Dylan's POV:
I sat down inside my home office thinking about the possible solution to my current dilemma.
I know that grandfather was serious. He doesn't threaten anyone if he isn't going to do what he says.I knew that he would surely take away my hard earned inheritance from me if I refused to do the one simple thing he asked of me.
I don't have a girlfriend, I don't deal with girlfriends. How am I going to get someone that will cooperate with me in this?
My mind kept going around and around until I thought of Leilani Carter.
Leilani Carter.
She is beautiful and smart, she is the perfect woman that I can trust with this.
With her love for me I'm sure she wouldn't mind being my wife for a few years.
I grabbed my phone from my desk and dialed her number.
It rings twice but she didn't pick it up so I sent her a message instead.Miss Carter,
I'd like you to come to my house tonight.There is an importanLEILANI'S POV:I waited to see his reactions to my words but he just nodded his head."Margret." He called, a young girl in her early twenties walked in, an apron wrapped around her body. Margret was madame Solange's child, after the woman's death, Margret took her mother's place as Dylan's cook."You called me, Sir?" She asked and Dylan hummed."Get dinner ready, I'll be having dinner with Leilani. " He said, she looked up at me and smiled shyly. I can't believe that he hasn't eaten dinner by now. He always have his dinner before 8pm every night. Could it be that he was working and forgot the time?After Margret as left, I focused my attention to Dylan."We will go through the dos and donts while eating," he told me and I nodded my head.He continued typing on his phone until after a while, Margret came back to announce that the dinner is set.Dylan and I walked inside the dining room and sat down on the chair.

LEILANI'S POV: When I got back from making Dylan's coffee, his lawyer was already inside his office. I sat there opposite Dylan, my hands on my lap as I watch Dylan and David Sinclair, his lawyer and the head of his legal team. "So Miss Carter, before we can discuss anything with you I'd like you to sign this paper. " David Sinclair said and pushed a paper and a pen towards me. I grabbed the file from the table and quickly red the heading. A NDA. No disclosure agreement. I grabbed the pen and put my signature on the file. "Very well then." He said and took the file then kept it in his briefcase. He brought out another file from his briefcase and handed it over to Dylan. Dylan went through the file quickly and nodded his head then handed it back to me. 'A one year marriage contract

He finally said., My heart leaps with joy and I smiled bashfully.I am excited that he is impressed by what I did."Thank you."
