Business Proposal

I squinted my eyes open in the room and sat up holding my head. My head was banging then it occurred to me that I wasn't in my room. I got down from the bed and noticed I wasn't wearing the dress from last night.

Scenes from last night started flashing through my head.Oh no! Where I'm I? I thought to myself, Wandering if I got kidnapped by Edwin. I hoped to myself that I wasn't in Edwin's apartment.

I walked towards the door and opened the door knob. I walked out of the room immediately, I walked through the corridor admiring it and walked passed some rooms then I halted when I heard cracking sounds coming out from a room.

I walked into the room,Thinking Edwin brought me to his apartment, I decided that I was going to confront him so I went inside the room. Thinking I was going to meet Edwin in the room but I met someone else,The man from the coffee shop!

Your awake! Logan said to me when I walked in but I acted like I didn't hear what he just said . How did I get here,What am I doing here? I asked him angrily. Did I not apologize to you already! What exactly do you want from me? I asked him faintly scared that I was kidnapped. Thoughts ran through my mind.

Calm down munchkin Don't you remember everything from last night! He said

to me then memories from last night flashed on me and how I begged him to save me last night.

Yes..I ughmm! I stammered not knowing what to say, Have a seat I heard him say to me! No I'm fine;I saw him giving me a cold glare like it was an order,so I took a seat. Thanks; I replied and sat down then my eyes went to his body starring at his chest with his buttons loosened and his sexy body,I felt so dumbstruck just starring at him.Pictures do last long Munchkin! He said and I acted as if I did not hear what he said,My cheeks turned red from being shy and how he caught me admiring his body.

You were drugged last night,Logan cut in making her snap out of her thoughts. Thank you for saving me! I said to him but he gave me no reply. Ughmm can I leave now and I will really love to compensate you for saving me last night. No it's fine,he said not glancing at me.

The butler will drop you home! He said to me!.Ughmm! Who took my clothes off, I asked him not glancing at him with my heart pounding fast waiting for his reply. My maid! I heard him say and I sighed out of relief. I went out and met the butler; Good morning miss, He greeted me and I did same. The butler looked like he was in his late fifties. I followed him to the garage where different cars were parked.

Now I knew for sure he was filthy rich and that's why he won't be needing my money, I thought to myself; I did not hesitate and entered the car.

When I got into the car, I took out my phone from my purse. I had 10 missed calls from Mia.

Shit! How did I forget that Mia will be worried about my whereabouts.

Miss we are here! I heard the butler say. I looked around and saw that we were at my apartment, Which got me wandering how he knew where I live. Thank you! I said to him and got down.

I walked towards my the door of my apartment and knocked on it,I wasn't with my key because I left the house with Mia last night.

The door opened. Marley! Mia screamed my name and hugged me so tightly, Where have you been? She asked me, I searched everywhere in the club and I even went to the police station to lay a complaint. She said to me.

I didn't want to tell her what happened knowing fully well she will get worried and probably go over to Edwin's place and create a scene if I told her Edwin drugged me.I thought to myself. I spent the night at a hotel, I lied to her and walked into the house. Marley! You should have called me,I was so worried.She said; I know and I'm sorry! I replied! and went and gave her a hug.

Logan you need to get yourself a wife, You aren't getting any younger and I want to see my great grandchildren before I die; Grandpa said to him. Logan lost his parents when he was a little boy. *** Little Logan watched his parents get shot while he was playing a hide and seek game with his nanny. Little Logan moved in with his mother's sister, Mrs Vivian has been his mother since that day.

Since the day Logan lost his parents, He became cold and heartless. Grandpa always taught him to be an icy man so he won't be taken for granted.

Logan left his grandfather's office and was about leaving when his mum walked in looking sad; Thank God your here Logan! Are you okay? Logan asked her.

I'm not fine Logan, Meet me in the garden I need to speak with you. Logan went to the garden to meet his mother then he saw tears rolling down her eyes. He ran over to her; Mum what's wrong? You know I hate seeing you this way; He said to her.

