Adam’s POV…
I won’t have offered her the deal if I didn’t have much of a choice, I knew that I needed someone before the holiday and I knew that she is the best option, I had thought about it for a while and I knew that it would be the best to make this decision, when my father informed me that this is something I have to do, and I knew better than anyone, my father would never go back on his decision and I know that when he makes up his mind; he is going to make sure that I listen to him; he will make sure that I do as he says, and I know whether happens when I don’t listen to him.
He would take the company away from me; I have worked hard toward this company: and I know that it won’t have been the Sam way it was if not for the work I had done on it and I had to continue being the head of it.
I shook off the thought and I looked back at Amaya.
“At what cost, Adam, what do I have to do: sleep with you.” She asked with a for wok on her face.
“You need to get married to me.”
“You have to be joking, you are joking, right.” She asked, and she looked at me, she knew that there were no jokes about it, she knew that I was serious.
I thought of asking some other females like my exes, but I know there is a reason that I left them and there is a reason that I can’t be with them, I would not be able to tolerate them and Amaya didn’t seem like someone who was after the money, that would pester me to give her attention and that would ask me to stay with her at all times and that would blackmail to get her expensive things even though I didn’t care about that.
I wanted someone that I can tolerate and Amaya has something that I want, she had a relationship with Harry and I want to find out how deep the relationship was, and when I had come in, and I saw the pictures on her table, I knew that she had a very serious relationship with the bastard and I need her to find out more about him.
I had a smile on my face when I turned to her; I would do anything to convince her and being with her, it’s just going to piss off Harry, I knew that much.
“I’m going to give you two a day to think about it.”
“You can’t just ask me or marry you for some money; to be with you for my career; I am not that kind of person and not even think that I would be having a thought about it because I won’t, I don’t want to.” She gritted through her teeth.
How did someone like her end up being with Harry; how did he get her, and how did she allow herself to fall in love with him, I know that eh didn’t sue money to get her; she is not that kind of girl, so what made her even agree to marry him, I needed to find out that? She no idea the kind of information that she holds, and I am willing to find out about it.
I had a smile on my face, and she looked at me with a frown on her face, waiting for me to tell her that I was lying about it and I have joking.
“It’s going to be a business deal, we can talk about everything else, the do and do nuts and the things they are allowed, but you have two days to think about it Amaya and not a second later; the deal would be off, I would offer you whatever you want, and you would be my wife for a year.” I said.
That is enough time to convince my father that being married is not good for me and the company, and I am nothing like my brother, and she didn’t have to worry, a year is more than enough or get all the information that I need to convince everyone that I am not a play boy, and I am good for the company, it’s enough to make sure that everything is going to be fine, and to prove to everyone that I don’t care about being like my brother.
My brother who has not done anything good to make sure that everyone is good, he doesn’t even care about and yet father cared about him, father loves him while I carved for his attention all of the time, I wish it wasn’t like that.
I shook off the thought and I turned to look at Amaya, she didn’t seem happy.
“Two days Amaya.” I said again before I headed toward her and I handed her over my card, she knows where she can meet me when she is ready, and she call me when she is ready; either way I would be waiting to her.
I know I am about to do anything just to make sure she will agree to this and I have a couple of ideas to make her agree to this, I did need her.
Not only that, but I quickly walked out of the house leaving her alone with her thoughts, when I headed into my car I pulled out my phone and I saw a message from my brother and my father; they are asking for me to come home as quickly as I can, and the message was sent three minutes ago, I quickly replied and I drove away.
I had a frown on my face when I drove to the house; I had notice that there are two unfamiliar cars in the front porch and I knew this can’t be good, what did they need that they had to call me.
I headed into the house; I mother the dinning room was filled with people and I didn’t even understand why we have some guests here and why was I required. I walked into the room and I found some familiar people sitting on the chair.
The first person I have noticed was Laura, she was a woman that I dated in the last she falls in love with me and I didn’t want to be with her: she tried to get her father to talk me into being with her and I didn’t let that happen; she always wanted to be with me and I hated it, dating her was a big mistake and I realized that two days of being with her, and she didn’t want to let me go.
I hate to resort to some measures to make sure that she stayed away from me, I was this close to having a restraining order against her.
I looked back at my parents and my brother with his wife; they did like her form some reason; maybe because she is fake like them, and she knew how to pretend to have the perfect family to the outside world.
“Adam, you are here.” Laura smiled.
“What are you doing here?” I asked, I didn’t want to sound rude; I know that her father and mine are good friends and I didn’t want to upset my father.
“She came to see you, I told her ha about your little situation, and she offered to help.” Mom smiled.
I knew what she was talking about and if she thinks I will marry Laura, then she is mistaken, I would be stuck with her for the rest of my life, and I am never going to be happy; I knew that much, she is going to always she there, and I would be forced to be with her; my mother will make sure I stay with her, I knew that I could kill myself if I was forced to stay with someone like her.
A chuckle escaped my lips when I realized that mom was not joking, she wanted me to do this, they allowed my brother to someone that he wanted, and he was never forced and here I am being forced to be with someone that I don’t want.
“I am not doing that, I underrated that you guys love Laura, but I don’t, and I will never will, and I will say this dinner we are having is not going to end well, I want everyone to be leave.”
“Be respectful Adam. Laura came all the way from New York, and she came here for you, and I want you to treat her good.” Mom said and I rolled my eyes at her.
“I have found someone to marry, someone that I love, and we have even together for the last five years, so you can tell your darling Laura to leave.” I yelled before I headed out of the room.
