Chapter 3: We're Done

Sofia's POV:

I was so pissed because of that crazy man! Damn it!

He's been bothering me for almost a week. He also disturbs my job search. Can't he understand that I really don't want to accept what he offers?

"How's your day?"

"Baby!" I almost got wet from the water because Alexus suddenly appeared again. He saw me watering a plant here, then suddenly startled.

"Hahaha do you agree?"

"You agree with your face!"

"Please," he begged.

I let go of the hose I was holding and faced him calmly.

"Alexus, why are you such a naughty person? How many times have I told you that I will not accept what you offer?"

"I will pay you,"

"You'll pay me? You see that habit of yours? Where did you see a woman accepting payment just to get pregnant, huh? Besides that it lowers the dignity of women, it was also a bad idea!" I keep on declining his fvckin' offers, but he's really desperate!

"I'm willing to pay Million Dollar for the baby,"

I told him my reasons but still he keeps on insisting what he wants!

Then—wait, what? As in MILLION DOLLAR? Woah! That's a big amount of money!

"Where are you going to get that much money?" I asked him suspiciously.

Yes, he's handsome but it is not obvious from his appearance that he is as rich as he was saying. Imagine him, paying a million dollar for the baby he's asking?

Wait, isn't he a member of the syndicate? Yes, the syndicates that sell children to the rich who wants to have children? Oh my God!

"I'm telling you! You're a member of a male syndicate! This is what you deserve!"

I took the hose that I put down, and opened it again, then he was the one I watered.

"Sofia, stop it!"

"Stop your face! You're a bad person and you should be watered!" I said as I continued watering him.

"What are you talking about?" He asked angrily. I raised my eyebrows because of his reaction.

"You're a slave with the syndicates that sell young babies to the rich,"

"Stop it!"

He tried to snatch the hose I was holding and watered it for him but of course, I didn't let him get it from me.

DUG. DUG. DUG.

Wait, what was this? I was stunned by the rapid beating of my heart, causing me to release the water hose I was holding.

How can my chest not throb when he hugs me from behind, right?

"I told you to stop it, now it's your turn! Hahahaha!" He's now laughing evilly.

"Alexus stop!"

"What are the two of you doing? You're wasting the water, stop that!" Alexus and I were both stunned by Mommy's sudden appearance.

"You two are soaking wet, come in here and get dressed!"

"Sorry aunt,"

"It's you," I blamed Alexus.

"Why me? You're the first one who started it!" he's blaming me.

"Whatever!" I rolled my eyes over him.

After I got dressed I went straight to the living room where Mommy and Alexus were talking.

"Auntie, can I take Sofia to my condo?" Heasked mom's permission.

"What are you going to do there?" Mommy's question seemed thrilling.

"We just have something to talk about,"

"Of course son, even if you don't bring her back to me as long as you take good care of her, it's alright with me."

I almost lost my balance because of what I heard from mom. I can't believe that she really said those words to this crazy man!

"Mom!" I scolded mommy, because of what she's saying— it is not good anymore. If she gave me right away, it seems like she had known Alexus for a long time.

If mommy only knew what's that crazy man was asking for me, I don't know if she would give mercy to this desperate one.

"I don't want to go with you Alexus. No way, never!"

"Baby, maybe your conversation with your boyfriend is important."

"Yes aunt, it's really important." He suddenly replied. I looked at him fiercely—can't he see that mommy and I was still talking?

"All right, baby, go with him." My mother pushes me to go with that desperate Alexus.

"Mom—"

I am so annoyed right now while riding with him in his car.

No, mom forced me to accompany him. Exactly! It's mom who forced me to be with him!

"What are we going to do in your condo? Are you going to rape me?" I asked him straight forward.

BEEEEP! BEEEEP!

"Ouch!" I complained because he suddenly braked causing me to bump slightly.

"What are you talking about?" He asked with disbelief.

"I am just asking!"

"I'll explain to you everything later." He made a serious promise. I just didn't say anything, maybe later because we were still in schocked—or should I say I'm still in schocked, it's a pity for my beauty if I die early, right?

"We're here," I looked up at the tall building where we stopped.

"Is this yours?" I asked.

"Yeah, I owned these condos over here." He simply said.

"Okay." I also answered him simply.

He thought maybe he would fool me by simply saying, 'I owned these condos over here' of course I'm not the type of woman who quickly believes—unless it's proven.

"Have a sit," he said and even offered me to sit in a sofa.

"You're not pretending, aren't you?" I asked him.

"I am not," he replied with a smile.

"So now, do you agree?" He then again asked me. Does this man don't know how to understand that no matter how hard he'll tried to convince me with his offer, I won't accept it? Ugh!

"What are you? Of course not,"

"Okay, as what you say. Here I will get you something to drink." He went straight to his kitchen.

Is this really a condo? The size. It's even bigger than mommy and I's house, then he's the only one here? Wow. Just wow.

looked at the picture frames on the cabinet one by one.

"They're probably his parents,"

"Yes, they are."

"Why aren't you with them?"

"Because they are at home, I only went home once and the last time I went home was when they asked me for a grandchild."

He bent down and said that he seemed to be just being forced into that baby thingy.

"Oh? How about her, is she your sister?" I pointed to the separate picture frame where the two of them smiled together as they stared at each other.

"Nope. She's Nicole, my 3 years girlfriend." I suddenly felt my chest tightened because of what he said.

"She's a model abroad. We only meet once, maybe once a year." He answered sadly.

"So, you have a girlfriend. Why don't you just ask her for a child, right?"

"She's busy, and as a model she can't get pregnant. It will ruin her career."

"Based on how you offered me a million dollars to get pregnant, you are really rich. So, what's the point of living her dreams if you can afford to raise her, right?"

His girlfriend is also different. She already has the richest boyfriend after all, she still works and is really in another country?

"It's her passion." He answered simply. Based on how he defends his girlfriend, he really loves her. Nicole's lucky.

"Why are you in such a hurry to have a child? How old are you?"

"It's not me, it's my parents."

"Oh,"

"How old are you again?"

"25,"

"You're old enough,"

"Hey, I'm just four years older than you!"

"Even though. How old is Nicole, again?"

"She's 23,"

"Oh, and still don't want to get married yet? " His face became sad again because of what I said.

"S-sorry, did I say something bad?"

"No, it's okay." He said with a forced smile.

"If I agree to what you want, what will be the result for you?"

"Of course I'll be happy, especially mama and papa, because I can give them a grandchild—and they will no longer be forced me to marry the daughter of his comparator."

"Alexus,"

"Yes?"

"I will agree to be the mother of your child, as long as you marry me." Hahaha let's see what his reaction will be.

"Is a million dollar not enough? Why do you still want a wedding? To have a big inheritance, right?"

The words he uttered seemed sharp to me. I feel it sinking into my body one by one. It hurts that much. I just felt my tears flowing down to my cheeks.

"I'm sorry Sofia, you know I have a girlfriend right? I love her, and she's the only woman I want to marry."

"Then, we're done! From now on, please stop bothering me anymore! I'm begging you, please leave me alone!"

After I said that to his face, I quickly left his condo, it was good and it was still open otherwise I might not have been able to get out so quickly.

How dare him to tell me that? First of all, I don't look like I need his money.

Secondly, I was just joking and wanted to see his reaction that's why I said those words to him!

How dare him! Just how dare him!

Don't he just dared to follow me again, or else I'll kick him on his balls, damn him!
