Convince

"How long is the deadline?" Ella asked shivering.

"From now until tomorrow morning but you should have the money as soon as possible."

In such a short time, where did she make thirty thousand dollars? She was recently fired by Mr.'s wife. John, so she couldn't get a salary.

The female doctor looked at Ella's expression, she showed sympathy. "I'm sorry I can't help you. You can borrow money from a friend or a bank."

Ella nodded to the female doctor and walked out of the hospital campus, sitting down on a stone bench, thinking.

Loan?

Ella doesn't have many friends. Most of them are social network friends, she doesn't have a trusted friend who can lend her money.

Wait, Ella suddenly remembered she had a best friend named Suzy. But Suzy's family is not well off. She also has to work hard to earn money. She doesn't have enough money to lend Ella.

As for the bank, they will ask what Ella does. If she says she's quit her job and is unemployed, will the bank give her a loan?

Ella feels tired. She couldn't think of any way to solve the problem at hand. Her father's life is in her hands. What is she supposed to do?

Suddenly, a man's voice rang in Ella's ear. "I can help you."

Ella was startled, turning to look at the man in the hospital uniform from earlier. Since when is he sitting here? She frowned, staring at the man. He is so handsome. The lines on his face were strangely perfect. If he wasn't dressed in a hospital gown, Ella thought he might be an executive or some billionaire among the nobility.

"I'll give you a million dollars to pay for your father's surgery." The man said, not sounding joking.

What? A million dollars? Ella didn't mishear, did she? If she didn't mishear, he was joking.

"Why? I don't know you." Ella scowled. It was clear that she had never met this man in her life. There's no reason for him to give her a million dollars. This is not a small amount.

Could it be... he's crazy?

The man continued. "Yes. We don't know each other, but we need each other." His words were unclear, causing Ella to misunderstand.

Oh my god, what is he saying? Ella shivered in fear. Is he trying to flirt with her? Why does she always meet perverts everywhere she goes?

Ella stood up and was about to leave when a hand grabbed her. She panicked, talking nonstop. "Let go. You lustful. You pervert. You're grouchy. If you don't let go, I'll scream."

What? Metamorphosis? Sam So? The man gasped, in disbelief. Ella's imagination is so rich. He had just grabbed her wrist, he hadn't even done anything yet. Yet she said he was the one who molested her.

Seeing many people looking in their direction, he let go of Ella's hand and spoke immediately for fear of her running away.

"Hey girl, can you calm down and listen to me?"

Ella saw the serious look on the man's face, she calmed down and sat down in her chair, waiting to hear what he had to say.

"You need money and I need a wife. Let's cooperate." The man's voice was calm.

Ella was amazed. It was the first time she heard such words. If he's not a pervert, he's definitely a... mental patient. Oh no, he's crazy.

Ella leaves.

The man's voice echoed behind Ella causing her feet to slow down.

"Think again. Don't you want to save your father?"

Ella turned her head and asked. "How can I believe you?"

Before he could speak, another man approached. This person wore a polite gray suit, his face was a little younger than his.

The man in the gray suit gave him a fancy suit and said. "General manager, your clothes are already dry."

General manager? Ella opened her mouth in surprise. She stared blankly at him. Not a madman, not a pervert, but a general manager.

"Please wait a moment." He said and went to the bathroom.

Ella waited in the chair with the man in the gray suit. she asked. "Is that person really the general manager?"

The man in the gray suit was stunned for a moment before realizing who Ella was referring to. He nodded. "Yes. He is the general manager of D&A company. Today he went to the hospital to visit a friend, unfortunately, a boy spilled food on him. I told him to throw the clothes but he didn't agree. He really liked this suit, so he told me to wash it thoroughly. While I asked the staff to wash it, he only temporarily wore the patient's clothes in the hospital."

Therefore, it is. Ella understood. She wrongly blamed him.

The man came out of the toilet. He's even more handsome in his elegant suit.

Ella shook her head, dispelling the thoughts in her mind. 'How can you look at him with lustful eyes? You're just as greedy as he is.'

Ella felt ashamed of what happened, she lowered her head.

"You don't believe me, do you? You thought I was a psycho just now?" The man seemed to see through Ella's thoughts.

Embarrassed, she dared not raise her head.

"What I say is true. I'm David Anthony. This is my business card." The man hands Ella a business card.

She took it and asked. "Why do you want to help me?"

David said. "Actually, my parents and grandfather urged me to get married, but I'm very busy and just want to focus on my career. My mother said that if I don't have a girlfriend or don't get married, she will decide on her future wife for herself. me and will force me to marry someone I don't love. That's why I asked you to pretend to be my wife. We will sign a marriage contract for three years. After three years, you will be free."

Ella listened silently and then she wondered. "So after three years, your mother asked, what would you answer?"

"I would say that we are not compatible so we should divorce. In those three years, maybe I will find my true love so you don't have to worry about that." David shrugged.

"But why me and not someone else?" Ella tilted her head slightly.

"You're having a hard time with money, aren't you? Just now I heard the doctor say you need money to pay for your father's surgery. If I help you unconditionally, you won't agree. So I came up with this idea." David spoke again, explaining in detail to Ella.

"That's called cheating. How can I work with you to deceive your family?" Ella turned and got ready to leave.

David said hastily. "We work for each other's sake. You need money, I need someone to introduce to my family. Both parties are happy, why is it a lie? This specialty is only the three of us know. Me, you and Key - my assistant."

The man in the gray vest is David's assistant - Key.
