The Billionaire's Proposal

Familiar Face

I stared at the all too familiar building in front of me. My feet were glued to the ground as Adrian came to stand next to me.

"It's going to be alright." Adrian assured as he interlocked our hands. My brown eyes moved to look into Adrian's blue eyes.

His simple touch caused an unwanted feeling of electricity to flow through my arm all the way to the rest of my body. The comforting gesture made my insecure and fear to go disappear.

"Let's do this." I state before we head towards the entrance of Jacob Corporations.

Adrian didn't let go of my hand but instead held it tighter.

"Adrian." Damian's voice stated. I could feel Adrian tense up but I gave him a reassuring squeeze and smile.

Damian's gaze turned to look at me. His eyes ran over my body hungrily causing me to give him a disgusted look. "I really shouldn't have worn this pencil skirt." I mentally tell myself.

"We came here to talk about the transitioning process not for you to check out my wife." Adrian growls.

"Future wife." Damian corrects. "Jane is your fiancé not your wife at least not yet. She can still change her mind about marrying you, right Jane?"

Damian turned to look at me and I felt like I was shrinking under his piercing gaze.

"I could." I reply gaining a worried look from Adrian as a smirk formed on my lips. "But I love Adrian and I don't want any other guy but him."

Damian's smile turns into a frown as Adrian displays a smudged look.

"So shall we get started. We don't want to be here any longer than we have to be." Adrian states. Damian leads us towards the meeting room.

The white fogged stained glass doors open to reveal a series of familiar faces; Mr. Jacob, Mrs. Jacob, and their servants.

"Jane?" Mrs. Jacob asks alarmed. Her face pales as her green eyes stare back at me in disbelief.

"It's Ms. Hamilton to you." I respond with confidence. Adrian's hand that was now placed on my lower back made my confidence boost.

"Future Mrs. McKeller." Adrian added causing me to smile.

Mr. and Mrs. Jacob's blank expressions caused a smirk to appear on my face.

"Now, how about we get started with this transition." Adrian states with a smirk of his own.

"So, Mr. Jacob and his son have agreed to hand the company to Adrian McKeller, CEO of McKeller Industries." Mr. Jacob's lawyer states.

"I can't do this." Mrs. Jacob announced before standing up and walking out of the room.

"Guess she can't stand the fact that we'll be the owners of the company now." Adrian whispers.

"Guess so." I reply. James walks into the room and I give him a greeting smile.

"Sorry for the delay." He apologizes. "Shall we continue."

James takes the seat next to Adrian and whispers something into his ear. Adrian simply nods before turning his attention back to the Jacob's lawyer.
