Jayden
He didn't know what he was thinking. He went to that bar because he hadn't had s*x in a while but ended up shoving an offer to her face.
He had initially planned on getting another person to sign the contract, but he didn't know why he ended up saying that to someone he spent the night with.
She was different. He had learned about her situation before he even had s*x with her. He knew she never loved that job. So many girls would fall at his feet, but she never bulged. It was as if he didn't exist to her.
She was beautiful. Damn! He had never seen a lady look so natural and beautiful without any try. Her hair was tied in a particular style he hadn't seen in any lady. She wasn't even wearing makeup. Her dress was so casual, and he wondered if she had entered the wrong room.
That night was crazy. It felt as though his body needed her. Her skin felt so soft under him. She drove him crazy instantly.
He needed to close that deal, but then he shouldn't have shoved such a proposal at someone like that. As much as he regretted it, he knew he had to help her. But why?
He shrugged.
“Sir, you have a meeting with Alexander's Communication in an hour” He heard his secretary say, which jerked him out of his thoughts.
He was halfway to closing the deal with that company. He only needed a marriage certificate to complete it.
“I will be down in a minute” he stated.
He watched Stone exit the room. Stone was his personal bodyguard and confidante. He had been working for him for years now.
He dressed quickly, picked up his briefcase and left the room to go downstairs.
“Hi Jayden, good morning” Marie, his housekeeper, greeted him. She is a woman in her early 50s. She had been working for him for so long, and she was one of the few people that had access to him anytime. He's known to be a very strict person.
“Marie, i hope you slept well”, he asked her.
“Yes i did. I packed your lunch and gave it to Stone. He took it to the car already”, Marie replied.
“Thanks Marie, take care of yourself. I might be late. Don't wait for me” he said. He knew Marie would always wait for him to get back before she slept every night.
“Okay, you take care too” She said, although she was still going to wait till he got back.
He walked into his office after alighting from his car.
The workers greeted him, most of them avoiding the path he took. He was greatly feared by most of the workers, he was known to be a very strict man. He had principles that no one dare disobey.
He's Jayden Roberts
He sighted his secretary sitting at her desk. Standing up almost immediately, she saw him following him to his office.
“They are around, sir” Amelia, his secretary, said after she dropped a cup of coffee on his table.
He knew those she was referring to. They were from Alexander Communications. He needed to sign some documents.
He muttered thanks to Amelia, who left immediately.
He walked into the meeting room, and they stood up to greet him.

FEW DAYS LATER
"Luke clean the kitchen once you're awake. I want to go get some foodstuff”, Sarah shouted from the living room.
She was about to leave when she heard a knock on the door.
She wasn't expecting anyone. Who could that be?
Probably it could be one of their neighbors.
She was surprised to see a tall huge man standing by the door putting on a well-tailored suit with black shade.
He looked scary
“What do you want?”
“Good morning ma”. He greeted her with his voice echoing.
“I guess it's the wrong address”. She responded by closing the door.
“I'm looking for Miss Sarah. Are you the one ma'am”, he asked.
“Y. Yes, why are you looking for me?” She asked him.
“ Are you ready to go now ma? We were asked to pick you up now, ma'am.”
“I don't understand you, to where?” Sarah asked, looking puzzled.
“Mr Jaden's house, you called him yesterday to inform him about finalizing the contract today by 10am. He informed us to pick you at the address that you gave him yesterday”. He replied,
“What's going on? I didn't call Mr Jayden to inform him of accepting any contract. I had trashed the….” Her voice trailed off when she remembered she hadn't trashed the card herself. She had to give Luke the business card to do that.
Luke!!
What the heck?
Could he have called on her behalf?
No f*****g way!
“Luke!!!” She shouted so much that her throat hurt before dashing to his room.
Luke stood up immediately he heard his sister’s voice. He knew she was pissed else she wouldn't shout his name like. He had sighted the black jeep and knew immediately Mr Jayden had sent someone to pick her up. He knew what he did was wrong, but he hated the fact his sister was a s*x worker. He didn't like his job. This offer would save her.
“Where the hell did you put the card i gave you? Did you do as i told you?” Sarah asked angrily.
“Sarah, you need to calm down… okay?”
“Can you explain now?!!!”
“I called Mr Jayden in your voice last night after so much contemplation. I didn't want to call him, but i can't afford to continue to see you sleep with different men to help this family. His offer is a good one. Mom can get to do heart surgery and school fees would be sorted out. You would still get a good monthly pay that could help us for that one year. I'm tired of seeing you struggle every day for us. This is the best thing i can do for you sis”, Luke stated.
“Since you called him, go ahead and marry him. I don't f*****g know this man. I never dreamed of getting married in the next five years. Now you want me to because of money” She hated the fact she cry so easily.
“I just had to do it for you, I'm sorry. You don't know how hurt i feel each time you come home looking so exhausted and how you look at yourself every day in the mirror while dressing every night. It's time you stopped. Take this year to achieve what you want to achieve. You can save up for the fashion house you have always dreamed of with your income. If dad were alive and mom was feeling well you wouldn't…….” Luke, who rarely cries, had started to shed tears and, knowing fully well she, caused it made her start to cry too.
“I'm sorry, don't cry, okay”. She sniffled back her tears.
“Can you too stop crying? Or else I'm going to continue crying?” He knows how emotional his sister can be. She acts so strongly but cries at every little thing.
“Okay, but you shouldn't have done that without informing me first.”
“The same you that asked me to trash the card, how was i supposed to do that?” Luke replied.
“What about mom?
“Don't worry, I will take care of her till you get back.”
“Now let's get you dressed, someone's waiting for you.”
