The Day Of The Contract

Just like any other day this day was nothing special for me, it's a bit different but nothing new in it except that from this day onwards I'll be Mrs.Eleanor. All this started on this day about thirty days ago...

"𝘐 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 2 𝘥𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘴" the young man continued wiping his gun with a silk white handkerchief

"𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘨𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘺 𝘣𝘪𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘥𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘭𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘱𝘵𝘦𝘥" the middle-aged man replied.

" 𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘴𝘪𝘳- 𝘪- " begged Mr. Ralph

" 𝘴- 𝘴𝘪𝘳?" Mr. Ralph asked confused while picking up the papers from the ground.

" 𝘐 𝘴𝘢𝘪𝘥 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘥𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴. 𝘐 𝘸𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘺 𝘧**𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘴 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯 " replied the young man shooting the flower vase on a table

" 10 𝘮𝘪𝘯. 𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 10 𝘮𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘦𝘥 " the man roared. The lady and Mr. Ralph rushed out of the hall as soon as they could and went out of the huge mansion towards the maid cottages. Mr. Ralph flew open the door. I was sitting there reading a book on the edge of a small mattress, he, rushed towards me and threw the papers in his hands along with a pen on my face

" 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘸," said Mr. Ralph losing up his tie a little

"𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦?" I asked

but before I could let out a word, My mother dashed towards me and groped my hair

" 𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 " I plead

" 𝘪𝘵'𝘴 𝘔𝘳𝘴.𝘢𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘢 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘴𝘦 " she replied letting go of me

" 𝘐 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘔𝘳𝘴.𝘢𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘢" I replied finding the pen near me. I picked up the paper and without a second thought, I signed them with my quivering hands. Both Mr. Ralph and Mrs. Aelia rushed back to the Hall and handed the papers to the young man sitting there.

"𝘚𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘥𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘦𝘥𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘨𝘰𝘸𝘯. 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘰𝘳 " The young man said before heading out

" 𝘸𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭! 𝘞𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘪𝘳! " Pleaded Mr. Ralph

Just like that, I was sold in exchange for a few million to someone I don't know or ever met in my life. I can't escape and have nowhere to go. It is my fate and I will have to accept it one way or another

A soft knock appeared on my door, I knew it was Jacob, My best friend, and My right-hand man. It was time for me to collect the debt, personally.

𝘼 𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙝 𝙖𝙜𝙤 ( 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩) :

"𝘚𝘪𝘳, 𝘐 𝘴𝘶𝘨𝘨𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘯𝘦𝘸" Plead Jacob

" 𝘐'𝘮 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦. 𝘋𝘪𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘭 𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘣𝘢𝘵𝘦?" I asked

" 𝘕𝘰 𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯'𝘵. 𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘰𝘭𝘥 𝘩𝘢𝘨 𝘪𝘴 𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘮𝘦 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘢𝘯𝘦" Jacob replied

" 𝘐 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘸𝘰 𝘥𝘢𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵𝘦𝘳. 𝘖𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘱𝘵𝘦𝘥?" I asked with curiosity

"𝘠𝘦𝘴, 𝘩𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘸𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 𝘩𝘦𝘳" Jacob replied

" 𝘐 𝘴𝘦𝘦. 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬?" I asked with the slightest amount of curiosity visible in my eyes

" 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘯'𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘩𝘦𝘳" Jacob replied

"𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵? 𝘞𝘩𝘺? 𝘚𝘪𝘳 𝘴𝘩𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘩 50 𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘰𝘯!" Jacob protested

" 𝘴𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘺 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘺? " I asked

"𝘯𝘰 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘩𝘦𝘳?" he asked cooling off his tone

" 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘳? " I asked changing the topic

" 𝘞𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘳𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨" Jacob replied

" 𝘐 𝘴𝘦𝘦" I replied

" 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘢𝘴 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳" Jacob complimented me to trigger me, he knew very well I do not like being complimented.

"𝘚𝘩𝘶𝘵 𝘶𝘱" I shrugged off his arm from my shoulder

"𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦?" Jacob asked with a concerned gaze on me, I have never seen him sounding so serious unless he is at work or angry, nothing ever made this man lose up his clown act. He was always concerned about me and that is why he was the only person I ever considered trusting blindly, to ease his worry I shook off the tense atmosphere and replied

" 𝘠𝘦𝘴. 𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘤𝘬, 𝘐 𝘨𝘰𝘵 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘧𝘧 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰 " I said

" 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘴𝘰. 𝘚𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘺𝘦𝘵" replied Jacob

" 𝘸𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘦𝘦, 𝘑𝘢𝘤𝘰𝘣 " I whispered under my breath.

" Come on Maximus, lose up the grumpy attitude," he said putting his hand on my shoulder.

" did you find anything about her? " I asked, changing the topic

" No " he replied and his tone suddenly went dull from cheerful.

" Well, let's get over the wedding show," I said putting on my coat.
