Chapters

Chapter 9

Bella looked at the documents and then back at Benson. There were no emotions on his face; he stared back at her, straight–faced, with no feelings attached.

"Is he thinking that I would back down from a deal without signing this document? He doesn't trust me?" Bella questioned internally.

"We are signing this now? Like, here?" Bella whispered, trying to remind him that they were in a restaurant.

"Yeah." Benson raised his eyebrows.

Bella glared at the contract; she was totally speechless

He was mean– too mean. According to the contract, PARTY A was Benson, while PARTY B was Bella.

She kept reading line by line until her eyes got to the part he said PARTY A was allowed to sexually request to be with PARTY B, but PARTY B isn't allowed to make any.

If PARTY A request, PARTY B has every right to accept or decline, and PARTY A will cooperate without Violence attached.

Bella looked at him, anticipating an explanation.

"What? There's literally no way on earth l'm falling in love with a psychopath like you," Benson mocked.

"Hey! What makes you think I am one?"

"Well for starters who walk into an expensive bar they can't afford, order a drink, and wait for their saviour to come pay the bills?"

"Listen, I was upset and emotional. Do not judge me in that aspect."

"Oh really? So if I didn't come into the bar, Bella, please tell the audience how you were going to pay for that drink?" Benson was acting all dramatic, and Bella, realized that she had lost this round, eyed him and went back to reading the document.

"Wait, what?" Bella glared at the part he said PARTY B must agree to move into the same house with PARTY A.

"Why would I be moving in with you?" Bella asked, looking at this crazy man.

"Well it's simple. If you're going to be my girlfriend-wife we kinda have to make it look real in the society. I'm kind of a big deal here, you know–the media, the news." Benson sounded so arrogant and proud and this made Bella almost puke.

"You're impossible!" She screamed into his face.

"Are you having second thoughts about signing the papers? Fine, let me have it." Benson used his trick on her.

Bella, who almost attempted to hand the papers over to him, looked at the button and saw the amount she'd be paid. She wasn't a money monger but five hundred thousand dollars yes she was definitely doing this.

She looked at Benson for a minute wanting to hug the hell out of him

"Calm down. Don't let him think you're cheap." the inner voice inside of her cracked her head.

"Hmm... I will just sign it" she muttered to Benson as he handed her an office pen that looked really pretty, Bella scrawled her signature on the paper.

Bella resumed her eating, Benson sat watching her and pretending to scroll through his phone.

"Listen, if you admire me, go straight to the point. Stop acting like some kids." Bella broke the silence that had grew between them

"Wait what? You wish" Benson pride fell straight to the ground, she had a gift for making him feel less of himself

"Well, that's your business. I know l'm freaking worth it."

"Yen yen yen" Benson mocked

"What are these two cats and dogs doing here?" Leo screamed from the restaurant door.

His heart cringed on seeing Benson with Bella. He stared at them wondering what brought them here

"Did Benson finally tell her the deal? How's she taking it" he thought to himself, instead of letting curiosity get the best of him he had to notify them he was around .

"What got the enemies sitting on the same table must be crazily insane" Leo cracked

"Excuse you who said we were enemies?" Bella tried to bury her head inside her food

"Oh wait unless one of us got our head hit by a car, I clearly remembered "l'm not going to apologize he should do so first" two sick people" Leo had a satisfying laughter and it got Benson smirking

"Well bro I want you to meet my girlfriend Bella, sorry we introduced ourselves to you on a wrong path but yeah that's in the past now"

Benson for some reason found himself being over protective, he liked the word girlfriend and Bella he looked at her anticipating a rash moment but to his shocking surprise Bella smiled and looked at Leo as if she was accepting the fact.

"Did he just call me his girlfriend?" Bella's inner child giggled.

She tried to hide the excitement in her face and just constantly kept her eyes on Leo avoiding Benson's gaze.

"Well you seem so excited he called you my girlfriend?" The voice in Bella's head pricked her

"Well we are making an act in front of his friend remember the deal is a secret no one must know about it" Bella reassured herself but she hated the fact that deep down she knew she was being a pathetic liar

LEO's POV

He looked dumbfolded. For what felt like years no he wasn't hearing properly, did Benson just call Bella his girlfriend, he gave Bella a long stare she seemed so happy hearing it come out of Benson's mouth, something inside him broke

Does she even know he's doing this just to take over his father's company and be a good son? Does she know about the Deal?" He thought widely to himself

Leo didn't want them noticing the sudden change in his mood so he broke the silence

"Whatttt? When did this happen? Why wasn't I invited to the party" he cracked

"Don't mind Benson; he just has a way of captivating a woman's heart just speaking to them;" Bella spoke for some reasons her world felt real they looked real, Benson smiled genuinely he liked the way she said that.

"Damn you two love birds and making my eyes go all red" Leo joked trying to put himself together

"That reminds me Leo–you're Benson's longest friend. Can you tell me some embarrassing moments he had as a child while growing up I need all backups to his when am taunting him" Bella giggled her white dentition made her look really pretty

"Bro you wouldn't dare!?" Benson looked at Leo trying to plead with him not to spill

VALE MANSION

Angella walked in putting on a pink body hugging gown. Dressed in her most expensive fragrance she walked in her red lipstick making her extremely noticeable

"Oh wow if it isn't Angella my future daughter in law, how are you child?" Mrs Vale screamed from the staircase

"I will do everything possible to make Benson mine. He'll be mine and no one else would dare take him away from me. Even if it's the last thing I do on earth". Angella giggled to herself as she let drowning in her thoughts, making sure to put up fake smiles with Mrs Vale.

The moment she stepped into the wrong restroom, everything changed. Hailey had only been at Hillsworth College for a day, a fresh scholarship student, eager yet nervous. She had simply been looking for the restroom, but fate had other plans. The thick scent of smoke filled her lungs the second she pushed the door open. The air was dense, intoxicating. Her breath hitched when she saw him. A dangerously handsome guy. He leaned lazily against the sink, a cigarette dangling from his lips, his sharp eyes flickering toward her. Tattoos curled around his arms like inked secrets, and silver rings glinted from his eyebrow and tongue. A dangerous smirk lifted his lips as he exhaled a cloud of smoke. "Lost, princess?" He asked with a smirk, raking her with his eyes from head to toe. Hailey 's heart pounded. This was the boys' restroom. And somehow, she had just collided with trouble. ___ Hailey had learned early on that life was rarely fair.

Her uncle's wife, Cecilia, had never truly cared for her, but after his death, the cold indifference turned to outright cruelty.
