Absolutely Not! (Lando Norris)

Belle

How could I be so stupid? Lola confirmed that my marriage to Lando was legitimate; there were photos on both our phones of the nuptials. All I needed to do was find someone who could get this reversed and I can pretend like this never happened.

The drive back from Vegas was a lot quieter than on the way there. We pulled up to the house we shared on Campus with another girl, Ronnie from Berkeley. I noticed a car sitting in the driveway but assumed it was a friend of Ronnie's, right now I couldn't give a shit who it was. All I wanted to do was go to bed and wake up from this nightmare.

"It's ok Belle, we will sort it" I felt Lola place her arm around my waist as we walked up the porch steps and into the house. That's when I nearly dropped dead. There sat on the sofa was my father, stepmother and older brother, what were they doing here? I could feel the tension already in the room.

"I'll be in my room Belle, if you need me" Lola looked at me with a sorry look before heading upstairs. I swallowed hard before turning to my family.

"Sit down Arabella, we need to talk '' My fathers stern voice echoed throughout the room. I didn't hesitate and sat down in the chair opposite the trio. My brother looked at me and smirked...Shit they knew about the marriage, but how I'd only got married 18 hours ago.

"Arabella, I am so disappointed in you. How could you be so reckless and stupid?" My father looked to me for answers.

"I-I. I'm sorry" I could feel the tears building up.

"This is an absolute mess. I had to find out that my 21 year old daughter is married to a F1 driver via Instagram."

"He's a what?" I looked at my father, oh wait. Lando was an F1 driver. That's what he meant by tickets and money.

"Oh this is even worse. You don't even know him. You have no idea how bad this looks on the family business and us as a family."

Of course the family business always came before my fathers family. The Caulley Corporation was a multi billion company , it was originally my grandfather who started the business as oil , that had since been passed to my father and in the future would be passed to my brother. My father started taking on more businesses that made his wealth growth rapidly.

"Calm down Percy. The girl realises she's done wrong. We now need to figure out how to fix this mess" My stepmother Felicity or as everyone called Liss, gave me a sympathetic smile. We never really got on, her and my father met via an affair they had whilst he was still married to my mother when I was younger, something I never truly forgave them both for.

"I have an idea" My brother Nate looks at my father. My brother was not my number 1 fan, he hated that my father paid me more attention when I was in training but then after the incident Nate became my dad's number 1 and he never let me forget it.

"Go on Nathaniel" My father looks at my brother as if I wasn't even sitting here, they did this all the time.

"Belle could stay married to Lando until this deal goes through and then once it has, they can divorce. We can spin it as good press and say that due to work commitments they decided to both go their separate ways. No one will question it"

"Are you fucking kidding me? Absolutely not. That's a stupid idea" The words leave my mouth before I can even process what I said.

"Don't you think you've already done enough. Your brother is right, if you want to make this right, this is what you will do. We will arrange to meet with Mr Norris and draw up contracts for this. To avoid any further embarrassment in this family, you will go along with this"

I wanted to scream and shout back but my father after all these years still had control over me. I just nod as I held back the tears.

"We are leaving now. I suggest you stay low and don't make any more drama for this family. I will have Nate contact you once we have arranged a meeting with Mr Norris" With that my father storms out with Liss following behind. My brother stands smirking at me.

"Oh sister, how could you be so stupid" He lets out a laugh before he heads out and closes the door.

I couldn't hold on to the tears any longer as they streamed down my face. All I wanted was my father to love me but everything was either a competition or something that would look bad on the family.

Surely Lando wouldn't go ahead with this plan?
