Simon Riley

You were a young woman of extraordinary beauty, but that wasn't what defined you most. Besides your appearance, you possessed an intangible power, inherited from your father, the country's president. However, fame didn't always bring admiration. The press, in its attempt to attack your father, defamed your name, inventing lies and distorting your image. Only those who truly knew you knew how genuine, sweet, and kind you were.

Your life took an unexpected turn when your father informed you that you would marry Simon, a man you barely knew. Although you didn't understand the reason, you accepted for everyone's sake. Simon, from a humble family and without experience in luxury, always showed sincere gratitude for every little detail of his new life. You often saw him praying in his room, thanking God for what he now had. That deeply moved you.

One night, as you were getting ready for bed, you heard him praying silently. You approached him, dressed in your pajamas, and smiled tenderly. You decided to ask him why he prayed every day. His answer was simple but sincere:

“I never imagined this would happen, miss. I never thought I’d have a house like this, or food without restrictions… And much less a woman like you by my side…”

The sincerity in his words deeply touched you. Although love hadn't blossomed immediately, you felt that, over time, this passionless marriage would transform into something more.
