Daisy POV :When Ben went inside the cemetery, my eyes followed him. He started talking to his Dad as if he was sitting there. That scene melted my heart and I thought about my Dad for a second. I have got the best Dad in the world. He is a bit protective that's it, for which I used to complain to him. But whatever my Dad told me was true. I should have listened to him in the first place.Even though I was looking at Ben, my thoughts were wandering around Dad. Then I saw him looking in my direction and I averted my eyes. When he planned to drop me back home, I started to get worried as his Uncle and family were waiting for an opportunity to get me alone. I am not that prepared for their questioning, so I decided to stay at the office with Ben. Even though Ben gave reasons to keep me out of his office, I didn't mind it and went with him to the office.Then we reached an enormous building, and we stepped inside. There the receptionist was busy looking at me with surprising eyes while say
Benjamin POV :I could not believe my eyes when I looked at the design on the laptop. It was remarkable, and it was done by Daisy. I was after this project the whole day and even hired the best designers to deliver the perfect results. But, no one could completely satisfy me, and this made me frustrated. Finally, when I returned to my cabin, I was getting irked by seeing Daisy taking a nap on the sofa. If she wanted to sleep, then she should have gone home. That's what I thought. But, then my eyes got glued to her design. I couldn't help, but hug her as it made my day. And I have praised her for her work. She does not even have a degree, but she got this as a natural talent, which is rare to find. So the businessman in me woke up and instantly offered her a job. I wanted everything best in the field, in my business, and I know if anybody gets to know her talent, they will try to get her in their business. I could not believe that her family did not support her, maybe she didn't want
Daisy's POV :So Mr Benjamin Harrison is not that bad at all. Mom came along with dinner for me and was served in the bed itself. She is the sweetest person in this mansion. I saw Ben going out to have dinner. After some time he came back, instead of saying anything I saw him taking my fluffy bed and setting a new sheet on it. Hm...I could sense a cleaner freak here. I have slept on that bed only for a day...As I was resting on his bed, I saw him twisting and turning. The bed was so small that it was perfect for me, but not enough for him. I moved my leg and it felt better after resting for some time. I know that if he sleeps there, he can't rest well. So I sat on the bed and then said to Ben, "I think my leg is doing just fine now. Why don't you take the bed? "I saw him looking at me in confusion. Before he said something there was a knock on the door."Ben... Daisy... it's me, Amanda..."As we heard the voice, Ben stood up folded the bed at a fast pace and kept behind the sofa. Th
Benjamin's POV:Even though I think Daisy could act according to the drama, sometimes she acts too innocent. Otherwise, she would never invite Aunt and Amanda inside. I know, she just doesn't want to act rude, but these scheming people can be very tricky. I was sure that they came to get some clue about my relationship with Daisy. They must have guessed that a full-time businessman like me, won't have time to pursue a girl or even for marriage. So they are here to find the clues. And they got it too. They didn't even forget to bring Jayda in between our conversations. And when her name was mentioned, I saw Daisy looking at my face out of curiosity. But I never looked at her. She is only my contracted wife, so she doesn't need to know all my things. And before aunt left, they took away my only option to sleep. Damn it...Daisy is injured so she should rest well. And when Daisy suggested sharing a bed with her, I was in a dilemma. After all, that was the only option left. The sofa won't
Benjamin's POV : After finishing important tasks I left the office early with Jax. Yes, I just informed Melvin about my going out, but not the details of course. I was so confused about what I should give her. I have already bought enough things for her. And I don't know her taste either. When I asked Neena, my secretary about what kind of gifts girls like the most… she gave an answer like 'anything expensive, or limited edition things. It could be anything. The costlier it is, the better…' Hm… Maybe, I should try something else. If Daisy belongs to the category of girls Neena mentioned, then she won't like what I am going to give her. The thing I noticed was that she loved our garden. So, I bought a fresh bouquet of roses for her and went back home. But, as I was going inside, I heard her laugh along with the person who irritates me the most, Ryker. He is my maternal cousin. I don't know what's exactly the problem between us. Since childhood, we have been competing with each other.
