Ramona promised herself she would never get involved with any man talkless of down the aisle again to marry.
"Ramona," Belle called.
"I'm sorry, I would pretend I never heard those words" Ramona stated.
Sebastian just stared at her, watching her movement closely with his eyes never leaving her body for a second.
"Don't you want to pay money for the flower vase?," Sebastian questioned, and Ramona looked him in the eyes, trying hard to get intimidated by his intimidating, and dominating look.
"I said it before, I will work hard to pay," Ramona said.
"And how do you intend to do that, you are an orphan with no one to help you. You are divorced and I doubt if Harry Walker would ever help you "
Ramona held her suitcase tightly as her fingers began to fiddle with the handle of the suitcase.
She can't believe he's rubbing her horrible life on her face directly with no bit of emotion on his face.
Is it her fault she's poor??, or is it her fault she has no parents??. She never intended or planned to be an orphan but fate has a great way of making things.
She has wished to have home but no one is ready to accept that she now believes that she has ill luck following her behind.
No one cares about her, they only want to take advantage of her, and discard her later like a tissue.
She wished there would be at least one person that showers love and attention, and not hatred and insincere love towards her.
"Ramona," Belle called, bringing her soul back to reality. Ramona looked at Belle before giving Sebastian a look then finally settled her eyes on Belle.
"You are mistreating me because I'm poor. Who am I to complain?You control the world so I have no say but I will work hard to pay for the flower vase, and impress you" Ramona stated, and Sebastian suddenly chuckled at her words.
Belle gave him a glance before taking a step forward towards Ramona who took a step backward immediately.
"I would like to leave," Ramona uttered, and tried to leave when Belle stopped her by standing in front of the door.
"Let's talk before you leave. After this discussion, I will let you decide whatever, and free you " Belle said, hoping to convince as she gave Ramona an innocent look.
Belle Sinclair, a wealthy billionaire, and the only daughter of the Sinclair family. She has wealth by her side, power in her hands, and nous in her but she just prefers to be a gentle average lady.
Luckily for her, no one knows anything about the Sinclair family, all that the media knows is that, Sebastian is an illegitimate ugly son of the Sinclair family, and the Sinclair are stinkingly rich with no one beating their net worth.
Belle held Ramona's hand softly and took her inside a room. As soon they got inside the room, Belle made Ramona sit on the bed then sat next to her.
"That he used to behave, he doesn't know how to beg or plead with someone and believes everything can be done with a command" Belle started first.
"But he's scary with those scars on his face, his attitude is more scary to me" Ramona confessed.
"He desperately needs a child, and I want to plead with you to help him, help us"
"Am I stupid?? Is being weak, and unprivileged now a sin?" Ramona asked no one in particular as liquid dropped off my eyes.
She has always been a pry, and object of ridicule to the people.
"No, Ramona, don't say that. You are not stupid, and not weak too. You are a strong woman with a good heart and I believe you will help us. Just marry for a year or so, and bear him a child, he needs a child to make himself proud."
"His name?" Ramona repeated.
"Sebastian Sinclair, he just needs someone to continue that name. Bare him a child, and afterward you divorce him, please help him"
"I'm sorry to ask, why can't you bear him a child?" Ramona asked, and Belle looked at the other side thinking of the lie to drop. She can't bare him a child because in her family, there's nothing like incest, there's nothing like sexual love in her family.
"He doesn't want me to help him even when I intend to help him. I'm surprised he wants you to help him. Ramona marry him, help him, he desperately needs a child " Belle appealed, and Ramona looked away.
"What happened to his face, the scars on his face?" Ramona asked.
"An accident, a terrible accident happened to him."
Should she help him??, She's going to that altar she intends to avoid. Ramona stood up, and walked towards the door.
She opened it and was startled when she saw Sebastian at the door staring at her with amusement.
"Marry me based on contract, I won't pry into your private life because we will both mind each other's business, I need a child, and about your payment, I will hustle for it"
Ramona nodded negatively. He truly needs a child, he's going to hustle to pay her that means he's poor too and yet he feels he needs a child.
