As soon as Georgia reach the age of 25, it was their family tradition to get married and find a partner to spend the life with. But unfortunately, Georgia has been single for almost five years now and not ready to fall in love again because of her past. So, instead of dating someone, she hired a man named Wilson to be his husband. Little did she know that it was a billionaire she asked for. Will their relationship turn out well? Or her family will find out about the contract?

Chapter 1

Beginning

Georgia

"Georgia, it's time for you to settle down with someone."

I glanced up from where I was resting on my VIG Chesterfield sofa, mid-shift to keep from indenting the material, as I'd trained myself to do. At the foot of it stood my mother, who was giving me such a deep disapproving look that I almost, almost made a move to sit up properly. Her expression was the definition of disappointment. Slim nose upturned, devil red lips twitching. I already knew where this conversation was heading and I let my cheek fall onto the cool leather with a sigh.

"This again?" I said.

"You're almost thirty, Georgia," she said, folding her arms across her chest, the many bracelets lined with diamonds on her arms jingling as she moved.

Her dark hair was tied in a tight bun on the top of her head, giving her an all-around stern aura.

I raised an eyebrow at her. "I'm only twenty-five. I don't really think that's close to thirty."

"Your father and I married when we were twenty-two," she said matter-of-factly. "It's time for you to stop fooling around and creating scandals and making our family look

bad."

"I don't make our family look bad-"

"-And it's time for you to start your own family so we can give a head start to the next successor of our business," she pressed on.

I pushed myself into a sitting position, making sure to smooth out myy waistcoat, lest I gave her something else to complain about. "So, you expect me to meet someone today and fall in love with them, get married, and have children? It doesn't work like that. Well, maybe it does nowadays with all the dating apps going around, but I'm not like that."

"There are plenty of young man interested in you. Charity's son has been asking for your hand in marriage since you two were five. He's very handsome, too."

I raised an eyebrow at her. "Legal arranged marriages aren't a thing in America anymore. It's 2023, not 1975. I don't want to marry someone just because it helps our business."

"You want a marriage made out of love?" she asked, her voice taking on a hard edge. "Rich families marry into other rich families to keep their wealth. It's what all our ancestors have done before us and what we will continue to do. That's how we keep our business alive."

Arguing with her was fruitless. "I'm not interested in marriage right now, that's all."

She closed the little distance between us, hovering above me intimidatingly.

"I've given you twenty-five years of freedom. I've given you everything you've ever wanted. All I ask is for you to repay me with the promise of keeping our business alive."

"And I will, just not right now," I responded firmly.

The business wouldn't be going anywhere in a long time. We were basically the new Hiltons. What was eating at her? Why was she suddenly trying to force this on me?

And besides, after what happened on my past relationships? I think I had enough.

"You have no more choice in this matter. If you don't settle down, I will take your car and your house."

"What? But I own this house and my car. You can't threaten me with that."

My mom smiled cruelly and I felt a chill run down my spine. "You think I can't find a way around that?"

As much as I wished she was joking, I knew she wasn't. I scrambled off of the sofa, placing my hand over my pocket where the keys were. "Wait a second."

"Wait for what?"

"Isn't this a little abrupt? I need time to think about it first. You can't just barge in here and expect me to go along with this."

"It shouldn't come as a shock, Georgia. You can thank your brother for that." A surge of heat shot through my body.

I bit my lip, clenching my hands so tight my fingernails bit into the skin of my palm. Don't fall for it, I warned myself. She just wanted me to back down. And she knew where it hurt the most.

"Your brother wouldn't give me this much of a hassle."

"How can you use Lee against me?" I said tightly.

"It's your choice, Georgia."

"I'll... I'll find someone." It wasn't like I had a choice.

I just had to think of a way out of it. Quickly.

"Will you?"

"Yes."

"Good."

"However, I want you to give me a year."

Her eyes narrowed. "A year? For what, exactly?"

"I would like to find someone on my own. Then when the year is up, I'll bring him to you, and we will talk about marriage. You can't really expect me to just suddenly meet someone and marry him, can you? At least let me meet a few of the other candidates first."

The room was deathly silent as my mother contemplated my offer. I could feel sweat forming on the back of my neck. lf only she would agree to my proposal, then I could have more time to figure out what to do about the utimatum she'd given me. If she said no... what could I say against her when she used Lee as leverage?

"Six months," she finaly said.

"Six?"

"You may have six months to date someone," she permitted. "Not a day more. When the time is up you must bring the guy you choose to me and I will decide if he will be allowed to marry into our family. If he fails, you'll marry the one who I choose."

Of course, there would be conditions.

There were always conditions.

"Fine," I agreed, knowing she would get her way no matter what.

