DIANA

Diana stared coldly at her parents. "I don't want to get married".

Her father spoke angrily, " You have no choice". He needed her to get married as soon as possible to her destined soulmate, someone who could stare into her eyes without nothing happening to him. "I have already said you need to get married soon and to someone who is not afraid of you".

"Dad where do I look to find that kind of person. You and mom are keeping a secret from me and I am going find that out" Diana complained angrily.

Her mom and father sighed. Her father said, "You would find out when you turn 25, for now do not ask any more questions about it". He stood up and left.

Diana stared at her father's retreating back. She sighed deeply then turned to her mother. "Well, just like my father, my own mind is made up. I can give you guys a grandchild if that is what you want" she stood, picked her bag then left.

"Diana be reasonable, that is not what we mean" her mom called after her.

Diana, a young and cold self-made CEO of one of the top enterprises in her country. She had always wondered for years what her parents kept a secret from her. She thought the issue of her getting married would die down after a while, but now that they brought it up, she had to do something about it.

She walked into her office and began scrolling through the documents on her table but she could not focus, how was she to get married if she had not had any contact with the opposite sex all her life and those she had worked with in the past where afraid of looking up at her. She just had to give birth then no need to get married.

Thinking of which, she had to meet with a client half an hour later and she was so pissed off.

An hour later, she sat down in a restaurant, waiting for the client to show up. He had notified her that he would be an hour later, so she arrived 30 minutes earlier an ordered coffee.

A young man walked up to her with a carefree playful smile on his lips. She glanced at him and frowned but he remained unmoved. "Hey, beautiful" he smiled at her. Seeing her expression, he sat down in front of her.

"Do you need something?" she asked with a frown on her face.

"Feisty. The name's Ivan. You look lost in your thoughts." he glanced at her.

Diana unintentionally spilled, "I do not see how it is your business that I am waiting here for a client, while thinking of how to give birth to a child". Realizing what she had said, she stood up to leave.

He rushed after her then held her hand to stop her. "Maybe I can help".

"Help? I don't need help from a stranger" she stated.

"Don't think of me as a stranger. We both can benefit from it"

She looked at him, he looked quite serious. "How is that possible?".

"My father thinks I am useless and wants me to get married but I do not have interest in girls. I could just be a guy you have sex with to get pregnant and in the future if my father continues to pester me, your child be it a boy or a girl can can take over everything I own" he explained.

She thought for a while then replied, "My child does not need your wealth or anything". She opened her car door the he stopped her again.

"I am not asking you to decide immediately, take my card and give me a call if you eventually decide" he handed her the card then turned around and walked back into the restaurant.

She smirked at her his departing figure then shove the card in her bag. She called the client and cancelled the meeting, she had never liked waiting for people no matter how important it was.

She drove back to her company. As she sat down to continue her work, her mind kept on drifting what Ivan had said.

"He is the only guy bold enough to approach me and he seems sweet. Uhh, what are you thinking about Diana?" she thought to herself.

She had no friends to turn to for advice, her parents where not reliable enough and she felt it would also be nice to have a little companion.

Later that day, she did not go to her parents house as usual, rather she decided to go to a loud place to clear her head. She drove and finally stopped the car in front of a bar. She got down and walked in, everyone turned to look at the stunning lady in a suit. Not being used to the attention, she walked to the bar area and sat down.

A bartender stood in front of her and asked, "What would like to drink?".

"I am new here, so I do not know which drink to take. Just get me something that can clear my head and relieve stress" she said.

He nodded and left to go bring the strongest drink they had left. He handed her the drink when he got back and left to attend to others.

Diana drank it in one gulp then called the bartender to get her another one. "Ma'am, are you sure you can handle it?" the bartender asked. She glared at him, making him shiver then he left to get another shot.

After several shots, she became tipsy. She searched her back and then brought out her phone and a card. Seeing the familiar card, she dialed the number and the person on the other line answered on the the third ring.

"Hello?" Ivan waited for the person to respond. After few minutes of no response, he was about to end the call when he heard the familiar voice.

"Is the deal still on?" she asked him.

Ivan paused for a moment before responding. "Is everything okay? You sound drunk"

She mumbled few words to herself but did not answer him. "Forget it, then"

"Could you give your phone to the nearest bartender?" he asked.

Without much thought, she handed her phone to the bartender that served her. "Sorry to disturb you, but which bar are you in?" he asked, a little anxious.

The bartender looked up at the woman before answering, "Golden Havens".

"Alright, please make sure she is fine till I get there. I am Ivan, by the way" he said and ended the call. He immediately got into his car and drove down to the bar. When he arrived, he immediately went straight to the bar area and found her. People around him immediately recognized who he is and began whispering, "Wow, he is so handsome in person" a lady said. "Why is he walking towards that woman?" another asked. "She is probably one of his girlfriends, but she looks drunk".

Ivan ignored them then stood in front of Diana. "Let's go"

Diana looked up at him and frowned, "Why are you here?".

He turned to the bartender, "Are you the I spoke to?"

The dumbstruck bartender nodded at him. "When he said his name is Ivan, I did not think it would be the Ivan Meyer" he said to himself.

"What did she have?" he asked.

"Umm, sh-she asked me to get her the strongest we have" the bartender stutterred.

Ivan sighed, "Which is?"

"Spirytus vodka" the bartender answered.

"Alright. Here, take this" he handed his car keys to him.

Ivan turned back to Diana, "Get up, let's go". She did not respond to him, so he bent down to her level, then carried her in bridal style, not minding those present. The astonished bartender quickly picked up Diana stuffs and followed behind them.

He quickly opened the passenger sit for Ivan to lay Diana inside. Diana, who was drunk, suddenly pulled Ivan towards her and kissed him.
