    THIRD PERSON POV

"it's the start of your doom. Count your days." The Christain said with a hidden smirk. His mind wandered around remembering all those things which he planned, finally it all coming as plan, his eyes rage with anger trying not to show it, he looked at Lily and smiled, finally I will make you pay, what you did to me, how you shattered my hope and dreams in love, I swear I will shattered the tiny thing you call hope, I will make your life miserable as my wife, smile or you can Lily, because it would be your last, I will make sure that tears is the only thing that is on your face.

 Flashback--

   Sir, this is the girl you are looking for, his secretary said, dropping a document on his table. Is it the girl involved in the same accident as Clara Christan asked. Yes boss he said, Lily  Wood, what a pretty name for someone who ruined my hope Christian said with a smirk. What does her father Christian ask, still looking at her picture. He runs a stock exchange company, and is involved in the production of technology, his major shareholders of AP corporations his secretary answered smartly. 

That good, she is from a wealthy family isn't she, no wonder she goes around causing trouble, Jake Christian called his secretary. Yes sir he answered immediately. Bankrupted the company, and prepared a marriage certificate and contract he ordered finally dropping her photo. Yes sir his secretary answered, exiting the room. 

 An hour later his secretary came in, he had spread false allegations against the company, and now the shares are dropping. Christian smiled at the good news, soon he would plan an arranged marriage, to raise the company and also to trap her. It only a matter of days he thought to himself.

_____________________________

Few days passed and Lily's father's company was going down, he kept worrying over and over again, this really broke Lily as after her mother's death the company was the only thing that gave him hope. His promises to his wife on her death bed to keep the company legacy, to give the company to her elder brother after his master, and to let Lily marry for love was shattering down, he said to himself that he wouldn't care if she marry someone poor, because he will be rich enough to support them but now he couldn't even know how to tell his children that they might leave the house soon. Looking at how worried her was, Lily vowed that she would do anything to help him, but the case was just too much on them.

I would like to see Sir, someone said, bringing Lily out of her thoughts. You mean my dad she stammered, he is upstairs in his room she said but what happens she asked out of her curiousity.  Good new young mistress, the company can actually be saved, Mr stones actually called to help the man said excitedly. Really, who is that? She asked again, having no clue who he was.  One of the top business man owning chains of companies, he goes from national to international the man explained before rushing upstairs.

She followed him to see what they wanted to talk about and why a rich man like that would help them. The little door opened in her dad's room gave her a chance to listen to their conversation. 

Really what does he want her dad asked in excitement, an arranged marriage between him and Lily, if you accept, him and his family will be coming over the next week and by today all rumor's will be cleared the man said.  No I can't do that, I promise Lily mother that…  her father tried explaining but his friend cut him Short. Do you want to live in poverty, you also promised your wife about your son taking over, this company was started by you and your wife, you can't lose an opportunity like that the man warned. Lily looked over at her dad and saw him shaking his head, she promised before to do anything to help and this is an opportunity for her. 

 Dad, I will do it. She said opening the door a bit wider, I will marry him and it will still be for love, because I'm doing it out of the love I have for you and brother she said. You sure Lily her dad asked again, yes Dad she answered. Tell Mr. Stones, we will take the deal, her dad said, still looking at his daughter.

 FLASH BACK ENDS

Soon the wedding was over,and they were on their way home, she smiled at her dad before entering the car.  Ok I'm on my way Mr stones her new husband said, as she entered the car. I will be leaving to go to the office, something just came up and I need to attend to it, he said coldly to her. Take me to the main Street, Jake waiting there for me, and then take her home he ordered the driver who simply nodded. She was happy when he came down at least, she had the car to herself.

 Meanwhile, Christian didn't have any work to attend to, it was just a plan, his secretary drove him home. He had instructed Lily driver to stop halfway, and pretend as if the car is faulty so she can walk all the way to his house, that will be a first taste of his torture to her, he had his bath and sat down at the balcony, waiting for Lily to come. 

At the other side, Lily had started a conversation with her driver, they were enjoying their talk and the driver got fond of already, he knows all about Lily from his partner Jake and was surprised that someone rich was nice to him, all the rich people he has walked for was either proud or rude, so rather than stopping the car where his boss had instructed, he decided to make it shorter and giving Lily an hour walk home. Christian had planned that Lily will walk for  three hours, but his driver thought otherwise. At the place he thought would be ok for her to walk from, he pretended the car was faulty and stopped. Ma I'm sorry the car isn't responding, he explained pretending to start it, I think the water has dried up he continued further. 

Oh gosh Lily complained, and there are no cars around, it's getting late and I need to change from this wedding gown, how long will it take  to fix it Lily asks with a worried tone. Till the next day, I think something got burned inside, he said, opening the bonnet and checking it. Fine then how far is it to the house she interrogates further.  An hour or two he answered even though it's just an hour. Fine, let's start going, we will walk there, call the tower company and lock the car. She tells him taking her luggage from the booth herself, she went ahead and soon he cut up with her. What your name she asked, Felix he replied. Well Felix I'm Lily she said even though he didn't ask, soon she start shooting him with questions about his life, the walk was quite pleasant and she enjoyed it. But they are other nightmares waiting for her at her new home, will she be able to handle it.
