 "You and your sister have to leave this house today," my stepmother said, calmly.      "And you can’t come back. Ever," she added.      "I agree," I answered without hesitation, even though I could feel my heart fragmenting.           "You also need to give up your shares of your father’s company.”      "Fine.” I did my best to show not a sliver of emotion. "Anything else? Just get it over with."      "Oh, just one last little thing.” Her smile sent ice water dripping down my spine. “You will be marrying the eldest son of the Devereaux family."      I’d more or less predicted everything else, but that caught me off guard. "Why?" I asked.      "Because someone has to, and it’s not going to be me. And someone like you, an orphan, is the perfect match for a lowly tailor!" a smug voice came from upstairs.      I rolled my eyes at my stepsister Caroline’s comment, but decided not to dignify her with a response.       "Because we can't break the agreement,” My stepmother explained with a sigh, ignoring Caroline. "And Caroline already has a boyfriend."      So I need to marry a stranger I've never even met. Figures.        I wished I could refuse. I desperately wanted to.       But I really didn’t have much of a choice.       My grandmother was still lying in a hospital bed, and my little sister was about to start school.      Half a hundred thousand. That's what she promised me.      "The money will be transferred to my account immediately after the marriage," I confirmed, looking my stepmother in the eye.       Half a hundred thousand. It was far less than what she had taken of my father's assets, but I knew I had the choice of taking it or being thrown out of this house penniless.      "Yes, as long as you agree," she replied.      I drew in a long, slow breath, trying to calm my nerves. "I agree."      "Wonderful."      “The promised wedding was supposed to be in two months, but for some reason they asked to move it up. Since you agreed, the wedding will take place in a week. And then you can live a happy life with that tailor boy.” She smiled the way which I hated.    A tailor? They're going to regret and eat their own fists when they see my insanely handsome millionaire husband.

Chapter 0002

Lacey I stood in the church, profoundly uncomfortable in my wedding dress. It wasn’t the dress’s fault. It was a lovely thing, lush satin trimmed with lace and delicate beading, with a flowing skirt and graceful sweetheart neckline, but it didn’t feel right. Nothing about this wedding felt righ

Lacey’s POV “Lacey?” I whirled around, cracking a grin as soon as I saw who the man was: my childhood best friend Jason, dressed smartly in a sharp suit. His dark hair was slicked back, face clean-shaven, hazel eyes bright and excited as always. I wasn’t used to seeing him so cleaned up, I

Chapter 0010

Nicholas’s POV When I entered the banquet hall, every head in the room swung my way. I cursed under my breath. The damn bodyguards, as always. I paid no mind to the attention, to the pathetic cloying businesspeople and their wallets full of ulterior motives. The bodyguards waved them off.
