" A-Are y-you, by any chance, Christian Brown?? " Cally, who I assumed to have passed out because of the looks of this man, Finally spoke up and I looked at her in confusion"Oh, Finally. Your friend at least possesses some brain. " He mocked, pulling even a ruder face with the dripping pride of his name that made me snort once again."As in, THE CHRISTIAN BROWN?? " Cally asked again, pulling 'The' a little longer to conform and he glared at her before he answered." Do you need a fucking birth certificate?? " He barked in annoyance at her repetitive questions while I was focused on Cally for some moments who gasped at his confirmation.She's the kind of person who can make people's ears bleed with her curses if they ever tried to mess with her or even me. But today, she was just staring at this rude person with her jaws dropped and swooning over his looks.Well, fighting is another thing. We can't ignore a handsome man in any situation. So it was usual. What was not usual is, her not arguing despite his looks.I stared at her and her behaviour. Then, it rang a bell in my head and I whipped my head towards the man in front of me as the realisation washed over me.Christian Brown. Son of Matthew Brown and the sole heir of his business. They own the majority of the hotels and restaurants in the city. I've also seen his photo once in a magazine about young billionaires.Wait!! Did I just get myself into a fight with some billionaire??No, you have just planned your murder in a perfect way. My subconscious stated.Well, it wouldn't be that bad if I'll be getting a chance to get killed by a handsome billionaire.Oh God, Get a grip Jenni!!I looked up at the man whose lips were now twitched upwards in an arrogant smirk. My inner turmoil was probably written all over my face. " You better check the person before you start talking shit from next time. " The man spoke up, pulling me out of my thoughts and I stared at him with disbelief while he turned to get back in his car and I stared at him in daze before shouting once again.Or you should say, inviting him to come and destroy me."What about this??" I ran behind him and stood between his Oh-So-Luxurious car and him while pointing towards my shirt with one hand and raising my books in the other."About what, again?? " He cocked an amused brow looking at my shirt and I frowned.What the fuck is so amusing about it??I followed his gaze and looked down to realise that I was pointing at my chest.Wow!! Way to embarrass yourself Jenni!!I wanted to just throw myself in front of one of the cars running behind." I was talking about my shirt, you idiot." I pulled my hand down, instantly. " You should apologise for the mess you made. " I gave him a pointed look."Look Princess!! " The word seemed more like a curse word coming from his mouth,as if he was mocking me. " The world doesn't revolve around you. Consider it first and last warning. Do not mess with me. "He glared and without waiting for any reply opened his car door."But, my shirt-I whined and his movement stopped once again before he closed the door harshly and turned towards me with rage."Seriously?? What the fuck do you want?? To wash your damn shirt and buy you books?? " His voice rising with each word this time as he growled again, being impatient and furious, a vein in his forehead throbbing wildly."A sorry would have worked. But the way you have behaved, this suggestion seems more justifying." I said, crossing my arms around my chest matching his glare and he clenched his teeth, as if trying to turn them into powder.Wow!! Did I just put the future CEO of Brown Industries on laundry service??Well, You see. Isn't life full of surprises?But it wouldn't be much of a surprise if you found yourself in the grave six feet under, in the upcoming seconds."What?? " He asked, not believing that anyone can ever talk to him like that.A moment passed And then, the anger was gone, replaced by amusement once again."Okay." He said and I frowned."What okay?? " I asked."I'll wash your shirt." He simply said and my frown deepened.He agreed?? Just like that??This doesn't look good." You'll wash it?? You'll wash my shirt?" I asked again in disbelief." I suggest you get your ears checked. I just agreed to wash it. Now take it off. " He said and an embarrassing heat creeped on my neck while my jaws dropped one more time."What did you just say?? " I asked, horrified."Take it off or do you need help with this?? " He asked again with a cocky smirk and I stood there with my jaws dropped.Before I could think of any retort his phone rang and he turned stoic, void of any emotions, even from anger that he was throwing towards me a moment ago. Disconnecting the call he looked at me again and exhaled an irritated sight before pulling out his wallet."Looks like this has to wait. Take this and buy yourself a new shirt and, " He looked at my books. The covers were clearly screaming DARK ROMANCE and my cheeks got heated as he looked back at me. " what the ever shit you read. " He stuffed lot's of notes in my hand before getting inside his car.I looked at the money once while gritting my teeth before turning towards his car and knocked on his window.I saw him inhaling another frustrated sigh before he rolled down the glass and looked at me. I threw his money on his face before saying."Take this money and hire yourself an Etiquette Coach and take some driving lessons. Moron!! " Saying that I walked back and he drove off after some seconds.I hope I never have to see him again or I'll break his handsome face.— CHRISTIAN—I was practically choking the steering wheel thinking of her neck. She, for sure, had a death wish to talk to me in that manner. And if I wasn't in a hurry, I would have fulfilled this wish of her's. The fucking audacity of that girl!! How dare she talk to me like that. No one has the balls to as much as look me in the eyes and that girl, she fucking insulted me in the middle of the damn road. And for what??? A damn shirt and some books?? For Fuck's sake!! My jaws clenched at the memory when she threw the money on face. My hold on the steering tightened even more and my knuckles turned white as I gritted my teeth. I already had to postpone the meeting that I'm working my ass off for last week because dad wanted to talk something very important that can't even wait an fucking hour and then the encouter with this weird girl just added feul into my rising temper. The lever of entitlement and stupidity that ran through her veins nearly had me driving the car into a pol