Daisy's POV : After the encounter with Amanda, I was confused. Who is this Jayda?? And what is her relationship with Ben?? Does it matter to me?? No and we had a deal that we won't dig into each other's past. But still, the way Amanda said about Jayda, I think she had an important role in Ben's life. Can it be that they were lovers?? I don't know… My thinking process was disturbed by a small coughing sound. And when I turned around a tall handsome man stood in front of me. I got flustered a little as I hadn't recognised his presence all this time, and he was standing near me. "Hey, Is Aunt Bella home??" He asked politely. I know Benjamin's mother's name is Isabella. So it must be her. "Oh, yes. Please have a seat. I will inform her." I tried to wake up. But he gestured me to sit down, "No need, Miss. I am not a stranger here. By the way, who are you??..." He asked. Before I could say something, I heard Mom from behind. "Ryker, what a pleasant surprise… " and they hugged e
Benjamin's POV : I haven't seen Daisy since she left the room out of anger. Melvin called me as I had left the office just like that. Hm… Better I won't share anything with him. He would even laugh if he knew that she threw away the flowers I bought for her. Who does she think she is?? She is just a mere employee of mine. And now she dares to raise her voice at me?? She should know who is the boss here… How dare she talk to me like that?? What she doesn't know is, that it's not her choice where she should join. For a year, I am the one who is going to decide her life. After changing clothes, I went out for the dinner we planned with the Alchemy group. It took almost three hours to settle things with them. And Melvin also joined me. Melvin didn't ask anything as he could sense my mood off. I had a few drinks to ease my mind. After the party, when we were coming back home, suddenly he asked. "What is wrong?? I noticed that your mood was a little off today. As we won a big project,
Daisy's POV : After thinking for a long time I came to this decision. Even though he acts rudely to me, I have to stick to my word. I have to act as Ben's wife for a year. It would be better if I could work to have a social life as a real me than acting as his wife for twenty-four hours. I need to be myself at that time, as the real Daisy Donovan. And I don't need any favours of being his wife as well. I am sure if I work there as his wife, people around me might pamper me to get their things done. And it might even affect my peace of mind. In his company, only Neena and Melvin know about me. So covering my identity won't be an issue. I thought I would talk with him when he comes back… Then I changed my plan as he might haven't gotten over our last argument. Perhaps, I can tell him tomorrow. I was reading a book when I heard him open the door. I felt his scrutinizing gazes on me. But, somehow I don't want to face him. As soon as he went to take a bath, I planned to go to sleep. But,
Ben's POV :It was a busy day at the office. And when I finally had time for lunch, I remembered Daisy. She treated my injured hand and even fed me last night. I'm sure she's eating at the cafeteria. And I always order food from the city's five-star hotels. So I decided to place an order for her as well. Melvin texted her even though he teased me. However, as expected, she preferred to eat in the cafeteria. But when Melvin saw Daisy with a few of our employees, particularly Edwin, coming out of a restaurant, I became irritated. If she wanted to go out to eat with them, she should have told Melvin. I was enraged that she had lied. In that mood I even skipped my lunch.Soon I got her message, but I was obviously in a bad mood. But when she explained why she texted, I felt a little better. At the very least, she wasn't concealing the fact that she had gone out with them. But why is Edwin putting in so much effort on her? I've known him for several years. He is not a player. And I haven't
Daisy's POV : I was feeling proud when Ben defended me as Amanda tried to use the Jayda card to make me feel bad. I was pleased that his words made her shut her mouth. I knew Grandpa had something important to say. But his attention was drawn to Ben's injury, and he warned him to be more careful in the future. And what he said about our "future children" made me almost choke on the food I was eating. Ben handed me a glass of water, which I quickly drank. Even though Ben said we needed time, I knew Grandpa was eager for a great-grandchild. But he didn't realise it would never happen through me. The main topic of discussion was Amanda's engagement. It is scheduled in two weeks. But what tipped me off was Grandpa's desire to throw a party for us. Especially to introduce me to family members. Grandpa had already decided on it, despite Ben's opposition. He also suggested that I invite my family to help me solve the problems. Uncle Tom and Aunt Amelia took advantage of the situation and ca
