Chapter 11 Wait the Empire group ? It means that I would be meeting any future husband soon . Well if he has ill intentions then it's great time to show him that I don't give a shit . I just needed him against the toxic Rj group . That was it . ] I was rubbing my hands with anxiety . I have done many fashion shows before but this was a big one . We were opening a new chain of stores around the world and this helps to attract investors . For the event I wore a white backless jumpsuit with large hoop earrings and light make up . My 5'8 " height had always appealed my figure and today it fits perfectly to my outfit " Ma'am you should go and talk to the guests now . Anna will soon be giving the welcome speech " " Okay . Uh shit my palm are sweating . How will I shake hands ? " Chloe chuckled at my anxiety " kiss them " I'll fire you " I chuckled and walked to the front . ] " Oh dear here you are ! Come with me ' ] My mom dragged me to a group of people and I recognized my dad and Mr.Anderson . And there was a handsome man next to Mr. Anderson . My mouth started watering as I stared at his tone body underneath the white dress shirt . He was tall and had dark hair with mesmerising green eyes . ] ] From the corner of my eyes I saw my models checking him out . I narrowed my eyes and they quickly turned away looking frightened . " Mr. Anderson , here is my daughter Lily " ] " Lily this is Mr. Anderson , head of the Empire group and this is his son Marcus Anderson " My dad narrowed his eyes , silently telling me to smile . ] And so I did . I scowled . I saw my mom face palming from the corner of my eye . Marcus narrowed his eyes and looked away . Thankfully Mr. Anderson didn't notice my rude gesture . ] Marcus this will be your future wife . Isn't she so pretty and loveable ? I already like her as my daughter in law . So capable . Look at this fashion show , it's living proof " ] Marcus gave his dad a forced smile . I have a call to take " He excused himself and stormed away I watched him walk away and then turned around to go find my investors so that I can take my mind off this marriage . y my mom running to me like a chicken on fire . [ ] As I was talking to a group of people I saw my " The wedding is next week ! " She squealed in joy . [ ] " What the fuck ! " ] " Language ! you ungrateful child . I'm so happy . Mr. Anderson liked you a lot today and said he is looking forward to work with us sooner . So we both decided to have the wedding next week " ] " Congrats mom . I'm happy that you are marrying him . Poor dad " [ ] Mom frowned and slapped my back before walking away . I chuckled and turned to the stage as Anna cleared her throat grabbing everyone's attention . " Ladies and gentlemen . Please you may sit down . I want to thank you all for being here. The event will start in a short time but first of all our main designer Mr. Paul Belier would like to give a short introduction " ] After Mr. Belier's speech the fashion show started with a music in the 60's . The theme today was the hipple style in the 60's and the Vixen industries was never the one to disappoint . The female models were the first to walk in with their flared Jeans . Bandanas and boots . The male models looked equally appealing or I might say hot . [ ] felt a pair of eyes staring at me . I look to my opposite and saw my so called gonna be husband staring at me with a scowl on his face . I rolled my eyes and focused my attention back on the show . Finally it all came to an end and Chloe told me the happiest news in ages . [ ] " Ma'am so many people have already bought shares in our company . We are gonna be double rich " She was jumping up and down . I was in tears screaming along with her . ] ] " Chloe I'll buy you the world " ] " That's so sweet but a raise in the salary would be enough " We both laughed until someone came and ruined the moment . " Sister " My brother came hopping towards me . " Your man looks hot but not as much as me " He teased . He was twenty six and two years older than me but he acted so immature . My mother told me that Marcus was the same age as Jake and I prayed to god wishing he was different . Cause I can't marry a child . ] Even though Jake was playful and funny , he was a very strict and responsible man when it comes to business . He runs the RJ group with my dad . He would have been a brother I could be proud of , if he had more neurons in his brain . " Get lost " I scoffed " You know that he's been shooting daggers at you with his eyes " || " Yeah I saw " Chloe came to me and scowled at Jake before looking at me . " Ma'am Mr. Marcus Anderson said he wanted to talk to you " ] * So ? " " He wanted you to come outside " ] I scoffed . " What the hell ? Tell him to come to me if he wants to talk to me " My brother chuckled and walked away giving me a thumbs up . I was so pissed at this arranged marriage zero percent . Most of the CEO's under the I my anger management went down to conglomerate Rj were forced into such marriages for business deals . We had no free will even though we all belonged to the privileged part of the society . So my anger was directed more towards the director board instead of Marcus who at the moment was itching to be at the top of my most hated people list . I turned my head and saw Marcus striding towards me with an angry face . He was gritting his teeth so hard that I was sure his face would split into two . " God you are so annoying " He hissed angrily . ] " Did you just come here to say that to me ? " No , I came here to tell you that even though I'm marrying you , don't get attached to me because I'm never gonna love you or anything like that . You are just a disturbance in my life . Mind you own business after you marry me . Let's not talk at all if it's possible .
