His Proposal

"Son you know you can't get everything without a wife" mother said which I don't know why she's suffering herself over the will that am not interested in "But mom I have no girlfriend nor a fiance and you're talking about a wife. How is that possible?" I questioned not understanding her "We need someone to pretend to be your wife and get the will that's all after everything you both go on your way no string attached" she simply stated "In exchange of what?" I asked because every girl I know will asked for something in returned "I will think about that later" "Mom I hope you won't regret it later" I warned "Don't worry I need someone from poor background or a girl from the slum" "Mom" I shouted irritably. I just don't understand how mother think sometimes "Okay forget that part but we need to look for a way out" "Have heard you i will think about it but I have some works to do" "Be fast about it or I take things into my hand" "Don't worry bye" I said tired of the topic alrea

Zion PovBirds chirping always sound like music to me every morning because I love the way it is always fresh and calming before the morning sunlight. I picked up the remote and opened the curtain so that I could inhale the morning breeze before the sunlight came out. I sat up and began doing push ups for a few minutes before I walked into the bathroom to freshen up and go to work. I'm not the type to waste her time so I finished on time and walked out to see my grandma already on the dining table "Good morning grandma" I greeted her smiling at her "Good morning grandson" she replies "how was your night?""Splendid""Good to hear that" she said before pressing the intercom for the maids to begin the serving. We ate quietly through the breakfast which I'm glad because I hardly eat quietly like this with grandma on the table because she has one thing or the other to say. About to take my last bit when she cleared her throat which I know she's about yo say something so I looked up at

Scarlet Pov I walked inside and saw everyone busy with work "I'm home" I announced to no one in particular "How was your first day at work?" Mom asked stopping what's she's doing"Nothing much so yes it was fine" I replied going to the dinning to take some water"That's good to hear" father chip in"I have never for once asked how my delivery was" Abraham complained "is it that I am not noticed in this house or what?" He said glaring at me which I shrug"Well we don't asked because you spend more than anyone so no need" mother deadpan "But" he tried to say "Say another word and trust me you will be grounded throughout the week" mother said seriously which Abraham knows better not to try her because she will make sure his grounded which he doesn't like staying at home"Let's eat" I said to no one in particular. They all sat on the table, Jackie sitting close to me while we ate in silence. Done eating I pack the dishes to the sink before cleaning my hand "have paid Mr Frank money"

Scar povJackie walked in shortly with her phone "who was that?" I couldn't help but questioned her seeing how she's behaving"A client" she replied not looking at me which only means she's lying to me but decided to let it be since I'm tired. I adjusted the duvet "Off the light when you're done" I said, covering my eyes with an eye mask since I can't sleep with the light on.**I woke up late because I turned off the alarm, seeing it was disturbing my sleep. "Jackie you need to wake-up if you don't want to be late for work" I said tapping her but the dummy head wouldn't wake up so I had to drag her down "Stop that Scar" she said trying to pushed me with her legs"Get up or you will be late and I know you wouldn't like your cousin to take your place in the office" I sing a song while she sprint to the toilet which I sigh in relief seeing that did the trick. I guess she doesn't want someone else to take the company under her nose so she always try her best to be punctual and active

Scar povI didn't know what actually came over so I ran out of the car because I know what I did is embarrassing enough. Immediately I'm at the door I composed myself before walking in there I saw the devil in disguise I called my best friend behind my mom hiding "Jackie" I said smiling so it won't seem as if I'm mad at her"You're back?" She asked "Yes I am" I replied "and you know we have some unfinished business right?" I asked "I don't think so and as you can see I'm giving mother a little help here" she said hugging my mother from the back"Don't mind her daughter you know Scar doesn't help around rather lazing around her room that's why I'm always to see you around. I wished you live here with us" mother praised jackie which I know if I make any drastic mistake she will beat the daylight out of me"Oh my sweet mother" I said "you know you're the one that always asked me to take care of my body and to sleep very well so my skin will be smooth and good" I sweet talked her"I kno
