Chapter No 5 Adjusting to Mr Arrogant

She had been sitting in his room since morning, and the servant left food. A few of them look at her with curiosity making her feel unknowingly embarrassed. “I am bored, Sparkles let go down” she said to her cat and left the room. Few servants were doing their routine work. She silently sits over the sofa observing things. The mansion was too huge. She was sitting in the launch where a lot of paintings and expensive decorations pieces were glittering. She felt even more bored. She looked around towards the servants who were secretly looking at her with curiosity. She got up.

“What? What happened, why are you guys looking at me like this?” she asked softly. A woman in her 60s walks ahead.

“You are the first woman after My lady, who came here” she said,

“My Lady?” she repeats.

“Yeah Master’s mother” she said.

“I am the first one he brought home, how can it be? He has dozens of girlfriends” she thought.

Then the door opened and she turned. When he came home, he looked tired and drunk.

“Tsk,Tsk, young master is drunk again,” said the maid. He walked slowly up the stairs. The maid looked at him with pity which she was unable to understand. The maid left with sad expressions.

“Why was she feeling so pitiful?” she thought.

“Meoww” Sparkles was walking around her. “I know little one you are hungry” she said and asked for milk from one servant.

She was still looking at the stairs. After giving milk to Sparkles, she went towards his bed.

She opened the door and the room was dark. He was sleeping over the bed with his shoes on. She went ahead. He was sleeping like a baby. His devil face showed too much innocence.

His light hairs were shelved over his forehead. He was so handsome. She wanted to touch his hair badly unconditionally. She moved her hand towards his forehead but at the same moment he turned to hug her hand along. She was trying to free her hand. His grip was too strong.

“Even in sleep he is too strong” she thought annoyed. “My bad wishes to touch his forehead” she scolded herself.

“Please don’t leave me, Please, I promise I won’t let him hurt you, Julieta please don’t go, I, I love you please I won’t let anything happen to you” he was begging in his dreams.

She never saw him this week. A man who had 6.5ft height and was strong like an iron wall was too weak in his dreams. She sits beside him after a while he falls asleep.

She carefully moved her hand and untied his shoes and put them off. She went towards the sofa and got laid, after a few minutes she fell asleep.Alot of thoughts were in her head.

She was getting ready to go with him as they did not go last night. After fifteen minutes they left in his luxurious car. He took her to the top store of Canada which happened to be Fannagean’s top brand. She liked a dress, a light blue with cross back. She checked the tag and it was thrice more than her three months salary. She put it back in the rack.

“Did you like anything?” he asked in a deep voice. She nodded in no. He gives her a deep sigh.

“We want that whole rack she was standing at,” he said to the salesgirl. She looked at him instantly, shocked.

“Mr. Easton, what will I do with this much clothes?” she asked in a whisper.

“You are my fiancée so you have to look like one,” he said in a whisper and turned.

“Fake fiancée,” she said under breath.

He took her to places where only rich people could go. This world was totally new to her. He was teaching her everything.

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

It was a huge party and everyone from the Upper class was there. They were elite, some were politicians, some were showbiz, and some were bureaucrats. She was feeling very nervous.

She was holding his arm and walking confidently as he said but from inside she was feeling so much nervous.

“Hello Mr. Finnagean,” said a woman who was wearing a heavy makeover. She looked at Matilda.

“Hello Miss Tame! She is my Fiancée, Matilda Huston” he said smiling.

“Oh such a gorgeous young lady! You have not introduced or announced it to the Media,” she said sugar-coated.

“Media? No No No I can’t be a national headline….National? no with Easton it would be international” she thought afraid.

“Relax Media is not here, they can’t be here” he whispered.

“Matilda this is Miss Maria Tame, she is the owner of Tame’s industry” he introduced.

“Hello Miss Tames, it’s really nice to meet you” she said smiling.

“Miss Huston, aren’t you the Assistant at Fannagean’s” A woman in her late 20s appeared into thin air. Now she was confused.

“Miss Huston is my Fiancée. She wanted to know the Company’s reputation, that’s why she did that job undercover,” he said, covering her identity. She looked up at him. He holds her waist a bit stronger to let her know to play along.

“Yeah I wanted to know how the company works so that’s why I was undercover” she said confidently. She smirked.

“Which class do you belong to, Miss Huston? I mean what is your family business?” asked the woman. That;s when she saw anger over Easton’s face.

“Martha!Did fannageans ever care about wealth and status?” he asked in a tone that made her quiet.

“The old Easton is back” she thought.

“Excuse me, I need to go washroom” she said.

“Yeah sure honey” he said softly.

“Why he has to be so sugarcoated” she thought.

“I will be back, sugar don’t get lost with the bees” she said while looking at the woman who was still looking at her nastily.

