The Wills family actually began with perky college student, Millia Erude. Graduating with honors in Art, Millia moved to the quiet town of Magda-Crist County to start a new life. After she was settled, she was joined by her college sweetheart, Mark Wills. The two married and began to live what seemed to be the perfect suburban life. Little did Millia and Mark's neighbors know that they were living next door to professional art criminals.

An extremely talented artist, Millia was fed up with never getting noticed; her husband, Mark, a struggling musician and painter, felt the same. It was this frustration that led the two artists to apply their talents to a less than reputable trade - art forgery. To the outside world, Millia and Mark were loving parents to their young daughter, Kiley; good people who lived a simple life as decently known artists. Behind closed doors, however, the Erudes made more money at their deviant trade than they ever could have struggling to be seen.

The money and easy lifestyle gave Millie and Mark plenty of time to devote to their daughter, and Kiley grew into a bright, intelligent young woman who excelled in school and went to college on numerous scholarships.

Life is full of surprises, though. The Erudes always felt their family was complete, so it was with much surprise that Millia learned she was pregnant not long after Kiley moved away to college. Millie and Mark see young Kera as a true blessing, and Kiley quickly finished school, still excelling, and moved back to Magda-Crist County to be around for her little sister's first big moments. Millie and Mark decided to expand their family, and soon added daughters Kayli, Kiana, and Krista to the brood.

Not long after, Kiley moved her college sweetheart, Cooper Baena, in with her - the two soon married and had a child, Rachel. Kiley is currently mayor of Magda-Crist County.

Kera grew into a lovely, strong-willed young woman. She married a wealthy bachelor, Shaun Pai, and had twin daughters, Lana and Lola.

Sweet, smart Kayli married her first love, Leo Day. The couple has a young son named Christian.

Meanwhile, an elderly Millie and Mark stay busy visiting grandchildren and raising teen Kiana and their youngest child, Krista.
