"What do you mean I have to find myself a husband in order to fully take over the business?" I spat angrily at my mother, who just sat there without a care in the world sipping her tea.
My name is Avalon Destro, I should've been the second female Le...
I am currently having a silent mental breakdown due to this idiot's request, I am also sitting completely still in room full of people having this mental breakdown.
"So.. so what exactly are you suggesting?" I manage to get the words out my mouth forming a proper question.
"Sigh, can we get some space so we could discuss my request?" Cohen asks everyone in the room without taking his eyes off of me.
I see my best friend looking at me in the corner of my eyes I just nod silently telling her it's ok. When the room was empty I was finally able to breathe. While replaying the events in my head I heard him shuffling around.
"I don't want this marriage to actually be a contractual one I want to get to know you better than anyone and fall in love with you over time." He said while throwing himself and I a drink, when he walks over to me and places the glass in front of me I down it one go.
"So you're trying to say you want an actual marriage ahahahaha?" I question him while laughing still not believing him for one minute.
"Sigh, you may think that I'm the bad guy but I've always had a crush on you but unfortunately instead of growing a pair I came up with this plan instead, I'll still sign your contract once you sign mines and who knows maybe in time we'll tear up those contracts." He says with a chuckle at the end of his speech, I sit there looking him in the eyes trying to see if he's lying or not and his eyes carry sincerity but something else I don't understand.
"Ok I'll give you a chance but anytime I realise you're trying to rob me I will kill you on spot, deal?" I tell him while extending my hand showing that I agree to his terms but instead of a handshake he pulls out a stunning sterling silver green peridot engagement ring and place it on my ring finger.

"Oh so you had a ring on you not knowing my answer? That's rather cocky." I say while buzzing my assistant telling her to send everyone back in.
"Ok let's sign these documents and get this marriage on the way." I say still admiring the ring wondering how he knew my birthstone color.
"Oh and you'll be moving in with me I'll call my house and let them know to expect my new fiancé tonight and by the way I'm not wearing the ring in public til you publicly propose so this can stay with you." I say to him whilst taking of the ring, I could've sworn I saw a hint of pain in his eyes but as soon as it was there it was gone, I shrug it off and get up to leave.
"See you tonight my love ahahah" he says with a laugh as I'm walking out my office.
5 hours later at Kernice's Apartment
"Who the fuck does he think he is with this request of a real relationship and a child? He's mad I tell you guys." I say to my friends while pacing back and forth with a bottle of vodka in my hands.
"I want a back ground check on him and his whole family done plus put two guards on him can't have my enemies killing my soon to be husband before me ahahahaha" I say while turning to see my friends looking at me like I have four heads.
"Babe don't you think you had enough to drink that's your second bottle and you didn't even share the first bottle with us." Denesyia says this while trying to get the bottle out my hand.
"Ok ok I'll stop drinking but I'm not going home tonight he's probably there already." I was practically begging my friends but these deceitful bitches walked me straight to my car and had my driver drop me home. I'm gonna kill them.
"I'm a savage, classy bougie rachet!" I was singing rachet while stripping to go take a bath forgetting that I no longer live alone due to my drunken state.
"Ummmmm is this your way of getting to know each other, because if it is I really can't complain ahahahah" I heard a deep voice say from behind me in the dark, almost as if a light bulb was switched on I screamed and ran into the shower hearing laughter whole closing the door.
"What the fuck are you doing in my room I don't remember saying you could sleep in here." I spat trying to figure out if I should shoot him yes or no for seeing my naked body.
