanor, this was the last straw; she did not like what Jasmine had said, especially in front of everyone there."What was that?" Eleanor asked, and Jasmine realised that she might have made a mistake. She shook her head and offered a smile instead. "I think it's time for you to leave," Eleanor added immediately, causing Ja

Lila didn't want to be a part of her mom's little house business, but seeing that she had no choice, she adjusted. Within a few days, she was already getting along with the staff. They were on a lunch break, and since she did not know where she was supposed to stand in the house while working, she decided that it might be a good thing for her to eat with the staff instead of on the big dining table all alone."Working here is so fun." Lila rolled her eyes when she heard that. She could not believe that she was forced to hear that at least three times a day. "Don't you just love it?" All the staff spoke about was how lucky they were to work there, and she was getting tired of it. She raised her head to see one of the house staff standing there. She bowed her head to her, and Lila stood up to meet her."The lady of the house said I should bring you with me," she announced. Lila's eyebrow furrowed as she wondered what her mother wanted. She barely interacted with her while she worked at t
