A Contractual Marriage With A Stranger

The beginning

"Aaaah...it's already morning, I just had a wink and here comes the sun." I said to myselfself as I was shrugging off my blanket off me. With my loose t-shirt falling of my shoulder showing my white skin which was glowing by the sun rays. You could easily see my mole just above my neckline displaying my beauty as I was trying to bun my long black hair.

I got off the bed and headed towards the bathroom as it was almost time for work and I was yet ready.

Within 15 minutes I was out wrapped in the towel trying to dry my hair which was dripping slowly down my back.

"This is what happens when you stay alone...no one to prepare breakfast."I said this while tying up my pony tail and at the same time wearing the heels.

"there I'm ready."i said that while smiling. I had worn a blouse with skirt and a light makeup with my favourite Cobra perfume.

I rushed to the small kitchen grabbed some bread which I stuffed in my mouth took my handbag, phone with my keys and out of the house.

While I was walking out of my small apartment building I saw the landlady coming in through the main gate.

"Shit, it's better I go from the backdoor or this woman will just ask about the rent of which I don't have it right now.'

Ichanged my direction and was heading out when i was getting a phonecall from Mom.

"Maureen dear, something terrible has happened...come home."

The phone hanged before i could say anything to my mom. I rushed towards the gate with all my strength.

As I was rushing down the street a car appeared from nowhere and stopped just at me. Two body build men came out of the car and pointed a gun towards my belly to pull me inside it.

"please cooperate ma'am" were the words

I looked to my right and left for some help but not even a stray cat was seen. It was indeed a quiet street.

I tried to trick them but of no use. The men in suit seemed professionals.

With no hope around i gave in and sat in the car. The car was indeed a luxurious and a spacious one. This had me really confused. Mom called saying something terrible has happened and now this. I thought to myself as I was having a gut feeling that something more extreme is going to happen.

All I could think of is maybe they got the wrong person.I tried telling the big guy sitting opposite me, but all he said was

"please relax ma'am, we can not be mistaken. this is an order from my boss so please stay quiet you will know once we reach our destination."

His words made me confused. I started to get more scared just thinking of the worst.

Suddenly the car pulled over.

My worst fear

As I was being escorted, a sudden thought brought fear in me. l just hoped that this has nothing to do with him.

The place I was brought was indeed a splendid building. I had always admired those who worked for such big companies and dreamed of working with Asia's top companies.

"I don't know what's going on but I just hope.."I was disturbed in my thought by a sudden voice break "ma'am please enter the elevator."said the big guy.

All this time I made sure to be elegant and didn't show how excited I was seeing the surrounding. All of it was very pleasing to my eyes. "I wish I could work for such a company" I thought to myself.

"ting" came the sound once we reached our floor.

A beautiful young lady came over to my side.

"Ma'am, My boss had been waiting for you. please come this way."were her polite and sweet words.

I tried to delicately talk to her" excuse me, sorry I didn't get your name but please hear me out. I think your big guys over here have mistaken me for someone else. You see I'm already way too late for my job and.."she intervened before I could even complete my worries.

"I am sorry Madam Maureen for my late introduction. I am Sylvia Thompson. Please relax you will shortly understand what is going on."

My eyes literally popped out. I was like she knows my name. This had me more confusing.

She indicated with her hand to proceed ahead. I had no choice. Anyway if I find anything fishy I'll just scream. I thought to myself.

As I walked towards the door ahead of me, I noticed two big initials on the wall to my right encraved with 'SK'. "Mmh I think I have heard of it before. where was it?" I thought to myself.

"Ah just let it be." I concluded.

I reached to the door took a deep breath and helped myself in.

As I entered to my amazement i saw a familiar face sitting on the magnificent couch on my right side of the spacious office. And on the exact opposite of me stood a man of a about six feet tall smoking cigar. Although I could only see his back from where I was, he indeed had an elegant style in him.

Suddenly my feet froze when I recognized the familiar man sitting on the couch. I tried to maintain myself as my fears came true. "He must have done something again." I thought

Then I recalled the morning call that I had received from my mom earlier this morning. " Now what did he do, I am sick and tired of him always getting into trouble. Either way I don't plan to clean his mess up this time." I said to myself.

" It seems this time he has really screwed it up. The way I am brought here seems like a big trouble." I continued thinking as I was approaching the couch.

The encounter

"My dear, it was not my fault this time." were my father's word as I was approaching him." believe me I'm not to be blamed this time.

I took a deep sigh and in a calm and low tone asked "what happened now dad? what did you do this time?"

"My sweet daughter listen to me first. The thing is tha.." dad was trying to explain when I heard a voice break behind me,"Ehem Miss Miller"

I turned back and almost lost my balance when I suddenly just took hold of his arms trying not to fall and maintain my posture. His arms were really muscular.

"I'm sorry"were the words I spouted as I tried to fix my skirt.

As I looked towards the person standing In front of me, he was indeed a very handsome young man. He was tall enough that I can hear his heartbeat if I were to hug him. He had worn a black suit with black leather shoes. I could sense he had a strong personality." but wait wasn't he near the window a minute ago?" I thought.

I was standing there when I very closely observed he had red eyes. I was really captivated into them. My eyes were not averting from his when suddenly I heard,"Miss Miller this way." His hand were directing me to his table which was on the left side of the office.

I looked at my dad and then looked at the guy and moved forward to the table and took a seat on the comfy chair beside it.The table was indeed neat and clean, when I noticed some scribbles engraved beautifully on a piece of wood kept on his desk. It read out A.Smith and below it was engraved the designation which read C.E.O

I got terrified and started making the worst assumptions in my head that what could have my dad done to the CEO of this company. Did dad kill or rob the guy I thought. But that is not possible, we would not be sitting here so calmly like this.And it's not like dad would do something like that but who knows I thought.

"Ehem Mr Miller would you like to tell your daughter or should I?" were the words of 'The CEO'. He had a smirk in his face which gave me a chill through my body.

My dad who was sitting opposite me seemed hesitant to say anything to me. "dad please tell me what's going on what have you done this time round?" I asked. I couldn't care less if he gets into trouble. But I am doing all of this was because of only one person in my life who has always been a support throughout. My Mom. Its not like I hated him but he is the type to create problems and escape without sorting it.

"My dear please forgive me for telling you this and I know you will hate me for it, but my daughter you will have to marry this young man sitting over here." were the words of the father who raised me.
