2024-02-20 07:45:08"I guess the surprise has already hit you"he observed.
Unable to speak,she nodded her reply."I know that this may come as a shock to you but you were highly recommended "he continued.She frowned in confusion. "What is that supposed to mean?"she asked skeptical of his intentions. With a wide grin on his face,he leaned in closer across the table."I have a proposition for you"he said."What proposition?excuse me,but am trying to wrap my head around the fact that am sitting across from the owner of the enterprise I work in.Wait,was this even planned?"she blurted out.Her mind going in different directions trying to piece everything together.He straightened up now.And gave her a once over before opening his mouth to speak. "This meeting was purely coincidental.Although I can't say,we wouldn't have met either way.But am glad it happened sooner rather than later."he explained."So what do you want from me?"she asked ."I just want to propose something to you"he declared."You've said that already"she interrupted."That's how serious I am about it.So hear me out"he ordered.Her eyebrow raised in defiance and her lips puckered in a pout .He would be lying if he said he didn't find that so attractive about her.She was everything he was looking for.Inquistive,curious,a little fisty and respectful.And her body made his blood boil.She had curves in all the right places and judging from the peach stripped tshirt she wore and the body hugging skirt she wore,she wasn't afraid to hide that fact.Goodness, he was feeling his insides boil for this woman unlike anything he had ever seen.Thats why she was perfect."Marry me"he said without a doubt in his mind.Her folded hands fell to her sides,her mouth stood agape as she stared at him wide-eyed and in shock."What?!"she exclaimed.He watched as she blurted out laughing."You're joking"she said in disbelief.He leaned back in his chair with folded arms to stare straight into her eyes.She gulped .There was no way that she could escape this now."And why would you want 'me' to marry you?you don't even know me."she stuttered looking around as if the word itself was an abomination."Because I want you" he answered firmly. She stared at him with shock.She opened her mouth to speak but no words came out.From her facial expressions,he knew that this was going to take a while.So to break the awkward silence, he raised his hand up to signal the waiter.At this point,they needed to the ice.The waiter took their orders and was back almost immediately with the light lunch he had ordered for her."You should eat up.Apart from coffee,they make a mean batch of sandwiches.They're really good,try it."he advised.She grimaced but obliged either way.He smiled at her blind obedience.He liked her naviety.He liked her childlike trust in him even though she didn't know him and his preposterous idea but she didn't react violently or cling to him because of his money upon knowing his dentity,just like a few other girls had tried to do when he had offered them the choice as well.He knew he needed it but he wasn't desperate to think that all girls would be compatible with him that's why he ran the search in the first place.After she had eaten a good portion of the sandwich which was good,she would need it ,if she was to keep up with him. He wanted a woman who was unashamed about eating and had a good appetite. She looked up from her half eaten sandwich.Clearing her throat,she finally spoke."Am sorry sir,I may not know why you would want to do this or why you would even think I was a good match to be your wife,but I would have to decline."she replied."I know that I may not have much or the fact of me never being in a relationship ..."she trailed off.His eyes widened in shock.He felt his smile grow wider much to her confusion."...but I can't marry you.You see,love will always be a big part of my life.I grew up in a not so loving home so I wouldn't want to repeat the same mistakes my parents did."she finished.His lips pursed in thought. "Would it help to say that I am attracted to you. You're beautiful"he responded.She felt her cheeks flush with excitement but quickly recomposed herself.He almost chuckled at her cute expression.keyword,Almost.He has never in his entire life being refused of anything except once.And that was a very long time ago.And he didn't handle rejection well. Of all the girls to reject him,it had to be her.All the girls he had interviewed had accepted on a whim,some had feigned innocence but he knew what they were really after.who wouldn't want to be his wife.Which made it even more confusing that she was refusing his offer.It was a great deal."I don't think I've fully explained what's in it for you?"he negoitated.He was grasping at straws now .He knew from the determined pout to her lips that she wasn't changing her mind.So with a deep frown,he resorted to the only way he knew would work.Playing nice so far hadn't gotten him anyway.So with the proud set of his shoulders and his folded arms,he stared her down and proceeded to talk to her with his really good business skills.its why he was known to be a ruthless billionaire and a very successful businessman."Alina Sanders ,a very hardworking young lady,25 years of age ,graduated top of her class,is ambitious and driven and is very passionate about working.She lives in an apartment 10 blocks away from the company on the 10th Avenue in Brooklyn. Lives with her retired mother who is currently in need of surgery for her reoccurring spinal cord injury. Is on bed rest and is constantly in and out of the hospital. "He recited smugly.He paused to raise an eyebrow at her."You are in a great deal of debt young lady.With your student loans and stacked up hospital bills,i don't think you will be able to last a week without a job.besides, it's been a while since you filled out your mum's prescription."he added."How dare you?"she sneered mortified.He eyed her from underneath his lashes ."Now,do you reconsider or do I continue?the choice is yours.Either way I win..."he said victoriously .She gulped.Her eyes darting around the room for someone to intervene. But it seems there was noone.

