A Marriage Of Inconvenience

Accidental Groom Of The Substitute Marriage Wife

On the day of her wedding, Evie Yong’s world shattered before her very eyes as her soon-to-be husband trashed all their past eight years of relationship by denying her at the altar, in the presence of everyone. However, forced to watch her fiancé stolen, Evie couldn't believe her stepmother and stepsister dared to plot such a scheming plan to ruin her completely. Devastated and feeling betrayed, Evie had to come up with a quick option to save herself from all this mess and that was when she had to flee away from her wedding in shame and soon figured out a plan to strike back in such a way that her enemies will be put into ruins, just as they once did to her earlier. === “Mr. Lu, It seems we're both victims of circumstance. My groom has abandoned me for my sister, and your fiancée has run away. Why don't we turn this awkward situation into an opportunity?” She smiled boldly. “Let's get married, right here, right now!” Lu Tiancheng’s expression remained unreadable, but briefly, a hint of intrigue flickered in his eyes. He raised an eyebrow, “You're suggesting we marry each other and also we are complete strangers?” Evie Yong nodded, her confidence unwavering. “Why not? We're both clearly compatible and this way, we can both save face and gain a partner, except for the fact that this will be a contract marriage of six months.” Lu Tiancheng's gaze lingered on hers as if sizing her up. Then, he nodded slowly. “Very well, let's do it.” === “You're either very brave or very reckless to make such an attempt in picking me as your husband in public,” he said after the marriage. “If I didn't try, we wouldn't have figured out a way to get this opportunity.” She responded. …. He's a giant of entrepreneurship, standing high among moguls. She was born out of wedlock and denied by her family. She's been fighting tooth and nail to make a name for herself in the cutthroat world of entertainment, refusing to let her illegitimacy define her destiny. Two strangers are brought together under one roof, but their newfound connection has dangerous people lurking around. There are evil people scheming and eagerly waiting for Evie’s downfall and never going to stop until they successfully get her kicked out of the door. But funnily enough, those games are the very things that will ultimately lead to their own downfall, as Evie uses their schemes against them and turns the tables in her favor.

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.