Ben's POV : I became enraged when Daisy told me she was being pursued by thugs. I was angry not only with her, but also with myself because I was partially to blame. She wouldn't have left if I hadn't gone with Jayda or returned in time. I wanted to know who dared to look at my wife... even though she is a contractual wife, she is Mrs Harrison. And someone tried to offend her. I can't think about the rest if Edwin hadn't arrived on time. Those who took part in this dangerous game needed to be compensated. And because this is such a personal matter for me, I wanted to make them pay for it myself. I'm familiar with the location she mentioned, and when I went there, three of them were present. They were on high alert as I stepped outside. But I haven't given them the opportunity to flee or fight back. And I used my fighting abilities. When they were almost dead meat, I told them that this was their reward for pursuing my wife. At the time, I felt as if I meant every word of it. Daisy
Daisy's POV : I sigh heavily once he's gone. Although he made me stay home today as punishment, I didn't mind because I had planned to take the day off due to my illness. I attempted to stop him so that I could tell him that Edwin was the person who saved me last night. I gulped instead of responding when he gave me that doubtful look. I have trouble explaining why to him. Why has his proximity to me had such a strong impact on me? The devil, I need to calm down. His mother soon arrived with brunch. and placed the bowl of oatmeal in my hands while sitting next to me. I was perplexed as I stared at her. "Daisy, eat this. It is light and nutritious. When you have a fever, it helps. I've also called the doctor." How do you know I'm unwell, though? Even Ben was unaware that I had a temperature. ...or did he? Is it the reason he advised me to stay in? "Ben informed me, of course. He had told me to look after you. Even though he won't express it out loud, he is a really caring perso
Ben's POV : Daisy…!! She was very surprised by my dinner plan and she loved the view from there. As she talked about her capacity with alcohol, I felt like she was opening up to me. And I would like to know more about her. After all, we are going to spend a year together. If we can have a friendly relationship, that's the best. I was in thought, that's when she called me. Before any of us could respond, Jayda came in. And she didn't leave her usual style even when I introduced Daisy as my wife. Daisy was polite, whereas Jayda completely ignored her and concentrated on me only. She even doubted our marriage and wasn't ready to accept it was real. Yes, that's what Jayda is… She is a very persistent and adamant character. But deep down, all she does is for love. She is my childhood friend and I know her well. I was sure that Amanda would inform Jayda of everything soon and even expected her entry back into my life soon. But, I didn't foresee her appearing here out of the blue. And some
Daisy's POV : I was so delighted to drive the limited edition Ferrari baby. He was so good in my arms. And I sure made an impression on Ben, as he thought I couldn't drive sports cars well. But the day was meant for surprises for me. He took me to the famous mall in town and even stayed with me the whole time. Of course, he was busy on his phone now and then. But, he didn't leave me there alone. I know this shopping was not only because he promised me, but also a publicity stunt. As we were in the crowd and people were gawking at us, he would keep me close or hold my hands. So I went with the flow. After trying the gown, I had to check with him. After all, he is the one paying for it and he must be the one to make sure that the gown suits whatever event is on his mind. He insisted on not changing the dress, so I know he was taking me to some event. I wanted to know more information about it, as I don't know whom I will meet there. I just want to be prepared. But, he wasn't giving an
Ben's POV : I was feeling refreshed today and when Neena informed me that Stella was there to see me, I knew she must have taken the trainees including Daisy to meet me. I am ready to enjoy her awkwardness, whereas Stella came in alone first. She tried her small flirtish talks, but as I have kept a straight face she became professional just like that and invited them in. Daisy came in last in a beautiful dress which showed off her curves well. She didn't raise her head until she came to the front. Her cheeks were a little flushed when she introduced herself. Somewhere I know I am going to enjoy this a lot. But the next thing that happened made me disturbed. Her stupid heels faltered again and she fell into the arms of Edwin, who came to discuss some issue in his department. He is a highly professional and loyal person that has stayed with me from the time I started this company. And I personally respected him as well. Unlike the other employees, he had the right to talk about anythin
