Contract Marriage; Fated Love

“We are very sorry, Miss Muxin. We will like to request that you increase your stay here by a week. Our top client whom you are designing for will be away on a business trip. He has requested we ask you to spend one more week.”

“But the duration of my work is a maximum of three weeks and it’s almost due.”

“We apologize for inconveniences, Miss. The client will love to see the design after it has been completed but he is to travel during the weekend. His fiancée alone can’t make the decision, it’s a joint decision. He promised to add extra money for you.”

“I don’t want your money. This is a breach of contract.”

“Yes, it is; that’s why we want to compensate you and make it up to you. Time is money and we understand that this one week will be keeping you from other jobs. He has promised to add five million dollars to the initial amount we offered you.”

A whopping sum of five million dollars! This was a nice bargain. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to spend an extra week for that great sum.

“The only problem will be Noah. I don’t know how to spend the next week out of his sight. He’s like air, he’s everywhere.”

“He will be a minor issue. Just live your normal life and whenever he confronts you, remember who you are. You are now a new Emily, a celebrated and famous designer. You can’t be afraid of him.”

“It’s easy for you to say because you don’t know how respected he is. He’s even more famous than Liu Yen in China.”

“Huh? Yeah, that’s true. I once heard of his fame here, I forgot. But that not withstanding. If anything happens, let me know. I will come and help you out.”

“You are really funny. Thanks for always having my back.”

“You have done well, dear child. You are a true child of your father.”

“Thanks Dad,” Tessy answered.

Filled with rage and hatred for Jayden, she had carried out her father’s instructions. She had gone ahead to start buying shares in the company and has acquired a large number of shares.

“I hope you will keep your promise, father.”

“Of course, I will. It’s a solemn promise.”

That morning, as she entered her father’s office and pledged her loyalty and willingness to join forces with him in order to take over Jace group, he made her a promise.

“Once we clench power, and the company becomes ours, I will hand it over to you. It will be your sole possession and you will not have to share it with your brother. He will take over the family business while Jace group will be solely yours.”

She was thrilled by the offer and worked even harder to take over the company. She wanted to deal with Jayden for having the effrontery to cheat even in her presence.

“You are so sweet, as always,” Jayden said caressing Pearl’s naked breasts. She smiled and kissed him. It had become a regular routine. It was a weekly ritual. She came to his office at least once a week to have fun. Jayden never failed to ‘service’ her well each time she came and this made her long for him very much.

He spun her around with great expertise and entered her from behind making her let out a moan that was music to his ears. He loved the sound of her moans against his ears.

He sat on his seat going through files when Pearl emerged from the inner office after their pleasant moment. He smiled at her as she walked gracefully to him. She planted a kiss on his lips and he placed her on his lap. He pulled out some crispy notes from his drawers and handed them to her.

“You have pleased me so well, take care of yourself my love.”

She took the money and gave him another kiss.

“I will give you more styles next time.”

“Naughty girl, you are distracting me.”

“I’m off. Bye!”

“Love you!”

As she was leaving, she bumped into Jayden’s secretary who was coming into Jayden’s office. He gave her a discreet and questionable look. He wondered what she came to the office to do every week.

“I will find out some day,” he said within.

“What’s the matter?”

“Sir, a shareholder is buying shares in large numbers.”

“Who’s that?”

“Grey Height.”

“Hmmm. Stop public sale of shares till further notice. No one is allowed to buy shares in suspicious large numbers. That’s not good for the company, look into it and get enough information.”

“Alright sir.”

“I will reward you for this important finding.”

“Thank you sir,” the secretary bowed low, and left the office with a satisfied look on his face. He had just gotten a free bonus. He swore to add more effort to earn more bonuses from his boss.

“Baby, I missed you so much,” Benny exclaimed with a thrill in her voice.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m back now and you have me all to yourself.”

“Awwwwnnn! That sounds sweet.”

“Let’s go and see the wedding dress now, shall we?”

“Goodness me! Baby! I can’t believe that’s coming from you.”

“I asked the fashion designer to wait one more week and we have to hurry up. Keeping her for an extra week is enough, let’s set off.”

Noah held her hands tenderly and they walked to the car. Benny felt like a queen. This has always been her dream, to be with President Noah, to have him all to herself. Now that she was one step away, she would do anything to keep him.

Emily tidied her desk and looked at the design draft for the hundredth time. She remembered Gu Yanxi’s words of confidence,

“Come on! Don’t be tensed, this is your specialty and you have done it so well.”

There was a gentle tap on the door. She looked around the office again to make sure nothing was amiss. She already knew it was her clients.

“Come in.”

And the door opened from outside ushering in the visitors.