I had to take what I could get. The wrinkles on her forehead relaxed and she smiled.

"Good. You may keep your car. Make sure you come to work today. There's someone you need to fire."

"I understand," I responded, watching as she turned on her heel and clicked away from me.

As soon as she left, I collapsed back onto the sofa, feeling a headache coming on. why was she so adamant about marriage? I was perfectly content with the way I was living my

life-satisfactory and alone. I didn't feel the need for a boyfriend. And even if I did have any of those needs, I could find a willing partner from the local bar.

For now, I had to find someone to at least trick my mother into thinking was my boyfriend. It wouldn't be too hard.

It wasn't like I didn't have the physical appearance to goal someone into doing it. I was on the cover of multiple business magazines. Paired with my conditioned polite and charming personality, I knew I was a good catch. And if that weren't enough, I'd just show them my bank account, only money could buy me a boyfriend, I thought wistfully. Then it hit me.

The plan was simple. Find a man, hire him to date me for six months, fake a break-up right before I brought him to meet my mother, and then claim I was too heartbroken to move on.

That way I wouldn't be forced into a marriage with a stranger and I would be allowed to stay single until I met the person I was meant to be with. Surely my mother would feel pity for her daughter going through his first heartbreak like before. It would be easy.

I grinned to myself, adjusting my blouse.

Let the fun begin.

This book was not well done. It is suppose to be a billionaire woman and a low income male, however they constantly say the male lead wears a skirt and braids another males hair and the woman lead is very masculine sounding. I made it to chapter 4 and quit.

Georgia Calloway
Wilson"Willy, table four has been waiting over two minutes for someone to come and take their drink order," Collin, the manager on shift, said as he walked by me, heading toward thehostess stand.I blinked at him, trying to ignore the fact he got my name wrong for the thousandth time while wondering if he noticed my arms filled with plates of food for a different table. When he glanced over his shoulder and frowned at me, I gave him the fakest smile Icould produce. "I'll be right over.""Good."Rolling my eyes, I hurried back to table number seven. I hated table number seven. I didn't know if I was just my luck, or maybe the table was cursed, but whoever sat there ended up always being the rudest and crudest and most condescending people on the Earth.This time around it was a bunch of businesswoman in sleek suits that tried to leer down my shirt every time I leaned over to clear a plate or glass."Chicken Cordon Bleu," I announced as I set down one of the plates in front of a bunc

Double Trouble
Wilson"Maybe I'll forgive you if you give me a kiss," she joked, causing all of her douchey colleagues to laugh along with her.For the tips, for the tips, for the tips, I chanted in my head. "Maybe when I get out," I flirted.Her eyes flicked up and down my body and I felt my skin crawl. Ew, just ew. "Anyone else need anything?" I inquired.One of the other ladies muttered something I probably didn't want to hear under her breath. I decided to take their silence as a no, so I flashed them a quick smile and hurried away. Tables two and eight needed to be wiped down still and I didn't see either oneof the two busboys on shift around to clean it.Just as I turned to head into the back Collin appeared in front of me, scaring me a bit."Geez, warn a man when you're approaching like a ninja.""Please wipe down tables two and eight" he requested, pulling at his necktie. "They've been dirty for the past fifteen minutes.""I'm way ahead of you," I said, letting a little irritation bleed int

Offer and Tip
On my way back to the table a hand shot out and grabbed my arm. I jumped a little bit, relaxing when I realized it was just Georgia."Gotta pee," she stated.I pointed to the far left corner of the restaurant. "Over there."Using me as a support and almost taking me down, she pulled herself up and then stumbled to the bathrooms, muttering something about marriages. I glanced at Solene, who shrugged at me.I returned the card to Star Spangled Lady and she filled in the tip and signed the receipt, handing the notebook back to me. It was hard to resist the urge to see how much she tipped, but I managed to slide it into my back pocket. "Thank you very much, have a good night you guys. Get home safe."As I turned to walk away, I felt a heavy arm across my shoulders. "You said yer comin' home with me."I saw the spangled ribbon and felt my stomach churn. "Please don't touch me.""I know you like me. You were eyeing me all night. Lucky you, little blonde guys like you are my favorite."I tri

Looking For Husband
Georgia"The plans for the hotel in Wailea, Hawaii have gone accordingly. Both our construction team and the town mayor have approved the blueprints. I have the estimated budget here and if you approve, you may sign and we could start the construction by next week."I looked up from my phone to see a few nervous pairs of eyes blinking at me. I turned to my wild-haired assistant, Henry, who had the same apprehensive expression on his face.I'd forgotten I was in the middle of a meeting. I had no idea what we weretalking about. I cleared my throat. "If my mother agrees to it, let's go along with it.""Uh, Georgia, your mother said for you to oversee this," Henry whispered to me. "If we go to her she will scold us.."I shifted uncomfortably in my seat. Were they still talking about the building of the hotel resort in Wailea? Or had we moved on to something else? I couldn't concentrate today.It was all that guy Wilson's fault. It'd been one week and he had yet to call me. Every few secon

