PLACE: CARRINGTON'S MANSIONTIME: SUNDAY 6:45 PM"Everyone, listen up," William said from the head of the table, tapping the edge slightly to catch the attention of everyone. Williams was a family man, and for that reason, he had the entire family back at his mansion every Sunday for dinner to get away. That way, they could discuss and gloss over the events of the week and give each other updates. After dinner every night, the men got together and watched a sport regardless of what was airing at that time. They all seemed to enjoy the time together. The older women would go out to the balcony and have tea while talking; they called it talking, but everyone knew very well that it was gossip. The younger girls would cluster in Lila's room and try to really catch up on what had been going on. Everyone raises their head to William at the head of the table. He dropped his spoon to his plate and propped his elbow on the table so he could intertwine his fingers. Seeing his posture, everyon

LOCATION: BEAUMONT MANSION TIME: SUNDAY 8 PM"You are asking me Levi Beaumont to get married to Lila Carrington?" Levi asked for the tenth time in just a few minutes. He was standing in his dad's home office. Daniel was sitting behind a huge wooden table, and Levi was standing across from it. He had been called in by his father to give him some news. When his father asked him to come into the office after dinner, he expected anything else, but this was not on his bingo cards, and he was sure that he must have heard it all wrong. There was no way his father, Daniel Beaumont, who was the chairman of the Beaumont group, was asking him to marry a Carrington. "Dad, Beaumont's and Carrington's do not mix; they have nerve mixed for one day," Levi said before his father could say anything. Daniel took off his glasses and let them hang from his neck with the glasses rope, dangling it gently in the air. "They have never mixed for six generations." "Exactly, so I am confused as to what you

LOCATION: CARRINGTON'S MANSIONTIME: SUNDAY DINNER TIME"Sit back down this instant," William commanded. She looked around at the faces of the people she shared the table with, and she could tell that they were all telling one thing, and that was that she better sit down at once. She swallowed and sat down, facing her father. In as much as she always tried her best to obey him, she was not going to let him have his way this time around. This was not going to be in her favour in any way, and she could not just knowingly walk into it. "You would listen to me, and you would do what I say," he added. She shook her head at him. "Lila, listen to your father," Eleanor said. "But mom..." Lila whined. She could not believe how easily her mother had switched sides. She was just definitely on her side a moment ago, but all of a sudden she was telling her to bow her head and listen to her father because apparently, he was the one who had the final say. "There is no but here. I think it would

"How can Dad think to do this to me? This is very unfair," Lila said, pacing the entire floor of her room. The diner finished earlier than they would expect because of the awfulness. The men still stayed downstairs in the living room to still watch golf; Eleanor, Carrie, and Lucy went to the balcony. You have tea even though it was scorching hot that night. Elizabeth, Victoria. Amelia and Sophia were next in her room. If this was last week Sunday, they would have gossiped till midnight, and then everyone would have gone back home in preparation for the next day, but since the situation was different, Lila seemed to be the one in need at that time. "Why did you try to drag me into this?" Amelia asked lazily as she dropped to the bed, her head on Elizabeth's lap. Elizabeth ran her hand through her hair gently, which made her even more sleepy."Because none of you have thought of trying to help me out. You all just sat there like some statue watching him ask me about Marru Levi," Lila

THREE WEEKS LATERPORCH OF CHARITYWEDDING VENUE"Did Dad need to go all out for this? This is a contract marriage, yet he is celebrating it as if they were getting married for real," Elizabeth murmured to her sister. "I know right, he sure does not like to lose in something," Victoria replied as they walked to the bridal suite, where their sister was now sitting and waiting for them to call her so she could walk down the island and get stuck in the marriage of her nightmares. They opened the door and walked straight into the room; they turned a corner, and Lila was sitting there with her bouquet in hand. "Oh my gosh!" Victoria was excited, clapping her hand in the air. "Oh my days!" she added in excitement. "Do you think you are a little too excited about a fake marriage?" Lial asked watching her sister really get excited. "Why are you excited anyway?" "I mean, I have always imagined what you would look like in a dress as pretty as this," she said with tears falling in between he

