Chapter twenty one

I looked at my father utterly shocked by his reaction. What was wrong with him? He was usually very composed, and now all his self-control was gone. " Dad, what is going on here?" I asked, while my mother watched him with an expression similar to mine." How could you do this? Out of all women, you had to choose her?" He looked at me, and to say I was shocked is like to say nothing. " I am trying to understand the reason for this outburst, but I really can't," I replied, running my hand through my hair. This conversation was getting nowhere, but now I had to know why my father acted like this. My mother stood up, and approached her husband, putting her hand on his arm. " Honey, calm down and tell us what is wrong with this girl. You can see that we are both clueless." My father remained silent for a while, and let out a deep breath. " I am sorry," he mumbled sitting back on his chair. My mother left us for a moment and returned with two glasses of whiskey in her hands. She pas

Chapter twenty two

Millie's POV I woke up, feeling refreshed, and filled with newfound energy. This day could be the start of my brighter future since the past weeks were really gloomy. I took a quick shower and helped myself with breakfast. A Bowl of cereal would do since I was too excited to feel hungry. But I had to eat something. Passing out during the interview would look really unprofessional. I had two hours before my first meeting, which I spent on choosing my outfit and putting make-up on. Even if that was absorbing me completely, there was still a tiny room for thinking about my conversation with Alex. I was going to get married to a man I barely knew. The details were not set yet, but it was enough to send shivers down my spine. It was craziness, but did I have much to lose? I pushed those stubborn thoughts aside. There was nothing more important than my meeting right now. I would have to catch a taxi, to be there on time but I did not mind. " Millie, wait," I have heard my

Chapter twenty three

Alexander's POV One look allowed me to figure out that Millie's day did not go well. When I came back home, she was sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee that was probably cold for hours. " How was your interview?" I asked, knowing well it was not the best question right now. " Great," Millie mumbled, without looking at me. Her gloomy expression did not change a bit. " So bad, huh?" I asked again, sitting in front of her. I was not helping much, but I could not let her sit all alone. Millie finally raised her eyes on me. " Am I that bad?" She gave me a questioning look. I was not sure what to say at this moment. I do my best to show empathy, but consoling people is not my thing. " It was only the first try. You cannot give up after the first attempt. I am sure you will find the right work in no time." " You think so? Because I am not so sure about that," Millie took a sip of her coffee and scrunched her nose. " Do you want the fresh one?" I aske

Chapter twenty four

Aleksander's POV Mark Green looked at me stunned, struggling to breathe, but I had no mercy for this man at all. He and Millie's family showed zero mercy to the woman who would soon be my wife. This thought was still spinning in my mind, but now I had to focus on the problem. " Is there a problem?" I asked innocently, at the same time giving him a cold stare. " Well, in fact, there is. Miss Brown is no longer working for the company." He said, fixing his tie, which seemed to be choking him. " Well, that complicates everything," I murmured, watching him sweat. It looked like they were indeed desperate to make a deal with us, and I was keen on using it to squeeze him like a lemon. Visualising Millie, who was sitting on the bench, completely devastated, made this much easier for me. " Is there nothing else we can do to prove trustworthy?" Green was stubborn, but so was I. " You see, I would love to trust you just like that, but is it how the businessmen act?" My tone was calm but

Chapter twenty-five

Millie's POV I was preparing the dinner when my phone rang. Since my last interview was such a disaster, I was hoping for another chance to prove myself and finally get a job. My excitement died after one glance at the screen. My whole body went numb when I saw my father's name on the screen. What the hell did he want? My fingers were trembling, making me struggle to accept the call. " Hello," I mumbled in a weak voice. " Millie, I am so glad you picked up," I heard on the other side. " And why is that?" I asked, narrowing my brows. " Well, that is not something I would like to discuss over the phone. Can we meet?" My father said with hesitation but also hope in his voice. " Why do you want to meet?" I asked, wondering if there was anything else they could want from me. No, they took everything. There was no reason why they would need to see me again. " Do you always have to be so stubborn? Just meet me, and I promise you won't regret it." My father said,

