Chapter 1

Let go of me , I do not want to get married to a man I barely know “I yelled at my dad in tears..

I am not saying you guys would be married forever , All I’m saying is during the period of our business deal, you’re going to act as his wife.

Then what I’m I suppose to do with my boyfriend?” I asked in tears.

Leave that guy alone ,he’s definitely not good for you “ my dad replied walking off

I sat down on my bed feeling extremely confused.

I don’t know who Eden is , Although I have heard stories of how rude and arrogant he is, but I haven’t meet him before.

I rolled over to the other side of the bed to put off the lamp, tomorrow is going to be a whole lot I should at least get a good night rest.

Next day

I woke up feeling energized but on a second thought I immediately became demoralized.My dad and I will be seeing Eden and his dad today to sign the contract. I told my boyfriend about the whole deal but he didn’t seem to care. I got dressed and headed straight to the sitting room to meet my dad. I was a little bit surprised at my dads actions. My dads has always been so supportive of me and will never force me to do anything against my will.

We got to hotel we were directed to come to . It was an hotel owned by Eden. We walked into the compound and sighted Eden and his dad Mr Greg sitting close to the pool. I wondered why we were asked to come sign a contract at an hotel.

There were two extra chairs opposite Eden and his dad which I presume they kept intentionally. The contract was handed over to me to sign. I glanced through everything making sure I read every single word written on it. Mr Greg did the talking while his son sat down pressing his phone unconcerned about what was going on around him. I sluggishly collected the pen from Mr Greg and put in my signature.There was obviously nothing I could do at this point.

My dad and Mr Smith walked off discussing in business terms.

I stood up to stroll around the surrounding, Eden didn’t say a word to me neither did he act I existed. I took a few miles away from Eden and saw a small garden with beautiful flowers. I bent down to touch the flowers when I heard a deep voice yelled “STOP “. I looked back to see who it was and there stood Eden looking at me with a frown on his face.

Who ask you to touch those ? He asked in an irritated manner.

I...I...i... am sorry, I was just trying to check them out “ I replied stammering.

You should know that this is not your house, do those flowers belong to you. Learn to mind your business and stay away from anything that belongs to me, he said moving closer to me.

Now Get the hell out of here” he yelled

I stood up and walked away in embarrassment.

What kind of human being is that, so rude and arrogant I muttered to myself angrily.

I went back to the empty chair waiting impatiently for my dad. Is this the man I am suppose to stay with for God knows how long? I am definitely in for a whole lot of troubles. Eden came back to where I was sitted acted like he did not just yelled at me few seconds ago. I felt very much uncomfortable sitting close to him, so i texted my dad that I already left . I couldn’t contain my anger, I just had to go.

My dad entered into my room unannounced, I rolled over to the left side of my king sized bed to sit upright to listen to what my dad has to say. The last time he came into my room unannounced he brought a bed news of me getting married, I hope this is not another bad news.

Good evening dad” I greeted him tiredly

“Evening my dear”

You should start packing your things...

For?? I cut him short.

Allow me finish what I was saying “ my dad said looking directly into my eyes.

Go on dad” I sigh
