Chapter 1 Heart Breaking News

Lilian's heart pounded in her chest as tears rolled down her eyes. The words of her father echoed through her ears, creating a livid expression to her body.

What her father had just asked her to do was the most terrible and forbidden thing to do. Mr Alfred looked at his daughter in pity, he regretted what he was asking her do and wished he didn't have to do it.

"My dear, daughter. You must understand that this is beyond my will, Sebastian is not a bad person, he's been married to your sister for years and now that your sister is dead, you have to take her place as his wife."

Lilian shook her head, her dark brown hair falling across her face with a thud. "I can't marry Sebastian, Father. it's only been one week after Katherine's death." Lillian's voice quivered as she spoke, the emotions that were swirling within her were too overwhelming. "I can't get married to her husband, people will think I killed her just because I wanted Sebastian."

Mr Alfred rubbed his hand against his forehead. He knew he was putting a lot of pressure on his daughter and it was taking all of his strength to convinced her. "Lilian, you don't have to care what people has to say. This is more than you think, this is for our family."

Lilian took a shaky breath before responding. "Father, why do I have to do this? I don't love Sebastian, how can I spend the rest of my life with him."

A tear escaped from her eye as she let out a shaky sob. She felt so angry, she could barely speak, but her voice still sounded shaky. "Father this is more to me than to the family."

She wiped her tear away with her fingers before standing up and turning away from her father, who sat on the bed.

Mr Alfred felt bad for his daughter, he wished there was another way he could do things. He wished his first daughter didn't die. But there wasn't another way for their family.

"I know how this must be for you, but if there's another way, then I would've done it. This family had an agreement with the Rojas Alvaro family," Mr Albert explained.

Lilian turned toward her father, her anger dissipating slowly, her blue eyes now held concern instead of anger. Her heart dropped to the pit of her stomach when she saw concern in her father's eyes, the last time she had seen them like this was at her sister funeral.

"What deal, father?" Lilian whispered.

Mr Alfred lowered his gaze. "Before you were born Rojas Alvaro family and this family made a business deal. The Rojas Alvaro family were the first to discover the marketing method behind the creation of new products that can sell more efficiently."

Mr Albert sighed and continued. "I decided to partner with them to make the production in our company effective and unique. It was the best, Mr Rojas and I became close friends and because of that the company is where it is. Mr Rojas was pleased and asked if we could be partners forever, and the only way that could be possible is if we passed it on to our children."

"Mr Rojas suggested that our agreement for being partners should be something that should last forever, so he put it on paperwork that our children should get married."

Mr Alfred paused, taking a deep breath before continuing. "The deal is sealed, and so are the papers that confirm the agreement. That means no one is permitted to talk about it, or even read it, until Mr Rojas and I decided to do so."

Mr Albert paused for a moment and stared into Lilian's eyes. "But this agreement is what made the company where it is today, I can't change that agreement or everything we have will be taken away from us."

"This is more than I thought," Lilian said quietly.

"Everything was alright until your sister died and now this family's only hope is you."

Tears rolled down Lilian's eyes, she couldn't believe she was about to throw away her hopes and dreams just for her family sake, plus the fact that she had to live with a man she don't love.

"I believe Sebastian is a good man, he'll love you and Katie will take you as her mother," Mr Albert said trying to comfort his daughter.

"But I'm not her mother." Lilian stated firmly. She tried to keep her voice strong and steady but failed miserably.

Mr Albert's facial expression changed from one of guilt and regret to that of joy and gratitude, making Lilian smile. "I know she will, all she need now is a comforting hand."

Lilian took in a deep breath deliberating if she should do what her father asked her to, she knew there was nothing she could do. She was all their family had. She had to do that. She had to marry the man she don't love.

"Father, this is the toughest decision. My life is at stake. What if the people that killed Katherine come after me, what if they come after Katie?"

Lilian pleaded with her father hoping that he would find some other solution besides marriage. She didn't want to marry Sebastian and she was certain that if there was other solutions things won't be difficult.

Mr Albert placed his hand on his daughter's shoulder, giving her a gentle smile. "If anything ever happened to either of you then there will be nothing left to live for. Your mother and I will always be here for you."

Lilian gave her father a reassuring smile. "Yes, Father I know. I believe you, but what if they are really that powerful?" Lilian questioned, her fear evident in her voice.

"They're humans, they have weaknesses and they will always have flaws and that's their weak pont."

Lilian nodded in understanding, her eyes glistened as more tears began to fall. She wiped her tears away with the back of her hands and stood up straight, facing her father. "Alright, I'm going to do this."

"Good, I know you can do it.'' Mr Albert rose up off the bed with an exhausted sigh.
