A Deal With The Millionaire

” Gosh ” Layla muttered, trying to catch her breath as the driver drove her off.

She wasn’t in her right mind as she kept thinking about what could have happened if she hadn’t escaped, he could have raped her.

The thoughts of her losing her virginity as a result of rape sent shivers down her spine.

Then, it striked her, where was she?.. whose car is she in?, Where are they headed to?, Is she being kidnapped?.

She turned swiftly and her eyes trailed up as the figure beside her was so tall.

He had this cold and blank expression on and that made her heart race in fear.

Are they kidnappers?, She noticed they were two, and there was another driver driving them to an unknown destination.

” Sir… ” She called in a broken voice, she had lost her voice.

The huge and hefty man turned to her and she swallowed nothing down her throat.

” I’m sorry, but I don’t know you.. I’m sorry for entering your car, Could you please drop me here? ” She asked, trying not to show how scared and nervous she was.

” It’s fine ma’am, we meant no harm.. out boss ordered us to bring you to him ” He replied, politely.

” Boss? ” She thought inwardly.

She wanted to say a thing but it got stuck in her throat as she was scared, things could go wrong.

Throughout the rest of the drive, she kept hoping, she was save and not in some kind of danger.

” Please, get down ma’am ” The guard said again, after informing her about their arrival to the destination, but she sat still.

She was scared, where were they taking her to?.

” It’s fine ma’am, I promise ” The guard said again with an assuring smile and she nodded gently before sluggishly alighting from the car.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Words got stucked in her mouth as she stared unbelievably at the building.

Where was she, she kept on staring at the magnificent and gigantic mansion in front if her as they guided her inside the mansion.

” Please wait here ma’am, he will be here soon ” The guard said and she nodded slowly, tho all that was in her head at that moment was her safety.

She was about sitting when she heard footsteps of someone descending the stairs and she raised her head immediately.

She watched as he descended down the stairs egoistically, carrying his shoulders up perfectly, his thick black hair shone brightly beneath the light of the chandelier, his flawless skin seem to be the most graceful thing in his body, but when she beheld his face, she was forced to rebuke herself for thinking that in the first place.

Seeing his small heart-shaped lips, the sudden urge to explore it rushed through her, but that is going to be the biggest mistake of her life, her eyes traveled to his pointed nose, and she couldn’t help the goosebumps that popped up on her skin.

She watched every step he took, the ground he walks on, praising him gracefully for touching them, and as he finally got to her front, that was when she got a better view of his deep blue eyes, and she froze on her spot, until realization hit her!.

He was the beggar!.

Wait, How’s he the beggar, he doesn’t look like one, had she mistaken him for someone else?.

He was finally closer to her and he smiled lightly.

” Please sit down ” He offered, it was then she realized he was someone familiar.

The Millionaire!, Shane Kent, The man whose wedding would be taking place that week at their restaurant.

What was she doing in his house?, Why did he bring her here?.

” Here sir ” She hears another manly voice and turned to the direction the voice came from.

It was a man neatly dressed in suit, with a document on hs hands, she watched as he handed it over to Shane Kent.

The man noticed her and bowed lightly while she did the same.

” Hi, am Claus ” He introduced himself and Layla smiled lightly.

” Layla… ”

” Layla Brown ” He completed for her and she raised her brow, how the hell did he know her full name?.

” Ahem ” Shane cleared his throat and they both turned to him.

” Let’s move straight to the point ” He stated, his attention focused on Layla.

He had studied her appearance while she had chatted with Claus, she looked like a gentle and nice lady. She wasn’t dress to kill as she looked simple, she wasn’t wearing any makeup except from the light blush on her cheeks.

She looked nervous, ofcourse he noticed, who wouldn’t.

” You must be aware about who I am? ” Shane asked and she nodded slowly.

” Shane Kent ” She replied and he nodded in approval that she was right.

” You must be wondering why you’re here? ” He asked and she nodded with a light smile.

He motioned to Claus to take over.

” Miss.., as you must be aware that he’s to get married this week, which the event will be taking place at the restaurant where you work ” He began and Layla was a bit suprised, how they knew all this

” Well… ” He trailed off and glanced at Shane, as if looking for approval before talking.

” My fiancee left ” Shane blurted out instead and her eyeball almost left her socket. She was shocked.

” What!? ” She blurted out before she could say a word and covered her mouth immediately, Shane chuckled at her reaction and she felt lowered her head in embarrassment.

Why did she react that way when it isn’t even her business?.

Maybe ’cause she was just suprised, how could she leave when it’s just some few days to their wedding.

” So.. Why are you telling me this?… ” She found herself asking.

” Cause… ”

” Cause I want you to be my bride ” Shane cut Claus off.
