Sold to Mr. Arrogant

Today is the today that I will be going home. I have just finished college and I am ready to take over the family business. I finished Architecture and I have a little knowledge on how to run a company but I took up minor on business course so I can have a little knowledge on how to handle a business. My father promised me that he will teach me how to run our small family business. My name is Sinag Wilson, yes I know my name sounds weird but I love it. It was my mom who named me after the sun. My name literally means ray of sunlight, my mother named me Sinag because according to her, It was the first thing she saw after she gave birth to me. My family runs a small construction business that my father and mother helped put up together. When my mother died when I was 10 years old, it was just my dad who run the company but his sister has to take over when we sent my dad to rehab for two years because of his gambling addiction. But now that my auntie has married and lived far from us, it would be up to me and my dad to run the family business. My dad has recovered from the gambling addiction and is now back on track to manage the family business but now that I’m here, I will be taking over the company. "madam we're here at the airport already" I was brought back to reality when the taxi driver told me that we have just arrived at the airport. "thank you" I handed him my fare and he also helped me unload my bags. I take a one last look around me, this will be the last time I will be seeing Paris Airport, not so sure if I will be back here but I will surely miss Paris. I spent the last four years here when I was studying architecture in the university, now that I have graduated, I will be going back to my hometown. I went in to the airport and wait for my flight back to California. It was a long flight back home. I was awakened by an announcement that we are approaching LAX. I waited for everyone to go out first off the plane before I head out. I waited for my luggage and headed out of the airport where I saw my auntie waving at me. I ran fast when I saw her. She is my father’s sister and acts as my second mother when my biological mother died. "auntie... I’ve missed you. I thought you wouldn’t be here Til thanksgiving?" I asked as I hug her. Her husband uncle Benny helped me with my luggage. "thanksgiving is in a week darling and your uncle Benny here has a business matter to handle here so I asked if I can come with him so I can surprise you" "your auntie just loves you so much even if your not her real daughter but it’s okay, you were already her eldest daughter even before we made a little one" "wait, what? You’re expecting a child?" I looked at them both and they smiled at me. I can’t help but also smile. I don’t know how to react with the news so I hugged them both and they also hugged me back. "I’m so happy for both of you and I’m so excited that finally I can have a little sister or brother from my second mother" "stop crying dear" auntie said as she wiped the tears on my cheeks. "I’m sorry auntie, I just can’t help the tears of joy. I’m just so happy for both of you" "anyway, we should head home now so you can rest, you must be tired from the long flight. Besides, your father is waiting for you at home" uncle Benny said as he opened the backseat of his SUV for us to settle and he then went to the driver side. The ride back home is fun. Me and aunt Hera talked about a lot of things. When we arrived home, a feast was prepared in our dining area. All of my favorite foods was prepared. My daddy never hesitates to prepare a feast for me ever since I was a kid. "my daughter you’re here" I turn around and saw my dad came out of his office. I run to hug him"dad, I missed you" "I miss you too dear, how was the flight back home? I’m sure you were starving so I made sure to have all your favorite foods prepared" he said as he hugged me back. "thanks dad" my father smiled at me as he hugged me tight. I felt weird when my father hugged me back. He hugged me so tight. I look back at him and he just smiled, but in his eyes, I see sadness. I felt like something is off but I didn’t dare ask. My father is not getting any younger already so I assume he’s just tired from work. We all settled in the dining area and ate dinner. There was a lot of talking and laughing. I am open to both my dad and his sister so I told them everything that happened to me during my last year in Paris. Even with my romantic life, I made sure to let them know. It was a lot of fun talking to them like this and I am very happy as of the moment. When we finished eating, I head to my room so I can rest, so does my auntie and uncle but my father went back to his office because he said he had some work to be done. I missed everything in this house, I look around my bedroom. It was still the same except for the bed linen and pillows that I know my dad made