The Billionaire's secret Love by Manogyna Marthi (self help books to read .TXT) 📖

A few days later...

I stood in front of his desk ready to take the notes which he was about to dictate. He was typing something on his laptop. "Tomorrow will be last day of your work. Fill your resignation and put it on my desk before you leave." He informs not even sparing me a glance. "And by the way mom will take you to dress shopping of wedding gown day after tomorrow. Be ready at sharp nine in the morning. Oliver will pick you up from home." I shake my head. "That will not be necessary. She can pick a dress of her choice." I tell him disinterestedly. After all, this marriage is fake, a charade which both of us are going to put forth in front of public. In a square second his orbs rise from the screen of the laptop and hold mine in gravitas.

"Is it?" The devil's voice was just above a whisper but I could clearly understand the incense behind it. Stomping into anxiety by his killer gaze I inform him in nervousness but with an antogonizing irate. "I will go with her."

"Good, come here." He gives a small smile and waves his hand. I felt myself like a dog of him who wags his tail and goes to his master whenever called. Reality bites. Isn't it? Bending down a little, he pulls out the bottom drawer of his office desk and puts forward a beautiful diamond ring sitting in a small rectangular box. Bringing himself closer to me, he lifts my hand softly and slides the ring on my ring finger. I give a half smile to him. So here goes my pathetic engagement with this frugal bastard.

Dad, this goes for you. I sniff hard but couldn't help a lone tear fall my optics.

My core bushels to pieces as I notice a tear fall her orbs. Looking down she raises her left hand to her eyes and runs her trembling fingers on the platinum band. I know she was least happy with this marriage for a sad smile  enveloped her features holding my gaze. But regretfully that is how I am. I am not the romantic boyfriend who would drop himself to his knee holding a red rose and waiting for his girl to say a 'yes'. I love my 'wife to be' from the kernel of my heart and it's what that matters at the end of the day whether Angelica realises it or not. I admit I was selfish to pull her unwillingly into the marriage but I did not have a better choice.

Angelica hails from a cultured family and imbibes great family values. I am sure she will be a great mother to my kids one day. She is twenty two and is still a virgin. What more can I ask from God for being blessed with this pristine Angel? And most of all I love Angelica so much that I am ready to sacrifice anything for her happiness including my life but I will never accept it in front of her. I am a lion who is tamed under her latch but she is too innocent to know about it.

Planting a kiss on her forehead I bring her closer to me and hug her tight.

"We are engaged. You are my fiancée now. I beam to her in merriment still holding her in my arms.