Surprised Visit
Wilson"Hey, does the last name Calloway ring any bells for you?" I asked Arian, exactly one week after the whole restaurant fiasco. We were currently at my other part-time job, a coffee shopbaptly named Coffee House. Arian was, decidedly, my best friend. He may have filled that role solely because I didn't have any other friends and we worked together a good portion of the week, but I was more than content with him. He was cute and friendly and an all-around good guy. The type of person everyone needed in his or her life."If I answer that will you fishtail my hair for me?" he responded, pointing at his dark hair tied up in a messy bun on the top of her head. "I was already late for work and couldn't really do anything with it.""Fine, fine, sit down."Arian cheerfully took a seat on one of the stools lining the countertop. Fortunately, the coffee shop was pretty dead, as it usually was in the afternoon, so I had plenty of time to fix her hair up. "I'm actually worried that you don

Big Deal
"Yeah, a weird note," I told her, pulling it out of my pocket and handing it to her. "Don't you remember? Or were you too drunk?"Brows furrowed, she smoothed out the wrinkled paper and skimmed over it. I waited for her reaction to the tip amount, but her face didn't change. "I was worried that I didn't leave a tip, but I see that I did.""What's with the forty-three cents?" I asked because I couldn't help myself."I like for a flat dollar amount to be taken out of my bank account."Well, that kind of made sense. I didn't understand how she wasn't in shock over the total, though. "Yeah, I've been meaning to return it to you.""Return it to me?""You were drunk, you didn't know what you were doing. I haven't spent any of the money." I promised her. "I'll return it to you right now. Let me grab my checkbook.""I don't want it," she interrupted, shoving the receipt back at me. "Do as I said and take it as an advance."I paused, staring at her like she was crazy. "An advance? For what?""

First Date
WilsonMy phone went off for the tenth time in twenty minutes. Annoyed, I pulled it out of my pocket to see the name Georgia Calloway flashing on the screen. Was she some kind of crazy stalker? I'd never met anyone who would call someone every two minutes if they didn't answer right away. Not wanting to give her the satisfaction of me answering it, I decided to just turn off my phone. Then it wouldn't be as distracting."Georgia again?" Arian called from the back room."Doesn't she know I'm at work?" I wondered out loud. Like she'd asked, I'd sent her my schedule at Coffee House for the week. So if she'd got it, why was she trying to call me during the middle of my shift? I couldn't just answer my phone at work. Well, I actually could, but I wouldn't tell her that."Aren't you kind of excited?" Arian said as he returned with an armful of coffee bean bags. "She's so gorgeous.""She's cute, but hee personality needs some work," I responded, thinking back to the comment about my dick.D

Awkward Moment
"Hello?" I answered."Did you give me a false address to deceive me?""Uh, no. Why?""I don't think I'm in the right place."Walking over to the one window in my bedroom that looked over the street, I peeked out of it, seeing a sporty black BMW idling in front of my apartment.Yeah, that was definitely her. "I'll come outside," I told her and hung up, quickly pulling on a pair of jeans and throwing on the first shirt I came across.The stairs groaned as I descended them in my socks, feeling my heartbeat start to increase. I hadn't got to warn Georgia of just how crappy my apartment was. No wonder she thought she was in the wrong place.A squatter was entering the first-floor apartment. I gave him a quick wave. Once outside, I hurried over to the BMW, tapping on the tinted window. It rolled down and Georgia appeared, looking apprehensive."This is a prank, right?""What is?""You live here?"I gave an awkward laugh. "Er, yeah. It's affordable. I'm almost ready. You can come up and wai

Make Over Part 1
WilsonFor the first half of the car ride, things went smoothly. The music stayed loud and Georgia kept her mouth shut. Then around the hour mark, she turned the volume down."I'll be parking my car right outside of the city and a driver will be picking us up to chauffeur us the rest of the way," she told me."Why don't we just stop at a station and ride in?"She wrinkled her nose. "Why would I ride in on dirty public transport when I have a driver who gets paid to drive these streets?"While I wasn't the biggest fan of public transport either, I wouldn't have gone that far. The subways and trains were very useful in the crowded city. We'd probably be sitting in traffic longer than it would talke to ride into the city. I didn't argue though. I figuredmy words would fall upon deaf ears. Georgia seemed the type to do whatever she wanted no matter what anyone else said.And I was getting paid to do this, so I didn't have much say anyway."Where are we going?" I asked, looking down at my
