The CEOs Inexcusable Wife

It was a nice morning around 8am when I woke up feeling great, my mom and my sisters were in the kitchen making something for us to eat.

As they served the food, we sat at the dining and watched some news. But then my mom spoke up "That's Ryan lawson" she said with a smile

I didnt even look at the television instead I continued eating.

My father smiled and gazed at my mom "How do you know Ryan Thompson?" He asked

"Who wouldn't know the richest son of the Thompson family" she asked 

"Your daughter doesn't" My father chuckled and gazed at me. "Yes, our daughter doesn't seem to care about the wealthy and famous."

I shrugged, taking another bite of my food. "I have better things to worry about than who's who in the rich and famous crowd and besides I don't even know who he is."

My mom smiled, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "Well, you might want to start paying attention. Ryan Thompson is not just anyone."

I raised an eyebrow, curious despite myself. "What do you mean?"

My mom leaned in, a conspiratorial look on her face. "I heard he's looking for a wife. And not just any wife, but a contract wife."

My sisters and I exchanged skeptical glances. 

"What's a contract wife?" Kira asked.

My mom leaned back in her chair, a sly smile spreading across her face. "Apparently, he needs a wife to secure a business deal. And he's willing to pay top dollar for it."

I rolled my eyes, unimpressed. "So, he's looking for a gold digger. How original, very smart of him."

My mom's smile faltered, and she looked at me sternly. "Don't be so quick to judge, dear. This could be an opportunity of a lifetime."

I raised an eyebrow, intrigued despite myself. "For who? And what do you mean by that?"

My mom leaned forward, her eyes shining with excitement. "I think you should consider marrying him. Just think of the benefits - financial security, social status, and who knows, maybe even love."

I laughed, incredulous. "You can't be serious. I don't even know the guy, you want me to marry a stranger for wealth and status? You know happy marriages have their own flaws while unhappy own has their own flaws too, so how do you want my own marriage to be?."

My mom's expression turned serious. "Kids nowadays work things out and yes I'm completely serious about that. And I think you should at least consider it, just for your future, your sisters on and our own."

Just then, the doorbell rang. My father got up to answer it, revealing my best friend Lira.

"Good morning, mom and dad" Lira said

My eyes widened in shock as my mom smiled and nodded. "Ah, perfect timing, Lira."

She smiled and rushed towards the kitchen to grab a food, she walked back into the dining table qn rushed the food.

"Look how hungry you are" my mom said to Lira.

Lira chuckled 

I suddenly interrupted "Hey, babes mom was talking about something earlier but I didn't even quite find it interesting or something to do" I said 

"What's that?" Lira asked as she adjusted in her sit properly 

My mom cleared her throat and signaled for me to keep quiet, I wondered why she did that.

But then Lira spoke up that she wants to marry Ryan that she had joined the auditioning.

I felt like I had been punched in the gut. Lira, my bestfriend, was going to marry Ryan Thompson? The same richest billionaire my mom had been talking about just moments before? But neither way I am so happy for her and I will gladly support her in everything.