She stared at him then nodded.
"I will help you, I will give you a child then divorce you afterward" Ramona said.
Belle smiled out.
"I'm poor, and ugly and yet you want to help me. Am I not scaring you?"
"It's not your fault you are poor, and ugly..I don't need any money, I just want to help because it looks like you are desperate for a child. Sir Sebastian, you are not scaring me at all but at first I was scared" Ramona stated then laughed amidst her last words.
Sebastian stared at her in amusement.
"We are getting married tomorrow"
Ramona's eyes widened. She never expected it to be so fast, she just made a decision but at least he should have given her some time to settle well.
"So fast"
"I know you are going to accept the offer" Sebastian stated, and went away.
Ramona bites her lower lip, she hates it when people read her easily.
"Sorry, wife, let's
go, pardon my manners" Ramona's eyes widened, as he dragged her out of the room.
Who's he exactly?
Sebastian took Ramona outside the room, and her eyes never stopped widening at his last statement. Did he just call her wife or was it a slip of the tongue. "The wedding is tomorrow, Belle will do the necessary preparation" "I will buy you a wedding gown," Belle said, and Ramona declined almost immediately with her hands waving in the air negatively. "No, don't. I will just rent the wedding gown. It's just a one day wedding, he's still hustling and same with me, and I don't want to burden you so we don't need to buy a wedding dress " Ramona said, and Belle smiled. "Thank you for understanding, I was even thinking of where I will lend money for the wedding gown" Belle stated, and Ramona smiled. "You don't need to," "When do you intend to rent the gown?" Sebastian asked, as he stared at Ramona with amusement. He still finds it hard to believe that Ramona will do surrogacy for him without nothing in return. She's fine with his ugliness unlike other women that avoid him as soon as
Ramona watched the man leave, and still wondered who he was. Ramona kept glancing at Sebastian and the man as they went upstairs to the third floor.They opened a door, went in and shut the door abruptly. Ramona looked away, and continued to climb down the stairs as she gave herself a little tour round the house.Ramona headed to a door, she opened it to see two elderly people inside the room which looked like a kitchen."Mrs Sinclair," The elderly woman called, and Ramona glanced back almost immediately to be sure the elderly woman was really talking to her.The elderly man chuckled, "I'm talking to you, Mrs Sinclair. Do you need anything?" She asked, smiling brightly at Ramona.Ramona smiled back as she wondered who they were."I'm Old lady Mary, and this elderly man here is Butcher Alberto" Mary stated, just as if they were reading her mind."Oh, Lady Mary, and Butcher Alberto. I'm happy to meet you. I'm Ramona Lang, Sebastian's wife" Ramona introduced, and Lady Mary, and Butcher A
The next day, the ray of light reflected on on Ramona's face as she forcefully opened her eyes. She removed the duvet from her body, and rolled off the bed as her feet strike the ground.She yawned, stretching her hands out, as she stood up. Ramona went inside the washroom, she flinched when she saw tiles.She could not still accept the fact that washroom looking luxurious, with an artificial fish tiles that looks real.Yesterday, after Sebastian left her in the room, Ramona cleaned herself up as she gave herself a little tour round her room.Her room is indeed big, spacious and beautiful. When she was with Harry, she once lived in a spaceous room too which was within two years but after two years, she started living in a guest room for a year before she was ordered by Harry's mom to stay in the storage room.Her fourth and fifth year was spent in the storage room. In the fifth year, she tush the storage home as she provided herself with her hard earned money.Claire, Harry's mother,
Ramona left the house as she headed to the cafe where she works part time. She arrived there, and entered the cafe shop, Nunami cafe.She met the owner of the cafe which is a young man who should between in his late twenties.Terry Adam.Ramona saw him, and greeted him as she bowed her head slightly."Good morning boss," Ramona greeted, and he smiled brightly at her."Morning,"The cafe door opened, and Ramona turned around as she face the door, she bowed slightly and greeted four people that entered the cafe."Welcome sir and ma, what will you like to order. Please kindly take a seat" She stated, and heard Sam chuckling."They are not customers, they will be working here" He said, and her eyes widened as she glanced at Terry then settled her eyes back on them."I'm Cindy," The girl in blonde hair said, waving her right hand slightly at Ramona."Tyla is my name""I'm Keith, your co-worker""And, I'm Chad "They introduced themselves, and Ramona nodded. From their look, and dressing, s
