HIS HIRED BRIDE

CHAPTER - 13

"SOMETIME LOSING IS ALSO GOOD."

AVA WILSON P.O.V

"What is it?" Marcello stood rigidly on his sit and gave me a serious look.

"Lily.." I defeatedly spoke.

He narrowed his eyes at me, more interested in "What happened?"

"She...she....ahhh" I cleared my throat as my emotion started coming up again.

"Don't behave like a sore banana Ava." I snapped at myself.

"I want you to help her before I sign this contract." I politely spoke.

"And why would I do that? What if you back out after that?" He frowned.

"I won't." I snapped at him fisting my palm.

"She needs your help. I....I..need your help. She's currently in the hospital." I slowly utter gulping my teary voice.

He got silent and stared at me with his calculating eyes, making me more nervous.

He took out his cell phone and dialed some number without removing his gaze from me.

How can he do it? Does he have some kind of superpower? That's why he looked so handsome. It's impossible for humans to look this good.

"Come, Let's Go." He called out, making me out of my pathetic thoughts.

But I look at him in confusion "What about my lunch. I am hungry." I accidentally spoke out without remembering whom I was talking to. But it was too late.

I bit my tongue and hurriedly stood up "Let's Go." I muttered picking up my bag but he didn't bulge out from his seat.

"I don't want my fiànce to starve." He smirked looking at me and my face got more red. I hold my cheeks to stop myself from blushing.

Did he just call me his fiànce?

Like fiànce? Fiànce?

Just then the waiter came with our food and put it in front me.

I look at him only to lock my hazel one with his ocean blue.

"Where are we going?" I asked for the hundredth time as we made our way out of the diner.

But he kept walking and stopped in front of black Ferrari, making my eyes wide. I choose to shutup my mouth because I fear I will slip something which will made me kill myself.

The ballet handed the key to Marcello and he opened the door before sitting inside. I stood there like a statue not knowing what was happening.

"Do I have to write an invitation for you to sit?" He rolled the glass window narrowing his eyes.

I ran to the other side and sat inside. A sigh escaped my lips, how comfortable the seat was. His cologne was all over his car making me inhale a fresh, hefty smell of mint and sandalwood.

"Where are we going?" I tried to ask again but he tapped his long Italian finger on the steering wheel.

Italian finger?

"What the hell is wrong with me?" I pinched myself to stop thinking about him.

He took a right turn catching me off guard. I fell upon him, making my head hit his arms.

"Ahhh."A scream left my mouth and he stopped the car.

"Are you stupid? Don't you know how to wear a seat belt?" He snapped at me.

"I forgot." I glared at him.

"Forgot my foot." He uttered, holding my shoulder and carefully tucked the seat belt from the corner, clasping it. His breathe hit my chin, making my heart start beating.

I turned my head toward the right, ignoring him "I can do it."

But he didn't listen and made me wear it. "Now behave like a grown up." He spoke and looked up.

BAD MOVE.

Our faces were inches apart making me stop breathing. I gulp down my saliva and his adam apple also blobs, making us both release our breathe at the same time hitting each other face.

Suddenly a loud horn buzzed from behind, making us both jerk away from each other. I turned my face and looked outside and he started driving. The air inside the car can be cut out with a sharp paper.

Awkward!

After twenty minute, the car stopped outside the hospital, and I looked at him "Why are we here?"

He stepped out of the car and I followed him going inside the hospital. Dr. Parker was already standing at the entrance. He ran towards us "Mr. Trocelli...." He greeted extending his hand but Marcello didn't even look at him which made me scoff.

Arrogant Ass.

I smiled at Dr. Parker "Hi!." He nodded at me "Ava, good to see you."

"Come, let's get inside my office."

"I have already called the doctor. They will be here first thing in morning." Dr. Parker informed us, making Marcello nod.

"I want all of them to give their best Parker." He orders making Dr. Parker nod his head in yes.

"She's my mother-in-law, and if anything goes wrong, I won't spare you. You know how things work for me." Marcello took the paper weight and rolled it with his fingers. As if he did not just threaten a doctor.

I look at him with wide eyes as he casually sat on the chair and gave his all attention to the stupid paper weight ball.

Mother -in- Law?

Where did that come from?

I didn't even sign the contract till now?

"I need to talk to my fiànce in privateq."

Again that phrase.

Fiànce.

"Yes...yes..." Dr. Parker replied going out of the office but not before giving me stinky eyes.

What did I do now?

"What is wrong with you? You can't call me your fiànce." I gritted my teeth.

He turned his chair and directly faced me ignoring my words. I was still glaring at him "Your Aunt will have her surgery tomorrow, first thing in the morning, and then she will be shifted to the VIP ward and start her chemo." He softly spoke, making my eyes softened.

It looks like he has turned three sixty degrees or he was not the same man who was ordering the doctor a few minutes ago.

"Now can we finish signing the contract."

I nodded my head and he took out the paper from his suit inner pocket making me raise my brows.

Impressive!

I took the pen from the table and asked him "Where do I have to sign?"

He turned the paper and pointed it out. I was ready to sign it when he stopped my hand "Ava, are you sure? Because after signing this there will be no out" He questioned me but his eyes were telling other stories.

He was scared, he was scared what if I backed out. His breath stopped and he clenched his fist in a tight grip. And that made my heart skip.

He was thinking about me before him.

He was asking me if I was okay?

I nodded and signed the contract with a smile. I don't know what the future holds for me, but for now, I'm happy with my decision.

He took the pen from my hand and signed his side.

"Thank you Ms. Wilson." He said, shaking my hand. After reading the whole contract and double checking everything he tucked it carefully inside his suit.

"I must go now." He said standing up.

"Okay. I'm also getting late." I replied picking up my purse.

"Great, I'll drop you off." He insisted.

"No, that's fine, I have to see Lily first. You will get late." I informed him.

"Are you sure? I can wait for you."

"I'll be fine." I assured him.

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

I waved goodbye to him as he opened his car door. I was not expecting him to wave back. But to my surprise he smiled and waved, making me laugh.
