LISA'S POVHere is the corrected text in first person POV:I narrowed my eyes, my gaze fixed on Leo's fingers as they stumbled over the keyboard. "What's wrong, Leo? You're not usually this clumsy."Leo's cheeks flushed, his eyes darting towards me before quickly looking away. "Just tired, I guess."But I knew better. I'd seen the way he looked at me, his eyes lingering on my skin like a gentle caress. I'd felt the spark between us, the air thickening with tension."Try again," I said, my voice low and husky.Leo's fingers hesitated, then began to type once more. But his eyes kept drifting back to me, his gaze burning with intensity.My skin prickled, my heart racing with anticipation. I knew I should look away, but I couldn't tear my gaze from his.Finally, Leo slammed his laptop shut, his eyes locking onto mine. "I think I need some fresh air," he muttered, his voice rough.I nodded, my throat dry. "Yeah, me too."We walked side by side, the silence between us thick and heavy. But I
LISA'S POV We sat down to eat, Leo's grandmother began to explain her plan. "Today, I want you both to go on a little outing. Just the two of you."I raised an eyebrow, feeling a sense of unease. "What kind of outing?"Leo's grandmother smiled sweetly. "Oh, just a little trip to the beach. I think it would be lovely for you both to spend some time together, just the two of you."I glanced over at Leo, who was looking just as skeptical as I was. "I don't know, Grandma," he said. "I'm not really sure that's a good idea."But Leo's grandmother was insistent. "Nonsense, Leo. It will be good for you both. You need to get to know each other better."I sighed inwardly. This was not what I had signed up for. I was here to fulfill a contract, not to go on romantic outings with Leo.But Leo's grandmother was not to be denied. She packed us a picnic lunch and sent us off, insisting that we spend the day together.As we drove to the beach, the tension between us was palpable. We barely spoke, an
LISA'S POV The days went by so fast, the rituals for the wedding started to unfold. Leo's grandmother was keen on us doing all of the traditional rites to make our marriage strong. I had to admit, I was a bit skeptical at first, but she assured me that it was all part of the process.On the second day, we woke up early to begin the preparations. Leo's grandmother had arranged for a priest to come and perform a blessing ceremony. I was a bit nervous, not knowing what to expect, but Leo reassured me that it would be fine.The priest arrived, and we sat down in front of him. He began to chant and perform rituals, waving his hands over us. I felt a bit awkward, but Leo seemed to be taking it all in stride.After the ceremony, we were given a task to complete. We had to make a traditional sweet dish together, using ingredients that had been passed down through generations. I was a bit hesitant, not being much of a cook, but Leo took charge and guided me through it.As we worked together,
LISA'S POV I stood there, my anger and frustration boiling over as I watched Leo fail to stand up to Marcus. Why was he allowing his assistant to speak to me like that? Why wasn't he defending me?I felt a surge of indignation and hurt as I realized that Leo was just standing there, doing nothing. He wasn't even acknowledging Marcus's behavior, let alone telling him to back off."Leo, say something," I demanded, my voice shaking with anger. "Tell him to stop speaking to me like that."But Leo just stood there, his expression unreadable. He didn't even flinch, didn't even acknowledge my request.Marcus, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying the situation. He was smirking at me, his eyes gleaming with triumph."You see, Lisa, no one here respects you," he sneered. "You're just a pawn in their game. A means to an end."I felt a stinging sensation in my eyes as I realized the truth in his words. Leo wasn't defending me because he didn't care. He didn't see me as his partner or his equ
LISA'S POVAs I looked at Leo, I could see the anger simmering beneath the surface. I knew he was trying to keep it in check, but I could sense the frustration radiating from him.I felt a surge of anxiety, wondering how the rest of the day would play out. Would my father's behavior continue to cause tension? Would Leo's anger boil over?I tried to push the thoughts aside, focusing on the present moment. But my mind kept wandering back to my father's words, his refusal to accept the arrangement.Why was he being so stubborn? Didn't he care that I was happy? Didn't he want me to have a good life?I sighed inwardly, feeling a sense of sadness. I knew my father loved me, but sometimes I wondered if he really understood me.Leo's voice broke into my thoughts, his tone calm and even. "Lisa, let's go over the plans for tomorrow one more time."I nodded, trying to shake off my worries. "Okay," I said, forcing a smile.As we went over the plans, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. Wha
LISA'S POV I was still trying to process my father's angry words, Leo's grandmother burst into the room, a huge smile on her face. "Lisa, dear, I'm so excited!" she exclaimed, her eyes shining with enthusiasm. "Tomorrow's the big day, and I want you to come pick out a dress with me!"I couldn't help but be caught up in her infectious energy. Despite my father's anger, I felt a surge of happiness at the thought of choosing a dress for the special day."Okay, Grandma," I said, smiling back at her. "I'd love to."Leo's grandmother clapped her hands together, her face alight with excitement. "Wonderful!" she exclaimed. "Let's go right now! I have a few dresses in mind that I think you'll love."I stood up, feeling a sense of anticipation. I had no idea what kind of dress I wanted, but I was excited to find out.As we drove to the dress shop, Leo's grandmother chattered excitedly about the different options we would have. "I think you'll look beautiful in lace," she said. "Or maybe satin?
LISA’S POV As I stood outside, fidgeting with my dress, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. My parents were supposed to be here, but they were nowhere to be found. Leo, my fiancé, tried to reassure me, but I could see the concern etched on his face."Maybe I should get someone to stand in for your parents?" he suggested, his voice soft and gentle.I immediately shook my head, feeling a surge of panic. "No, you can't do that! It's not the same, Leo. My parents need to be here."Leo sighed, his eyes scanning the crowd. "I know, but they're not coming, Lisa. We have to face that. And with Grandma here, we can't afford to have an empty seat where your parents should be."Just then, Leo's grandma appeared beside us, her warm smile a stark contrast to the anxiety churning inside me. "Darlings, what's going on? You look like you're about to face a firing squad."I forced a smile, trying to hide my distress. "Just a little nervous, Grandma.

"Today, we gather to celebrate your love, and to witness your commitment to each other. Lisa and Leo, will you please repeat after me?"We nodded, our voices echoing
