Accidentally Married Book Two: Branch Ten
The entire day was filled with them trying to meet up with one meeting or another. Joshua had no time to overthink the confession but he still remembered it occasionally. They were standing outside the hotel they had just had a meal with some partners to discuss opening up a new office. Well, Joshua had a meal with them, and Aletta waited just a few tables away to take cues from him. Jack drove up to them with the car and Aletta opened the door, Joshua shot a look her way before he entered the car. Aletta raised her eyebrow in confusion. She could not quite place the meaning of that expression. She shut the door before she slid in before the driver. "Ms Brunswick, why don't we have dinner together?" Joshua asked as Jack began to move the car. "Sir?" she asked in confusion. Dinner? Why would he want to have another dinner when he already had one and why did he want to have it with her? "Are you uninterested in grabbing a quick meal?" he asked as if he was shocked he had to repeat h

Aletta cleared her throat as her eyes darted through the whole car. She could not believe the situation. Yes, she was wrong for confessing to him. She hated herself for doing so but why was he throwing a major tantrum? "Yes, I remember very clearly" she admitted. She breathed out and tried to steady herself. So what if she remembered? She had apologized already why was he dragging out like a big baby? "But I apologized already" she continued. She closed her eyes and pressed her temples with her fingers. "Does it end if you apologize?" he asked and his eyes shot open. Should he not let it go since she apologized and it was obvious she was trying her best to avoid the situation? Should he not pick up on that fast? Was he this slow concerning this kind of thing? "An apology is only complete when the other party has accepted" When the words left his mouth she found her head whipping to turn back to watch him. She gaped like a fish as she did not know what to say to counter him. She fo

"Yes Mr. Delgado," she said. "Then I don't mind at all, let us have dinner. I have a proposition for you" She sighed and nodded. She tried to warn him but he refused. She knew she might suffer but if she was brought to the limelight of the media she would quickly reveal that she worked as his assistant and that the meal was an official one to discuss work related matters. He tapped on the window to alert Jack. Jack hurriedly opened the door and waited for instructions. "You can clock off now," Joshua said his eyes widened. He threw a sly look toward Aletta. She did not know how to respond to that so she shook it off and pretended she did not see him. "Okay sir," Jack said before closing the door and walking down to the road to hail a taxi. "I will drive us then," Aletta said pulling off her seat belt. "Stay put, I will do the driving" "No" she screamed before his hand could get to the door. "Why?" he asked startled. "I can not let you do that" she lied through her teeth once

The smug expression that Joshua had when he began to drive was now gone because he had done very poorly at driving. As Aletta had predicted he was very bad at driving and now he was so ashamed he did not know how to react to save his face. When he pulled up in the parking lot of his mom's restaurant Aletta's grip on the seatbelt finally loosened and she took a sigh of relief. "I thought I would lose my life today" she breathed out which made Joshua close his eyes in shame. He opened the door and stood outside the door. He blamed himself for insisting on driving. He knew he needed to do better. Why did he have the license when he could not even use it? He walked over to the passenger's seat of the car and opened it up for her which startled her. "Oh my gosh," she let out in a scare. "Come on out," he said as he stretched his hands to her. He needed to pretend like he did not just put their lives in danger a few moments ago. "Can I have a moment?" she answered ignoring his stretche

Jessica was too glad to see Joshua and Aletta by his side. She wished he was not glued to his work like his father. She wanted him to enjoy his youth and have a nice time but it seemed like he was not interested. "I will get the special for today," Jessica said as she ushered them to a table. "Aren't you going to ask us what we want first? Or recommend a dish to us?" Joshua asked. "I know your palette already. Is today's special good for you?" she turned to face Aletta to which she nodded."Sure Mrs. Delgado" Jessica smiled to herself. She liked this girl, she was simple and blended well with her son but it was obvious her son was too blind to see her. "Can the waiter come to our table only once?" Joshua asked. "Why? Are you going to discuss a secret?" Jessica teased. "Yes," Joshua answered sharply. It threw Jessica off balance for a moment before she turned to Aletta."He is so uptight and kind of annoying. He is my son but I have to say so as well" she said in a fake whisper.

Aletta had never heard anything more shocking in her life. "Why?" she asked unable to comprehend why he would not have had female suitors. He was known to the nation's boyfriend so why would no girls hit on him? Surely he must have experienced it when he was in college. "I don't know, I did not know it happened to men where women confessed to them," he said. She wanted to burst out laughing and call him out for lying but his face said otherwise. He looked dead serious about it. How could that be? She was so sure that he would have experienced it. "So you mean to say all your life you have not had girls come up to you and tell you that they like you?" "It has never happened you were the first so I had to ask" he murmured. "Oh my god, that's so hilarious" she howled as the waiter dropped the plate on their table. He wondered how this ordinary woman was laughing to the face of his billionaire. "Will that be all?" the waiter asked cutting into the rich laughter coming from Aletta

Sounds of loud coughs filled the restaurant as Joshua rushed to fill her cup with water and pushed it to her face. "Here drink this," he said. She collected the cup from him and glared at him. "What?" she whispered as she dropped the glass from her mouth to the table. "I said you should.." "I did not ask you to repeat it" she continued in a low whisper. "So what do you say?" "No," she said without thinking about it. "Why?" "I will only answer that if you answer my question," she said and he nodded. He wanted to know why she would turn him down after confessing to him and calling him the nation's boyfriend. Her relaxed attitude in front of him also suggested she might be open to the idea. Was that not the reason she confessed? "Why are you asking me out?" he did not expect that to be her question. He did not know what he was expecting but it was not that. "Because..... Because" "See you don't even know why you are asking me out. I am in no position to be your partner. I am y

Aletta felt her breath hitch in her throat. Why was he being so hung up on the fact she confessed to him? "What do you mean by propose to me?" she asked silently without turning to face him. "I have a proposal," he said going to stand before her. "What proposal?" she asked slowly. "A contract, we draw up a contract and then we can date" "You do not have a reason to date me or do you?" she knew him well and that he did not have a reason to date anyone. His father was not pressuring him to have a wife and he did not need to impress partners. "I want to experience what it feels like," he said simply with a shrug. "In that case then I suggest you go out more often and meet new people then I am sure you would meet someone who will willingly date you," she said with a sigh. "Why don't you want to date me?" he asked crossing his hands over his chest. "Because..." she began and trailed off. She did not have a valid reason for turning him. Even if she wanted to end up as a spinster she
