chapter 10
After dropping Maria off, I drove back to my office in the hope of doing some pending work. The past humiliation done by that girl is still playing in my mind, just like a ridiculous movie, which you never want to watch again.
Making a left turn, I parked my car in my private parking lot. I took my elevator to my office floor.
When I was about to enter my cabin, I had this weird sense that something was wrong or about to go wrong. I dismissed it and took my seat. I started my computer to do something productive work.
It was around 4 PM, and I was darn hungry. I wrapped up the files, about to stand up to find something to eat when I heard my secre
Chapter 11......................What the hell just happened?Am I sentenced to marry some random female in a month?No, that can never be possible!! My dad can't do this to me. I am the CEO of this company, and he threatened me to take 'MY' position.My train of thought came to a halt when Roman came in with an amused expression on his face. The amusement turned to a frown in a mere second when he saw my face.I threw my phone at the wall, ending its life as it shattered like a puzzle. I was furious, and I wanted to take this burden off my shoulders. Maybe a drink would calm me the hell down."Whoa man, What crawled up your butt and died," Roman said, raising his hands in surrender. "I heard your dad was here. Is he the reason your panties are in a twist?" I gave him me (don't fuck with me right now, look) to shut him up. He made himself comfy on my leather couch."Tell me, Alex. You know you can share anything with me. I'm t
Chapter 12 ............. Regan pov:- "Regan, come to my cabin this instant" was the words that came out of my boss Liam. When he left, that big rich pants looked a lot more frustrated than before. Without wasting any time, I made my way towards his cabin and knocked twice. "Come in" He calls out in a squeaky tone. I entered his cabin to find him against the window, looking out in the dark of night, his face half-covered in the shadow, making him scary. "Please have a seat," he told me. I took my seat in one of the red leather seats opposite his and folded my hand on my lap. "What is it, Liam? What did he say?" I ask him in a bratty tone, to which he just got a bit more frustrated? I saw his shoulders getting tensed, and I knew that very moment that the news, which he was about to give me is not very pleasing for me. "You are fired, Regan," he said. His word came out like he was in pain. My jaw dropped at
Chapter 13The next day I woke with the sound like someone was banging at my door or more like trying to break it. I stepped out of bed, making my way to my front door, trying to listen if the person who was there. Is it some bank people here to collect money? This early?When I found no sound of some talking on the other end, I opened the door to find a huge guy standing in front of me wearing all black. He looked like he came directly from the man in the black movie."Yes, what do you want, Mr. Men in black," I asked, opening my door a little more. I was not wearing much, just a huge shirt which came to my knees. But I right now don't give a dam on it.I could not say much when that hunky bunky guy stepped up and covered my face with a cloth. I tried to fight and not to breathe, but after a couple of seconds, my lungs started to give up, making it hard not to take a breath, but I did eventually.My body became tired, and my eyes started to drop, and in a
Chapter 14Alex pov:Today is when I'm going to execute my plan of getting my fake wife. I know it's not going to be easy to implement. However, it's now or never chance. It's not like I have another option or my parents left any loophole in their threat for me to manipulate. I want to keep my post as long as I'm alive.My bodyguard called me, telling me that the girl was in my basement office. She was now getting conscious. So I reviewed my plan for the last time after a bit of contemplating it. I made my way to my basement office, signaling my advocate to be there on my call. He will be the one to discuss the claws on my behalf. I make the contract to benefit me in all ways. I spent my whole night making that thing.The elevator stopped, and Roman entered, giving me a wink, but I could see the concern on his face well enough to know that he cared."You ready," he asked, giving me a concerned look. But I know he is more bothered about that girl than me.I saw his
Chapter15"Roman get her," to which he responded faster than ever. He approached her from the back and grabbed her by the shoulder, making her scream all the colorful words in one go."Leave me you fuck**g idiot or I will stab you with a butter knife.""You are so dead the moment I'm free!"Roman put her down in that chair and took hold of her until we were sure she could not hurt herself or us. She is still screaming, irritating me a lot, her voice killing my eardrum."Shut up!"I yelled while I banged my fist on the table, anger dripping in my every Word,"."Listen to me, And listen to me very well Regan Oxford. You are going to do what I'm telling you to do, or you will lose the one and the only thing you hold precious to your heart." I said. Making my voice sounds like a demon roar."Give me the papers Peter," I asked my advocate extending my hand to grab them."Yes, Sir, here they go. I made it the way you want it. On page three, I have
Chapter 16Regan pov:-"I'm not even sure if that really happened. I must be dreaming a very bad dream, and this is going to be over soon," I whisper out loud while walking back to my apartment. I just signed my life away, and everything is going to change. I am no different from all the prostitutes who sell their bodies on the side of the road every night because what I did today seems identical to them. I sold myself to a billionaire and agreed to be his wife for two billion dollars? Am I that worthless?NO, what the hell am I thinking? I have to do that, or he would have harmed Shawna. I can live up to that day. She is my best friend, my only sister, and the only person left on this planet that I can call my family after my real family's death.I reached my apartment, opening the door in the middle of the night, the sky filled with lighting above my head, and there was no light on the street "hell, this lock is stuck again," I tried and tried, but that freaking lock d
Chapter 17: -With the morning light, I knew my new life was knocking on my door with so much force it might break me down. It's scaring me to the core, and it's making it hard to keep my head up and leveled with society. Things that should not happen are playing in my brain, pros, and cons, for my previous decision lining up on my blank brain board, but the cons are more than the pros. I have to go past this negative thought as soon as possible because there is no turning back now. I'm doing this for Shaw and only for her.With my last breath of negativity out, I made my way to my shower, getting ready for this day to get down and get over it. I'm going in to meet his family today, and then I will go for my dress selection and makeover to look like a lady from a good background. I haven't received a proper meal in days, and now it's showing its effect
Chapter 18Regan pov: -Yeah, let's go. Why not! I stood up with my fake enthusiasm and saw his smirk drop like a bomb.Haha, take that richly bit*h."Let's go then," he said, taking my hand into his, kissing my knuckle, making me simile for the heck of the show. But on the inside, I was gagging. 'let's move before I throw all excellent food on your face. I muttered under my breath.I might be incorrect if I say this house is big. Because it's freaking mention!! There were endless rooms, all having their separate bathrooms and walk-in wardrobe, these people were filthy rich, And here I am, who is struggling to put her one-time meal.
