CONTRACT MARRIAGE, The Billionaire's Hidden Bond

A knock came from the door waking Natalie up from her beautiful sleep. She opened her eyes, yawned, and flipped her long brown hair to one side. The knock came again and she hissed.

She wondered who was disturbing her peace that morning. Wont they let her wake up by herself that day after all it was her wedding.

The door flew open and a dazzling man dressed in suit walked in. his expression suddenly changed when he saw Natalie still on the bed covered in a white duvet.

“You are still sleeping?” He spoke in his sweet manly voice, which Natalie has always looked forward to hear each passing day. She looked at the clock on the side bed beside the bed and lifted up a brow. She was surprised and confused on the little time her fiancée dressed up.

It hasn’t been up to ten minutes he left the room but was back all dressed up in his black tuxedo for the wedding.

“In just ten minutes?” she asked him. “Ten minutes what?” he looked so puzzled. “I mean. How did you manage to take your bath and dressed up in ten minutes?” she asked him. He didn’t understand what she was talking about until his eyes darted through the room and he saw her dresses scattered everywhere in the room.

“Isn’t that the dresses you wear yesterday for the cocktail party?” he asked her. Natalie turned to where he was pointing at and she node her head. “Yes” she said. Why was he asking her when he knew how the dresses got there?

“What are your dresses ding on the floor? And why is the bed…” he paused when his eyes caught her bare chest. “Why did you undressed before sleeping?” Natalie looked down her chest and chuckled. “Why are you asking what you already know?” she scoffed.

James was more confuse than he was when he first saw the dresses on the floor. What was she talking about; he doesn’t know how her dresses got there and shed saying something, which was confusing. He went closer to the bed and held the duvet to pull it off her body but Natalie held un to it giggling.

“come on James, we can wait till tonight to repeat thus again. What if anyone shows up in the room when we are in the middle of romance?” she giggled. “Natalie, I don’t know what you are talking about. What happened to you last night?” he asked her.

What happened to her or what happened between them last night? She was confused by his question and his expression too. He looked so shocked and she could sense he was getting angry.

“you and I made out last night,” she said with a brow raised. “you and I did what!” James exclaimed. He was shocked beyond recognition. He did nothing with her; he wasn’t even with her last night. He was even looking all over the place for her after one of his friends told him she was having a drink with her stepsister.

“yes and why are you acting this way?” she sat upright. They did made love last night. She remembered he came inside the room when she was already on the bed trying to cool off from getting drunk at the party.

She remembered telling him they could wait until the next day, which was their wedding, but he went ahead and she gave in. after all, he was the man she was going to be married to the next day.

“ Are you out of your mind?” his voice was now loud. “James, what’s going on?” Natalie asked him. “You want to know what’s gong on? Then wait for me” he left the room in anger leaving her so confused.

As Natalie was trying to figure out what was going on, James returned to the room with her step mum, dad, and stepsister behind hm.

her eyes widened and she quickly covered her shoulders. “ What have you done!” her step mum was the first to speak. Her stepsister covered her mouth while her dad stood there in shock.

“Is this the type of a person you want me to get married to? She slept with another man just before her wedding and she’s telling me it was I,” James pointed at her as he spoke.

Slept with another man? Natalie was shocked. How could James say that about her in front f her. They didn’t have any misunderstanding for him to accuse her that way. Why would she even do that to him when she wasn’t stupid?

“James, please stop saying that. You know l'll never do something as stupid as that. Don’t do this to me to make me look bad in front of my parents, it was you last night and…” he yelled at her and shut her up.

“you and I are done because I am not going to marry someone who cheats!” he shouted at her and stormed out f the room. Natalie froze; her wedding has just being called off by the man she has always dreamt of spending her life with.

The slap from her step Mum brought her Back to her senses. Tears rolled down her face and she held her cheek, which was slapped. She looked at her dad who was still rooted to a spot in shock and she shook her head.

“how dare you do this to our family!” she slapped her again. When she lifted up her hand to slap Natalie again, her stepsister ran there and she grabbed her mum’s hand. “ Mum, that’s okay” she whispered to the woman.

The woman turned to her husband who was still shocked about the whole thing and she held his hand. “Honey, you have to do something about this girl because she has brought shame to our family.”

Natalie watched her daddy, she was waiting for what the man was going to say to her. “ let’s go home” was the only thing he said and they left.
