LISA'S POV I stood up from the bed, my movements swift and deliberate. My sister's eyes widened in surprise, but I didn't give her a chance to ask any more questions. I knew that if I lingered, she would pry and probe, trying to get more information out of me. And I wasn't ready to give it to her. Not yet.I turned and walked out of her room, the soft carpet muffling my footsteps as I made my way back down the hallway. My mind was racing with thoughts and emotions, but I pushed them all aside, focusing on the task at hand. I needed to get some rest.I entered my own room, closing the door softly behind me. The room was quiet and dark, the only sound the soft hum of my alarm clock on my nightstand. I moved swiftly, switching off the lamp and plunging the room into darkness.I walked over to my bed, feeling my way through the darkness. I slipped off my shoes and socks, letting out a soft sigh as my feet sank into the plush carpet. I climbed into bed, feeling the softness of the blanket

LISA'S POV The room was filled with an air of anticipation as everyone waited for Leo's arrival. My family and Liam were all seated in the living room, each busy with their own phones, their faces bathed in the soft glow of screens.But I couldn't sit still. I paced back and forth across the room, my hands clenched into fists as I tried to contain my nervous energy. I felt like a caged animal, ready to burst free at any moment.Liam watched me from his seat on the couch, his eyes filled with a mixture of concern and understanding. He knew I was anxious, and he was trying to be supportive.My mom glanced up from her phone, her eyes meeting mine for a brief moment before returning to her screen. She was trying to stay calm, but I could sense her own nervousness beneath the surface.My dad was oblivious to the tension, too engrossed in his phone to notice anything else. Louisa, on the other hand, seemed to be enjoying my discomfort, a small smile playing on her lips as she watched me pa

LISA'S POV I glanced over at him, taking in the strong lines of his profile. He was lost in thought, his eyes fixed on the road ahead. But as he sensed my gaze, he turned to me, his eyes softening into a gentle smile."Hey," he said quietly, his voice low and soothing. "You okay?"I nodded, feeling a lump form in my throat. "Yeah," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "I'm okay."Leo's smile faltered for a moment before he reached out and took my hand, his fingers intertwining with mine in a gesture of comfort and support."We'll get through this," he said quietly. "Together.”I wondered why he was been so nice. I couldn't help but be surprised by the calm tone in Leo's voice as he spoke to me. I knew he was only pretending to care, but a part of me wondered if maybe, just maybe, he was being genuine. I had seen him use his charm and good looks to get what he wanted before, but there was something in his eyes that made me question my doubts.As he told me that he wanted to marr

LISA'S POV As we pulled up to my house, I could feel my stomach knotting with anxiety. My mum, dad, and sister were already outside, their faces twisted with anger."Great," I muttered, feeling a sense of dread. "They're already here."Liam glanced over at me, his eyes sympathetic. "You okay?"I shook my head, feeling a sense of resignation. "No, I'm not. But thanks for asking."Liam nodded, his expression understanding. "I'm going to drop you off and go. I don't want to be involved in this anymore."I nodded, feeling a sense of relief. "Thanks, Liam. I appreciate it."As Liam pulled up to the curb, my family began to stalk towards us, their faces furious."Lisa, get out of the car now!" my mum shouted, her voice shrill.I sighed, feeling a sense of exhaustion. "I'm coming, I'm coming."Liam leaned over and opened the door for me, his eyes locked on mine. "You okay?" he whispered.I nodded, feeling a sense of gratitude. "Yeah, thanks."As I stepped out of the car, my family closed in

LISA'S POV My dad spoke up, his voice firm but resigned. "You know what, maybe Louisa's right. You can marry Leo, Lisa. But don't come running back to me when things go south. Because I won't be able to help you then."My mum nodded in agreement, her eyes filled with concern. "Lisa, sweetie, please reconsider. You're making a huge mistake."But I was resolute. "No, mum. I've made up my mind. I'm going to marry Leo, and I'll deal with the consequences."My dad sighed, shaking his head. "Fine. But don't say I didn't warn you. You're playing with fire, Lisa. And you're going to get burned."My mum tried again, her voice soft and persuasive. "Lisa, think about what you're doing. Think about the family business, about your future. Is Leo really worth risking all of that?"But I was stubborn, refusing to listen. "I'm not risking anything, mum. I'm following my heart. And that's all that matters."My dad threw up his hands, exasperated. "Fine. Do what you want. But don't come crying to me w
