Chapter 3
Amelia POV
” What have I put my damn self into?” I asked myself as I walked uncomfortable in my parent’s sitting room. I just wasn’t getting myself after the last request my boss made, how would it be possible to get married to one I have never had a relationship with ever in my life just me getting to know his dad and that wasn’t a nice reason to get married to one I don’t know anything about.
” Why stressing yourself ?” My mom said as she came out of the kitchen with a plate of cookies in her hand dropping it on the little table in the sitting room.” You are still a young girl you can get married to anyone” As my mom said that I just looked at her giving her a long hiss as I went to sit on one of the sofas in the sitting room.
” Mom, are you just after the money or after your daughter’s life?” I asked with a frown and negative energy to her. I just wasn’t up for my mom’s unfriendly conversation cause I knew each conversation with her usually caused a huge fight between us.
” Am on both ” my mom came closer to me sitting down on the side of the sofa with a smirk .” When you get married to the billionaire son your dad’s treatment money would be cleared off and also you would be happy you were married off to a billionaire and not to one of those street Mafia?” my mom said to me with a smirk but immediately I stood up picking up my handbag that was close to where I was sitting.
” Mom I have the right to choose for myself this is my life and not yours,” I said to my mom looking at her as I stood up.” Mom, you could just sell off yourself to my boss as his new wife since his previous wife is already dead” I gave another long hiss in anger and tried walking out of the apartment until my mom’s voice struck me back from moving out of the house.
” You are crazy” my mom’s arrogant words held me back.
” Mom doesn’t let us repeat this conversation,” I said with anger within me as I turned around to face my mom eyeball to ball taking out the respect within myself.” Have already accepted a lot of trouble from you and this time am not giving you a chance to just come into my life and make it worse than it already is now” I said with anger within me as I looked at my mom who was just surprised with my reaction for just a statement she made. I just gave her a ride-eye look getting away from the apartment with anger within and tears dripping down from my eyes unexpectedly as I just walked through the lonely street.
I just stood in a spot and picked up my phone from my handbag and searched through my contact list to get the number of my boss since I just couldn’t watch my dad die cause of lack of money.
” Good day sir,” I said through my voice without a smirk on my face but a frown and a voice filled with anger.
” Good day,” he quickly gave a reply to me.
” Sir” he quickly interrupted me.
“What’s wrong with your voice?” Mr Smith asked as he cut my last statement short.
” It nothing sir,” I said smirking at my standing spot.
” Okay dear, so why are you calling?” Mr Smith asked with a cool and polite voice. Immediately he said that my heart beat so fast as I just took a deep breath in and out.
” It about your son” I quickly said letting out the fear.
” Can you come to my office like now” Mr Smith instructed before I ended the conversation immediately taking up a taxi.
All my mind and brain could just think about inside the taxi was how I would enjoy just accepting a marriage proposal cause of my sick dad. To me, I think it wasn’t so bad after all since am trying to help my sick dad.
” Here” I tapped on the taxi driver who almost drove past the company. Immediately he stopped and came out of the taxi giving him both a smile and cash cause I generally thought he deserved the two.
I passed through the security guard with my work identification card then had to go to the receptionist’s office to visit my boss but I was so safe cause am a worker there so less stress was there for me to visit my boss.
I took a deep breath before stretching my hands to give a knock” Knock…. Knock…”.
” Yeah come in” I heard immediately as I hit the door without two thoughts I opened the door and walked in giving him a slight greeting with Boeing my head slightly which he aesponded to me.
” So what’s wrong with you? You don’t look good?” Mr Smith asked politely as he pointed to one of the double chairs opposite his sitting position which I humbly accepted and said on.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
” Am good sir nothing to worry much about” I said with a smirk on my face just to help him write off the feeling out of his mind for that Time.
” So you mentioned something to me during the conversation we had earlier on the phone?” Mr Smith said to me dropping everything he was holding in his hands as he just looked at me eye ball to eye ball which kind of looked as if he wanted to bring out some words out of me in another kind of romantic manner.
” Sir I have” Mr Smith quickly interrupted my statement.
” Sorry I have to pick this up,” Mr. Smith said as he took up his phone and placed it straight to his ears.
” She’s here son” That particular statement made me kind of shocked at that point immediately making him look at Mr. Smith in a kind of a rude manner. It immediately seems as if he found out and just ended the call immediately telling me to continue with my words.
” Sir, I have agreed to accept” I got another interruption as a young-looking man stepped into the office. The man’s name was as familiar as the one I had seen earlier at the recereceptionist’sice.
” This my Son,” Mr Smith said as I turned around looking at the man who wore a suit and a fancy shoe that pretty perfectly went well with the suit. I just stood up from the seat and made him sit down which he accepted with a smile.
” His name is Bryan Smith and u” The guy stretched out his hands and I accepted a handshake with a smirk.
” Am Amelia” I replied gently with a smirk.
” So my Dad would have told you all about the contract clauses” Bryan quickly said to me as just looked at him with a confused face.
” What contract?” I asked immediately.
“It’s a contract marriage,” Bryan said.
” Ohh I understand” I just accepted the fate immediately not wanting the manner to go further.
” But sir” I interrupted Bryan as he tried saying down words to me.” Does this contract marriage come with years that it would surely change” I asked with a smile on my face this time.
“It’s a contract of death do you both path only death could change the marriage arrangement” Mr. Smith said also wearing the same frown on his face which I think looked serious at this point.
” So would there also be a relationship period before marriage” I asked once more to get clear reasons before I fully add myself into something crazy this time.
” That is something we don’t know” Mr Smith said .
” This a Deal with the Billionaire ” Bryan added.