"You may kiss the bride." Lila took a double take at the priest; she definitely remembered telling him to take out that part. She was getting married to him, but there was no way she would be doing anything intimate with him."Come on, sweetheart." She saw Levi's expression and could tell that this was his doing. How dare he think of doing something like this?She turned to the priest and smiled forcefully at him with gritty teeth. "I told you to take out this part.""Your husband asked me to leave it in."She turned back to him, ready to rain hell on him. She looked at the congregation, waiting for them to kiss. She knew that anything she did now would be remembered for a long time, and all of these people seated in the church on a Saturday afternoon were there just to know if the two families had gotten together. She pressed her lips and leaned into him.He held her by the waist and pulled her in. "I am going to kill you," she murmured against his lips."How can we make this believa

“Why would you come here? You are supposed to be at your husband's house,” William said when he saw his daughter sit in the living room with them.”Do you want people to gossip? You should go home.” Lial rolled her eyes at him. She wanted to tell him that she had come to get a few things, but she kept that to herself as she wanted to have a more serious conversation with him instead. It had been a long day for them, especially considering that they had been on their feet all day, lying as much as they could and trying their best to convince everyone about the marriage. The rest of the family had all retired to their own houses since it was already late at night. Lila and Levi had agreed to go to their homes and then meet up at their new house later in the night. Lila did not care about the house they lived in since she was not interested in getting married to him, so Levi did the research and got the house for them. She was only going to get the address and show up with a suitcase.

"You finally decided to come to your matrimonial home," Levi said. “More like a prison house,” Lila murmured as she walked into the house. She was trying to take in every detail of the house as she walked by. She could not lie about it. Levi seemed to be doing just a vain job like decorating the house, but he seemed to be doing it too well. He should not be that good at decorating a house in such a short time. “Since it is a prison for you, I would like it if we could adhere to all the rules that we had from earlier,” Levi said. He had spoken with his father, and Daniel had told him to stay alert at all times since he could not tell what the Carrington family could try to do with him. “Aside from the rules that our families have agreed on, I think we need to have rules of our own." Lila took out a plain sheet and a pen and dropped them on the centre table before dropping gently beside it. “You want to have separate rules?”“Our families might be at loggerheads, but we are the on

Levi followed her because they had to sort out the room situation. Somehow he had thought that they might share a room but after hearing what she had to say about their relationship situation, she knew that no way was ever happening. He might have to die first before they ever came in contact with each other."Is there anything else to say?" she asked, not turning back.Levi gasped in amazement; he wondered how she had sensed that he was following her when he was being as quiet as he could be. "Are you a witch?" Those were not the words he was supposed to say but somehow they had gotten out. He expected her to rain down curses on him for asking her that but her reply was more calm than she had thought."Well, my staff call me that so I guess you won't be entirely wrong to say at." Levi did not know he was to laugh or feel sorry for her. Knowing her staff were afraid of her and she knew yet it did not get to her somehow made him feel sad for her. "Is there anything we did not discuss?"

Levi stood by the door, shocked that she shut the door in his face. He had done this to get on her nerves, and he wondered how she always controlled herself. “Are you sure you are okay with the room?” he called out, trying to get a reaction from her but was met with silence. “If you want, we can swap it out,” he called again. Lila sat on the bed holding onto herself; she was not going to be the one to start something with him; he was being more than a pain in the ass to her, and she was just trying her best to make sure that they lived right. “One year is not that long of a time,” she murmured to herself. Levi walked away when she did not say anything. As much as he liked to pick a fight with her, he did not want to be a bully to her and now felt bad about changing her room because of a prank. He would give up the master's room for her tomorrow and move into the other room. THE NEXT MORNING Lila got up early as usual and went on her run as usual. She ran around the estate with he
