DON’T LET ME GO

oh god did I just ask a commoner to marry me? Brandon what did you get yourself into? I scolded myself mentally as I waited for her response but second went by and she did was stare at me unblinking so I decided to ask her in a more civilised way

”Miss this won be an actual marriage but a contractual marriage meant to solve both our problems. I can help you with the money you need to treat your father and in return you are to show up to parties as my wife and give birth to a child for me so people, most especially my mother, won be bothered about me getting an heir. ”

Once again she stared at me blinking her long wet lashes in a slow motion before finally speaking, ”M-marry you!?….I don even know you and you don know me either, are you willing to accept a stranger into your home and what do you mean give birth to a child for you? ” She asked ”its exactly what it means miss and don worry theres plenty of time for us to get to know each other, youll also be entitled to two billion dollars at the end of the contract period so if you agree to sign the contract I can get the best doctors in the country ready to treat your father. And as for formalities, my name is Brandon Yor, may I know yours since you want us to get acquainted? ” I asked half hoping she agrees while the other part of me prayed she didn because I knew this woman was bad news to the very foundation I built my life on.

”Brandon Yor as in the one hosting this party? THE Brandon Yor!? ” she exclaimed and when I nodded her eyes widend in shock, I chuckled soundlessly at her cute reaction.

”So you mean if I agree to sign the contract youll do as you promised? ” she said, her eyes filled with hope ”Yes, but make sure you think this through, this is a serious decision that could affect your life. ”

”Theres nothing to think about, Ill do anything for my dad so Mr. Yor Im willing to sign the contract…uhm my name is Amy peters. ” she said with determination in her eyes making me smile inwardly, ”Good, now Ill ask my driver to take you to the hospital where your father has been admitted in to and Ill follow shortly after with the contract and the doctors. Also, if we
e going to get married you should get used to calling me Brandon. ”

After she left I called my lawyer to make us a copy of the contract and I also gave the best doctors available the location of the hospital where she was headed

”Amy Yor, that has a ring to it. I never thought the day would fo through all this stress for a woman. ” I said to myself half smiling

AMYS POV

I can believe how one decision is about to change my life but on the bright side Ill have enough money to take care of both my dad and myself, I just hope Ill get more time to prepare myself, I hope dad is okay– ”maam were here, ”

the driver pulled me out of my thoughts

I thanked him for the ride as I shakily made my way to the room where mu dad was being kept, I made sure to be extra careful so as not to wake my dad up but staring at him and seeing how pale he was made me tear up again, ”dad, Im so sorry, I-I couldn even talk to you properly this morning because of my selfishness ” I whispered to him, wishing he could hear me when I heard a voice from behind me, ”The doctors are here so we should head out, don worry hell be fine. ”

”Mr Yor, uhm Brandon, thank you for everything ” I expressed my gratitude to him as I stared at my dad one more time before leaving for the waiting area. Dads surgery started and after an hour I started feeling drowsy, ”You should rest, the surgery will take some time and once everything is done we can sign the contract. ” Brandon told me as he lead my head toward his shoulder and hearing his voice alone made me calm down for some reason and I soon fell asleep.

I woke up some time later due to hunger but I suddenly remembered where I was and I panicked, ”dad! ” I stood up from the bed hastily and that was when I realised I wasn in the waiting room anymore

I went toward the door but as I was about to open the door, someone else opened it from the outside and Brandon came in holding a tray of food in his hands, ”The surgery was successful and your dad is resting so leave him be for now and you should also eat something and tidy yourself up before you see him, I sent someone to buy you a change of clothes and as for the contract well sign it after youve eaten. ” He said as he walked towards a table and placed the tray on it, feeling relieved I walked towards the table too and sat down after me

”I can thank you enough for all youve done Brandon ” I started the conversation. ”its fine, just make sure to take care of yourself, wife. ” Something about the way he called me wife sent shivers running down my spine and made me blush. I cleared my throat and tried to distract myself by eating but he seemed to have noticed my reaction as I saw a semblance of a smile on his face

Now that everything was settled, I took the time to admire his fearure and boy he looked like a Greek god, every thing about his body screamed perfection and I got so lost in staring at him that I didn realise him staring back. ”like what you see? ” He asked making me choke on the food I was eating.

”uhm, sorry I didn mean to stare. ” I said shyly but what he said next made me even more embarrassed, ”Don worry, all you see is now yours wife so don feel shy to stare….or touch ” at that point I was pretty sure my whole body was red due to the amount of embarrassment I was feeling

He didn speak after that but I could still see the smug smile he had on his face so I decided to get back at him, ”Thanks for the permission hubby ” I said in the sweetest voice I could muster making his ears turn red and I smiled triumphantly.