"You're such a vile person!"she spat out with as much venom as she could muster.She felt her eyes sting with tears and her throats constrict in discomfort.No way was she going to let him win.She wouldn't let him.So with a defiant stance,she stood from where she sat,glaring at him."This conversation is over,Mr.Micheal.Thank you for coffee "with that she walked out leaving a very confused micheal thinking through the points that may had lead to this very moment.Never in a million years had he seen this coming.No one had ever attempted to walk out on him or end the conversation until he was done. He pulled out his phone and dailed.His secretary picked up at the first ring."Doris,I want you to do something for me.Its about Alina"he spoke.* * * *On her brisk walk home, her mind reeled and her heart picked up a few more beats unable to calm the sensation that had washed through her with her encounter with her boss.

All eyes were on them now as they watched the scene unfold.She had heard many stories about mother in laws and how they were always opposed to their son's choice in women.Always.She'd seen them in all the telenovelas her mum had loved to watch before she got too Ill to watch anymore."Don't be worried about my mother "his words had played over and over as she watched the beautiful older woman walk over to them with her entourage of women that seemed judgmental from the looks and stares from around the room.Her thoughts drifted to the events of this evening..."I don't understand whey you have to plan this huge party .Its completely unnecessary."she had cried out as she sat in his office memorizing information about the important people that were going to be there at the party he was arranging for them. It sounded absurd at first.She had not seen the need to publicly announce their engagement when this was meant to be shortlived."I cannot wed without showing my family and people who

In the span of a few days, they had been so wrapped up in a media frenzy over the news of their engagement that she hadn't slept for more than 4 hours in the past week.it was always makeup and hair for events,parties, interviews and the whole shebang of planning a wedding which his mother had completely taken over,fortunately. How could she live this life?Even if it was for a short while she knew that all these would get too overwhelming for her and the only way she could think of to keep her grounded was the thought that her mother was going to be well again.News had gotten to her through Micheal that her surgery had gone well and that she was recovering well.Although she wouldn't be well enough to make the travel back for her wedding tomorrow.Her new iphone 14 that Micheal had gotten her,vibrated as she came out of the shower of her hotel.It was an unknown number.She slid the green button to answer. "Hello?"she asked curious.There was silence at the other end of the phone. "He

She watched as his eyes followed her movements. They were sitted across from each other on his private plane on their way to their honeymoon.The wedding had ended in a frenzy with his mother being emotional,his younger sister ignoring her and his father nodding in approval as they walked down the aisle hand-in -hand as husband and wife."You can stare at me all you want.I won't crack"He stated still focused on the opened pages in his hand."I want to go see my mother"she declared."We'll talk about that once we are back from our honeymoon.I do not want anything ruining my plans"He said nonchalantly as he flipped through the business magazine that had been brought to him as soon as he got seated.She grimaced."What plans?this is a marriage of convenience for you.And anything that you think you've "planned" would just be a wasted effort because there is no love between us.There never can be "she responded ending with a defiant pout on her lips that he found was getting difficult to res

Michael's povHe blinked once. Twice in surprise. Trying to understand what exactly she had said more out of disbelief rather than doubt."Mr Wheeler?"She called staring back at his dumbfounded look.She waved a hand in front of his face which caused him to wake up.He cleared his throat."Sorry...am just trying to wrap my head around this piece of information"he said clearing his throat in-between. She hung her head solemnly. "I understand.Its understandable if you choose to get yourself a new wife"She said sadly.He frowned."I never said that."He stated gruffly.Her head whipped up to stare at him in disbelief. He gulped down having difficulty swallowing ."Virgin or not.You are my lawfully wedded wife .And as the contract states you have to satisfy me in bed until an heir is sired"he stated stoically.Loosening his tie,he took a step towards her until he was sitting besides her on the couch.She moved to put distance between them but he wasn't having that.He pulled her towards h

ALINA'S POV "Micheal!"She cried out as he locked the door behind them.He stared back at her with a smug smile."So we won't be interrupted."He explained. She felt her heart rack heavily in her chest as she thought about the impending step they were going to take.It's not that she couldn't do it because she knew she eventually had to .It was in the contract.But that didn't make the decision easier.She knew what she was getting herself into when she signed the contract to save her mother and she had to go through with it."I've been waiting for this moment for a very long time"He said taking a menacing step forward as she took one backwards.His hungry gaze made her heartbeat quicken at the thought of what his mind had in store for her."Micheal...lets... talk...about this.I don't want to do this anymore"she panicked as the back of knees came up against the bed ."Too late"He growled before pushing her gently unto the bed.She felt the ruffles from her amazingly designed wedding gown

