Bella pov

The Cullens were looking at me in shock and surprise. I saw that there were two more people with them. They had red eyes unlike the golden eyes of the Cullens. The two unknown vampires fit the description of a cowboy and cowgirl perfectly. They were both blond and gave me a big smile.

I also noticed that the two Cullens who I hated the most were not there and those were the controlling twins. Alice and Edward

I sighed and straightened my back. I plastered a fake smile on my face and said, "does it really make a difference what I get you or are there any preferences? "

They just stared at me. I sighed and snapped my fingers,"please I don't have all day, u know?"

"Bella " the woman I loved more than my own mother said in a teary voice.

I looked at her,"how are u esme?"

She jumped and hugged me causing me to go stiff. I relented after a while and hugged her.

Esme pulled away smiling slightly just as my manager, Jordan came running,"is there a problem, ma'am?" he asked looking at me.

I shook my head,"no Jordan. Please go back to your job. Everything is under control"

He nodded and went back

"why did he call you ma'am?" Rosalie asked me surprisingly in a soft tone.

"I own this club"

We stared at Bella in shock. Did she really say that she owned this club??

She smirked at our expressions and opened her mouth to say something when the main door of the club opened and someone shouted, "isa"

She turned to face the guy who came in. He was above six feet tall, blond hair, tan skin and fit. He hugged Bella who smiled and hugged him back. An unusual spark of jealousy burnt in me. The major also rattled in his cage not liking Bella in another man's arms. What was going on?

Bella pulled away from the man and asked him,"what r u doing here, Bradley"

He smiled and said,"can't I come to see my favourite businesswoman and the sexiest girl in Manhattan?" Bella rolled her eyes and hit him on the shoulder. "ok ok no need to get violent woman. I came to invite you to the dinner tomorrow. But just to warn you Frederick will be there with the slut of the century. "

Bella stiffened, "I don't know if I will attend then. He won't leave me alone and his slut will glare daggers at me " she said causing me to stiffen too. No one would touch my Bella. Whoa my Bella what was I thinking? Peter smirked at me. I narrowed my eyes at him and he coughed out a laugh. Bella glanced at him and raised an eyebrow. That guy Bradley put his hand on her shoulder and she turned to him, "there us only one way of showing him that what you wanted from him was pure business and prove it to the media also that you and Frederick were nothing but a rumour. "

"and what would that be?" Bella asked

"get a boyfriend.. A fake one. A guy who would act like your boyfriend in front of the people. It will help your image also. At least people will stop seeing you as the heartless bitch you portray to be"

"I am not portraying anything I am not. It helps people to know that they can no longer mess with me and get out unscathed. " Bella said glancing at us pointedly causing all of us to shift uncomfortably.

"then to, I want you at the dinner party with a date. Also it would help if he was smart and had a good background. Not a difficult thing for you as nearly every man wants to have you on his arm and in his bed. " he said wiggling his eyebrows. "u can turn a gay man straight sweetheart"

Bella chuckled and said,"if that was the case, I would have turned you long back, baby" and winked at him.

He laughed and kissed her cheeks,"the media is outside. If you have a guy now, it will help better than bringing him directly for the date. The media will go wild seeing you with a guy. They will at least stop showing you as the single, sexy bitch who cares for no one. Trust me. It will help your image with the contracts you are signing next few weeks with Simon. The man's wife controls his decisions and she does not let single woman near her husband. And also u do need a guy. "

"I don't. "

"as a date u do. "

She sighed. He hugged her and left. She turned to us. "which of you both is single? " she asked me and Peter.

I stood up. She was shocked but covered it up. "mind being my fake boyfriend for a few weeks?"
