In a bad economy, and the first child of the family, Bessy had no choice but to become an attendant by day and a prostitute by night. Her sick mother needs a huge amount of money to get chemotherapy for cancer and her siblings need money to feed and get things done in school. The age gap isn't helping and so all the burden is on her. Rumors have it that the CEO of Border Company has a dark secret but he needs a wife. She planned to become his wife but how would a prostitute and a low-class lady like her get to meet a CEO? What secret does the CEO have? Who is fuelling the rumour? Are they facts or rumours? Would a guy like Andrea see a prostitute as a wife?
"What the world needs to know about Andrea Tolen"
"The great NGO under disguise!"
"The secret Andrea keeps at bay"
"The rich mogul has been confirmed to be a molester and not what everyone thinks he is. Recently, a has testified to being molested by Andrea who offered her a sum of money to leave the city and never disclose what happened"
These were the news headlines. The lead of the article talks about the same thing in different ways.
"If anyone would be going to hell, journalists would make the queue so long, " Andrea bursted out, closing his laptop after seeing the headlines.
"Everyone has a secret, don't they?" he thought. "Why does Harper find it easy to prey on mine?" he questioned within himself.
"These ladies consented for goodness sake! he objected, raising his voice a little too high.
A knock brought him back to reality.
"Sir, here are the documents, " Darlene said as she dropped them on his table.
"You may leave" he said and he watched her as she went to the door, her butt nicely moving in her pants while she walked .
He looked at them lustfully and gulped hard.
He wanted her, but he needed to make it come off as natural.He is dealing with so much right now and does want anymore on his platter.
"You should come to the launch this week , " his voice halted her movement and she turned to stare at him with her face lit up like a kid.
"Ohh sure, I would love to" she said and smiled afterwards moving a little too slow to give her butt a sultry shake.
It is not the first time a lady has tried to seduce him. His height, his Aphrodite face , very enchanting eyes gets them tripping always.
He got the hint she gave, so he smirked and stared at the documents.
"No one would ever believe my side of the story, she really did say that way too detailed," he commented on the interview that was made against him by a lady writer in the document.
"Georgia... he dragged the lady's name, sounds familiar, he noted tapping the pen on the desk.
"I need a wife," he concluded.
"How do I get one who would stand by me , not because of the fame but because she is worth it? he thought.
"Yoo! Edward's voice brought him back to reality.
"You are trending, man," he said lightly.
"I know , Ed. " I have concluded I need a wife but I also need to make sure I have a tail on Harper and his team"
"Wait what? Edward asked, his eyes squinted in an unbelievable expression.
Suddenly, he started laughing.
"What the hell,Ed. I'm serious!" Andrea exclaimed.
"Look, I understand the aspect of tailing Harper that Freak, but a wife? that has to be the biggest joke you've made this year" Edward stressed.
"Fool, that's the only way out of this." Andrea said.
"Harper knows that the board is heavy on my reputation and having no wife makes it easy for their mind to be manipulated" he said further.
"At least, it would give an idea to the world that I should be able to get satisfaction from my wife and stop running around with girls," he continued.
"True... Ed responded. I can help you with the tail on Harper but what's your plan on getting a lady to marry? Edward asked
"Who do you have in mind? What's your plan? He asked further.
"Chill man, Andrea cooed.
"I would release it into the media that I am ready to get married, " Andrea said in seriousness as if he was imagining how everything would go.
"It should overshadow this scandal and the news would get off spoiling my image for a while" he concluded.
"Alright brother, but just know that if you are not getting it done very fast, Harper, would look for a bigger come back " Edward said.
"It's no joke, Ed. I think it's time I be a family man, "he said sarcastically making Edward laugh crazily
"Request for a contract marriage from Pepe, you know she is not after your money" like all this girls that flock around you, she wants the D, Edward suggested smirking .
"No, man. Harper would get a news off that"
"Andrea and his contract marriage"
" A means of escape: Andrea Tolen did a contract marriage"
He said mimicking how the news could write about the Idea of marrying Pepe.
"Besides, it's not only mine she wants, he said. Remember, the Founder's day, she was also with Harpwr and they left together" she informed.
"oh man, that is too bad" Ed said.
"I want to go for a lady who is not known and marry her and make sure she can stand the flash of many camera."
"You're looking for a fairy tale! Edward tested and Andrea shot him a death glare.
As he was about to respond, they heard noises coming from outside. They both walked to the window to see what is happening.
It was protesters. The yhad placards in their hands with different inciteful words. Words that could sir up bigger Non Governmental organisations about women against him.
"This shit is getting more real than the first"
Edward commented.
Slowly, Andrea scanned through the protesters to see if any suspicious person was among them.
They were all ladies and they had shades on , screaming high on top of their lungs like they were paid.
He sughted one placard and the word on it struck his heart.
He added out of his office to the elevator. He wanted to grab the lady inside to question her.
The words can only be gotten form anyone who know his past.
His strides were powerful and intimidating , a hand placed in his pocket to look composed as ever.
He didn't care about the words written on others he just wanted to get his hands on that particular placard and rip it off.
" Andrea, the media are lurking behind them, don't go anything silly Edward said as he followed him behind uncertain of why he needed to approach them.
The lad, intensified her noise and it got him more angry. He didn't care if he would be charged for assault this time.
Stepping into their midst, they didn't bulge but continued chanting.
On a clue of a whistle, the lady dashed away.
Who blew the whistle? Andrea thought as he scanned around.
