From Hate Flourishes Love

Secret Identity

Zander's POV

It has been almost about a month since I signed the agreement to get married so I could secure my shares in the company, but things were starting to look up.

Kai (my supposed fiancé) hadn't responded to my parents' foolish agreement yet. If he knew what was good for him, he would keep his gold digger claws far away from my family as possible.

Even if he agrees to this am going to make his life hell. Which idiot would agree to marry someone they haven't even met? Well other than me of course, but I am securing my birthright.

If I hadn't merged my company with my parents, I wouldn't have had to accept this silly offer.

"Do you want my number? "

Breaking from my train of thought, I looked around for the voice I saw the girl who had just put her all into giving me a b**wljob.

"We could go to that new restaurant that opened in Manhattan, I heard the food that it's great".
Did she really just suck my co*k so I would take her out to a fancy restaurant?

"Are you paying? " I want to see how she reacts. As expected she looks confused and angry. I had never made a date to pay the bill before and I never will, but it was a fun test, one that she was failing.

I grab my wallet and take out a prepaid credit card.

"This will be enough to cover the bill at the restaurant," I hand her the card , and adjust my zipper. I open the door to let her out of my office.

"When should I meet you again? " She asks, leaning against my office door . It must be clear that I'm not into her.

I haven't been romantically interested in anyone since Elizabeth. Plus, I didn't want to date anyone only interested in the things I could get them.

After telling her that she need not come back, she stormed out of the building. Calling me an asshole before leaving the top floor.

Sending a text to my PA, I told her not to let her back in my office or anywhere near the company walls for that matter.

After a few minutes, I got a text back from her saying she would send the girl's picture over to security.

Ms Jones my personal assistant technically was the executive assistant. Her assistant was my PA but begged her to handle my private matters as well so my 'questionable' lifestyle wouldn't leak to the press. She work with my parents from the time they only had the building space, she was practically family. For years she worked with my parents in a position that didn't match her qualifications, in exchange for 2% of their shares in the company. Her wife was our family doctor and they had a daughter in her freshman year of high school.

JJ ( Jane Jones ) was a big part of my life growing up she would help me do my homework when my parents were busy in meetings. I had come to know her as somewhat of a second mother, even if at times she acted like an annoying sibling.

It was currently 4, and realizing that I had a meeting at 5 pm. I decided to get something sweet to eat before. I headed for the café, the very place Kai had spilt coffee on me. Deep down, I knew wasn't going for the coffee or pastries, but I didn't wasn't going to admit that.

For some odd reason, I feel attached to the place. The second time I when back he gave me a bagel and coffee at the house and kept saying sorry for ruining my suit. I smiled and told him no problem, I knew his ploy of trying to butter me up and get me to like him before we officially meet as fiancés. However, his plan had failed as I was already one step ahead of him. I'm was used to his kind now, and their mind games.
