Billionaire's contract wife

CHAPTER 4

THIRD PERSON POV CONT:

Jake had received a call from that crazy woman but their was something strange about her call and he couldn't help but wonder if she was okay. Why did he even ask her to get married to him? he thought. He had never taken any interest in ladies after Annabelle's betrayal not to talk of getting married. He was losing his mind because of Crystal and he needs to stop thinking about her..

His phone rings and he picks 'Jake, Annabelle is here to see you and she is causing a ruckus here' Scott said from the other end. 'Send her to my office' Jake replied. Annabelle is here? Jake thought, she had left the country after he caught her cheating and he took their son away from her, restricting her from seeing him. Why did she come back?

'Hey Jake, miss me?' Annabelle announces as she enters his office. 'What are you doing here' he answers her with a frown. 'Is that how you welcome the mother of your son' she sits on the guest chair 'besides Jake i thought you've forgotten about the past and moved on' she continued. 'Annabelle stop wasting my time and tell me why you are here, i have a lot of work to do as you can see' he said without looking at her.

'Jake i came to say sorry, am so sorry for what i did in the past. i just want us to get back together like the old days when we were about to get married. I heard you've never had a serious relationship since i left' she crosses her leg with a smirk.

Jake raises his head to look at her and notice she was wearing so much make up, he couldn't help but scoff at her fakeness. He could remember how she was proving to be angelic with his family but rude to other people but she never  wore those heavy make up. Now he could see what a pretender she is but he wasn't surprised. 'Annabelle why are you really here? i don't have time for your drama as you can see' he pointed at the paper works on his gigantic table.

'I am really sorry Jake, i am ready to be a good mom to our son and a good wife' she says standing up from her chair trying to seduce him. She walked seductively to him and tried rubbing him but he pushed her and shouted 'get your filty off me' he stood up. She was stunned and shocked, he had never shouted at her before even though she was inconveniencing him. She realized he was not that man she left 8 years ago and that was going to be a problem if she was going to win back his heart and trust. 'Jake i said am sorry' she faked tears 'am the mother of your son and i swear i would never cheat on you again' she continued. She believes her tears will make a difference and continues to cry loudly making Jake uncomfortable. 'Stop your fakeness Annabelle, and clean those fake tears' he said handing her a tissue. He felt pity for her, she was fooling her self and had no idea that he wasn't being affected by her tears.

'Jake,' Scott called as he entered the office without knocking, he sees Annabelle wiping her tears and Jake seemed unaffected by it. He knew Jake had changed because of Annabelle and his father's death, never having time for any body else except his family and work. But that woman he kissed on the site of their new construction seemed really strange, he even kept the job on the field on hold after he talked with her. He wasn't going to conclude but he felt his friend was in love, Scott thought. Jake c****d a brow at him and he cleared his throat 'Yes Jake, miss Crystal is here to see you' he announce.

Jake stands up and adjust himself, grabbing his phone 'that's my cue to leave, Annabelle' he said looking at her pathetic face, he sighs. 'What happened in the past ends in the past but i will still stands on my word, i don't you around me and my son' he said with firm tone. 'Scott prepare the car for Crystal and i are going to get lunch' he said with a smile as he leaves the office. Annabelle smiles to herself at least he gave me audience, that's a start she says to herself. 

He walks towards Crystal with Scott following him, 'Crystal ' he calls her 'am sorry for keeping you waiting, shall we' he offers her his hands. Crystal looked around and hesitated before giving her hands for him to lead her. Annabelle watches as Jake behaves like a gentle man to a strange low class girl, 'there is  definitely something going on with the both of them, but that stupid detective told me he never had any serious relationship' she says aloud with anger but a smirk appears on her face as she think of something mischievous.

  'Are you sure? have you thought about it very well' Jake asked Crystal after listening to her, he could see how gloomy her face looks but he didn't want to sound so concern about her. 'Yes i have, what are the necessary things i need to do and the documents i need to sign?' she asked avoiding his face. Jake could read the expression on her face and he knew she was only doing this to settle her bills and not because she wanted to do it. 'Okay then, i will send Scott to the hospital to sort out the bills. My lawyer will meet up with you for the registry but i want a white wedding. You will have to meet up with my son so he can know you as his mother and one last thing' he said standing up 'no one should know that you are not his mother no matter what'  he offers her his hands. She tries to avoid him but he whispers to her 'you gonna be my wife soon'. His words sends shivers in her body and she couldn't explain why, she accepts his hands and he leads her out of the restaurant.

'Hi mom' she greeted as she enters into her mom's hospital room. 'Hey sweetie' Rhea replies with excitement, she had been expecting her. Crystal sits beside her mom's bed 'mom am sorry for the way i talked to you yesterday' she said with her head bowed. 'Sweetie' Rhea sits up 'i should be the one saying  sorry to you, i have been selfish and not thinking about you, your sacrifices and emotions. Lets go home and we both will find a way to pay for my operation' she continues trying to leave her bed. 'No mom' Crystal giggles 'you just too funny, i already sorted the bill out.....and seriously you wanted to leave the hospital without being discharge?' she burst into laughter. 'Stop laughing at me, i just want to show you how strong i can be' she sits bank on her bed as she watches her daughter continue laughing at her. 'Wait, sweet heart how did you pay for my operation?' Crystal immediately stops laughing as she realize her mom's question. 'Ehmmmmm, lets just get you treated first then we will talk about it' she didn't want to lie to her mom.
