Chapter 6
1106 Words
Jared's POV
Knowing that she's on the other side of the room makes me feel excited and safe at the same time. She's here with me and that I would be able to protect her. Although she doesn't know the underlying truth: I am the boss and leader of the Mafia and that I am one of the most dangerous killers they have talked about. She might not know this but she's trapped with me. My angel and my light from the first sight I have seen her, she has captured my soul.
She wasn't interested in my wealth, my power or money. The only thing I think that she cares about is her younger sister which I guess is her only family member. Though all of you would think that I have a dark deep secret of being a mafia, I do not and I am one legally because it was passed down from my father to me. Our family have been running the business for years and I don't think it is surprising for any of us.
"Sir, your brother, Marcel, has arrived."
"Let him in."
Marcel walks in and I hope he had some great news for me.
"Brother, woah look at you, all fresh and new. What? Don't be mad at me I have some great news for you. The person who leaked the information was Keagan Jackson, one of your workers. He was working with several of our competitors but luckily we have caught him quick enough to not let him leak any other important information."
"And the point of coming here was?"
"Well, I heard there was this pretty little lady you hired to become your girlfriend brother. So tell me, where is she now?"
"Why should I tell you?"
"Because I am your favourite brother in the world?"
"Nonsense"
"Brother, have you already liked this girl. You know, you only do one night stands and fake girlfriends but I have never seen you quite serious with any other girls before."
"She is like any other girls and she will be my fake girlfriend just for 3 months and then I will let her go until mom stops nagging me about having to find a wife or permanent girlfriend. I will be good."
"Whatever you say. Oh, I got to take this phone call. See you later, Jared."
After Marcel left, I thought about what he said. Maybe it is true, maybe... No, it can't be and it won't be true. I have to set the matters right away and make sure that Anitta agrees and understand the rules and contract I have put out for her.
"Anitta, please come to my room," I speak to the intercom.
The door opens and reveals one of the most beautiful women on Earth, though it sucks to say that she is not mine.
"Anitta, please have a seat. I want to discuss with you about one important matter," She instantly looks worried like she has done anything but she's got no clue what I have set up for her.
"You must know that your position comes with helping and assisting me in many different ways which I must say includes going to events and family parties. I have a request for you. I want you to come to one of my parties that will be hosted in two weeks and you will act as my girlfriend. I have here a contract that would say that we will be a couple for 3 months and then you would have to leave me and my company. Are our terms clear?"
"I-I-I think I understood. I have a question."
"Go ahead."
"Why did you accept me into this company if I am your fake girlfriend?"
"Because right now I need a set of hands to work and since you are capable of it, I will let you do the work until my PA comes back from her pregnancy leave. If you agree, please sign your name here. Also, to compensate, you will receive $200,000 for the three months. Is that understood?"
"Yes, sir."
Anitta's POV
I couldn't believe what he just said. I thought I could finally have a job and settle down with Rosie not being sick. I guess not. Though he did actually offer $200,000, I don't know if it would be enough for me to pay Rosie to go to school for the next few years until she is a college graduate. I hope so. Right now, all I could do was to agree to the terms since I really needed the money to pay off the debts. I will be able to work 2 to 3 part-time jobs later just to keep Rosie in school.
At first, I thought Jared Dimitrou was a good man. Now, I know that I should have never messed with him or even bumped him on the streets. He wasn't what I thought he would be. What if he actually ended up like my mother and my father? That gave me chills. No, he will just be my fake boyfriend for three months and we would go on our separate ways.
After picking the pen up and signing on the paper, I felt that I had given my 3 months away being like a sugar baby. I had no choice but to do it this way. This was best for me and Rosie.
"Congratulations, Ms Reynott. Now you are officially my 3 months girlfriend. From now on, I will set up an account just for your monthly allowances. You have to come to work regularly and would get paid like a normal assistant. After three months, we will separate our own ways. Do you have any more questions?"
"No, sir."
"Good. Here is your copy of the contract and please make sure to keep it safe so that no one would be able to read it or even have their hands on it. Do you hear me?"
"Yes, sir."
"Good now you can head back to work."
As I stand up and walk back to my office, I feel that my legs are giving up on me. I always hoped for a normal happy life with a small family and my sister. Now I am tangled in a mess with one of the richest and worst billionaire. I just hope that everything in that three month goes well and that I would never have to see him again.
I don't have the priority for anybody else in life. I chose not to love and I will not love anyone except for my only family - Rosie.