“Kitten playing with lions?” he thought and smirked. He went ahead to meet a few other elites. Martha smiled evil. She walked towards the bathroom.

She went inside when someone had closed the main door. When she came out and washed her hands. She walked towards the exit and pushed the door but it was stuck. She tried to push it even harder but the door was completely stuck.

“Why on the earth this is fucking not opening” she said annoyed and then the lights went off and this time she felt a real fear.

“Hello anyone outside open the door” she said aloud. The air was getting so low inside, she felt herself breathing less. She has no more air to speak.

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

He was talking to his business partner, it has been twenty minutes, she has not returned. He looked around to check. But she was nowhere.

“Where has she gone?” he thought. He went towards the bathrooms, but it had been written closed over it. He turned towards the other side in order to check on the other side when heard his name with an almost faint voice.

“Easton! Help me” he turned towards the closed door of the bathroom. The under construction sticker on it was freshly pasted. She grabbed it and threw it away. He opened the door. She fell when he held her in his arms.

“Matilda? open your eyes” he said worried. He lifted her up and took her outside. He went outside the party. The media has arrived and someone has informed them that Easton has arrived with his fiancée. He gives them an angry look. They all step back with hesitation, He adjusts her inside the car and gets inside the car he starts it.

******

She got up early in the morning, she opened her eyes, he was sitting with her on the bed. He has been guarding her the whole night.

She got out of the bed and turned up the curtains. The whole room was shining with sunlight. He opened his eyes. His eyes were red due to sleeplessness. He looked at her.

“Thanks Mr. Easton, if you had not saved me I would be long dead” she said smiling. He did not answer.

“Why doesn’t he answer my thanks” she thought, annoyed.

“Be ready tomorrow you are going with me to my parents” he said in a deep voice.

“Your what?” she asked, shocked.

“My parents” he said. “And dress well” he added.

“But Mr. Fannagean I am nervous. What if I?” she was about to complete her sentence when he cut her off in the middle.

“You are good at it” he said and got up. He looked so tired.

“Mr. Fannagaen you need sleep, go to sleep, I will tell Natalie to handle it” she said worried.

He raised his hand in the air. “I don’t need your care,” he said harshly. She felt that. He got up and went out of the room.

“Especially when caring about someone it gives nothing but takes all, when I start to care it brings a curse, I don’t want to care about you” he thought while leaving the room. She was watching him sadly.

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

She was sleeping in the room, when he came out of the bathroom. He forbade her to go home, because it could make people suspicious of their relationship. He was wearing just a towel.

“Here we go again, get lost, bad thoughts,” she thought annoyed. She was pretending to sleep. He walked towards the bed side table and opened it. She felt her heart beat fast as he was too much closer. She read something written over his chest.

“Julieta” she read that in her mind and then she closed her eyes.

“Who is julieta?” she thought. “He has many exes, maybe one of them” she thought annoyed.She was angry over him because he has been harsh to her.

“I was helping him and he was scolding me” she thought, annoyed.

“An important girl? He has her name tattooed on his chest” she thought.

He got up and went towards the balcony, she straight up on the bed and looked at his shoulder. He was smoking while grabbing the balcony’s grill.

“Why is he so mysterious?” she thought. “At the same time I can see a caring man who has a good side and then I can see a demon side which loves to punish” she was staring over his strong back when she heard vibration near her toe.

“Boss it’s done” it was Natalie.

“Why is Natalie texting him this late? Did he ask her to do my work?” she thought annoyed.

“Natalie took my job” she thought sadly.

“Though this pretending will give me a lot of money, I will still need job” she thought. She put her head over the pillow exhausted. She was unable to sleep and he did not come inside the room, she noticed until she was awake and after an hour she fell asleep.

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

They were going to his Parents; he stopped the car near some shop. She looked at him with questionable expressions.

“You are introducing yourself as my fiancée so you have to pretend properly. Let’s buy some gifts” he said expressionlessly.

“Why this whole thing so important to him?” she thought annoyed.

“Why? Escaping from marriage and relationships important to you? Will you not do anything to escape from it?” a voice came inside her.

She got out of the car, led by him towards the shop. She chose a beautiful

antique vase and so many other gifts just as he said. They were walking towards the exit after payment when a tan man in his late 40s came towards them and started pleading.

First she thought he was a beggar but by the time he got up he looked like an elite. She looked at Easton who was expressionless.

“Mr. Fanaggaen, please don’t cancel the contract, we will be doom” he pleaded.

“You daughter did something she should not have, she almost killed my fiancée” he said with stone expressions.

“I I am sorry Mr. Fanaggaen….it won’t” he was about to complete his sentence when he raised his hand shutting him out and grabbed her hand and took her with him towards their car.
