OUR ABERRANT MARRIAGE

chapter 7

Priya's pov:

"Marry me" his voice was running inside my head like a broke tape recorder. Am I dreaming or did I landed in some novel where typical contract marriage plot turns into a eomantic lovestory.
Wait I thought he was married but I guess he isn't.  Because he won't ask me if he already has a wife. Or will he???

"You...aren't you married already?" I asked, trying my best to sound intimidating.

Immediately he scrunched his face as if he despised the very idea of being married. But then why is he asking me to get married.

"No. I'm not. And decide fastly I have no time to waste.If you are gonna say no,the door is on the right." He said.

He is really infuriating. He is talking all nonsense. What was I talking and where did he lead this conversation to??

First he proposes me like he don't want a no from me and now saying that I can leave if I dont accept it.
Such a jerk!!!

"Excuse me but all I wanted from you was to arrange a meeting between me and the chairman." I said stiffly as I  felt the chillness emiting from the ice figure sitting infront of me.

"If you marry me I will make sure your problem will be solved." He said.

"But...its not nice for someone to marry like this. The contract marriage sounds better when we read rather we experience." I said puffing my cheeks in anger as I am finding this situation very ...new, I guess as I am finding this so odd.

"Who said its a contract marriage?" He said frowning his brows.

So...this marriage is real. Really the real one. This handsome dude wants to marry me. Grasping the information made my heart skip a beat making me realise this could be experienced in real too.

I cleared my throat in an attempt to make my mind clear ,get rid of this insane and impulsive thought of marrying him. Get a grip priya!!!

"We will marry for real? But why don't you just help me. Please!!!" I said pouting my lips when I realised that i immediately pursed my lips.

"I believe in give and take. Now ball is in your court. Take it or throw it." He told in a careless manner.

"I...I agree." I said as I am really in need of their help.

I thoughtd of all pros and cons. Even if Dr.Vedank can arrange a meeting I haven't thought of ways to convince him.
Even Nanna couldn't crack that deal and I really and not that skilled so I  should be self aware.
And this guy assured me that he would definetely help me...I couldn't help but believe his words. Its not like he is a cheat who would con people.
We are from the same profession so I should bring myself to trust him.
Atleast I can be confident that we will save ourselves from this bankruptcy.
I should do it...for my family ,I thought .
Don't tell me you aren't doing that to marry the guy who made your heart skip a beat.

If we have met in another situation may be I could have drooled over him.

As if you aren't drooling now, my subconscious mocked me

"Ok now give me your mobile number so I can contact you." He said.

Immediately I gave him my number as it wasn't a big deal. He is going to be my husband and I'm marrying.
I guess I am now taken....my thought haulted when I heard his voice.
What blew my mind was not his voice but his words.
"You can leave now" He said.

What the heck!!!!

I guess I'm gonna use the word jerk all my life from now.

I scoffed at the guy who was behaving so rude with me  and I'm no more a stranger but his to be wife. I guess none ever taught him to be obedient with his wife.
