Real Heiress: Flash Marriage With Boyfriend's Uncle
Born into one of the wealthiest families in the country, Layla Rosenzweig's true identity is taken away at the time of her birth by the mistress of her father. She is forced to live as the illegitimate daughter of the Rosenzweig Family. Everyone treats her no less than an outsider in her own house. "This is mine. That is mine. In fact, everything is mine," Layla's half-sister told her. Everything that belonged to Layla is given to her half-sister, including her boyfriend. Then, she is forced to marry her ex-boyfriend's ruthless uncle, Lucius De Salvo, the most terrifying man in the country. Lucius De Salvo is known for his ruthless ways to get his work done. His name is enough to terrify people. It is said that he is a man devoid of emotions. He will find pleasure in people's pain and misery. He loves to torment those who come under his radar. But why is he so lovely to Layla? Or is it just a pretense? "Are you ready for the wedding night, Darling?" Lucius asked. “I've desired you for a long time.” “What?” Layla was shocked. “Why would you?” “Because you are Layla Rosenzweig. The woman I like.” With that, he captured her mouth for a passionate kiss. ~~~~~ Follow me on Instagram: rayoflight_pcy
Something isn't right, Lucius
"Please don't take it seriously. That's just how we joke around whenever we meet," Lucius said with a casual smile, gesturing for everyone to take their seats at the dining table.
The atmosphere during lunch was filled with polite conversation, but the central focus was unmistakably on Orabela and Canvin's impending engagement. Both families' elders discussed the details with enthusiasm, their voices mingling with the clinking of silverware.
By the time dessert was served, they had reached a decision on the engagement date, sealing their agreement with satisfied nods and smiles.
Orabela, however, remained silent throughout the meal. She nodded politely when spoken to but refrained from expressing her true feelings about the arrangement.
Internally, her emotions churned with resentment and resignation. She despised the idea of this engagement, feeling trapped by the expectations placed upon her. Yet, she knew she had no choice but to go along with it.
