Chapter 4

"Of course, without letting you know how will I bring it into work," Jack replied to him with a smile. Then he explained to him, "Firstly, we will visit Nichole's parents and convince them of your marriage to Sarah. Once they agree, you will ask them for a court marriage saying that you have to leave for a long business trip to Switzerland."

After your marriage, you will take her to Switzerland with you for your honeymoon and handover her over to me. Once I'd get her in my bed, she would belong to me only."Jack said to him with a smirk on his face. "

"And last but most important thing, don't you ever dare to touch her? Even after getting married to her, you have to maintain a reasonable distance from her." Jack warned him.

"Don't worry, I'll never get closer to her. I'll always treat her as your woman. "Daniel assured him.

"OK then, be ready. We"ll visit Nichole's home tomorrow. I'll ask my assistant to notify them of our visit." Jack said to Daniel after being satisfied with his assurance.

"Tomorrow? Isn't it too early? Don't you think we should take some more time to set up our plan? " Daniel expressed his doubts.

" There is no need to take so much time for planning. We might have to modify our plan according to the circumstances. Moreover, I can't wait any longer to have her. So I want to accomplish everything as soon as possible. "

"OK, I'll do as you say. Moreover, it's good for me if you succeed quickly so that I can also earn money in a shorter period." Daniel laughed.

Jack also laughed hearing him and said to him, "you may leave now. I"ll inform you about tomorrow's schedule after my assistant discusses it with Nichole's father."

After that, Jack asked his assistant to call Dr. Albert Fernandez and notify him of Jack and Daniel's visit to his home.

After talking with Nichole's father, the assistant told Jack that Dr. Albert Fernandez has been agreed to meet him at 11 a.m. at his house.

The next day, Jack and Danial reached Nichole's home at the decided time. It was not a big house, but still well furnished and beautifully maintained.

The maid opened the door and led them towards Nichole s parents sitting in their drawing room.

Both Jack and Daniel greeted The Fernandez couple and sat on the chairs in front of them. Sarah's father Dr. Albert Fernandez ordered the maid to bring coffee for guests and started a conversation with them as he said to Jack with a smile, "Mr. Lewis, it's so good to see you here. But I wonder why you suddenly decided to meet us because we are not even acquainted with each other."

"Well, I am sorry for not telling you the reason for our arrival on the phone, but it was only fair to discuss this matter personally, that's why I had not revealed it till now. "Jack explained to him.

"Please speak, what do you want to discuss?" Dr. Albert Fernandez asked him.

"Mr. Fernandez, I am here to have a few words with you on behalf of my friend, Daniel D'souza," Jack said as he pointed toward Daniel.

After taking a short pause, he further explained," He saw your daughter Nichole at my party and fell in love with her. He wants to marry Nichole but was feeling shy to ask you about this. That's why he asked me to bring this marriage proposal to you. "

He lost his parents a few years ago and has nobody in his family. He works in my company as a marketing manager and is very close to me. So I am here to ask for your consent for this wedding. " Jack said to him.

"Are you ready to marry your daughter to my friend Daniel? " He finally asked feeling nervous because deep down he knew that apart from this, there was no other way for him to get close to Nichole.

Albert Fernandez couldn't speak a word for a while. He looked at his wife as such he was asking for her opinion. After seeing happiness in her eyes, he felt a sense of relief. They were always tensed because of Nichole's loneliness and sadness. She kept trying to appear happy and carefree in front of them, but being her parents they could understand how much pain in she was because of her experience.

Though they wanted her to settle down in her life, they never forced her, until her father got a major heart attack. After that, he started pressurizing Nichole for getting married as soon as possible so that there is someone to comfort and support her if anything happened to him suddenly. Taking into consideration his health condition, she agreed to marry sooner.

This was the reason why he sent Nichole to attend the party hosted by Jack Lewis so that she could start getting along with other people and find a suitable guy for her.

Now when someone had come by himself to marry his daughter, his happiness was boundless. Moreover, Daniel was good-looking and worked in one of the most reputed companies in the city. So he was more than happy to marry Nichole to Daniel.

Just when he was about to respond, Nichole entered the room holding her father's medicines in her hands. She was taken aback little seeing strangers in her house. But when she watched carefully, Jack appeared familiar. Then she remembered meeting him at his wedding anniversary party. She then greeted him with a smile, "Hello Mr. Lewis. "

"Hello," Jack replied with a small answer. He was dumbfounded seeing her suddenly. Although it was just the second time that he was meeting with Nichole, still he felt like he is acquainted with her for a very long time, because he had assumed himself with her in his thoughts countless times.

He didn't want to take his eyes off her, but being surrounded by Nichole's parents, he had to control himself. That's why he shifted his gaze towards Dr. Albert Fernandez.

A few seconds later, Nichole's mother said to Nichole as she indicated to daniel, "Meet him. He is Mr. Jack Lewis's friend Daniel D'souza.

Sarah greeted him also," Hello, Mr. D'souza. "

Daniel nodded his head towards her and said to her, "Hello, Miss Fernandez. "

Then Nichole's father asked her to sit down beside him. Then he said to her, "The fact is that Mr. Daniel D'souza is here with a marriage proposal for you. Both me and your mother like him and are willing to get you married to him. But we want to know what is your opinion regarding this?."

Hearing him Nichole immediately stood up from her seat and looked at her father with a shocked expression. Although she had agreed to marry in front of her parents for consoling them, she didn't want to get married at all. The reason was simply that she still had the same person in her heart whom she loved to begin with.