Terry interfered as he urged Ramona to leave the cafe, to go on a break, and come back in the evening.Ramona nodded, and sluggishly left the cafe with a lost mind as Tyla followed her behind."Hey, Ramona," Tyla called, as she caught up with Ramona, smiling at her. Ramona stopped walking and gave Tyla a glance, and tried facing front with her face covered with palm when Tyla stopped."Do you seduce him?"Ramona nodded negatively as she whimpered silently on her palm, and Tyla hugged her, stroking her back gently."You did not seduce him so stop crying, that bastard should have been the one crying his eyes out and not you that barely understand what happened" Tyla stated, and Ramona nodded.Tyla broke the hug, and cleaned Ramona's eyes as she smiled at her."C'mon, smile at me" Ramona chuckled, and Tyla smiled, hugging her one more time before disengaging from the hug."Let's go for lunch"Ramona nodded, and followed Tyla as they trekked to a local restaurant. Ramona got her mind occ
Ramona, and Tyla went back to the cafe after their lunch with Tyla's mind fully occupied.She wished Ramona never left the washroom early, she had a lot of plans for Ramona but the plans got ruined.Tyla envied the fact that Ramona is entangled with the Sinclair family, though Sebastian is an illegitimate child of the Sinclair family but one being associated with him,if she is in Ramona's shoes, truthfully she will use his family name to paint the town red.She never befriended anyone below her league but got closer with Ramona with just one aim which is to get closer to her in order to have access to Sinclair's wealth.Tyla is a young woman who has dreamt to have a wonderful life, and to be filled with traveling, fun, love, and ecstasy.Her and Ramona got back to the cafe as Terry welcomed them with a smile. He beckoned at Ramona to see him as Tyla watched her leave with curiosity clearly shown in her eyes."Look away, staring at someone for long can make an eyeball fall, and I'm sur
Ramona kept running, and suddenly tripled as she fell on the ground. The men started approaching her, and she started screaming, as she held onto the cat who kept crying.The men were about to hit her when a hand stopped their actions in the air."Don't tell me you want to rob a woman" Ramona heard an unfamiliar voice as she glanced up to see an unfamiliar face staring at her.A man in his thirties staring at Ramona as he stopped the men from robbing Ramona. She stood up with her kitten as she went to stand behind the man.The men tried to hit the unfamiliar man when some men dressed in black suits stopped them.The unfamiliar man faces Ramona as he smiles at her, then glances at the kitten in her arms, and smiles again."Thank you for saving""Be careful, this street is very crazy at night, and by the way, I'm Deacon Jones" He introduced himself, stretching out his hand for a handshake, and Ramona responded to his handshake smiling."Thank you,once again" Ramona appreciated, and he s
"No, I'd rather eat with my new no born baby" Ramona said, and he realized the baby she's talking about is the new kitten she just brought in today.“Are you referring to the kitten as a baby?” Ramona ignored him as she went upstairs to her room, and shut the door.She got inside the room, and placed the kitten on the rug then placed the pizza on the bed as she went straight to the washroom to wash her hand.Ramona stood in front of the mirror in the washroom as she turned on the faucet, and washed her hand thoroughly then pour soap on her hands, and washed her hands again thoroughly before turning off the faucet.She rinsed her face then stared at her reflection in front of the mirror. Her face is getting smooth, and fresh, and why won't it be fresh when there's peace of mind, and comfort.Ramona stepped out of the washroom as she went to sit on the bed. She switched on the TV that's in her room, and the tv displayed a Korean drama, ”Castaway Diva” , a new Korean drama that was relea
