Levi opened his mouth to ask her what was wrong, but he was sure that she was not going to respond. From the violent shaking and the sobbing, she knew that something was wrong, and it disturbed her greatly, but she would not say anything was wrong with her and just sat there crying. Instead of trying to get to the root of it, he fell to her side and consoled her until the crying subsided. By the time she finally stopped crying, she felt a bit angry with herself that she had exploded into tears for something so trivial."I'm okay," she murmured as she was finally able to pull herself together."Are you sure?" he asked, looking around, and she nodded."Okay then, I think you should rest a bit," he said, helping her to her feet. She felt embarrassed by what had happened, but it had happened, and there was no way for her to erase the past. She wished that someone would comfort her and just tell her that everything was going to be fine in the end, but Levi did not say anything more and jus

Just after Eleanor had dismissed them from Lila's longest breakfast in a long time, Jasmine arrived at the manor. Lila felt happiness and relief wash over her. She was glad that she did not have to third wheel her mother and sister anymore and did not need to fight the confusion she felt when it was just her and Levi. She knew that her father would be angry to know she was getting soft for the man they had put her to marry. Yes, none of it made sense to the simple man, but she could never remember her life making sense to anyone before now."I will leave now," Lila announced without waiting for her mother to dismiss her. She stood up and walked to the exit without a word."Why does she act like that?" She heard her mother ask and she wanted to go back in and tell her that she was the reason she acted the way she did but she knew that there was going to be a fight over this if she did that so she let it slide off her back without waiting to hear if anyone would defend her or agree with

After Jasmine left, Lila did not want to stay and feel suffocated in the house, even though she did not like the feeling; she knew there was nothing she could do about it, so the best thing to do would be to find a way out, and since she wanted to see her dad, she knew that this was a good opportunity for her to go out. She was worried about Levi; however, she knew that with the way he had been acting, he might not want her to go to the hospital, and she needed to try and sneak out of the house.She did it successfully and gave herself a pat on the back. When she got into the hospital room to see all the tubes connected to her father, she could not help but feel guilty that he had gone into this state because of the trouble she had caused. Her father was different from her mother, at least. He did not ever think to make her feel inadequate, even for one day, and it hurt to see him lie down like this without being able to be himself to the fullest. The weekly family meeting with all of

Elizabeth was pacing and let out a sigh of relief when she saw a car roll into the compound and Lila get out of the car. She rushed to her and pulled her into a hug. She did not know why she was worried about her sister when she was a full adult who could take care of herself. She could not just understand why she would take off from the house without letting anyone know where she had gone. She was, however, happy that Levi was with her at least."What are you doing?" Lila asked, feeling a bit uncomfortable by the hug. Her sister had been too annoying with the way she acted these past few days and she did not want to blame her but she was still mad at it."I was so worried; where have you been?" Elizabeth asked as she pulled back from her. She searched her body frantically as if she was thinking something bad had happened to her."I did not think that my being gone for a few hours would change anything for you," Lila murmured. Seh did not want to say anything, but she could not help h

"You aren't even acting like someone who wants me to be here; it seems like I have made a mistake," Elizabeth said. Her tone sounded too sad for Lila to ignore, but she hated that her sister was the one who had been in the wrong and now she was the one who felt bad about it."Did you come here to see me?" Lila said in response, ""What?""You and Mom act like you are the only ones who are in the world. You go out together, you jog together, you do shopping, and act as if I am not there the entire time. So, how on earth can you expect me to believe that you are here for me?" Lila couldn't believe that all the words she had been brewing inside her heart had finally made it out of her mouth. Her chest rose and fell quickly as Elizabeth stumbled to her feet with a shock on her face and the glass in her hand tumbling and shattering on the ground.Lila knew that now was the right time to stop, but since the cat was out of the bag, it would be better for her to just let it all out at once so