MICHEAL'S POV"Please call them back!"She cried."I can't,they're still in surgery.We'll know once she's done"He responded. "But I need to be there for her?!"She replied.He let out a frustrated breath."What is it you want,Alina?"He asked approaching her side of the bed."I want my mother to be okay"she sobbed."And she'll be alright, Just trust me"he comforted,stretching out his hand which she took."Please let me see her.Just once please "she begged once she was on her feet.His lips pursed in thought."You know I can't do that"He answered with a pained expression."Why not?!"She asked."Because that was the terms of the agreement.And so far you've been doing so well keeping your end of the bargain. "He explained sarcastically.She gave him a bitter smile taking a step back away from him."No more breaking the terms of the contract"He declared. She scoffed ."My mother is possibly dying and you're here talking about your stupid contract!"She said in a harsh tone.Her chest heave

ALINA'S POVShe had never imagined that she would be meeting his parents this early into their marriage.She thought she would be able to have more time to prepare before meeting them.It was nerve wracking.She never got the chance to find out what they thought of her during their wedding.She stepped back a little to gaze up at him."Do we really have to?"She asked hesitantly."Yes"he answered without hesitation. "If we really want to sell the story,we have to make my parents believe it.Its bad enough I shocked them with my wedding but I know they would want to meet their daughter-in-law,so I want to give them that respect."he explained.He put distance between them because he couldn't resist her for so long."So go upstairs and get ready"He told her."I don't think am ready to meet them yet "she confessed.His features softened.His lips pursed in thought."I don't think we have a choice anymore."he responded coldly."Please"she pleaded desperately."No and that's final."He said shut

MICHEAL'S POVIt took all his resolve not to react to the stinging on his cheek.Instead, he settled for straightening up the smile on his face."Mrs Sanders, hello to you too" He greeted."Forget the pleasantries, Micheal. You promised me that my daughter wouldn't be put in harm's way anymore!" She shrieked"I blame myself for trusting you!" She said aloud and walked past him to stand beside her bed. She took Alina's hand in hers and gave her a sad smile."My poor daughter is being neglected. I feel so sorry for her. "A muscle ticked in his cheek."Mum, that's not true. He's taking care of me" Alina defended weakly."You're too blinded to see it, Alina. The father of your child should be at your side at all times. Having lots of help from maids wouldn't just be enough. All the things that have happened are a testament to that fact." She complained.Micheal walked out ignoring Alina calling out to him. He couldn't be here anymore.As he stepped out of the room, he took one swing of

ALINA'S POVShe couldn't hold it in anymore. The suspense was eating away at her. Ever since last night, she had been unable to let the image of what she had seen go. There were lots of questions playing in her head. There was no justification for why Linda would be in her room that late at night. And the way she looked when she stood outside her door...She shuddered to think of what must have been going through her mind at the time.That's why she had resolved to trap her in the kitchen when Martha had gone out to get groceries. They were alone."Tell me Linda, what exactly were you doing in my room last night?" She blurted out.Sandra looked up, the corners of her lips twitched but she was calm. She stared up at her with widened eyes."What are you talking about ma'am?" She asked feigning surprise."I was in my bed all night," She said.Alina scoffed."You don't expect me to believe that" she responded.Sandra shrugged."I'm sorry ma'am, but I have no clue what you're talking about

MICHEAL'S POVWhen he awoke, he found her side of the bed empty. He sat up abruptly, panicked. He searched everywhere for her and padded down the stairs shirtless in search of her.He let out a sigh of relief when he found her hunched over on the couch taking a big bite of ice cream. A smile crept up on his face as he saw the guilt playing on her face."I was just craving some ice cream," She said and made a show to bring the lid over it to cover it up.He walked over to her chuckling as he sat beside her."It's okay." He told her."You're allowed to have some" He reassured her pulling the lid off to drop back onto the table. "Go on" He urgedShe eyed him skeptically. "Are you okay?" He asked when she dug in almost immediately.He watched the worry crease on her face.She shrugged her shoulders before taking a big bite."Are you sure?" He asked again.She gave him a forced smile and nodded in response. "I'm okay Micheal. You should go back to bed. You have work tomorrow" she said.

