Well miss gupta we are here to discuss the agreement between gupta corp and reed industries, on a more professional level. Said the man in a black suit looking like he was about to pull guns on me.
GASP was this the start of a romance
Probably not since i'm already engaged....
BUTTTT let me take you to my situation like 2 hours ago.
Sitting on this weirdly shaped hotel lobby couch was going to be THE end of me, I wasn't used to low quality furniture being the heiress of gupta corp and all.
A woman in all white walked in through the glass paned doors. (you know the kind which goes round and round, like you're on a teacup ride lol)
"miss gupta?",
"yup that me" i replied. "Your parents are waiting for you on the last floor," said the lady handing me a plain white card with a gold lotus carved onto it.
I walked into the elevator and pressed the top floor. The ride was excruciatingly boring and I couldn't help but let my mind wander.
Why tf did my parents wanna see me right now it had only been like what 4 months usually it takes around 8.
The doors of the elevator slid open revealing a slim glassed alley with a singular double door on the other side. Swiping the card I entered the room to see a large conference table with 2 lawyers on either side.
One lawyer who I recognized as our family lawyer sitting with my mom and dad and on the other side a tall dark mysterious lawyer sitting with Mr and Mrs reed? What were the reeds doing here?
The reeds aka gupta corps biggest competitors. Plus moms got complicated history with Miss reed. this was definetly a shock and it must have been visable on my face because mom gave me the "i'll explain just sit down" look.
They were both besties all through highschool and university, met their respective boyfriends together and had planned to start a company together, they even got pregnant together........
which lead to me and aiden reed 18 year old billionaires.
mom told me we used to be best friends when we were like what 12? I don't remember, how could i?
apparently something happened and they opened separate companies which both became big shots,
coincidences am i right.......
Since my mom and dad were both indian i had gained there honey brown eyes and REALLY straight hair like NO volume at all.
But talk about genes man reeds takes the cake here. The guy i was staring at was literally the definition of a greek god, blue eyes, black raven hair and a jawline that could probably even cut MY cardboard hair.
His eyes shifted to mine as I walked in through the door and I swear he looked SHOOK.
He probably recognized me, that glimmer of recognition was definitely there.
I walked over to my parents and took a seat never breaking eye contact. Girl you know i wasn't going down first. He finally pulled away and cleared his throat awkwardly.
"Alright miss gupta do you know why we've called you here today" said the lawyer sitting with Mr and Mrs reed.
"on the contrary i would like to know your name first" he searched my face for signs to see if i was flirting with him but i was just honestly tired of my mind referring to him as mr and mrs reed's lawyer so i gave him my best business face look (which was pretty damn solid) to let him know i was being completely serious.
" its mike, now the topic at hand, your engagement with mr reed"
" hmm hmm, WAIT WHAT" i replied looking dumb folded. Ususally on buisness meetings i was calm and collected BUT WHAT THE FUCK.
" yaa im not getting married to anyone sorry" i said regaining my composure.
" just hear us out honey" said my mom.
"Basically you and Aiden here will be "engaged" for lets say 6 months less? We'll finalize that if you agree, this is honestly just a show for the public since reed industries and gupta corp will be business partners now, you two do not have to interact at all in these 6 months you will just be living under the same roof. But trust me the house will be big enough that you 2 don't even have to see each other, you will however need to vacation together and share a room for show, you can switch after the paparatzzi leaves of course." said mike.
"wait give me a minute" i took a deep breath and though of what someone would say in this situtation. come on you've read so many wattpad books think of something.
"and if i wanna date someone?" i asked.
" either of you can see whoever you want thats not an issue just refrain from being spotted with them in public for 6 months" mike replied
"Ok and what's in it for me?"I replied. Aiden snickered, the nerve of that piece of
steak......... ok beef wellington then.
"A larger and more powerful empire for the both of you" replied my dad. "Just think of it like a vacation honey," said my mom.
" wait and after we split in 6 months how are we explaining it to the public" i asked, we will just state you 2 had personal issues and it wasn't working out but the two companies will still remain in partnership"
i thought it over, it didn't sound that bad and a vacation i could use one of those. I looked at aidens gorgeous (god i need to stop) blue eyes and said "has he agreed?".
" he had no choice it's either this or be disowned" Mr reeds responded, whew his parents really are from a novel.
"Ok fine but no contact whatsoever"
Aiden reached over to shake my hand "No contact whatsoever".
