Chapter 2.
Andrea Brown's Pov.
I arranged my hair immediately I noticed the presence of mom and dad.
"Why are you guys fighting, what the hell is your problem girls?" My dad asked.
But the both of us were still panting heavily.
"I'm very sure Andrea started it first, she is always fond of doing so. She do bully my daughter most of the time" Mrs brown said and everyone in the room didn't mind what she said because she was just lying.
"What happened, that was my question" Mr brown said as I looked at Laura in disgust.
"I caught your lovely daughter having s** with my boyfriendnight." I revealed the truth as Mrs.brown gasped.
"You even have the guts to lie against my daughter." She shouted.
"I'm lying? Okay ? Let me show you this." I said picking up Laura phone on the floor,the phone was still working though but the screen is cracked already.
Laura tried dragging the phone from my hand.
"Your mom said I was lying, then can you do me a favor by opening your phone for me so that I will be able to prove to them that I am not lying." I said to Laura giving her phone for her to unlock it.
"Unlock the phone now." Mr.brown commanded her as she didn't want to open the phone.
She opened it finally I showed her mom their chats.
"Do you believe now?" I asked her immediately she saw it.
"I think you should be taught that lesson your mother forgot to teach you" I said as I left the room.
I'm very sure Mr.brown is going to talk to her for this.
He rarely talk anytime I and Mrs brown are having a problem.
Mrs.Brown is always fond of abusing me, I guess it's better now.
When I was a kid she beats and always threatened me she was going to kill me if I tell the police about it and I never told anyone about it.
Till now the mark is still on the body so I am used to wearing clothes that cover my back and my hand.
Thank goodness that the mark on my leg wasn't there anymore, it would have been a disaster.
I've forgotten I haven't used the bathroom yet, I went back to my bedroom.

"How much is for the medical fee?" I asked the doctor.
"The operation is going to cost a lot" The doctor said and I just nodded.
I looked at Mrs.hannah who was on the bed she is my caregiver of an orphanage home . She is only one who cared about me, sometimes I wish she was the the one who adopted me.
I don't know where I am going to get the money to treat her, she has helped me a lot.
"Okay thanks" I appreciated the doctor as he excused us and I sat down on the bed and touched her shoulder.
"Recover quickly ma'am" I encouraged her as I rubbed my palm on her forehead.
I went out of the room cleaning my tears.
Mrs.hannah is diagnosed with First stage of blood cancer and they will have to look for someone who can donate blood and the blood are matching.
She doesn't have any child. If any body wants to donate blood I will have to pay the person also.
And I'm not getting much money from the jewelry designs business that I am into.
I came out of the hospital as I boarded a cab back home.
After what happened this morning I didn't want to go to that house.
I will go to the orphanage home later, I'm really hungry and there is no money with me now.
I reached home after some minutes and I could hear Mrs Brown shouting.
What is happening?
I entered the room and everyone kept quiet immediately.
"Yes she is here, she can get married to him..." Mrs.Brown said pointing at me.
What is happening.
I could feel the tension in this place.
"Mom, I'm pregnant for Barnham I can't get married to that idler" Laura said running into her room.
Yeah! I heard about it a few days ago that Laura will be getting married to Edward Lester, everyone said that he is is an idler.
People did not want to marry him for who he is, I was told he is going to get married to the first daughter of the Brown's family.
I'm the first anyway, but I am not considered as their daughter since I was adopted.
I looked as them.
"Andrea dear" Mr.brown called me on my way to my room.
I waited and looked at him.
"Please we need you help, this is just a marriage contract, can you represent Laura" He asked for my favor and I laughed.
"What am I going to get in return?" I asked him and he looked at his wife.
"You know this is a marriage contract and we will be paid for it, so we will give you out if the money." He sincerely said. I don't want their money!!!
I will marry the man that I love.
"No!!!" I answered wanting to leave.
But the images of my carer that was laid on the hospital bed flashed into my head, I need to treat her, I can't let her die.
"Are you sure you are going to give me my share?" I turned back asking them and they nodded.
"Okay then I'm in, it is a marriage contract anyways not as if we are going to be close to each other" I said to myself as I went to my room.
I'm very sure they must be happy with the way I agreed with their terms.
I went inside my bedroom as I bounced on my bed, I wondered who is this guy I am going to marry.
"Hello" I answered picking my phone call.
"This is Barnham, I am sorry for what happened please listen to me before ending the call" He begged.
What else does he wants from me?
"I am sorry for what the other day I couldn't control myself, I called your number several times but you were not picking." He complained.
Wait!!! He wants me to pick his call after what he did to me the other day.
Is he kidding me?
"Your s** buddy is pregnant for you and you are here apologizing" I told me.
"You meant Laura?" He asked.
"Thank goodness you know!!" I replied and he laughed.
What is funny?
"She is just lying" He said and I ended the call.
He is doing everything so that I could get back to him.
But wait what if he is telling the truth, what if she is not pregnant?
Should I tell dad to take her to the hospital for test?
But I really need this money.
What should I do?
