AEIOUS POINT OF VIEW

"Mom! I said, I. DON'T. WANT!! I'll hang up now!"

(Hello?! Hello?! Claudette!) and I hang up the phone.

My parents are so annoying. They're forcing me to marry someone I don't like and even worse, someone I don't know. They want me to marry the son of their business partner and they're the only ones who will benefit. They didn't even think about my feelings or if I'm happy with their decision or not.

I am Aeious Claudette Gray, 24 years old the only daughter of Nix and Alisha Gray, owner of Gray Enterprises.

All I know now is I need to find a way to stop their arrange marriage plans between me and Axle.

Axle Jazz Amadeo the heir of Amadeo Corporation, son of Renz and Klodia Amadeo.

"Girl, I think I have found a way to stop your Engagement with Axle." my best friend Jean said.

Jean Aekishea Schneider is my childhood best friend. Also, she is the daughter of one of our business partner.

We're at the mall right now. Today is Sunday and we planned to hangout to relax ourselves.

"How?" I asked her.

"We just need to find someone who will pretend to be your Fiancé and you must bring him on your Engagement Party tomorrow and announce that you and him are getting married." she explained.

"You're really my best friend Jean." I said smiling. She just winked at me.

I already graduated BS in Business Administration recently and gonna take PEPT soon. I also started a business. It's a bakery shop. Actually, I learned to bake when I was 13 because my grandmother taught me how bake. Our bakery has a lot of branches worldwide.

"But the problem is, where can we find someone-- Ouch!" I didn't finished my words because someone bumped into me and my belongings fell.

"Sorry Miss." he said and gave me my bag because he helped me pick up my things. After he gave it to me he left.

I noticed that he dropped a card so I picked it up. It's his Driver's License.

Clint Jersey Bartolome

He has a nice name and he also looks good.

"What's that?" Jean asked me when she noticed I was holding a card.

"Girl, I think I already found someone who will pretend to be my Fiancé." I said and handed to her the License.

"You mean, that guy?"

"Exactly. Let's follow him." I said and started walking to follow him.

"Hey Aeious! Wait for me!"

I and Jean followed Clint until he was intercepted by a group of men while holding a baseball bat. As far as I know, we are in an alley now while leaning on a pole so I and Jean cannot be seen.

"Hey Clint where is our money now?" said by a man full of tattoo's on his arms while patting the bat on his hand. Later the group of men pulled over and a man wearing a hoodie and sunglasses came in front of Clint and I think it's their leader.

He pulled off his hoodie and remove his sunglasses. He grinned.

"Hey Clint. Long time. No see." he said.

"Mr. Cameron." Clint answered. Then two man came to Clint and hold him. I started to feel nervous even Jean. She always whispered to me that we should go home because she's afraid that something might happen to us.

"I have given you a long time to pay the money you owe me. You said I'll give you a year to pay me, go ahead I gave you. You even promised! But what now? It's been two years but still nothing!" Mr. Cameron shouted right in front of Clint's face and he shivered.

"I ordered my Men to watch over you and follow you. But what? You don't seem to care. It's as if you don't even remember that you still have a debt to pay and you're still having fun!!" Mr. Cameron shouted again and hit Clint's head hard.

"You need to learn a lesson for not keeping your promise." then Mr. Cameron started to hit Clint Stomach and after that he move backward and his men started to hit Clint with their baseball bats. Clint can't get away and fight because Mr. Cameron's two men are holding him.

I started to see blood in Clint's face and I can't see him like that. I stood up and was about to approach where they were to stop them from what they're doing to Clint when Jean held my hand.

"What do you think your doing?!"she whispered shouting at me. I remove her hand from my hand.

"Jean, just trust me ok? I promise nothing bad will happen to me." she nodded.

"Ok but take care okay?" she whispered and I nodded.

And I started to approach them. A man was about to hit Clint again but I blocked in front of Clint so I was the one hit in the back instead of him being hit. It hurts a bit but I need to stay Fierce.

"Who the hell are you?" said by the man with a lot of tattoos in his hands.

"Do I need to say my name?" I said boldly and remained calm. I gave them a cold expression.

"Ohhhh you even bring your friend with you. Or she's the love of your life? HAHAHAHA." Mr. Cameron said and approached me.

"Is this your woman?" Mr. Cameron asked Clint while walking around me. "Wow, you have good taste in women huh? And she looks expensive." and he just touched my face.

"Don't. Touch. Me. You look dirty." I said and get a piece wipes inside my bag and pretend to wipe my face where he touched me.

"Stop wasting your time there! Punish him!" Mr. Cameron shouted at his men.

And when I saw a man starting to hit Clint again I talked.

"Lay another finger on him and I will not hesitate to stop you from living ng any longer." i said emphatically.

"And who are you to threaten me?" Mr. Cameron asked me.

"Darling, that wasn't a threat. It was just a plain harmless warning." I answered.

"I'm serious."

"And you think I'm playing ?"

"How dare you talked back!!" Mr. Cameron shout and was about to hit me but Clint interrupted.

"Mr. Cameron! Don't you dare hit her."

"What do this man owe you?" I asked Mr. Cameron seriously.

"Nothing. He just happened to owe me One Million pesos. Not that big deal." he answered.

"Miss this has nothing to do with you. You should just go and leave." Clint said.

"Just One Million. How cheap?" I said and opened my sling bag, I took my credit card and handed it to him.

"Here take my Card. It contains 1.5 million pesos and you take care of what you want to do with the money and by the way, the passcode is 7239905." I said and handed him the card.

He was about to get the card when I took it back.

"I'll gave you the money in one condition." I said fiercely.

"What is it?"

"Don't ever come to him again. Note, I have an eyes on you and and when you don't comply with my condition you'll end up dying." I added.

"Fine." I handed him my card.

"Now leave." I commanded them and finally they left.

Jean approached me and asked if I'm fine.

"Yes Jean I'm fine. Please help me release him." I said to her and she approached Clint.

I was about to approach Clint too when I felt dizzy and found myself lying on the floor. Later on everything went black.
