Chapter 1
It began in the restaurant Edward and Mark discussing business
"I will save your company but on one condition since you have two daughters I want one of them to marry my son, I don't want my son to marry from a family which I don't know," said Edward looking at him
Mark pulled out a long face " What, but this is a big decision for my daughters"
Edward stands up from the chair " This is up to you, if you are ready to save your company, you know where to find me" He left the restaurant
Damn what am I going to do, I can't just sell my daughters just like that. He felt helpless. Mark's company was in a bankrupt situation, and the only choice to save the company was Edward since he was rich and had many businesses
Lola arrived home finds her parents packing their staff into the car "Mom I got your voice note, what's going on?" she was confused they seem to be moving out
Grace looked at his daughter "Sweaty, just go inside and check if I packed all of your staff We are moving out"
She was confused and afraid to start a new life, and new friends and she was not ready for all of those things " Why Mom?" John comes out of the house carrying a box, she looked at him " Dad, why we are moving out? " I like it here"
Grace responded before John, she knows he loves his daughter very much and he might tell her the reason "Sweaty, I know you like it here but we have a reason for moving out and we don't have time to explain now, but we are doing this for our family"
" So where we are going? " she asked
" In Mallbone " responded Grace
When Mark arrives home he finds his wife, Amelia sitting on a couch " How was your meeting with Edward? Did he agree to help us? I'm worried"
Mark seat on a couch " Where are the girls?"
" Daphne is in her room and Laura is out, tell me. what did he say? She sat on the same couch with him
Mark took a deep breath " He agree to help us but he has his demands to help us" Amelia was a little relieved. He continues to speak " He wants his son to marry one of my daughters"
Daphne was coming out of her room and she heard their conversation. She was happy, she wanted the family to pick her but she was confused why Leonard is looking for a wife, he was young still in university " Did I hear you correctly is Leonard looking for a wife? " she said smiling
Mark was angry "Were you eavesdropping on us? "
" No, Dad I was going to the kitchen and I overheard your conversation" responded Daphne
" I know it's tough, the company is falling but I won't sell you because of money"
" Why did Leonard want to get married at a younger age? He has not yet graduated" Dephney doesn't know that Edward has another son except Leo, and nobody knows him in town because he spends more time overseas
" Not Leo he has another son. He is overseas now, he is the firstborn, his name is Nicky nobody knows him in town even Me, I don't know him
" Okay," she thought it was Leo. Leo is Edward's lastborn, he is young, handsome, and doing his second year at Mallbone University. She assumes that the man might be ugly and old which is why his father arranges a marriage for him" Dad if this is the only way to save the company, we can do it "
Amelia was confused" Honey what do you mean by that? "
" If Laura and I are the only hope to save the family we will do it. If I was the firstborn I was going to do it without hesitation because I love my family, but I won't do it because I can not get married before my sister" She was lying. She was trying to make her dad pick Laura because the man might not be good at looking
Amelia smile" You are so sweet honey " she looked at her husband" Daphne has a point Laura is the first born she is the one who has to save the company" She agrees because Laura is not her daughter
Mark was angry, he loves Laura more than Daphne, which makes Daphne and Amelia jealous of Laura" I won't sell my daughter because of your selfishness we rather sleep in the street than my daughter" He walks away angry
When Lola and her family arrive at Mallbone it was around 3 pm and the house was not ready for them to sleep in so they book a hotel.
Lola in a hotel room" I don't understand why they choose to move out, there is nothing special about this place. I hate it here " she was angrily talking alone
She decided to look outside the hotel to clear her mind, a lot was going on in her mind. A few minutes later she goes back inside the hotel, just because she was thinking a lot, she ends up lost and entered the Wrong room. She sat on the bed, she heard the sound of water in the bathroom and she ignore it. Then she saw a man coming out of the bathroom, with a towel wrapped around his waist and he was half naked, she looked at his chest and six-pack, the droplets of water falling from his short black hair
Leo came out of the bathroom and he was surprised to see a strange beautiful girl sitting on a bed" Who are you? " he asked in his deep voice
She then realizes that she entered the wrong room, and she coughs" I'm sorry, I entered the wrong room " She runs away without looking back. When she arrived at her room, she lie on the bed. Dem who is he and how did I end up there
Mark was in his study room, and Amelia came to talk to him " I'm sorry for what happened earlier I didn't mean to upset you, I know you love our daughters and you can do anything for them, but just think about it. Is not big for Laura to be married to the Smith family, the family is wealthy and they will take good care of her just think about it and I love Laura too, she is like a daughter to me, if it was simple for Daphne to get married first before her sister, she was going to do it, but our culture doesn't allow that" she was just pretending and using culture so that Mark will Choose Laura For marriage since she was the elder daughter
Mark looked at her" Okay I will think about it
