He offered to give her a restaurant and money in exchange for her time and act in front of his family.

Will he still let Athena go or keep her?

My Fake Girlfriend Chapter 1 1

"Athena, we need two salmon steak." The head chef said and I gave him a thumbs up. I quickly started to do my thing. I'm a chef in a really famous fine dining restaurant called Skye. It's a western fine dining restaurant.

I always wanted to be a chef and now I'm 25 years old getting my dream job. My dad is a famous chef too and he has his own restaurant in New York. My family are all in New York while I'm alone in LA.

Why? I want to have my own experience without leeching to my dad. I don't want him to help me and I don't want people to hire me because of my dad. My two brothers came here to LA every three months to check on me because my parents worried too much.

We always call every 3 days, just to check on me. I'm glad that I have a family who supported me in everything I do. My dad taught me all the basic things and I'm grateful for it. My mom is a fashion designer, she used to hope that I would be like her but she supports me one hundred percent. As for my brothers, the oldest Jayson is an architect and my second brother Jackson is a doctor.

"Athena, 3 carbonara and another salmon steak!" The head chef said and I quickly do my thing. Order kept coming and there's no stopping.

"1 Lobster mac and cheese."

"2 Lasagna."

"1 Mushroom soup."

"3 Fish and Chips."

I bet I cooked all the food on the menu tonight. I'm not complaining at all, I love my job but sometimes I just need 5 minutes to breath.

"Athena, come on!" I passed the playe and he gave me a nod. There's 5 professional chefs here and we all worked good as a team. Order kept coming and suddenly I was stopped by Minnie. She's our manager and she gestured me to stop everything.

"Is everything okay?" I asked.

"Please follow me." She said in a serious tone. I gulped nervously because I'm pretty I didn't make any mistake.

"But.. can it wait?" I asked.

"It's the boss' order."

"Boss?" I asked.

"Yes, our boss." Minnie gestured me to follow her fast. She led me out from the kitchen to the second floor.

"Did I do something wrong?"

"I don't know, please keep up the pace.." I followed her up and she lef me to the small meeting room. She knocked the door and gestured me to go in. I opened the door and my eyes widen.

"Anderson?" I looked at him disbelief.

"Hello Athena." He smirked as he got up from his seat.

"What are you doing here, Ares?" I asked.

Ares Anderson is my highschool friend. We're friends nothing more. He's the most popular guy in school. He's a playboy and he always change his girls like he changed his clothes. Now that he's all grown up, girls leeching to him for his money.

He's still popular until now, he's all over the magazine and all over the celebrity news.

"Athena, how are you?" He asked as he pulled me into a hug. I looked at him suspiciously.

"Sit down, please." He said.

"You're my boss?" I asked and he nodded.

"Okay, that kinda make sense."

"You like your job?"

"Of course, or else I won't work here." I stated the obvious.

"Because you're fired." He said and my jaw dropped. I looked at him confused because I'm pretty sure that I didn't do anything wrong.

"Did I do something wrong?" I asked.

"From now on, I want you to be my fake girlfriend." He said like it's nothing.

"Excuse me?" I looked at him disbelief.

"My fake girlfriend." He repeated and I looked at him coldly.

"I heard it, I'm not deaf."

"Agree to it then.." He said proudly like I'm going to agree to it that easy.

"No." I said and Ares' face was priceless. He didn't see it coming. I bet he never got any rejection before.

"No?"

"No, I'm not doing your stupid plan. Why would I be your fake girlfriend? You can pick other woman, they will do it in a heartbeat." I said and he sighed.

"That's the point, Athena. I don't those girls, I want you to be my fake girlfriend. I know you can keep a secret and I already checked your background. You have a clean and good background to begin with. Your father-"

"You're looking into my background?" I cut him and I wanted to smack the shit out of him.

"Of course, I need a likable girlfriend to bring home to my family."

"What if I can't keep a secret and why me?"

"You can, I know you're capable of this." He smirked and I rolled my eyes.

"No."

"You have to, I already fired you."

"That's not fair, Ares! You can't just fire me and expect me to.. agree with you!" I crossed my arms in front of my chest.

"You have to."

"No. I'll just look for another job."

"You can't, I bought a place for your new restaurant. Just take it as my payment for you to be my fake girlfriend." My jaw dropped again and I sat down because I can't believe that this is happening.

"No, I don't need your money or that restaurant."

"It won't be hard, I promise. All you need to do is stand beside me and treat me like I'm your boyfriend. I'll pay you too and give you this restaurant for free." He said and I looked at him speechless.

"No."

"How about I already told your dad that you have a new restaurant that you buy with your own money?" He smiled.

"You did not!"

"Call him.." He said and I sighed.

"How long do you need me for?"

"6 months." He said as he sat down in front of me.

"That restaurant is mine by then?"

"Yes. It's all yours."

"Will there be a contract of something?" I asked. He took out a file from a bag behind him. He gave it to me.

"What is this?"

"Contract and some regulations for this.. relationship." He pointed at the both of us. I opened the contract and he already wrote my name and that we will be dating for 6 months. I turned the page and there's rules too.

He doesn't want to make this relationship public. He wants me to join him in all family related events. He wants me to not contact him for personal matters. He doesn't want me to tell anyone. He doesn't want me to have a boyfriend by the time we're dating. He wants me to act like a good girlfriend. There will be some skinship involved so I have to be ready.

"Any questions?" He asked.

"You're basically just using me as your trophy?" I asked.

"Yes, something like that." I scoffed.

"We won't be a couple in public, you don't need to worry." He said.

"Okay."

"So I sign this here?" I asked and he nodded. I signed the contract without thinking twice. I don't know what's in my head a few seconds ago but I hope I don't regret it.

"Good girl." He smiled. I gave the file to him and he signed it too. I got up but he stopped me.

"I'll text you about the restaurant."

"You don't even have my number." I looked at him raising my eyebrows.

"Give it to me then."

"No."

"That's what I thought. I'll text you tonight, girlfriend." He smirked and I left the room.

No regrets, Athena. No regrets.

Marrying My Runaway Groom's Powerful Father

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."
