MARRY ME

"I want to marry your master"

I knew he was the right person for my plan and I needed to gain his trust. I needed to prove to those who mocked me that I could live without depending on anyone. And I would take revenge on all of them one by one.

The man looked worried but his master looked unmoved like he was expecting something like that. I wasn't worried. I was a beautiful girl and I had confidence in my beauty. I tried to stand up from the bed and removed the drip from my hand and walked towards them. The man looked hesitant but he stayed still.

"I just want a contract marriage that would last for ONLY a year."

I said stressing on the only. Finally the man sitting in the chair moved to sit well. He stared deep into my eyes and opened his mouth to say something

"A contract marriage for a year?"

He rested back on the chair and looked at the roof like he was thinking of something.

"Why"

He asked me and I looked into his eyes and smiled a sad smile then I looked down at my hands.

"I want to take revenge."

I looked up with determination in my eyes and continued.

" I want to make all of them pay."

I clenched my hands and a tear run down my cheeks. I wiped it away quickly and smiled again.

"A one year contract it is then."

He said.

I smiled and bow down to say thank you. And he nodded.

"May I know your name?"

I asked . He looked into my eyes and answered.

"Henry Young"

He said and I looked at him and also told him mine.

"Laura Lynch".

He frowned a little and thought for a while before saying.

"I think now it's Laura Young. Because you are now Mrs. Young."

I chuckled hearing what he said. Even though it was true, It felt funny to be called Mrs. Young.

The man standing told Henry something and he told me to rest because he had business to deal with,I agreed and lay down on my bed. Shortly after I fell into a deep slumber.

When I opened my eyes,it was around 10:00 in the morning,and I was in a luxurious room by now. I was also lying on a king sized bed. The room smelled masculine.

And I stood up and walked to the washroom. I opened the door and went straight to the bathtub. I undressed quickly and dipped myself in the warm water,it seemed the bathtub was already prepared for me. After the refreshing bath,I went to the wardrobe and found only male clothes. I took one boxer pant and a long sleeve shirt and put it on. After that I went downstairs to have breakfast.

When I was led by the man from yesterday who introduced himself to be Eric Wage to the dinning hall,I saw that there was a lot of food but I was the only one there. Eric later told me that Henry was already at work. So I asked if he ate anything before leaving but Eric said he did not so I told Eric to later send me to his work so I can give him some food.

I finished my food quickly and went upstairs to pick up one of his pants to wear. His shirt reached my thigh and his pants were practically scraping the floor so I folded the bottom upwards. And I went to the kitchen and made him pancakes with tea and left for his work, Eric chose a personal driver for me called Kai that drove me to Henry's work.

When I got there, I was surprised. A huge building with the letters HY written at the top. It was the biggest company in the city. I entered and Kai took me straight to the highest floor and knocked on a door and opened it. I saw Henry talking to a young girl seriously whiles the girl just continued looking at his face and not even paying attention, showing clearly that she liked him.

I just went straight to him to give him the breakfast I made for him. The young girl looked at me weirdly from up to down and up again looking disgusted. Henry just raised a brow at the food I handed him and his eyes moved to my dressing,and he looked confused.

"Why are you wearing my clothes."

He asked and I told him because I had no clothes.He looked at Kai and instructed him to take me shopping and handed him his credit card. He took the food and I followed Kai out of there. I later asked Kai who that girl was and he told me that it was his secretary. I shrugged and continued walking.

AT THE MALL *LOUIS' FASHION*

"I want this one but it's too expensive"

I said. But Kai told me to buy it if I really wanted it because Henry wouldn't be happy if he finds out that I was hesitant to spend his money. So I ended up buying a lot. Even Kai told me to buy a red lingerie because Henry loved the colour red and I ended up buying it too.

When we got home,I was exhausted and went to shower. I came out wrapped in a towel. When I sat in front of the dressing mirror to change into my pajamas, Henry came in and I stood up startled and ended up yelling at him to learn how to knock. He just looked at me blankly and smirked,he came closer,bent and whispered softly into my ear.

"This is my room,why do you expect me to knock?"