Chapter twenty six

Millie's POV I was laughing so hard my stomach hurt. They could not be serious. And that part about a family. We were no family. At least, I was not part of it. Not since they kicked me out of my workplace and home. I took a few calming breaths. That was fun. " If that was a reason why you called me, Father, I think we are done here. But thank you for the entertainment," I said, looking back at Deborah. She was still on the sofa, clenching her fists. I could hear the nasty thoughts forming in her mind, but she only tied her lips in a thin line. " Millie, we are serious," my father spoke calmly. " We have a chance for a huge contract, but only if you will be in charge. The customer does not want to work with anyone except you." I gave them a stern look. Finally, someone spilled the beans. " So let's get it straight. You do not care about me, but you need me to get the deal?" My voice was cold and sharp, but I could not care less. " They have heard about your succes

Chapter twenty-seven

Alexander's POV This woman will never stop to surprise me. I would be punching the walls if someone would try to pull such a stunt on me. Brown's family had no limits when it came to being heartless. Well, too bad for them. It looks like I have to squeeze them a bit more. " When are you going to sign the contract then?" I asked casually, playing with my cup. Millie shrugged her arms again. I have noticed it was her reaction when she had no control over the situation. " Tomorrow." " Make sure you read it properly," I said, standing up. Millie gave me a side-eye. My warning was not necessary. She knew what her family was capable of. " If you do not have plans for tomorrow evening, I would like to introduce you to my family," I added, washing the dishes, and Millie gasped. " Seriously? Already?" She whispered. " Well, I think it is about time if we are going to get married." I turned around and noticed how pale she got. " Are you okay?" " Yeah, sure. I

Chapter twenty-eight

Third POV " How is it possible for her to crawl back again?" Sandra looked at her mother. A few hours ago, Deborah returned from a meeting with her husband and Millicent. She was still shaken by how her husband acted during this time. The rage was boiling in Deborah's veins and flashing in her eyes. " I know. He dared to raise his voice at me because of her, but I will make him pay for that." The older woman replied, pacing around the room. Sandra only nodded. Her mother would never accept any form of humiliation. " How much do we need to do to get rid of her for good? I took her man, her place and her work," Sandra slammed her hand on the desk, anger burning in her eyes. " Your father needs her. He does not want her here as much as I do. But there is a contract..." Deborah plopped into a chair, massaging her temple. " Fu*k the contract. Why is this so important? And please do not call this man my father." Sandra said, pacing around her room. " Enough!" Deborah repl

Chapter twenty-nine

Millie's POV I was exhausted when I arrived at my father's home. I could not call it my family home for a while since the people living inside did not deserve that title. But signing the contract was not the only reason I could not sleep at night, twisting in my bed. Alex asked me to meet his parents. Today. It was as if this day was not stressful enough. I was torn between thinking about what my family prepared for me and wondering how to dress for tonight. Of course, I wished them to like me, for mine and Alex's sake. We have created enough mess already. I was the one to be mostly blamed for that, but sharing the quilt was a much better option. I could not stop thinking what I would say when they asked about the wedding. Did Alex tell them it was a marriage with an expiry date? I highly doubted this. I will worry about this later. The door to the mansion was wide open when I arrived. " What a gesture," I thought to myself. The inside was empty, but I did no

Chapter thirty

Alexander's POV When we entered the Ben's Burgers, Millie tensed even though she had tried to hide it. I took a deep breath, enjoying the smell already imprinted on my mind. This place smelled like childhood. I could not count the evenings we have spent here with my parents. On those occasions, they were nothing like business people the whole country knew. Here, no one cared about your status as long as you managed to behave at the table. I quickly scanned the room, and a smile curled on my lips. My parents were sitting in our usual spot, already enjoying their drinks. My smile widened when I noticed that both of them understood the assignment. My father wore a simple black shirt and jeans, while my mother chose a blue flower dress. " There they are," I said, taking Millie's hand. She offered me a shy smile while I navigated through the crowded restaurant. " Right on time." My father stood up from his seat as soon as he noticed us. He gave Millie a wink while my moth
