inamorata - English Version
Isabella couldn't understand why Milo, the sole heir to the Kingham family fortune, had chosen her to marry. Milo had agreed to his parents' marriage plans to protect Sienna, a woman six years older than him, whom he had been secretly dating since his teenage years. He had struck a deal with Isa to marry her, allowing him to maintain his relationship with Sienna. Isa, who had never considered marriage as an option, ultimately consented to the deal. She was unbothered by the fact that their relationship would lack the intimacy of a normal marriage, or that Milo's attention would be focused on his long-distance lover. Isa found herself in a delicate situation, forced to conceal the love that had unwittingly blossomed by the third year of their marriage. This became particularly challenging when Sienna arrived to assert her rightful place as Milo's real partner. ⛔ CONTAINS MATURE CONTENT (RATED R /21+) PLEASE BE A WISE READER 🚫 Don't copy this story as yours.