sure they were changed before I got home. I then prepared some pyjamas before I went to the bathroom. After doing my night routine, ii then went to bed so I can sleep, tomorrow, I will be at the company for my father will introduce me as the new CEO. He will not retire yet for he will still guide me on how to run the company. I fell fast asleep because also of the jetlag that just took effect right now. I woke up the next morning at around 8am. It is late already so I hurried my way to the bathroom and took a shower. I put on a white formal office suit and just let my hair down after combing it. I take my breakfast before I head to the company. I checked on my phone and saw that my father left me a message in there saying, I didn’t bother waking you up for I know you were tired yesterday. You can come to the office anytime you want today. I just smiled knowing that my father understands me very well. But I promise to myself this will not happen again. A good CEO should never be late again. I arrived at the company at around 10am. The staff were surprised to see me. They already knew who I am but It seems that they are surprised to see me. Like they are not expecting me to come. Still, they greeted me and I greeted them back. I went straight to the elevator and press floor number 40 where my father’s office is located. I hated elevators but I don’t have much of a choice right now. I walked out of the elevator when I reached floor 40 and went straight to my father’s office. His secretary is not around so I went straight and knock on the door. After knocking twice, I was surprised to see my father opened the door for me. He also has a surprised look on his face like he wasn’t expecting me to come here at all. "my dear, I think this isn’t the right time for you to come here. You should just head back home" my father suddenly said. "but why? I thought I’m going to start working today?" my father was about to answer when he was cut off by a baritone voice coming from inside his office. "is that your daughter Mr. Wilson? Why don’t you let her in so that she will know what is happening" I looked at my father and he just looked at me as if he has done something terrible. I pushed the door open to see who is the man he’s been talking to. I entered my dad’s office and there I saw a handsome tall man standing in the middle of the room. Judging by his looks, I can see that this man is hiding a pack of abs behind those black suit. He also has a very defined face that has a little stubble that I suddenly wanted to touch. I stared at the man who is standing 6ft tall or more in my father's office. My 5"5 self lookwd like a dwarf infront of this man. "who are you?" I asked the man. "Markus Grayson. The new chairman of Wilson enterprises" damn that voice. "you’re joking right?"I asked him. " you don’t believe me? Why don’t you ask your daddy right there?" Mr. Grayson then looked at me and my dad. I turn to my father to look for answers and hoping that he will tell me its not true. That the man in front of me iis just messing with me. But I got nothing. My father just bowed down his head indicating that he has done something terrible. "dad why? What happened?" I asked my father. "I’m sorry my dear, I got caught up with my debts, I have nothing left with me so I sold everything including the company and the little land your mother has left for you" "dad why? Since when did you started gambling again? I thought you were fine. You promised me to fix yourself but what did you do?" "I’m sorry" is the only words my father could say. "you haven’t told your daughter everything" it was Mr. Grayson who suddenly said that made my dad lift his head. "no you can’t. My daughter is just a child. Please Mr. Grayson, not my daughter" now I’m confused. I don’t understand what Is happening anymore. "you already signed the contract Mr. Wilson you can’t take it back" "dad what Is this man talking about. What does he mean about the contract" "it seems that your father cannot answer you directly miss Wilson so let me be straight to you, in order for your father to pay off his debts to me, he sold me your company, a little land and agreed with you becoming my wife" Mr Grayson said confidently. "becoming your what?" "you heard it right, you will become my wife" "no! Dad how could you do this to me?" "I’m sorry my dear, I have nothing else left and I don’t want to go to jail" "so that’s why you sold your daughter so you can pay off your debts? How could you? I thought of you as the best father and a responsible man. But I guess I was wrong. I was expecting to take over this company that you and mom worked hard to put up but now you’re selling it and me to this arrogant man? I guess I was wrong for idolizing you." I couldn’t take it anymore and I no longer want to hear whatever my father will say so I ran out of his office and ran out of our company that now belongs to Mr Grayson.
