Chapter 4
ANGELINA
"You need to be braved, I know your situation." He tells me while meeting my gaze.
How can he understand my situation our lives are very different. But why he has so many concerns for me. He must be acting. He can't care for me.
While talking with him, I suddenly feel my stomach hurt and I feel like I'm about to throw up. I quickly run to the washroom.
I threw up and felt my head heavy and dizziness. I don't know what is happening. I wash my face and notice Steaves standing at my back.
"What happen?" He ask coldly.
"I'm not feeling well, my head is aching, and I'm feeling dizziness." I said while whipping my face with the towel.
"Have you ever felt like that before?" He ask me confusedly.
"No it's the first time, I feel so wired. I don't know what is happening to me." I stated.
"Food poisoning?" He suggested. "No! I haven't eaten nothing!" I stated.
"Hmm... Have you slept well?" He ask. "Yes!" I nodded.
"Wait..did you have any sexual relation in the week or day before?" He ask me confusedly.
"What the hell, I've never had any sexual relation."
"You're sure." He ask raising his brow.
"Yes." I stated.
"Hmm..good!." He said with a smirk.
"What do you mean?" I ask him with a highly tempered mind.
"Nothing... that's sounds interesting, I'm joking, sorry!." He said wildly.
"But why you are getting those wired symptoms. I'm telling you let's go to the hospital. At least you could find out." He said worriedly.
"Let it be, I will visit the doctor, but later on. For the time being, I'm feeling better." I said.
"Okay if you insist. I'm leaving if you need anything or you will not feel well just call me." He said while walking to the living room.
"Yes." I nodded.
"And yes, you don't need to come at work today." He said, standing at the door frame.
"But I'm fine I can work." I said.
"No actually tomorrow morning we'll meet our families, and we'll talk about our engagement, so I have already completed all works for tonight." He said coldly.
"Okay." I stated.
"Bye, don't forget to call me if you have any problem. Because I'm not just your boss but also your husband 'according to the contract'." He said with a smirk and added some air quotes.
"YES Steaves." I stated calmly. I watch him, till he leaves from his car. No wonder what this man really wants.
"He doesn't seem to have such a devil mind at all but maybe I'll find the truth later?" He seems to be a perfect man but time will reveal his truth.
While thinking about steaves I walk to my room, and lay on the bed. I'm still having a headache. I don't know what is my problem tomorrow after meeting Steaves family I will have to consult a doctor.
I hear a notification from my phone, I quickly grab it and open the message.
It's a message from Steaves!
-Hope you're feeling better than before.
Let me reply him before he gets mad.
-yes, thanks for your concern..
I know Steaves really don't care about me, and he is just doing all this for a formality. Because nothing can be more important than his work for him and this man is going to be my husband, no wonder how I will spend my life staying with him. He is already a pain in the ass.
"Baby..I'm home." I hear mom. I quickly rush downstairs to the living room. I can't tell her that I'm not well or else she will stress herself.
"Hi Mom." I said, waving to her.
"How was your day?" She ask waving back.
"Fine..and yours?" I ask her while smiling.
"Good. I've brought food for us, no need to cook for tonight." She said while sitting on the couch.
"Err..Mom I have a boyfriend and I think tomorrow he will meet you." I said nervously.
"Baby why you seem to be freaked out. Calm down, Steaves has already talked to me, and he also told me about tomorrow's lunch." She stated, I am completely shocked, when did Steaves talked to Mom.
"Okay, that's great if he already talked to you." I said with a fake smile.
"I must say he is really handsome, and that's bad you have been dating him for almost 1 year, and you hide this fact from me." Mom said a bit angrily.
"Hmm..sorry mom, Actually, I was scared to tell you, I've tried many times, but I've always failed." I said confusedly. Steaves has completely messed up everything. How much, I will have to lie.
"Oh let it be, I just want to see you happy." She said lovingly with a lot of loves.
But I'm never going to be happy with him. I just smile at her knowing that my life will be a hell.
"Let's have dinner." Mom Natalie said taking the food from the table.
"Yes" I nod.
She arranged all the foods on the dinning table, and then places my plate in front of me. We both eats our food.
After dinner, we both went to our bedrooms.
I sat on the bed, and my phone begins to ring it's an income call from Steaves . I slide the screen and pick up the call.
"Hello." I said.
"Hi, what you're doing?" He ask through the phone.
"Nothing, just laying on the bed." I said.
"I hope you're feeling better than before, well..tomorrow where should we have the family meeting at my place or at a restaurant?" He asked me.
"Well..I don't know that is your choice." I said.
"I think I will book a restaurant, so that it can be easy for both the families." He stated.
"Okay, that's good." "Well, when did you talk with Mom Natalie?" I questioned him.
"Hmm..that's not important for now..." I cut him.
"It is really important you can't just say everything in your choice." I stated.
"SHUT UP! We need to plan a story for tomorrow." He yelled over the phone that made me realise he is right.
"Hmm... what story then?" I asked him.
"Well..it has been almost 1 year since we know each other and from the past months we've got really close to each other then I have proposed you and you agreed the proposal." He said, which seems to be a romantic story but it's all fake.
"Okay..good." I mumbled.
"If you want to add something new on the story, you're free to add." He suggested.
"No..it's good that's enough." I stated.
"Okay..good then see you tomorrow, I will come to pick you, bye. He hang up before I can say something else.
So, I have to choose a dress for tomorrow. I think I will wear my black dress. It will be suitable for a night out.
I don't know how his family will be, I hope they will be kind. Not rude as Steaves. "Steaves can be rude! But sorry darling, I won't let you control my life!
What will happen after tomorrow's meeting?
