"I will marry him." These words shocked everyone."Are u serious?You are not joking,right?",said Juli. "I am serious. I will marry  your grandson. " Juli went back home with her family. She was really happy. "Ela, Why did you agree?", asked Harriet. " Granny, I want to move on. I can't live in the past always. "" That's great. "

The next day, Ela went to Daniel's office.  His schedule was full today. There is no way she can meet him today. She went to James."Mr.Smith,Do you have time.I have something to say.""Of course, Sister-in-law. "" Don’t call me that. "" Why? You are going to marry my brother, right. "" Yes, I  am. I have somethings to disscuss with him. But he is not free today. " " Then go to his home. I will give you the spare keys.""That's not appropriate. I can't do that. " "He has a busy schedule for the next 2 weeks. It’s the only way you can talk to him. Take this key and think about it. " Ela thought about it. She decided to go to his house.But before going, she went grocery shopping. She went to his house.She prepared dinner for him.She made mac and cheese and cheesecake. Though it is not right to come to someone's house like this and cook, specially your boss, she still came.She just came. She didn’t think about the consequences. It's  9 pm. Daniel came home and saw the lights on.He was confused. He thought a thief might  have broken in.He went to the kitchen to grab something. There he saw Ela sleeping on the dining table.

"Ela wake up," he said softly.Ela was fast asleep. He took her to the guest room. After that he went to take a shower.After sometime Ela woke up and saw herself on the bed.She was confused." How did I get here?"she thought. She went to the kitchen and saw Daniel. "You are a brave woman Ms.Jones.Coming to your boss's house just for talking to him. You know I can fire you. ",he said with a smirk. "I know that you won’t fire me. " " Where does this confidence come from? " "Well,you won’t fire your fiancee. " "You are right. I can't. But why did you agree?Do you like me?" Ela started laughing. "That was a very good joke, Mr Smith.I don’t love you. We will be in a contract marriage. " "Ok. What points should be in the contract?" " We will be married for a year.After a year we will divorce. You don’t have to give me any money. Just don’t fire me after the divorce. Our marriage will be hidden. No one except our family and close friends will know about it. "" That's it. Nothing  else. Nothing about skinships or being in a relationship? "" It will be a fake marriage. We have to pretend in front of our families that we are a happily married couple. So no cheating on each other.""Ok, then Tommorow come to my office to sign the contract. "" No, this contract will not be in paper." "What do you mean?! "" The contract will be only in our minds.There will be no documents about it. " "That's ridiculous. "  " I will tell you the reason behind this.Actually my grandma is suffering from cancer.It’s in last stage.She only  has 8 months to live. She wants to see me getting married and live happily. " "Ok. I am hungry. Let's have dinner together."" I am really sorry. I have to go. My grandma is alone at home. There are other things that I have to discuss with you but it’s getting late. " " Take this. This is my business card. Call me. " "Ok ". Ela was shocked. This is the first time someone gave his number to her.A wave of happiness flowed in her.She doesn’t know why. But she was very happy.
