Imprisoned by the CEO

“You will have to marry me and bear me a child.”  “What the fuck?!” Logic flew out of the window when Grace heard him say that. “Excuse me, what did you just say?”  Maybe, she was the one who had heard him wrong. It could have been anything except marrying him and giving him a child.  “You heard me,” Christian tsked, “but I’ll repeat it. Marry me and have my child.”  Her mouth opened and gaped at me. In her mind, she was trying to make sense about what was going on. How in the world had it come to be? What in the world could make the situation come to this?!  “No?” Grace replied, but then realized that the word was not firm enough. “No.” she said again. Christian frowned, and it seemed so innocent like he had not asked her the most unbelievable thing. “Why not? I thought you wanted to help me. You offered.”  “I offered my help, my brain, my support not my,” she hesitated, “stomach!”  What was the word for it? “Womb,” he provided.  “Yes!” She slapped her hand on the table. “You don’t get my womb!”   “I don’t?” He challenged.  “No!”  “What if helping me out means Lorelai coming out of a coma?”  Grace felt her heart drop. “What?”  Christian nodded. “What if helping me out, agreeing to what you have to do for me, means bringing your grandmother out of the, that she is in?”  ******** Grace  was one strong girl and with the people she put her trust in, that was only a small number, she knew she could conquer the world, or at least she thought to herself.  When her best friend proposed a deal that could change their lives, she made a decision that was going to be mutually beneficial to both of them.  But one renovation led to many and everything has been just a game, a manipulation from him. Everything was full of deceit, lies, planning and plotting against her. Every single thing, right down the fact that only he had been her friend…  Everything was a lie and she had been living it, willingly.  Tropes; Friends to lovers, office romance, best friends, frenemies, marriage of convenience, possessive villainous and morally gray heroes!

The Conquerer.

Grace sighed. The job was tougher than she thought but at least it was over now so she could go home. Once again she was one of the last people to leave the office but she was not ashamed about it.

Romeo waited for her and she thanked him for that. He had made her life much easier. She patiently sat in the back. The night was not a good time to drive and the number of drunk drivers only increased.

She scrolled through the phone and almost scrolled by but her eyes moved back to the post above and so did her fingers.

~ Forbes added Christian Miller in the hot list of billionaires. Adding the total amount of assets possessed by the family, The Miller family's net worth a hundred and forty Billion dollars. ~

"A hundred and forty Billion?" She whispered in amazement, "is it bad that I envy him?" She sighed and placed the phone face down. There was no need for her to think this.

They have not kept any contact over three years so there are chances that he would not keep a contact with her even now.

Her thumb hovered over the button of search. She considered making a quick second search on what her friend was up to.

She gulped and pressed go.

She read over the headlines and it was enough for her to understand what was going on in his life and what he was doing. The Christian that was not once interested, even slightly, in the busiest that his family carried out the generations has now grown his empire into billions and had conquered over Europe and Asia.

He had practically conquered the pharmaceuticals, hotels, restaurants, motors shops that did the outsourcing of materials for automobiles and what Fing not!

She scoffed, here she was working her ass off and he was taking the weekend off and vacationing.

Was it just her or the differences between them and grew more than she ever imagined them to be.

She sighed as the car came to stop. "Thank you, Romeo. Good night."

"Good night, Madam." He tipped and mocked Saluted to her making her smile slightly.

She watched the car roll on and was about to turn around when she saw a familiar bike. It was a vintage British bike.

It couldn't be. . . .now could it?

Grace shook her at the possibility. That would not happen. The media would have gone crazy if the billionaire returned.

She smiled at the watchman who opened the door for her and moved to the lift straight. Her shoulders ached and called for a good ol warm bath.

The best part of the apartment was the jacuzzi.

The doors opened to her floor and just as she stepped out. Someone else stepped in. Without looking at the Stanger, she went straight to the door of her apartment.

She felt weird. It was like a pull. She turned back there was no one there and even the doors of the lift closed by now.

Oh well, she opened the door to a grinning Lorelai. "Hello you!" Her Nana greeted. "So it's a biker now?"

"What?" Grace frowned, "Did you drink again?"

Lorelai groaned. "You kids are boring. I won't intervene. Good night."

"Good night." Grace muttered under her breath as she watched her grandmother walk to her room.

What was that?
