Chapter 4: The pain, hurt, guilt, regrets.

Summer~~~

"Marry me" I spurted out standing in front of the window with my hands in my pocket acting like I was looking outside but the truth is am just as nervous and confused as them but at the same time desperate.

"What? Is this some kind of proposal or something" Charles asked totally confused by my request.

I moved away from the window back to the seat with my leg crossed.

"Am serious, Mr Eden. In exchange to keep your secret you must marry me and support me with your shares in Shrap broadcasting corporation."

"That is my offer, it is up to you whether you it take or not"

"Mmmh if what you said is true, then that means I hide that am straight and not a gay but then you are asking me to reveal to the public that am not gay by marrying you?" 

"That is where you are wrong, we could do a silent wedding. People doesn't have to know about it, you just marry me, I will go living in your house silently" 

"Wait, live in my house? You are thinking of getting involved with my life?" He asked dumbstruck.

"Of course, have you ever heard of a bride living outside her husband's house?" I teased and winked at him.

"Ah" He sighed and bowed his head.

"Mr Eden, you don't have to listen to this anymore" Miss Vivian said and faced me "go ahead and try it but you should also know that this will affect your family business too and also people are going to talk about it for a few days then forget about it" Miss Vivian speculated making me laugh.

"You aren't smart as you seem" I said.

"What?"

"Actually I have nothing to lose, there are many station looking for a reporter like me, if Shrap broadcasting stations falls then I will go to another broadcasting station. And people aren't going to talk about it for a few days"

"Mr Charles Eden has always been on top of the news no matter what he does, and if I release what I have with me. It will have a huge impact on your company, you might be able to get away with your past records but your company will take a few months or maybe a year before it rises again."

"I still have nothing to lose, the article will make me popular and successful but instead I came to you directly, that is because am desperate. So you choose, you either get married to me and support me with your shares in Shrap's or I release this" I said touching the photos with me and the file.

"I still have nothing to lose" I smiled while Vivian grinned her teeth together.

"Miss Shrap" Charles finally called and raised his head.

"What, Mr Eden?"

"Give us sometime to think, we will get back to you soon" he said and his secretary looked at him shocked and angry.

'What is her problem?' I thought.

"Okay, I will be waiting for you to contact me but I won't wait for long. Am impatient and desperate, till I see you" I picked the files and the pictures and left them.

I ran to the company restroom as soon as I left his office.

"Phew, you did well Summer. Wow, you are a genius Summer" I smiled and flinched my hair.

Now, Dora let see who will win this game.

I will make sure to have Shrap broadcasting corporation and also be Charles Eden's wife.

****************

"What do you mean by we will get back to her?" 

"Don't tell me, you are thinking on agreeing to her stupid deal" Vivian questioned.

"What choice do I have? You heard what she said, right?"

"What? You must be joking. There is no way you are marrying that girl" Vivian shouted.     

Bam! 

 

Charles slammed his hands on the table and made her flinch out of fear.

He might be gentle but he sure has his dark sides.

"If you had done your job well then she won't have anything on me. You know how much I tried to keep this secret from the world, I had to lied that am interested in guys even though it disgusted me."

"Why? Because I don't want to make the same mistakes I made then but...." He stopped and fold his hand to a fist, pain visible in his eyes, guilt, hurts, regrets all showing, Vivian knows she crossed the line, she hates herself for it.

She doesn't like hurting him.

He shoved the pain, hurt, regrets and guilt away with an intimate smile.

"Let just forget about it, you shouldn't worry too much. Am not going to marry her" He said and Vivian faked a smile, half assured.

"I want you to find me everything you can, her weakness and her secret, things we can use against her" he requested.

"I will do just that, but are you alright?" She asked with care.

"What? Why?"

"You know before she came" 

"Ah, that is weird. I totally forgot and I don't feel disturbed" Charles uttered looking around weirdly.

"Why is that?"

"Why is what?" Vivian questioned.

"Don't worry, I think am fine. You can get back to your work" He said dismissing her.

"Ok" she mouthed sadly and left.

Charles wondered what was wrong, something changed in his body, he was aroused before and he knew the risk for not getting someone to fvck before he is fully lost but now he feels nothing and that happened because of miss Shrap that was here.

Weird? Is it because she was interesting? Well he won't decline it.

He likes her personality, not even afraid of him. But yet still dislike her.

She brings up the past he wants to forget, she brings up what he regrets the most.

His past, even though it was his past. It still keep tormenting him, every single day, every single night.

Because he wanted to escape from his past, he had to lie about him being a gay even when he is absolutely into woman.

"Miss Shrap" he called and smirked.
