Chapter 1 married immidiately

"Gosh! I'm late "

She pushed the door open, with an accelerating heartbeat she glanced around while drinking a ragolis water on her hand.

The place was sheltered as expected but the person she was looking for seemed not to be present.

Her heart raced, she looked at the wall clock hung on the right side of the room dinning. It was already passed 6 o'clock pm in the evening.

"Was she late? Did he leave already?"

Muttering to herself, she went to the bathroom and shut the door behind her.

Sitting on the toilet seat, she brought out her phone and scrolled down to a text sent by her childhood friend, Gwen.

' Diana , meet this man at Roy Donald's dinner place at five. He's a struggling artist, he needs shelter at the moment. Don't be carried away by his looks Hun, his gay! Focus honey.

' His willing to marry you. He is ready. Go for it darling. Catch yah'.

This is the last hope for Diana. She had to marry him as soon as possible.

Her witless friend did not thought of sharing his picture because she had to leave urgently to Florida.

Before going off, Gwen left a note ' you have to meet him Tomorrow evening. I had to leave immediately, mum is sick and admitted in the hospital. Micheal Wil be there tomorrow at 5 sharp in the evening, he Will be wearing a blue colour T shirt.

Please note , his a very punctual guy . All the best my love. Bye! '

But now what is happening? The 'punctual Micheal' was no where to be found. She stepped out from the restroom and started washing her hands. Her mind flashed back to the moment she caught her ex lover Albert and her best friend Coco cheating on her. This had emotionally, physically and mentally drained her down.

'where the hell is the Micheal I'm supposed to meet here? I need to let albert know that he missed a priceless jewel like me,I'm going to make him regret what he did to me with that wh*re." She screamed loud , hitting her right feet on the wall__drawing the attention of an old woman washing her hands in the sink, the woman's expressions made her realize she's about going nuts, speaking to herself all alone.

"Oops I'm sorry" her voice calm and steady. She quietly sneaked away from the restroom allowing her eyes collide on a dinning seater couch.

Her heart pounded in her chest when her gaze struck a man on a blue shirt looking around__ as though he was waiting for someone.

He was wearing a branded coat, it doesn't define him as a struggling tattoo artist. Maybe because of his profession, he needed to keep his appearance clean and presenting.

Oh my God, thank you Gwen , his finally here.

She sent deep silent hugs to her best friend, she watched him take a seat, entirely focused on his fone.

Oh good lord! Darm you Gwen, you never told me he was audaciously hot , darm man! This handsome is gay.

'if you are done checking me out, I have work to do." His voice was deep and cold, his blue eyes locking hers.

He buried his face back in his phone.

My God! Was he some of Romano god on earth, her breathe froze. She came back to life reminding her self this is not a dream.

He ran out of patience waiting for her to introduce herself.

How dumb of her of course. Now his staring at her confused.

"I..uhm..I'm Diana, Diana Lucas" she quivered and feeling awkward she held out her palm expecting a handshake, but instead he continued staring at her leaving her Manus hanging on air.

She became uncomfortable, this man was smokey handsome but seems to be an arrogant as*hole. But she needed him. This was her only and last hope.

With a smirk and forcing smile, she dragged her seat in front of her and sat down. "Listen Micheal" now his bewildered expression was visible. He looked at her like she had gone insane.

This man looked like Micheal Gowenz. A popular movie star. But she couldn't just let it out of her mouth. Of course she had to compose herself not to offend him probably.

"Listen Micheal , Gwen must have told you about my need to marry someone urgently"

"Excuse me?" A spark of interest mask his expression.

"Micheal listen to me, she has told me everything about you, I have a little apartment and you can lay on the bed while I manage the couch"

His expressions made her a little bit uneasy. But she had gotten his attention now. "Micheal I will pay you handsomely but my money is stuck some where, once I recover it, I will settle you. I can also be of help to your career. I have some peeps that are looking for a tatoo artist.

For the first time, she saw through him, the warmth and ice cracking in his glare. She never wanted to sound desperate but did she have a choice ?

"Do we have a deal Micheal? What do you say?" He noticed she was waiting for his response.

"When do you want this marriage thing miss?"

"It's Diana, anytime that suits you best "

"Diana, Can we do it now?" Now his expressions had become tighter and bold.

"Now?" She was shocked , she never expected it to go this easily.

"Yes miss Diana, I'm available right now, and if it's not now, then deal is off". He stood up, grabbed his fone and about leaving. She stood on her sexy long legs and curvy swaying hips, she rushed after him.

This is becoming interesting, how could she get married in such short notice, she had to make some preparations of course, but she got to realize that he have his own connections, from the priest to the witnesses, everything was stand by.

They got married and stepped out of the office with their legal papers. A cab stopped before them for which Diana had already hired and paid.

"Are you going somewhere ?" He questioned her seeing letters she's stuffing In her files.

"Yes Micheal, I've got a job interview and I need to be there right now" she smiled happily staring at him, she brought out a piece of paper handing over to him.

"Here's my address, please you can take your things and move in, I will be waiting for you" she walked into the cab not noticing he had been looking at her for what she just made him do.

That moment, the sound of his phone obstructed his thoughts.

"Hello? Grey! My man, where are you my friend?"

"What happened Roy "

"Nothing happened man, but something would strike if you don't get married this evening, your old man is getting worked up and agitating something I can't figure out. Worst of it all, Rita is not responding, I know we agreed and paid her twenty million to marry you but if she's asking for forty million, then give it to her because there are no options left.

"F*ck Rita and her payment, no need of her anymore. By the way, I just got married Roy"

"You did what?" Roy was shocked on the other side.

"I still can't believe it myself, everything played out too fast, I am going to forward a PDF of my marriage papers to you, so tell your old man not to touch my inheritance as the CEO of Marvin's group , that's my position and where I belong. I'm not letting anyone take it away from me. I'm married now." There was sarcasm in his statement.

"Holy Moses! How did you do that? Who's the girl? So how much are you paying her? Did she took less than Rita? Tell me something Man, this news is a sweet shock to me and am happy really"

"Ha ha ha....Roy this is where am amazed as well, she's the one paying me, it's the other way round, she also offered a place to live, Roy, I'm astonished."

"She did what?" Roy choked while sipping his coffee, chuckling.

Grey dropped the call smiling to himself. It seemed his emergency bride knew nothing about him. He looked at his phone and dialed another number. "Hello, ken where's my car? bring it here now."

"Yes sir" and then a sparkling Chevy Silverado SUV stopped near him. A neatly dressed uniform man stepped out and opened the door for him. Grey climbed the back seat , relaxed and from his expression, one could tell he just won a lottery. The most difficult task this morning became the easiest.

He didn't know the strange girl, he was supposed to pay someone to get married, but she seemed daring and he seemed very much interested in getting to know her, why she was also looking for a husband, confusing him for Micheal.

Poor micheal just lost a trophy he guessed.