—CHRISTIAN—"Worried?? Why?? Because I've bagged deals for the company that their old asses couldn't even think of?? Well, I would like to see them talk to one of our Russian clients and not sweat like pigs.""And here it is." He gestured towards me. " This attitude of yours. They are afraid that you might ruin the company if you don't get a grip over your anger issues. " "This is ridiculous!! I've all the skills for a CEO. I don't need to prove my worth to anyone. "" Skills aren't enough to handle a large company. You'd need to be more than that. " "What do you want me to do?? Take anger management classes?? " I scoffed Irritatedly. "No, I want you to get married. " . . . Silence, A stressful silence prevailed in the room as we both stared at each other. I waited for him to start laughing and get over with his prank because it was hell of a disgusting one. But he didn't, instead kept looking at me with a grim face. I sighed while scratching my temple. " Is this some kind of
CHRISTIAN—I glared at the man tied in the chair in front of me. I was holding my patience with cotton thread, ready get this fucker unskinned.Exhaling deeply, I looked at my James and signalled him for my last try. He understood immediately and ran outside the room only to come back after a moment with a sharp blade in his hand. I took it from him and moved towards the chair of the traitor. He was bleeding from nose, lips, and had various cuts on his face. I still hadn't touched him, this all is my men's doing. “ Last chance, only for the sake of your loyal four years with me. And then, I'll show you what I do with a traitor. Tell me who else is involved in this?? “ I kept my voice low but dangerous. He was Carden, the man who had worked in my company for around five years and had been loyal to me. So I knew for the fact that there was someone else backing him up. And for the fact, I knew that Lopez doesn't have balls to get inside my walls. It has to be someone close. Someone f
—Jennifer—The audacity of that motherfucker!! I felt I was some object, the way he pointed at me, the way he rejected me. If I had stayed another minute there, I might have ended up killing that bastard. But since I knew that there won't be any books in the Jail, I dropped that plan. It's been three days since our visit to Brown mansion and thank the hell that Matthew hadn't contacted after that. Keeping Christian's dagger-like words aside, I was all happy about the drama that happened there. At Least I don't have to marry some rich motherfucker brat now. So now I do believe that ‘Whatever happens is for the best’After submitting the form of my Master's In Literature in the university, I and Cally headed to the nearest cafe. “ Jeez!! Did you drop your common sense in one of your shitiest books?? “ She asked and regretted Immediately calling my books shitiest as I slapped her head. “ Shut it up!! “ “ Seriously Jenni, Who the hell refuses to marry such a rich, hot man. He's the
—JENNIFER—The next week was spent peacefully with me joining my new college and spending the weekend with Cally and my new college friends. I also completed two more romance novels and most importantly I didn't get to see that rich brat or his annoying father. But as they say, It was calm before the storm. I stared blankly at the entrance of my house where Mathhew Brown was giving instructions to his brought servants to place the gifts in our living room while Mom, Dad and I stared at him in disbelief. “ Yes, Perfect!! I guess. But If you think they are going to get in anyone's way then please tell where else they should keep the gift, Mrs Wingsley. “ Mathhew addressed my mom who was still standing frozen in her place. My Dad cleared his throat before staring deadly at a man who has been a pain in our asses these days. “ What do you think you are doing, Mr. Brown?? “ “ What?? I've brought gifts for my to-be daughter in law. “ He grinned, walking up to the couch of the living are
—Christian—Life couldn't get more disappointing than this. Every plan that I had made for myself is being shattered one by one. First my project that I've been putting my whole life in was stolen, then dad's obsession with my marriage and that too with a girl who I can't even look at without raging. And even If it wasn't enough, Dad's threatening me to kick me out of business, the business that I had built, being on his side for all these years. The fuck I will let it go!! “ I don't care, I need an assurity that you won't back out. ““ Do you want a written statement, Dad??” I was annoyed. “ No, just a tiny tainy engagement. “ He grinned at me as if these were the most normal words. Inhaling deeply, I forced a smile. “ I will do that, just give me some time to get to know her. “ Translation: To make her back out. I can argue with him and I know I can get my way in the business but I'm a little concerned about him since he got into that accident a few weeks ago. Never something
— Christian—My life, my destiny, my plans, everything is betraying me. Never in this time of my existence had anything ever gone this badly opposite of me. And since my fate was on some kind of bet with someone, it's breaking all the records to get worse. I wanted to meet that girl and make her back out of this marriage. But I was so caught up in Dad’s accident video and George Lopez that I couldn't even find a single spare second to meet her. The week flew by in a blink and now I had just one day to convince her. Telling James to postpone all my meetings for today, I drove straight to her house. Now please don't ask how I know where she lives!! Stopping the car in front of her house I scanned its appearance. It doesn't seem to belong to a very rich family but was quite classy. My eyes wandered left to right, only to halt at particular brown long hairs. There she stood on the balcony, playing with a cat. A dazzling smile plastered on her face as she talked with that little thing
— JENNIFER —The car stopped at the entrance of Brown Mansion and I stared outside. Everything was decorated so nicely that I couldn't stop myself from awing. People were walking here and there, taking pictures. Unlike what they had told about the engagement being a private event, I can only see people all around. Even so many guests are still arriving. Between all this crowd, my eyes met with a particular black deep set of eyes which were already staring at me through the window from afar. Christian was talking on his phone, his expressions not pleased at all. An angry scowl was marrying his face and I couldn't understand how the hell does he always manage to look hot. Dressed in a black tuxedo, with his hair nicely settled towards the back, he was looking extraordinarily gorgeous. I didn't know if it's his handsome features or luxurious lifestyle that makes him attractive. But I can't deny the fact that he does look handsome all the fucking time. I tore my gaze away as the door to
