Hello Everyone!

HERE'S OUR TWO MAIN CHARACTERS:

Ella Davis:

Ella is a woman of contrasts, vibrant yet vulnerable, determined yet deeply wounded.

At 24, she's full of life, beauty, and ambition, having just secured her dream job as the secretary to the vice president of Denco Groups, a powerful conglomerate she's admired for years.

But life has a cruel sense of timing. Just as Ella is ready to celebrate her hard-won success with Klaus, her boyfriend of three years, she's hit with a devastating betrayal. Finding Klaus in bed with another woman, Ella's world crumbles.

Heartbroken and humiliated, she storms out and drowns her sorrows at a nightclub.

In her drunken haze, she meets a mysterious, handsome stranger who offers a brief escape from her pain.

But this one night of mistaken bliss will set off a chain of events that will change her life forever, plunging her into a complicated, dangerous, and unexpectedly romantic relationship with a man who will challenge everything she thought she knew about love.

Arec Weston:

Arec Weston is the definition of control, calm, calculated, and fiercely ambitious. As the vice president of Denco Groups, he's been groomed for greatness since birth, with only one obstacle standing in his way: the archaic family rule that requires him to marry before he can take over as CEO.

Arec has always dismissed love as a distraction, but his grandmother's relentless pressure and her plans to marry him off to someone of her choosing are pushing him to his limits.

Seeking solace in his usual haunt, a high-end nightclub, Arec's life takes an unexpected turn when he meets a heartbroken woman who captivates him in ways he never anticipated.

What starts as a simple one-night stand quickly becomes complicated when he realizes that the woman he had a one night-stand with, is none other than his new assistant, Ella Davis.

As their professional and personal lives intertwine, Arec finds himself drawn to Ella's resilience and spirit, leading him to propose a contract marriage, an arrangement meant to satisfy his grandmother and secure his position. But as their fake relationship deepens, Arec begins to question whether he can really keep his heart out of it.

GLOSSARY:

Denco Groups: A prestigious and influential conglomerate that dominates the urban business landscape. The company has a strict tradition that requires the heir to be married before assuming the CEO role, symbolizing their ability to manage both a family and a business.

Contract Marriage: A legal arrangement between two individuals where the marriage is based on a contract rather than love. In this story, Arec proposes a contract marriage to Ella as a strategic move to satisfy family demands and secure his position at Denco Groups.

Arec's Grandmother: A formidable matriarch and a driving force behind Arec's life decisions. She's obsessed with ensuring that Arec marries and upholds the family tradition, going as far as trying to arrange a marriage between Arec and Joanne, a woman from a prominent family.

Joanne: A fashion designer who has known Arec since childhood. She returns from Paris with hopes of marrying Arec, supported by his grandmother's wishes. Joanne is a key antagonist, scheming to sabotage Ella and Arec's relationship.

Klaus: Ella's ex-boyfriend whose betrayal sets off the chain of events leading to the story's central conflict. His infidelity is a catalyst for Ella's downward spiral and her eventual involvement with Arec.

One-Night Stand: The pivotal event where Ella and Arec meet under emotionally charged circumstances. This encounter marks the beginning of their accidental forever.

Reginald Michael: The wealthiest man in the world and Ella's estranged father, who has spent years searching for his ex-wife, Lucy, and the daughter he never knew. His discovery of Ella's identity brings another layer of conflict and drama to the story.

Lucy Davis: Ella's mother, who left her wealthy husband after being tricked into believing he didn't want her. Lucy raised Ella on her own, and her history with Reginald becomes a pivotal point in the story.

Reginald's Family: The opportunistic relatives eager to inherit Reginald's wealth, who scheme against Ella once they discover her true identity as Reginald's daughter.

THE BOOK'S WORLD SETTING:

The story unfolds in a fast-paced urban environment, a sprawling metropolis where the business world and personal lives intersect in high-rise office buildings, luxurious nightclubs, and rich family estates.

At the heart of this world is Denco Groups, a towering symbol of power and legacy in the city's skyline. The company's headquarters, a sleek glass-and-steel structure, is both a battleground and a fortress, where decisions that shape lives and futures are made.

Ella's world is one of ambition, a place where she's clawed her way up from modest beginnings to secure a position in one of the most powerful companies in the city. Her life outside the office is marked by the emotional scars of betrayal, but also by a resilience that drives her to keep moving forward, no matter the cost.

Arec's world is one of privilege, burdened by the expectations of his family and the weight of tradition. His life is a careful balance of maintaining control and fending off the relentless pressures from his grandmother and the corporate world. The nightclubs and penthouses he frequents offer only temporary escapes from the suffocating responsibilities that await him at every turn.

As Ella and Arec's lives collide, they must navigate the complex web of corporate intrigue, family expectations, and their growing feelings for each other.

The city becomes both a backdrop and a character in their story, with its bright lights and dark corners reflecting the highs and lows of their tumultuous relationship.

This world is one where the stakes are high, emotions run deep, and every decision can change the course of your life.

In Our Accidental Forever, love isn't just a feeling, it's a battle, a journey, and ultimately, a choice.

You'll find yourself rooting for Ella and Arec as they fight against the odds, discovering that what started as a mere contract might just be the love story they both needed.
