Forced Love

Chapter 8 Undeniable

I turned to Grandma but I know that wasn't her voice. Someone came through the door way and it was grandpa. He nodded a hello to the guys but he didn't lose his sight towards me.

"Hello Katie." he said.

"Grandfather." I said.

"I was the one who arranged it, you are to listen to whatever I say because you are going to be the next heir to inherit my company." he said firmly. I was baffled by this, me the next heir, what about Jon?

"What about Jon?" I asked getting up. He gestured me into the living room and I went over to him angrily. He sat on his personal chair and put his hands on his knees ready to hear my complaints. Well if he's ready then I'll give it to him.

"What were you thinking? That I'm ready to take over Long Corp., ready to be married?" I asked. He kept a straight face and finally looked at me with strong eyes, usually they would scare mother and father and the rest of the family but I wasn't scared.

"The fact that you are not scared of me proves you are worthy of handling Long Corp." he said.

"Then why am I to be married?"

"You will need someone strong to guide you; the Summers and I have always been proud joyful friends. There grandfather and I arranged this, and I would like to carry that out as a friend." he said fiercely. As much as I hated this arrangement, I couldn't stop a friend's promise, even if I didn't know I was a part of it.

"Why me? Why not Jonathan? I'm not the oldest and the oldest should take over." he tensed up a bit when I asked and he hesitated upon answering me. "You will find out in the future but for now, you are to be engaged to those two boys of your choosing." he said as he got up and left me with my hands forming into a fist and trembling.

"Why does it have to be me?" I whispered.