ALINA'S POVShe groaned as the light hit her eyes. "Madam wake up." She heard the voice call out to her.Groggily, she sat up straight."Martha, what are you doing here this early?" She said rubbing her eyes to try to clear her blurry vision. Her head throbbed gently. She groaned, raising her hand to reach for her head, memories of last night came flooding back.Micheal embarrassed her, their fight at the foot of the stairs, her crying her eyes out."Ma'am oh my goodness, your eyes are so puffy. Are you okay?" Martha asked rising to massage circles underneath her eyes with concern laced in her voice.She pulled her head away from Martha's grip."Martha, Martha, I'm fine " she reassured, holding onto her hands, she gave her a forced smile that didn't quite reach her eyes.Martha returned her smile with a nod of her head. She raised a hand to run it down her matted bed hair."Okay ma'am, I'll go downstairs to get your breakfast upstairs. Just freshen up."She said heading for the do

MICHEAL'S POV When he had left for work that morning he had been in a good mood. Because Alina had listened to him for once in their lives, she listened to him. Only to find her here, the very place that he had forbade her from coming. His hands fisted on the table. It took most of his willpower to stop himself from walking over to her and rattling her. What the hell was she thinking? That he would allow her to work in her condition. She was selfish if she thought that working here was going to be good for her. "Micheal?" He shook his head at the sound of his name being called. He cleared his throat. "Miss Alina Sanders, what is your purpose for coming here?" He asked. There was a pregnant pause. He watched her eyes dart around the room as she thought of an answer. She rubbed her palms across her trouser-clasped thigh. "Because I believe that I have what it takes to work here." He nodded. "And how did you think that you were going to be able to handle working here? If you

ALINA'S POV"Hello?""Hello is this Miss Alina Sanders?" the automated feminine voice sounded over the phone.She frowned."Yes, this is she" She responded."Okay, am calling about the position of managing director that you applied for earlier this month. You've been selected. I wanted to know when you would be available for the follow-up interview" the voice replied.Her eyes widened, and she clamped a hand on her opened mouth to keep from screaming."I'll be available anytime. When and where will the interview be held?" She asked."At the Empire State Building by 2 o'clock on Thursday. I'll send the details to your email" the female voice recited."Thank you, I'll be there. Thank you, thank you so much" she said excitedly and dropped the receiver back onto the telephone body."Yes!" She swung her fist triumphantly in the air."What are you excited about?"She jerked around to find Micheal behind her. He was dressed to the nines in his dark grey suit with his briefcase in hand.

MICHEAL'S POV"Answer me Linda" He asked.He saw the guilt evident on her face then tears rolled down her face."Sir am so sorry, I just added a little more sugar to her tea that's all I did. I didn't know that would cause any effect. I just wanted her tea sweetened " She cried, falling on her knees and rubbing her hands apologetically."Linda get up" Micheal ordered."Am so sorry ma'am" She said.Alina scoffed pulling her hand away from Linda's sweaty palms."No, you're not going to expect me to believe that" she mocked."Alina that's enough." He ordered."She's lying Micheal, can't you see? That's the lamest excuse that I've ever heard in my life. How can an extra teaspoon of sugar cause food poisoning?" She protested."Linda get up" Micheal ordered again. "Don't try that ever again." He warned.Alina threw her hands up in exasperation. "You can both go" He ordered.They hurried away."You're so frustrating!" Alina cried as soon as the door closed behind them."What?!" He asked."

ALINA'S POVIt's been a few days since their last fight. And it's been extremely quiet. Especially from the girl, Linda's end.She was in the dining room, eating her generous spread of breakfast that Martha had prepared with Linda's help to her surprise. Micheal was seated across from her enjoying the plate of waffles and scrambled eggs on his plate without so much as looking up at her."Is everything to your liking ma'am?" the voice broke through her internal musings.She looked up to see Linda staring back at her with a wide smile on her lips. From the corner of her eyes she could see a smirk playing on Micheal's lips as he sipped his coffee.She plastered on a fake smile and shook her head."No thank you" She answered.Linda nodded and turned to leave."Where's Martha? " she asked."She went to pick up some mail from the post office. Someone called her and said it was an emergency " Linda replied with a shrug to her shoulders.She felt her skin crawl at the wide smile on Linda's

MICHEAL'S POV The look of horror on Alina was enough to warn him about the decision he was about to make. But he stared at his mother's face and form the sad look on the strange woman behind Alina. He knew that she really was stranded and needed his help. Probably the both of them and according to the staff's that was currently employed for the sole purpose of making it easier. "Micheal please can I talk to you?" Alina asked stepping to the side past him with one disapproving frown. He followed suit. "What are you thinking?!" She snapped then cleared her throat lowering he voice to a hushed whisper. "Do you you even know what you're planning to do? That woman is dangerous!" She explained. His frown dissipated to a slight twitch to the corner of his lips. "You're just feeling apprehensive after what happened last time. But am sure it was a mistake. She is was just trying to help my mother" he argued. Her eyes widened in surprise. She stared at him like he had grown to heads.
