JAYDEN
He sighed softly after reading Sarah's information.
She must be on her way here.
He thought to himself. He was glad she accepted his request. He wondered what changed her mind though. He couldn't believe he offered her such an offer. Who would want a s*x worker for a wife without solid reason?
She's so beautiful and calm. She was such a natural beauty with no makeup. He had never been so much enticed by a woman's beauty until he met her. She had made no effort at all at dressing, yet she was so stunning.
He knew the reason why she was doing the work, and he wanted to help her. But he could have just given her money to solve her issues or just better still get her a job in his company, although she doesn't have a degree. He doesn't know why, but he wants to keep seeing her every day.
“This is the contract sir, I stated the terms just as you wanted” Eric, his lawyer, stated. He had been working as his personal lawyer since when he started his company.
“Good Eric, she should be here soon. I wonder what's taking her so long. Probably she changed her mind” Jayden said.
“I brought you a cup of coffee, Eric” Marie walked in dropping a cup of coffee on the table they were both sitting at.
“Thanks Marie. How's Ann? When is she coming back?” Eric asked Marie.
“She will be back by the ending of this month” Marie responded with a smile. Ann is her only daughter and currently in Paris with Jaden's parents.
“I need to go check on the food in the kitchen”, she said, leaving the room.
“You know you shouldn't be doing this Jayden, she's a s*x worker for goodness’s sake” Eric said, facing him again.
“It's only for business, Eric. It's not a real marriage. I need to close this deal. It's what i have always wanted to achieve”, Jayden stated.
“But, you could get any lady to do this. Why does it have to be her”?, Eric asked again.
“Well, i just want to help her. That's all. We both need each other” Jayden replied.
“She's here sir”. Stone walked into Jayden's private study with Sarah storming after him.
“You can leave now, Stone. Thanks” Jayden said. Stone walked away, revealing Sarah who was standing behind him.
Damn

SARAH
She didn't know she had slept off in the car. It felt like heaven to her. She woke as the car halted at a spot inside a building. One of the guys came down to open the door for her
“Why are they treating me like a queen?” She thought to herself as she stepped out of the limousine.
She raised her head to look around the whole compound, and she couldn’t help but open her mouth at the sight before her.
JAYDEN ROBERTS MANSION
That inscription was written on a tall building which stood beautifully before her and well erected.
The structures left her mouth hanging as it made the whole house look beautiful. The house was painted in pure gold. She couldn’t help but marvel at the sight before her. One could easily tell the owner of this building was swimming in wealth.
“Please follow me, ma” The man who came to pick her up said to her. She was feeling so embarrassed that he had caught her admiring everywhere.
“O.. Okay" She said slowly, walking after him.
She was surprised to see plenty of bodyguards standing outside the compound. There were up to twenty people standing at different spots in front of the building.
She walked into the mansion admiring everywhere inside. The walls were looking so beautiful with different beautiful paintings standing hung on the wall. Different workers were walking up and down the house. She couldn’t but admire how neat and beautiful the whole place was.
“She's here sir". She quickly jerked from her admiration as she heard the man who had brought her say to someone. She knew who he was talking to and quickly composed herself to face him.
“You can leave now, Stone. Thanks” Jayden said.
His thick voice echoed through the whole place.
The man left, leaving her to face the two men sitting opposite each other. She realized she was in a private study. She recognised Jayden but didn't know who the other man was.
She caught him staring at her.
He looked so comfortable and cool on the chair. He was sitting in his black t-shirt and a pair of black joggers. His hair was curled and it looked so rich and full, some strands covering his forehead.
His sparkling blue eyes shone brightly, and his thick lashes laid down on his smooth skin. His skin looked so perfect and smooth. He had a perfectly built body. She wondered how a man could have such a perfect face and body.
They both stared at each other until he finally spoke up.
“Have your seat” Jayden said without any form of acquaintance. She was suprised at his attitude, but they were here for business anyway.
Sarah was putting on a patterned black skirt and a white shirt alongside a black sweatshirt. She wore matching black boots and carried a black bag. She packed her hair in a ponytail and wore a white shade. They struggled with everything, but not with clothes. They parents had a fashion workshop before everything went down after her father had died.
She's beautiful. Jayden admitted to himself
“What made you change your mind”, he asked her.
She wasn't doing this for herself anyway. If her brother hadn't called him in her voice to accept the offer she wouldn't be there. She was doing this for her family. They need the money. Her mother's dying. She had debts they needed to pay. She had promised her brother he would complete his education. She can't continue being a s*x worker.
“I need the money.”
She's finally accepting this.
