Chapter 2
Amelia’s POV: .
Still in a confused era on what footsteps I would take next concerning my dad’s medical treatment and other expenses that would soon arise in my life either sooner or later A lot of thought about how I could get my dad’s treatment fee was all over me. My dad’s medical bills were out of this world where am I to get the whole sum of 50k$ for treatment when no one is sure if he would survive or still die out in my thoughts I have no one I could just possibly meet again unless I go do a stripper job for a night with a CEO which I wasn’t ready to trade out my body even if I said I could do anything for my father to be better. But the same thought of getting to meet my boss at the office for the loan assistance was everything that my head could think of at that great point.
” Hmmmm. What if I just take pride away asking for a helping hand? Mr Smith instead of me just staying here doing nothing.” I said while sitting on the mini sofa that I placed in my mini apartment I stayed alone. Just that I wasn’t comfortable with staying alone due to the price of the rent which was all on my head and other things that also came up with
I just took great courage and went to the bathroom took a bath and put up my work uniform. I put on my plain navy blue skirt with a white shirt with a flat shoe and picked up my handbag wearing a beautiful perfume.
” Hope this works out,” I said walking out of my apartment with a deep breath in. I took a taxi straight to my workplace where I just sat down in the rreceptionist’soffice.
” Miss Amelia, what are you doing here with a fragile look?” Mr Smith came out of his office as I sat down closer to his office. As I saw him I immediately knelt with tears in my eyes holding up on his legs with a calm look.
” Miss Amelia stop this ” he quickly said as he tried removing my hands away from his leg that I held so tightly with tears.
” Can we meet in my office?” He asked immediately as he left me all alone in the receptionist’s office close to his own office. I quickly walked into his office and saw my boss sitting already on his chair in the office with his phone.
” Can I take a seat, sir?” I asked politely as I cleaned my eyes and tears.
” Yes,” he nodded positively.
” Thank you, Mr. Smith,” I said adjusting the chair backward before I sat down in it pulling it forward closer to the deskanlookingmith I kind of behaved shyly putting my head down as Mr. Smith just couldn’t take away his eyes from me which looked weird to me since he hadn’t done that before.
” So why did you behave like a beggar outside? Why didn’t you just come in ?” Mr Smith asked me as he just removed his eyes from me and placed it into his phone I just wasn’t inquisitive about what he was doing on his phone.
” Am so sorry sir” I replied with a pause .” Sir, can I ask you for a favor?” I asked with a little smirk to melt out his heart.
“Go ahead,” he said leaving the phone to look at me as he gave a smirk adjusting his green color suit.
” Sir my dad is sick and he needs money for his treatment and a lot of bills are pilled up on my family’s head making us accept the fact we are bankrupt at this moment and I have no one to go to, ” I said adjusting back to the chair and kneeling to the floor as I paused my statement. ” Mr Smith” he paused my statement as he came closer to me.
” Please stand up ” he gave me his hands in support for me to stand up and I immediately accepted his offer.
” Thank you s, ir,” I said as I stood up cleaning up my skirt that had a stain of dust from how I kneeled earlier.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Your welcome” Mt Smith smirked as he gazed at me with pus which I also gave the same reaction
He cleared up his throat and sat on his table looking at me” What if I ask you for something would you be able to give just to help your sick Father?” The question he asked was like a straight hit on my bone.
I looked at him eye ball to eye ball ” Yes sir I can do anything just to help my dad” I said giving a serious look and character to him with nothing like a smirk regarding my request.
” Okay then” Mr Smith just gave a little laugh at my answer and I just smirked.
How Mr Smith just behaved was not a part of him that I have ever seen before since I started working with him but he just behaved weirdly to me and his new laughing character was nothing to write positively about. Despite he was a middle-aged man he tried to behave much like a kid which couldn’t work out the cause of his age.
” Do you know my child? ” Mr Smith said as I nodded my head giving a ‘ NO’ gesture to what he asked of me.
” What does his son have to do with this Damn situation?” My conscience said as just stood right like one in a military.
” Sit” he pointed to the chair I sat on before. Immediately I sat down quietly with a smirk on my face I wear almost every time to address some issue and discussion.
” So I have this handsome young son with brown eyes ball a good height” I quickly interrupted his explanation as my stomach ached as he told me more about his son whom I hadn’t seen.
” Sorry to interrupt sir but please can you go straight to the main point about your son” I said giving my boss a slight bow just to give him the respect I think he needed at that particular time of my little rudeness.
My boss then gave me a serious look too sitting more comfortably and looking straight into my eyes” I want you to be a contract bride for my son and I give you the money” Mr Smith said as he looked at him with a calm look and ghost bumps filled up my body with those words I heard.
” Sorry sir please I don’t quite understand what you mean by me beginning a contract bride for your son,” I asked beginning so nervous and ghost bumps just kept on appearing more my skin harder which I wasn’t able to control.
” A contract bride like you would marry my son on contract based on the money” Mr Smith laid a reply to me with a smirk.
” What?” I asked and paused with a confused look this time and a scared feeling of what would happen next on this one.
” I don’t think there is something bad for you about becoming a Bride for us the family just get paid and be the wife to my son and play the wifey duty” Mr Smith’s words sounded quite unmatured to me at that moment.
” So I would get the money I want if I accept the offer,” I said wearing up a frown immediately.
” Just as you want daughter in law” As Mr Smith addressee me by that name I knew I had no other choice and since I need the money badly I just have two choices either I accept it or just generally decline it.
