Life After Marriage

After Marriage (GL)

AFTER MARRIAGE A story where opposites collide, a contract turns into connection, and love struggles to survive between memory and fate. Two strangers. Two different souls. Two entirely different countries. And one unexpected bond… that neither of them can escape. “After Marriage” is not your typical love story. It’s filled with comedy, drama, fights, raw emotions, hate, and eventually… a love so complex, even fate struggles to contain it. Meet Sita and Vedehi — two women, each battling the crushing weight of family expectations, personal heartbreaks, and the relentless search for someone who truly understands them. Sita is calm, reserved, and craves peace in a world that constantly demands too much from her. Vedehi, on the other hand, is a storm — loud, lively, unfiltered, and unapologetically chaotic. Where Sita loves order, Vedehi thrives in mess. Where Sita enjoys silence, Vedehi can’t eat without music blasting in the background. So how do two such polar opposites end up married? In a desperate bid to escape the mounting pressure from their families and the loneliness of being abroad, they both travel to England — hoping to find their perfect match. But what they find instead… is disappointment. Then, in a moment of impulse and mutual frustration, Vedehi proposes a contract: Two years. No feelings. Just marriage on paper — to silence the world around them. Sita agrees. But things were never going to be that simple. Sita’s heart still belongs to someone else — a girl she once loved deeply and is still searching for. Vedehi, despite the contract, starts falling for Sita — quietly, helplessly, and completely. She even helps Sita in her search, all the while hiding the ache of her own growing affection. And just when the truth begins to surface… Fate intervenes. A tragic accident. A forgotten memory. Sita wakes up — and remembers nothing. Not the contract. Not the marriage. Not Vedehi. Everything they built, everything they shared, vanishes in an instant. Now, Vedehi stands at the edge of heartbreak — holding onto memories that no longer exist in Sita’s mind. Will Sita ever remember her? Will she ever feel the love that Vedehi so silently, so selflessly gave? Or will this marriage remain just a forgotten contract, lost in the fog of time? "After Marriage" is a heart-touching story of two women bound by circumstance and separated by memory. It’s about fighting for love when love itself forgets you. About rebuilding what was once broken. And about discovering that sometimes… the real love story begins after “I do.”

Love after marriage (Elena)

Liam is the CEO of a giant company in London and one of the wealthiest businessmen in the United Kingdom. He has two wives; Elena, his first wife—a strong, independent, and successful woman in her field. Elena’s Company: An investment firm specializing in luxury real estate and sustainable urban projects. She owns several developments in London and Paris, known for her smart and pragmatic leadership in expanding the European market. Liam’s Company: A massive tech conglomerate focused on artificial intelligence and digital infrastructure. Based in London, it is one of the largest providers of technological solutions to governments and major corporations across Europe. The Major Project that Forced Their Marriage: Project Name: Lunex Global District Concept: A huge redevelopment project transforming an old industrial area in East London into a fully integrated smart city, including financial centers, residential towers, and advanced technological facilities. It is jointly funded by Liam’s tech company and Elena’s real estate firm. Reason for Marriage: The deal was fraught with political and financial risks, and local governments required a stable long-term partnership. The two families decided the best way to secure this alliance was through the marriage of the direct heirs: Elena and Liam. The marriage was a "strategic human alliance" to ensure the project’s success and safeguard their shared interests. Elena and Liam’s marriage was never a love story but a family agreement between two influential dynasties. They married five years ago for reasons of power and influence. A month after their wedding, Liam married Maria—his longtime lover, a stunningly beautiful woman. Since then, Liam has never spent a single day with Elena. Elena lives alone in a lavish mansion in one of London’s upscale suburbs, while he resides with Maria in another estate. He never touched her, never loved her, and spoke to her only with cold business words. Their relationship is nothing more than a stiff contractual agreement. Liam’s family had a tradition that bothered Elena greatly—the monthly family dinner. Tonight was the night for the monthly dinner hosted by Liam’s parents in their grand ancestral home. After finishing her work at the company, Elena headed there. As soon as she entered the luxurious dining room, her eyes fell on the usual scene: Liam sitting next to Maria, his arm lazily draped around her waist, whispering words that made her blush, then turning a cold, unfriendly glance toward Elena. But as always, his mother and father greeted Elena warmly, as if trying to compensate for the coldness that shrouded her marriage to their son. She sat quietly in her assigned seat, lifting her head proudly, hiding everything boiling inside her beneath her composed expression.

After the Contract Marriage with the Tycoon

by: 织墨 Everyone knew that Ye Tingtong was the little tail of the Shen family’s young master, Shen Minghuai. However, apart from his stunning looks, he had nothing else to offer. Shen Minghuai was utterly annoyed by this. No matter how much he rejected Ye Tingtong, the latter always wore a warm smile, clearly head over heels in love with him. During a gathering at the Shen family villa, Shen Minghuai was playing a game of passing a tissue with his mouth with a girl next to him. Ye Tingtong, who was “deeply in love” with Shen Minghuai, sat nearby, head lowered, dejectedly reaching for snacks in front of him. He didn’t care whether Shen Minghuai liked him or not. As long as this relationship kept him from being used as a marriage tool by the Ye family to marry some old man, that was enough. Just as the atmosphere reached its peak, a cold, detached voice suddenly came from the staircase on the second floor. “You’re being very noisy.” Shen Minghuai was so startled that the tissue in his mouth fell out. “Uncle?!” Shen Minghuai’s uncle, the current head of the Shen family— Shen Jin. Dressed in a tailored suit, tall and imposing, he stood at the top of the stairs, his commanding presence making everyone below avoid his gaze. Ye Tingtong put down his snack: Who is this? So intimidating. Before he could even look up, he felt a scrutinizing gaze fall on him. Ye Tingtong’s hair stood on end. This was someone he couldn’t afford to mess with. Later, when Ye Tingtong saw Shen Jin again at the Shen residence, he was carrying a glass of honey water for the hungover Shen Minghuai. The two unexpectedly met in the hallway. Shen Jin: “There’s someone in his room.” Ye Tingtong quickly understood and was about to leave when Shen Jin glanced at the honey water in his hand. Tentatively, Ye Tingtong offered it, “Uncle, would you like some?” Shen Jin took the glass and left with a remark, “Call me Shen Jin.” Later, when Shen Minghuai couldn’t find Ye Tingtong anywhere, he knocked on the study door, “Uncle, is Tingtong here?” Ye Tingtong was pressed against the door, his hazy consciousness briefly clearing, “Shen Jin…” Before he could finish, his lips were gently kissed. Then, he heard Shen Jin’s deep, husky voice. “He’s not here.”
