POISON {Becoming the billionaire's wife}

Nathan Tate’s POVSitting in front of my computer, I glance once again at the photo of Elizabeth MaryAnn Richards. A cosmic smile plays on my lips at the thought that she was going to be my wife. At least then, the media would stop running my name through the mud, jumping to conclusions. Today was the day I would officially meet her, I have a lot of expectations. Any woman in the world would want to be my wife. To be in that position. I can only wonder how Elizabeth reacted when her parents gave her the news. Picking up the tablet on my table, I begin to tap on it accessing the area where the debts are recorded. Ever since I was a little boy, Dad had introduced the family company with a new branch. A lender. flashback“Sir, Fitz has collected Mr. Andrew Richards. He is in the conference room.” “Very well, I’ll be right there.” Picking up the tablet, I rise from my chair and advance towards the conference room. “Sir..do you need me to co..”“I can handle this on my own.

I expected him to say something. to at least justify his actions but all he does is scoff and look bac

There was a long silence that followed after. As though everything froze. My father's eyes were still on me, stuck to me. This was the first time I had ever Rendered my father speechless.

My brothers and I, why afraid of the discipline that he gave in the form of violence. He had broken Phillips's leg when he was 11 the day he first found him kissing a girl.
