18 CHAPTER EIGHTEEN:Marry My Son Hazel.

Hazel took a deep breath,mentally wishing for the ground to open  up and swallow her up ,she didn't know sitting with Grandpa would make her this nervous.

She entered his car with her heart beating nervously,she just wished for the Knights family to leave her alone to think,but here she was sitting in the car with their old man who had been observing her since she entered the car.

"Relax child,Im just here to talk with you,wouldn't you spare this old man some minutes of your time"Grandpa said amused over her reaction,he knew the girl was nervous with sitting with him,if there was one thing he loved about her,it was her simple nature which made everyone like her,she wasn't like other girls who would pretend in front of him just to be on his good side.

After she left for her home yesterday,he had a quiet time for himself,thinking about what really conspired in his home last night.

Hazel would actually make a good Wife for his grandson,seeing the fact that she was outspoken with the way she replied to his daughter in-law that tried mocking her.

Although she was clearly not on their social level,with her simple nature he knew she was just the perfect wife for his son.

Zaiden was rude,arrogant and a spoiled jerk who does not value human beings but she was well trained,has a loving heart and has a low tolerance for bullshit ,she was just the perfect wife for him.

But the question here was,is she willing to marry his son?

"I would really like to talk to you,so if you don't mind let's go to a more conducive environment"Grandpa added further while Hazel nodded her head giving him a go ahead approval as his driver took them to a restaurant.

"What would you like to take?"The old man asked Hazel who declined,she's trying not to be a burden to him.

"I'm okay grandpa ,just a glass of water "Hazel replied, averting her face from his eyes,she noticed the disappointment in his face when she declined his request which made her heart ache.

"Do you have a boyfriend?"Grandpa asked, suddenly making her choke on her water.

"What?"Hazel asked unbelievably,hitting her chest for the water to go down,the old man handing her a wipe to clean her mouth.

This family sure has some issues,why would they ask her this question,the last time was his daughter in law and now him.

"I'm sorry about  the stunt my daughter pulled yesterday,I can guess you were not expecting it?"

"Well.."

"But i can say,I would really commend on the way you reacted to the whole issue,Sophia would have being happy if you would have publicly denied knowing my son in front of her,we are a complicated family you see"

"I only got invited for dinner but having a fiance suddenly,i totally was not expecting that"Hazel said laughing suddenly while the old man was trying not to laugh hard at what happened yesterday night.

"I really like you child,you would make a good Wife for my son"Grandpa dropped the statement that made Hazel's expression to harden at the moment,she was totally not going to like his proposition.

"Grandpa.."Hazel tried talking but she didn't know exactly what to tell the old man,he couldn't possibly be trying to set her up with his son.

Hazel,what are you going to do?

"Zaiden might look like a jerk which i would t deny he's such a jerk that would piss you off,but he's a sweet child in between that cold face of his,so I'm pleading with you child,marry my son Hazel"

"That's too much to ask grandpa,why would you want me when he could marry a lady on the same social level with him,I'm totally confused and don't know what to say because i  still find it hard to believe"Hazel blurted what she has been piling up inside her,baring her mind out to the old man so he could see reasons with her,she justs a nobody.

Why is everybody in his family trying to get her married to their son?

"I know it may sound unreasonable but i would not be sitting here with you,if i wasn't serious about this"

"I hardly know your son Grandpa,what if he doesn't like me and besides i don't want to get married to someone who doesn't love me and don't you think what you guys are doing is wrong,like who gets a wife for their child nowadays,that's totally absurd"Hazel stated,what they are doing is just not right.

"You see that's the difference between us child,we marry not because we want or love but we marry because we have responsibilities"

"Am sorry grandpa,but i refuse to be part of this arrangement,in as much as i  don't want to break your heart,I can't forsake my  happiness just for your son"Hazel stood up to leave,but stopped in her tracks when she heard the old man saying.

"You forget child,Love can be developed with time,think about it i will be back for your response and this time i  think a yes is what i need"The old man in a cold tone  said but not forgetting to smile to camouflage his sad face,he was thinking she was going to accept his son but the reverse was the case,he left with his guard while Hazel was still shocked at his last statement.

Unbelievable,did he just threaten me?

This old man threatened me?

Wow Hazel!,what have you just gotten yourself into?

Those questions were running through her mind as she was walking back home,she knew the rich mean and their silly character but what she wasn't expecting was for such an old man to threaten her.

What was his name again,Zaiden her fiance,Hazel scoffed at the guts of the Knights family,maybe she made a mistake by returning Mrs.Knights purse because this was just the cause of her present dilemma.

Then she remembered the fairy godmother's words,she had to find true love before a year is up or she ends up being an aggrieved soul once she dies.

Hazel knew true love was hard to come by these days,talkmore of getting married into a family of crazy psychopaths who were on the neck of each other.

"To hell with you Zaiden…."Hazel was cut short of words when a hand grabbed her,her  head hitting into a hard wall.

Was it a wall?

The strong scent of perfume made Hazel realize that it wasn't a wall she just pumped into,it was a man's chest,looking up to find the brightest of all  blue eyes staring down at her with a hard grin on his face.

Oh my God,Zaiden fucking Knights!

"Hello my dear fianceè"Zaiden bellowed at her,his hand still holding her arm in a strong grip as her breathing hitched up with her eyes staring at him,a mixture of surprise and disbelief clearly in them.

Hazel Blackwood,who are you?.