Chapter 3.Edward Pov.Two Weeks Later."It's unfair friend, please" Leonard begged and I rolled my eyes."Man, people will suspect, I can't let you do it. The vice president of Larson group besting me on my wedding day!!!" I told him."No, people can't suspect. You can just tell them I'm your friend from high school or something." He tried convincing me and I just rolled my eyes.Seriously?Friend from high school ."I will think about it " I promised him."Okay." He said and I just smiled.***************I will be getting married in a few weeks, I haven't seen my bride yet, I wonder what she will look like.I have always admired slim girl with curvy shape, I may be an idler but I have my type also.I can't wait to see her. No girl wanted me for the past few years, I have asked some out but they are not interested due to the fact that I am an idler. They consider me as a poor person in which I don't care.I had to fulfill my mom's dying wish to get married to the first daughter of t
Chapter 4.Andrea's Pov.It was the day of my wedding already, I wasn't happy at all because this is not the type of wedding I wished for.I looked at the different gifts from yesterday on my bed, okay I think I'm leaving the lingeries here.Pamela really made my night fun yesterday.We have been very close friends ever since we were in college and I also invited some other friends too.I heard the door opening and I saw the makeup artist.Gosh! I really wanted to look natural on my wedding day but now!!!"Make it not visible please" I begged the make up artist and she nodded.After I was done she helped me with my wedding gown, I did not really like those big netty gown. So I picked a long slim fitted gown that has a slit my laps.After that the hairstylist came and style my hair and it look so cool.After the dressing and all I looked at myself at the long mirror, I looked so pretty.The gown brought out my shape which made me a little bit comfortable.For a while I was happy that I
Chapter 5.Edward's Pov.The ride was a quite a silent one , is she a quiet person?I was still thinking about what her sis told me."I'm very unlucky to marry someone like her.." What does that statement means?I looked at her and she was just with that straight face, she blinked her eyes several times."Are you nervous?" I asked her and she looked at me."Maybe it because I'm with a stranger, I don't know anything about you except from the fact that you are an idler. I will start living with a stranger, of course I will be nervous." She replied."Yeah, it was just a marriage contract, we can live as a stranger." I said and she nodded."And even have a boyfriend?." She asked and I looked at her and looked back at the road"Yes" I replied her."Do you have a boyfriend?" I asked her."We are strangers remember?" She said and I just kept shut.Really tough?She sighed and I don't know why it looked as if she's going through a hard time..What's it?We arrived at my house, it was small a
Chapter 6Andrea's Pov.I entered the company as many people were roaming, things were kind of busy though.I ran quickly as my eyes searched around for the receptionist location, I'm 30 minutes late, my ankle is really aching me thanks to my heels.I heard a sound below as I stopped running immediately, oh no!!!The sole of one pair of my heel broke."Oh no!!! What am I going to do?" I muttered.I took the second heel as I broke it alsoPeople were staring at me, which made me more nervous, I quickly ran to where the receptionist was staying."Ma'am, I'm here for the interview." I said panting."The first turn to the right at the 6th floor" She directed me to where the interview will be taking place.Gosh, I ran so fast as my leg could carry, unfortunately for me I didn't realize the floor was just mopped and I slipped and hit my butt on the floor. The files that I was holding was on the floor and I stood up and arranged them.I stood at the front of the elevator waiting for it to op
Chapter 7.Andrea's Pov."Pann pann pann" I heard the sound of the spoon hitting the pot which made me to wake up.I guess Edward is cooking, woah I can't believe I slept off on the couch, my neck really aches.I stood up as I went to the kitchen, the aroma of the spaghetti hit my nose, I couldn't wait to taste it. I didn't know he can cook, woah!!!He didn't notice my presence though."Good morning" I greeted loud enough for him to hear, the funniest part was that he didn't reply.He looked so hot with the apron even tho he was putting on his masquerade mask, he still looked hot.He noticed my arrival and didn't even bother to greet me.We are just strangers tho, he isn't owing me anything lest I forget."You should find something to do with your life and stop being an idler." I shot at him and he stopped whatever he wa doing immediately and looked at me.I could see the smile on his face "At least I'm better than someone who couldn't even make it early to an interview." He said.He
Chapter 8.Andrea's Pov.*Some Minutes Later.*I really want to scream so hard, but I kept on holding it.I finally got a job and now I am going to sign a contract, I planned on working with the company for five years."The contract isn't available now, you will get to sign it when you start working, and you will start working as from next week." The president said as I nodded my head."Tell the next person to come in." He said to a little thing he was holding in this hand, but I guessed he was talking to his secretary."You can go now." He said immediately after he ended the call. I stood up and bowed my head and I turned back and I was surprised to see the person who was standing by the door side, my joy vanished immediately on seeing her.What the hell is Laura doing here?Is she following me?I thought she has her own job.I really hate this girl so much, we stared at each other for some seconds and she didn't even look surprised for meeting me here.I walked out with my evil glar
Chapter 9.Edward Pov.Today was so stressful, I received a call from Andrea asking me to pick her if I am going home and I didn't give her a reply anyway.I changed my mind and later branched at her house, the door was opened though, I was already entering before I heard the family arguing.I could hear Andrea's Voice, I never knew she could talk this way.I heard as they continued arguing and I heard her sister calling me an idler and I just smiled immediately. I employed her to work anyways she doesn't know about that.Where am I going to get sanitary pads?Shit!!!I went into my room and searched my luggage in case I will be able to see any sanitary pad or tampons, but unfortunately there was none.I went to the toilet to check myself and I haven't seen anything yet. It happens sometimes, I do feel the pain before the day of my period.I remembered when Barnham was still my boyfriend, anytime my period come unannounced, he will help me...I'm still wondering the type of charm Laur

I employed her to work anyways she doesn't know about that.I saw as she was coming towards where I was standing without even looking up, she bumped into me and that was when she noticed I was at the door.I guess she was shocked to me there, I don't mind anyways.************After all the drama that happened at her house, it was a long ride anyways not until when she started asking all stuff of question and she asked a particular one in which I didn't even know the answer.Why did I agree for her to meet her ex anyway, I di