He took his hand out to wipe her tears off but she threw his hand out; Logan if you don't want me crying then get married! I was laughed at today at the WDA (women's development association) because my son is not married.

Logan! All of my friend sons are married but mind just chooses to sleep around with different women. She said angrily and left the garden.

I left the Will's mansion and got into the car, I signaled Manson, my assistant. They fucking made my mother to shade tears; Logan said to him and he understood immediately. He had to deal with the people that messed with his mum.

Logan got home and a girl was sent to his bedroom. He always had sex when he was angry or tired to cool his brain.

She began to undress herself; On your fours whore! Logan was known to be rough in bed.

The next day;

I got a gift box delivered to her in her apartment. It was a little weird for me to receive a gift like this because I nearly had a secret admirer. Then I thought Edwin sent it, How dare he send me a gift after what he did to me,I muttered to myself. I took out my phone to call the coward then my phone rang, It was an unknown number. Hello! Who is this? I asked.

Did you get my little package? I heard a male voice speak. Who is this? I asked again a little bit scared.

I can't believe you'd forget me this fast Marley my princess.

Who the hell are you and how do you know my name?

It seems you really have forgotten me my princess.

It finally doomed to me; D..ad!. So my princess finally recognized my voice. No it couldn't be after all these years.

How are you my princess? He asked me but I was too speechless to say anything, I hung up immediately. It was like a dream to me.

I came back to reality when my phone rang again, I thought it was Dad but it wasn't him, It was Mr Jen.I knew he was going to ask for his money; I borrowed money from him last month.

It seems you are trying my patience Miss Grey, If you don't pay me my money in two days! I will get you arrested,He hung up before I could say anything.

I thought of how I was going to pay the people I owed when I had no job then my eyes drifted to the package in front of me,I opened it and found a note with a bottle of champagne.

I opened the note to read it; Marley my princess,I know you hate me so much and your angry because of what transpired between your mother and I and I'm very sorry my princess. Your father is a changed man now,I miss my princess that's why I'm doing this. I know you owe a lot of people money and I promise to pay your debts. My butler will come pick you up tomorrow by 9am to my office so we can talk and I have a business proposal for my princess.

The man has been here in NYC and he never bothered to come see me.Another call came in not checking who the caller is, I picked the call.

Hello! I believe you must've opened my present by now my princess, The same voice from before spoke on the line again.

Stop calling me princess and what do you want from me? I asked him. Come on Marley I'm your father.

Well! You stopped being my father since the day you left mum and I,I said to him. Hahaha;He laughed Anyways I want you here by tomorrow, I have a business proposal for you and I know you love your friend so much so I will pay for her mum's hospital bills and besides she has been in that hospital for too long.

Mia's mum was diagnosed with a disease and she needed to go through a surgery but Mia did not have the money for the surgery.

I believe you have other children to give the proposal to and I don't need your business proposal.I said to him still on the line.

Come on Marley! We both know you are not in a good condition now, why don't you think of your friend and how she has been there for you all this years. Can't you do this one thing for her.

Have you been stalking me?I asked him; Maybe but that doesn't matter right, he replied. So Marley my princess; Will you be accepting my offer and not to forget you will be saving Mia's mum. He said to me.

His offer was ready tempting but I needed Mia's mum to be okay, she was like a mother to me. Not thinking twice I accepted his offer.

That's my girl! He said on the line. See you tomorrow then princess! He hung up.

I heard the door crack open, I hid the note immediately.It was Mia.

Heyy! She said with a sad face on. Are you okay? I asked her. No I'm not okay Marley, I still haven't been able to raise half of the money for mum's surgery. And by the way; what's this, She asked and changed her mood to a calm one. That was one of the reasons I loved Mia, She is so strong and never get to show that she has a problem.

Snap out of whatever your thinking girl! Mia said to me.

Who sent this box to you ? She asked me. I don't know, I lied because I did not want her to know my Dad sent the box.
