Chapter 1 Mitchell's Journey To Henry's Mansion
Mitchell tried all she could do to reach Christopher, but she could not.
She tried calling him, but his number was not reachable.
"What do I do? How can this number not be reachable now? Mitchell yelled.
"At least he should let me say goodbye, he loved traveling without informing and then coming back to say it was a surprise," she said and tears rolled down her cheeks.
She shook her head in disbelief, turned back, and went home.
Mitchell already arranged her bags and other things she would need while going to Henry Robinson's house.
Mitchell's mother was sick and she needed money to treat her, so she had no other choice than to sign the contract of becoming a fake girlfriend.

The just risen sun shone softly. The light of dawn seeped into her room.
And Mitchell could not even tell if she slept well, the thought of how the house she was heading to was on her mind.
She was not the type to do this, but the situation made her do it.
She was still lying on the bed beside her younger sister when the Alarm rang.
"My sister, are you not sleeping?" Amelia, Mitchell's younger sister, asked.
"Nothing, you can still sleep, there is time," Mitchell told her.
"I know how you feel sister, I know you feel sad, how I wish I had money, I won't make my sister do this, I will not allow my sister to become a fake girlfriend but it is fine, I just believe everything will be fine soon," Mitchell sister said, and gently tears rolled down from her eyes.
"Amelia, stop this, I am fine, I heard his house is so beautiful and I have got to enjoy many things there. I will swim, eat what I want... " Mitchell could not control herself, she started crying.
She hugged her sister, on the bed tightly.
"Do not cry, be fine for us, Mum too will get healthy soon" she said in tears.
"Alright," Mitchell said and left the room for the bathroom.
Mitchell brushed her teeth and then took a bath.
She dressed up and waited to be picked up.
She had already given her home address the day she accepted to become Henry's fake girlfriend and signed the fake girlfriend contract at the Agent's office.
Her sister joined her in waiting, and after an hour she saw a Rolls-Royce parked in front.
She breathed in and out heavily and the car winded down the front glass.
"There is a picture in his hand. He is not the same guy, the man in this car must be his friend" She soliloquy.
"Come in" He commanded.
Amelia cried and they hugged each other tightly before finally waving their hands goodbye.
"Enter" The man yelled, she entered and he drove off.
Her sister kept on waving her hand till the car was out of sight.

"Beep Beep" The horn, and the gatekeeper opened the magnificent gate.
Mitchell could not stop glaring at the house because it was such a beautiful one. She wished her sister was there and they could just spend hours taking pictures.
The house Is spacious and it can accommodate groups of people.
Different big cars were parked at the house, she doubted if anyone would be tired of staying in the house.
She was still walking and walking and she hadn't gotten to the main house.
Yes, she has seen a lot of workers, security guards with uniforms, gatekeepers with uniforms, and cleaners with uniforms.
She entered the main gate and she understood the reason why numerous people were working in this house, the beautiful view was enough.
Mitchell entered and she still doubted if this man lacked anything.
"Why couldn't he just marry instead of looking for a fake girlfriend here and there, Well that is not my problem, it is the money I need, nothing but the money to treat my mother," she said silently.
She sat in the living room, and she saw different maids walking up and down. "No doubt, this house is very big, but the workers are too much," She thought.
She kept staring at the big screen TV, She had been to different houses, big houses, but she hadn't seen this kind of TV before, it looked like it was specially made for Henry.
A worker came towards her and gave her a drink and glass cup, and asked her what she cared for, she replied, "Nothing".
She was sipping the glass cup, when the man appeared.
He looks exactly the way they explained to her, just that he is cuter.
Henry is handsome, he has everything a woman would desire.
"Your name?" He asked in a deep voice.
Mitchell was drawn back to reality when she heard this. "Is this the kind of man I want to be his fake girlfriend? Am I here to become his fake girlfriend or a maid because it is obvious we are not of the same standard" She said to herself
"I am Mitchell" she replied softly.
"You should be mindful of what you came to do here before taking a drink from them, or which is more important" He asked harshly.
"What does he mean? I have not even tasted anything this morning and he expects me not to accept the drink.
He must be joking." Mitchell thought silently
Henry is rude and harsh, the few minutes she spent with him was already a red flag for her.
She misses Christopher, her boyfriend, Chris is such a lovely and kind one, she could not even give him a goodbye kiss.
"I am sorry" she replied to him.
"I guess I have to start here with you. When I ask you a question, you answer me immediately, in less than 10 seconds" Henry said.
"Okay," she said sharply.
He brought out a book with a pen.
"I know you must have signed this in Unique Agency, but this one I am giving you is from me and is the official one, Take a pen" She stretched her hand and he gave her a pen.
"This is what you will sign You hereby sign the contract of becoming my fake girlfriend"
Without much delay, she collected the book from him and signed it.
It is what she went there for, it is what she was prepared for, and her first salary is the most important now.
"Not only that"
"Then what?" Her heart skipped a second when she heard this.
"What will this guy do again? What does he need again" She said to herself.
"We will have to celebrate a fake wedding this time" He uttered.
"What? I thought it was only a fake girlfriend, so I searched your history and asked around. You only have a fake girlfriend, why do we have to celebrate a fake wedding again" Mitchell asked.
"Do not forget you have already signed, both in the company and here, there is nothing you can do than agree" he said.
