overall • known for her irresistible looks and her bright eyes, lilia casanova was quickly becoming one of the biggest names in modeling. she came from a small town in New York and got discovered on a weekend in NYC, and that's where it all started. at a fresh 21 years old, she had the body and the talent to get herself far. magazines started calling her the next supermodel, and they called it well - she was soon making a fortune, something that she certainly hadn't been born into. the high class life was starting to charm the beautiful lilia, so she thought she had her life set; she would marry another model and have gorgeous children, then sit back and sip champagne and do whatever the hell she pleased.
then, anderson ford walked into one of the gala premiere events and it was like nothing else mattered to lilia. he was tall and classically handsome, with a perpetually mysterious and brooding look on his face. the son of a wealthy businessman and heir to the family fortune, anderson was a perfect gentleman and by some miracle still single. the moment they met, there was instant chemistry. it was as if lilia was the one angelic girl that he'd been looking for all his life and finally found. they left the gala together and went out for a long stroll and some late coffee, and they talked into latest hours of the night. they started to see each other on a regular basis, and two years later the couple threw one of the biggest celebrity weddings that NYC had ever seen. They were young and still very much in love, and now they were both finally happy.
harrington knox ford was born on a cold december day, in a state-of-the-art hospital with all the latest technologies. lilia and anderson were both pleased to see that their baby boy had inherited their looks, and as he grew older they would see the same charm and mystery grow in the handsome little boy. his name, as antiquated as it sounds, comes from anderson's great great grandfather who started the successful, billion-dollar industry. it suited him perfectly, and he grew up a happy albeit lonely little boy. he had many playmates, dogs, and anything that he could ever wanted. his parents absolutely adored him, especially lilia - she still fawns over him, to this day. he developed into a mature, thoughtful young man who began to change when he hit middle school.
harry was drawn into the social circle that his financial situation permitted him, and soon he was living the high life with all the rest of them. once he hit high school he was at the top of his game, having already lost his virginity and made a good name for himself. he completed high school and went on to his first year of college. nothing traumatic happened, until the day that all his father's funds fell through and the company suffered complete bankruptcy. shocked, afraid, saddened, and embarrassed, the Ford family moved out of NYC and went to New Hampshire to try and re-cooperate. this was one of the hardest times in harry's life and he still remembers every single detail because it just happened not long ago.
they weren't sure the money could be recovered, but the Ford family was very lucky and they did manage to restore almost everything. now that they're back on their feet, one of the biggest family names is back in town, and harrington is there to stay. he's just re-enrolled in university and is looking to start some trouble now that he's back in town.