Lila was not sure if the noise she was hearing came from her house, but she had to check. She threw on a robe and was out the door immediately. They still had a few minutes before breakfast, and she was taking her sweet time. Levi was behind her as soon as he saw her dart out of the room. She followed the sound to the doorway of the house and was shocked to see the scene before her.Elizabeth was going back and forth with her mom; she was trying to take her luggage out of the house, but her mother kept on dragging it back in. Lila immediately understood what was going on. Elizabeth was trying to leave, but her mom did not seem to like the thought of it at all."Where are you going?" Eleanor asked angrily."Home," Elizabeth replied without showing any emotions."What do you mean by home? This is your home," Eleanor said. "Moreover, you just came here, so why on earth were you in a hurry to leave?" Eleanor added with a frown."Mom, come on, I am married and have a family of my own, so..

Lila watched the car go off into the distance before she composed herself and retired to the room with Levi. She decided to get ready in case she had to do anything with her mother later in the day. She knew that Eleanor Carrington would soon get over the situation and she would be the odd one if she still stayed hung up on what happened earlier.She was in the closet when she heard a knock on the main door; before she could answer it Levi had gotten to it and her mom stepped into the room. Her eyes fell on the bed that she and Levi shared and she looked at it with so much judgement in her eyes. Lila felt weird, and it made it worse that she could not tell what she was judging in the room.Lila cleared her throat and walked up to her. "I want to speak to you," Eleanor said before her daughter could ask her why she had come into the room."Let us talk outside," Lila suggested, and her mother nodded. She turned on her heels and walked out of the room without sparing Levi a glance. "I'll

As soon as Lila opened the door, she bumped into Levi, who was standing by the door; he held her by the waist before she could fall to the ground. They stared looking at each other in the eyes for a while before she cleared her throat and jumped out of his hands."I am sorry," she blurted without thinking."You are sorry? Why?""Huh!""Huh!""What?""Why are you sorry?""It's nothing," she said, and he nodded. She looked up at his dressing, only to realise he was dressed differently. "Where are you going?" She was trying to act as if she did not care, but something pricked her heart."The office," he responded with a frown as if this was something she was supposed to know.It dawned on her then that their honeymoon was over, and she was also supposed to resume today. She had been so caught up in everything that she did not even count the days again. "Oh right," she said, nodding as she realised she had lost her job on the same day that she was supposed to resume."Aren't you going to

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

Lila walked to her room. After the busy day, all she could think about was lying in bed with the covers all the way to her neck and sleeping as if that was all she knew how to do, but she knew it was a hard goal for now; she had to change into something her mother would like to see at the dinner table and then go down for dinner. She stopped in her tracks when she heard Levi's voice. She had been too busy even to know he had returned from work. She pressed her lips together as she listened to the conversation. She did not mean to eavesdrop; he was the one making what seemed like a personal conversation in a public space."Are you sure you are fine?" She rolled her eyes as she heard him ask for the tenth time since she stood there. She could not determine who it was over the phone, but judging from the way he spoke and how delicate he sounded, she knew it had to be one of his girlfriends. She felt anger surge through her. He was married to her but was still keeping his options open. Wh

Lila put on the uniform and stared at herself in the mirror. She looked like a plain maid; she could not bring herself to believe that she was a CEO earlier in the morning, and now she was supposed to be a maid. She knew that it was going to be a hassle to discuss this with her mom, so she let it go. Maybe she was trying to punish her for making Elizabeth leave the house earlier this morning. She took a deep breath and packed her hair to match the outfit. She looked at herself again and tried to smile before leaving the room.Her mother frowned as soon as she set her eyes on her. "What took you so long?" she asked."I was getting ready?' Lila replied in a sheepish voice as she stood beside her."Stand there," Eleanor said, directing her to stand beside the other four people wearing the same thing she was wearing. She nodded and stood beside them. Eleanor began speaking; she told them that their responsibility was to take people around the manor and help them settle in. She told them h
