CALVIN: The Billionaire's Defiant Bride

Everything is all changing in a day. Life has never been funny. Just yesterday I travelled back to California and now I was on my way to the court house where I'd be getting married. Again. To an unknown Billionaire. Oh, Cora, how'd you even get here? I was so happy to finally see Ariana. If only I knew what awaited me was that. But even so, could I have said no? I would still have done something — especially with the situation mum got herself in. And the car finally put to a stop and before I could try to open it, the driver who also appeared like a bodyguard rushed to open the door to my surprise. “Be careful,” mum whispered beside me as I tried to get down the car and I rolled my eyes. The long damned white dress that I was in made me uncomfortable. Apart from the fact that it made me look innocent and too cool, it made me feel weird. That wasn't my style. I liked to look elegant and sophisticated and not like a damn princess. Looking like a princess was for Ari. Oh my sister,

After almost an hour of driving, we were finally in front of a gigantic black gate and according to my thoughts, the gate slid open and the car drove in.Lights glimmered in my eyes immediately. The whole compound was very lighted and as the car pulled over, the guard hurried to open the car door.“Welcome to your house, ma.”“Thank you,” I returned and followed him, my eyes taking in the compound. Trees were planted scantily and apart from around 3 types of car at the right hand side, I'd have considered the compound to be empty.Who doesn't have a garden in his compound? Well, I do not blame him, his hostile look might kill off the flowers after all.“You can go in ma,” the guard's voice finally brought me out of my thoughts and I realized we were in front of a glass door already. “Lorraine will help you out.”“Thank you,” I took the two steps in front of the door before I pushed it open and at once, warmth welcomed me, much to my liking.“Oh my god, you're finally around!” An elder

“You do not get the right to kiss me without my permission,” Calvin's irritated voice rang in my ears as soon as I closed the car door and I turned to him at once.“Really? I do not get to kiss you? Are you a God or something?” Anger laced my voice at how unbothered he stared into space. Everybody was staring.While that man, Jayden or whatever, talked, everyone had their eyes on us and were waiting to see if he was right and I did what I thought was best.But it's this man I did it for. What did I think? He was going to think he's a god.“It was stated in the contract. You don't get to touch me without my permission. Talk more about kissing me. And especially in front of the crowd.”“Understood,” I gritted and leaned into the car, “And I hope you stick to it,” and with that, I grabbed my earpods from the purse and my music accompanied me until we were homeAs soon as the car stopped in the compound, I was out. “You are here,” Lorraine smiled as soon as I entered the room and I crash

Calvin barely said a word to me in the past two days. The only thing he did was nod to my greetings. He obviously was still mad. But what could I have done?Reaching the living room, I stopped for a second as his eyes met mine before they ran on my body and I felt them linger longer on me.“Here, have it,” he stretched a paper I collected and scanning the document, my jaws dropped. What? A Company Certificate? With my name on it?Is he kidding me? How…“You—”“Sign it. After that, you can go see your company.” His lazy voice dropped and my eyes widened.“It's all set?”“All set. Now sign it.”And that moment, happiness bloomed inside of me and I hurriedly scribbled my signature down. I now own a centre? One of my dreams! It was all done, huh? That easy? Oh my god! I was a CEO!“Thank you very much!” I screamed through a smile to Calvin as I looked at him and I saw his brows raised slightly before he nodded and stood, then out of my sight.Bad. He couldn't even say anything. Who cares

“I'm not interested in meeting with you in any way,” I texted the number in rage before I hit the block button. It was just one contract Calvin got for me, why's she so pissed about it?My phone buzzed and I reached for it hurriedly worried a number could text me even after I blocked them before I saw it was someone else. Ariana.“I'm on my way,” I screamed as I typed before rushing out of my office. It was the day of meeting her and I have been looking forward to it for days now.Reaching the parking lot, I paused. Would I be calling Brandon to take me? No. What if I have a discussion with Ariana and he hangs around to hear? I couldn't let that happen.Immediately, I was boarding a cab and minutes after I had reached the restaurant holding onto my handbag that contained the money she asked for.Not a lot.It didn't take long before I sighted my sister. At the corner of the restaurant like she'd always stay so as to avoid people.There, looking gorgeous and soft. Oh my god, I've miss
