Chapter 5 - Rules

I went to Mia's room to help her prepare for her trip. I'm going to miss you Mia, I told her when I walked into her room.

   We both hugged each other, I will miss you too but I will be gone just for a week, and Marley I forgot to ask, How did the interview go?. 

 Shit! I forgot that I told her I went on a job interview. It went well, I replied. 

 So did you get the job? Mia asked me. Yes I did, I replied to her.

  Congrats Marley! So where do you work? At a hotel restaurant. I answered.

  That's cool she said and went back to packing.

We both went to the hospital to pick Mrs Vivian , Dad had already arranged a car to take them to the airport. I gave Mia a big hug before I watched them disappear into twilight.

   I went back home to rest my head. I was about going into my apartment when a car stopped, a hefty man on a black suit came down from the car; Miss! My boss sent me to pick you up. I knew already, it was the devil that sent them to pick me up.. Tell your boss to go hell! I told them and was about moving when a hand grabbed me and put me in the car. I sat and kept quiet because there was nothing I could do. I took out my phone and googled about the Wills, I didn't realize when my mouth was open. The Wills were known for their Company they've owned for 30 years, which is the biggest company in NYC. The Wills have 2 kids. Rumors have it that their Heir; Logan Wills is a heartless billionaire

 After several minutes of driving, the car came to a halt. I looked around and saw that it was the same garage that had lot of cars then I knew we were at Logan's house. I kept wandering why he brought me here as I continued walking.

  When I got inside, I saw Logan seated on a sofa in the living room. It wasn't really a big lounge.

  He was seated with a wine in his hand,he was wearing a black shirt, with the top buttons loosened. A man was standing beside him with his head bowing down, he had some documents in his hand.

  Sit! I heard him say, I sat on one of the couch; Look Mr Wills I know you saved me but I thanked you enough but please I don't want to get married to you.

   Well Marley! That won't be possible because I own you now, And if you want me to let you go, you will have to pay me 200 million dollars.

   I sat quiet processing all what he said in my head.. 

 Sign the document, Marley. He said in his deep voice cutting me out of my thoughts.

  What documents are you talking about? I asked him.. Didn't you and my Dad fool me into signing a marriage contract already,I won't be signing any document.I told him

  Since you already signed the marriage contract, It means we're legally married.it's just a 6 months contract after this shit, you will be given a compensation.This is a marriage contract agreement and you need to sign it. He said handing me the documents!

  I looked at the documents in my hand and tears dropped down from my eyes. Look Marley, If there was a way out of this, I would be the first person to leave so stop acting like a kid. Logan said to me coldly.

 I went through the rules of this marriage;

(1). Don't get involved in my personal life (2). You must come with me to any event I attend (3). While we are in this marriage, you only listen to me alone and no one else

(4). No one must know that this isn't real,Not even your closest friend should find out.

  I coughed out loud, Did he write this himself! I thought to myself. I signed the paper and gave it back to him.

  And lastly Marley, you will be leaving with me from now on. What! Why? I screamed in my head.

  Because we have to make everybody believe that this is real.He said, as if he read my mind.

 Make who believe? I asked him because I wanted to understand. Everybody! He replied.

   And yes! Hair stylists, Fashion designers and some makeup artists are waiting downstairs to help you get prepared.

 Prepare for what Logan? I asked but he gave me no response.

  I went downstairs and met the glam team. Miss Marley,Mr Wills asked us to get you prepared. 

  I sat on the chair and let them do their magic on me.

 My makeup was a light one and my dress was a simple dinner gown. On getting out of the lounge, I saw a black limo and a car behind it,With some bodyguards.

   Not knowing Logan was already seated in the car, I walked to the direction of the car and got in.

  Hi! I said to him, But he didn't respond to my greeting. He sat and worked with his laptop. All through the driving, we were both silent. Then I summoned courage to ask him; Where are we going and what's the occasion? I asked Logan and surprisingly, He gave me answer.

  We are going to have dinner with my family!He said still glancing at his laptop.

   What! I screamed in my head. 

While we are there, you shut your mouth and let me do the talking. And don't you even fucking think of messing this up, or else your Aunt Vivian and Mia will be gone, he said giving me a serious glare.

 His words sent shivers down my spine, How does he know about Aunt Vivian and Mia, I thought in my head. Yes! I replied sternly.

 Good girl! He said and returned his face back to his laptop.And one last thing Marley, don't you fucking forget that you're my fiancée.

  I nodded my head at what he said like a little girl. How was I supposed to act like am engaged to this devil. I thought to myself.

  The car finally came to a stop. Logan emerged from the car and walked to the other side and opened the door gently for me.

  He took out his hand to help me get down from the car. I wondered why he was acting this way then I thought they were cameras around. I gave him my hand and he helped me down.

 It was a huge mansion, I looked around and saw hefty guards positioned in front of the mansion, they were all dressed in uniform.

   Logan took my arms into his as we both walked into the mansion, with the guards bowing their heads leading Logan and I into the mansion.

  When we got into the mansion, my lips parted in astonishment of the beauty of the mansion.

  The maids led Logan and I to the dining room.

 Where are they? Logan asked one of the maids coldly.

  They will be down in a minute, Sir! The maid replied.

  We both glanced up as we saw his mother coming down.

 Hi! Logan's mother came up to me and said while Logan just stood there starring at us.

  Good evening ma'am, I greeted her. What's your name? She asked me.

 I'm Marley Grey, Nice to finally meet you.

Nice to meet you too Marley! When Logan told me he will be bringing you, I was so happy and I never knew you were this beautiful.

  Thank you! I replied. We were about going to seat down when his grandfather came down, at first I thought he was Logan's father because he wasn't old like I imagined him to be.

  Hello there young lady!he said walking down the stairs. He walked up to me.

 My name is Marley Sir!  Well Marley,Nice to meet you. Good job Logan, she is very pretty and I know for sure that she will make a good wife. Grandpa said and chuckled.
