My Contract Billionaire Husband

"I guess the surprise has already hit you"he observed.

Unable to speak,she nodded her reply.

"I know that this may come as a shock to you but you were highly recommended "he continued.

She frowned in confusion.

"What is that supposed to mean?"she asked skeptical of his intentions.

With a wide grin on his face,he leaned in closer across the table.

"I have a proposition for you"he said.

"What proposition?excuse me,but am trying to wrap my head around the fact that am sitting across from the owner of the enterprise I work in.Wait,was this even planned?"she blurted out.

Her mind going in different directions trying to piece everything together.

He straightened up now.And gave her a once over before opening his mouth to speak.

"This meeting was purely coincidental.Although I can't say,we wouldn't have met either way.But am glad it happened sooner rather than later."he explained.

"So what do you want from me?"she asked .

"I just want to propose something to you"he declared.

"You've said that already"she interrupted.

"That's how serious I am about it.So hear me out"he ordered.

Her eyebrow raised in defiance and her lips puckered in a pout .

He would be lying if he said he didn't find that so attractive about her.She was everything he was looking for.Inquistive,curious,a little fisty and respectful.And her body made his blood boil.She had curves in all the right places and judging from the peach stripped tshirt she wore and the body hugging skirt she wore,she wasn't afraid to hide that fact.

Goodness, he was feeling his insides boil for this woman unlike anything he had ever seen.Thats why she was perfect.

"Marry me"he said without a doubt in his mind.

Her folded hands fell to her sides,her mouth stood agape as she stared at him wide-eyed and in shock.

"What?!"she exclaimed.

He watched as she blurted out laughing.

"You're joking"she said in disbelief.

He leaned back in his chair with folded arms to stare straight into her eyes.She gulped .

There was no way that she could escape this now.

"And why would you want 'me' to marry you?you don't even know me."she stuttered looking around as if the word itself was an abomination.

"Because I want you" he answered firmly.

She stared at him with shock.She opened her mouth to speak but no words came out.

From her facial expressions,he knew that this was going to take a while.So to break the awkward silence, he raised his hand up to signal the waiter.

At this point,they needed to the ice.The waiter took their orders and was back almost immediately with the light lunch he had ordered for her.

"You should eat up.Apart from coffee,they make a mean batch of sandwiches.They're really good,try it."he advised.

She grimaced but obliged either way.

He smiled at her blind obedience.He liked her naviety.He liked her childlike trust in him even though she didn't know him and his preposterous idea but she didn't react violently or cling to him because of his money upon knowing his dentity,just like a few other girls had tried to do when he had offered them the choice as well.

He knew he needed it but he wasn't desperate to think that all girls would be compatible with him that's why he ran the search in the first place.

After she had eaten a good portion of the sandwich which was good,she would need it ,if she was to keep up with him. He wanted a woman who was unashamed about eating and had a good appetite.

She looked up from her half eaten sandwich.Clearing her throat,she finally spoke.

"Am sorry sir,I may not know why you would want to do this or why you would even think I was a good match to be your wife,but I would have to decline."she replied.

"I know that I may not have much or the fact of me never being in a relationship ..."she trailed off.

His eyes widened in shock.He felt his smile grow wider much to her confusion.

"...but I can't marry you.You see,love will always be a big part of my life.I grew up in a not so loving home so I wouldn't want to repeat the same mistakes my parents did."she finished.

His lips pursed in thought.

"Would it help to say that I am attracted to you. You're beautiful"he responded.

She felt her cheeks flush with excitement but quickly recomposed herself.

He almost chuckled at her cute expression.keyword,Almost.

He has never in his entire life being refused of anything except once.And that was a very long time ago.And he didn't handle rejection well.

Of all the girls to reject him,it had to be her.All the girls he had interviewed had accepted on a whim,some had feigned innocence but he knew what they were really after.who wouldn't want to be his wife.Which made it even more confusing that she was refusing his offer.

It was a great deal.

"I don't think I've fully explained what's in it for you?"he negoitated.He was grasping at straws now .He knew from the determined pout to her lips that she wasn't changing her mind.So with a deep frown,he resorted to the only way he knew would work.

Playing nice so far hadn't gotten him anyway.So with the proud set of his shoulders and his folded arms,he stared her down and proceeded to talk to her with his really good business skills.its why he was known to be a ruthless billionaire and a very successful businessman.

"Alina Sanders ,a very hardworking young lady,25 years of age ,graduated top of her class,is ambitious and driven and is very passionate about working.She lives in an apartment 10 blocks away from the company on the 10th Avenue in Brooklyn. Lives with her retired mother who is currently in need of surgery for her reoccurring spinal cord injury. Is on bed rest and is constantly in and out of the hospital. "He recited smugly.

He paused to raise an eyebrow at her.

"You are in a great deal of debt young lady.With your student loans and stacked up hospital bills,i don't think you will be able to last a week without a job.besides, it's been a while since you filled out your mum's prescription."he added.

"How dare you?"she sneered mortified.

He eyed her from underneath his lashes .

"Now,do you reconsider or do I continue?the choice is yours.Either way I win..."he said victoriously .

She gulped.Her eyes darting around the room for someone to intervene. But it seems there was noone.
