The Billionaire's compromises

Emily Elvis, a woman in her mid twenties, walked into the Losey Mansion looking as elegant as always, her heels clicking against the polished marble floors, Walking with her head held high, her eyes filled with anger.

For the past two months, she had done everything possible to get in contact with him but each time she called his personal assistant won't let her speak to him.

Then she saw him, Brian Losey. He was a young man in his early thirties with his short neatly trimmed light brown hair that was slightly wavy, his face well shaved with a well defined jawline and high cheekbones. His eyes are a striking shade of blue, framed by thick dark eyelashes.

Emily was astonished by his looks,he looked more handsome than the man she was with three months back, she couldn't help but keep staring at him.

But this was not why she was here, she was pregnant.

She was carrying the baby of one of the most influential billionaires in the country.

But Emily didn't care who he was,she was more concerned on what to do with the baby, she didn't want to keep it, but she was also scared to terminate it.

Brian was surprised when he saw her, he knew he had seen this face before but he didn't know where.

He kept staring at her as she walked closer to him.

"She was beautiful," he whispered to himself.

Brian could see in her eyes that she was furious, he wondered who she was and why she was so mad, and why she was even at his house. Emily walked up to him looking directly into his eyes she said

"I know you can't remember and might be wondering who I am or why I'm here, but I'm not here to beat around the bush either, I am pregnant for you Brian Losey"

Brian was surprised at this woman's confidence, he had never met someone that dared to look him directly into his eyes or even called him by his full name.

Rumors abound that he was so cold and heartless because of his callous nature.

"Who are you?" Brian asked in his deep authoritative voice.

Emily became more furious because she could recognize this man, so why couldn't he recognize her.

"I am Emily Elvis and I am carrying your baby" this time Emily was even more furious with her piercing eyes never leaving his face.

Brian was still confused, he looked at her closely.

"It was her, the woman from that night"

But she was different now, she was looking so beautiful.

"How is she pregnant, it was just a one night stand" Brian thought to himself.

Seeing that he was lost in thought, Emily snapped her fingers at him.

"Okay miss Emily, since you're pregnant for me, then keep the baby" Brian said as he took a sip from his coffee.

Emily was surprised, she expected him to ask questions, he wasn't supposed to just accept

"You want me to keep the baby" Emily was calm this time, she thought he was going to argue.

Brian was skeptical about it, but seeing as there was no hint of insecurity on the woman's face, he decided to believe her.

"I will keep the baby but I have conditions"

Brian's expression immediately changed.

"Okay, whatever you want miss Emily" Brian replied almost immediately, gesturing towards a seat.

"First,you'll marry me" Emily was taken aback by her own words,she didn't know why she said that but she had to,it was for her baby, she didn't want her child to grow up without a father like she did.

Brian was stunned, he looked at the woman standing before him again but her eyes were cold and unwavering, he knew she meant business.

"The wedding will be at the registry, just you, me and third man from both parties, it's your wish to tell your family about it, no one needs to know about it,you can go about your life, I just need you to play daddy duties, you don't have to take care of me at all, and we'll both contribute financially for the baby's upkeep" Emily continued.

"If I must abide by your conditions,I also have mine" Brian said furrowing his brows

"You'll move in with me after the wedding, you can't take up any job as long as you're still pregnant, you'll do a DNA test after the baby is born, we'll have a divorce after five years, the child will take turns and I'll make sure you're comfortable after the divorce since you'll be raising my child" Do we have a deal miss Emily Elvis

"Yes, Brian Losey"

* * * * * * *

Emily took a ride back home,she decided to stop at the mall to get a dress for the wedding, she couldn't help but think about the night she met Brian.

It was a hotel, she was at the lounge having drinks, she just broke up with her boyfriend Jayden who she caught cheating on her.

In her sober state she saw Brian who was also looking drunk, so she decided to go share a drink with him.

They talked for a while, Emily was too drunk to go home and Brian offered her to spend a night with him.

She was in the room with him, Brian was so handsome she had to kiss him

The kiss was so perfect.

"We're here ma'am" Emily was brought back by the driver.

Emily got into the mall, she wasn't feeling any dress, so she went for the first one in her size, she decided to get some groceries on the other end of the mall,

She took some groceries but was taken aback when she saw someone.

"It can't be him," she said to herself as she kept walking" She couldn't help but stare at this man. "It can't be Jayden," she said to herself .

Seems like the young man noticed and there was also a surprised look on his face.

They both stared at each other for a while, Waiting for someone to say something, but Emily looked like she had nothing to say.

She stopped staring and decided to just walk past.

"Hi Emily, Nice to see you again" the young man said from a short distance.

Emily just stood there as a drop of tears rolled down her cheek.

Emily just stood there looking at Jayden, she was so furious,she thought about how he left her when she needed him the most.

They were together for four years, Jayden was the person she considered as family since she lost both her parents at a young age. But he still went and cheated on her.

She looked at him with so much anger, he was someone she used to love.

"You look really beautiful" Jayden said.

"What do you want" Emily voice was filled with anger.

"Emily you don't have to be mean to me, I don't bite, I saw you and I wanted to say hi"

"I don't need you to be nice to me Jayden, if you have nothing to say,I'll be on my way"Emily replied.

"Babe" a woman shouted from a distance. "I've been looking everywhere for you"she said walking towards Jayden .

"Emily, this is Angelica,my fiànce"Jayden said grabbing the woman by her waist.

Emily felt a part of her heart shattered, how could he have a fiànce,they broke up three months ago,she couldn't hold it in, with the tears in her eyes she just walked away without saying a word.

As she took a cab back home, she thought about the time she was with Jayden, she felt so much pain in her heart. But that was in the past now,all she needed now was to focus on her baby.

She got home feeling all tired,she decided to have a hot bath, but then her phone rang.

"Hi" said the person on the other end of the phone. "Am I speaking to Emily Elvis"

"Yes"Emily replied.

"I'm Scott, Mr Brian's personal assistant, I've been asked to arrange a ride for you for the wedding,I'm calling to confirm your address" he continued.

"Tell Brian I'll find my way" Emily replied as she hung up.

"I can't be accepting favours from this man" she murmured as she walked to have her bath.

After having a long bath she layed to rest for the night,the wedding was in two days,she had to invite at least a family member or close relative,she had no family member.

Aunty Julie was the only person she could think of. Aunty Julie was her mother's younger sister,she has a daughter Elise that was almost same age as her, she knew Aunty Julie didn't like her, Even Elise her cousin hates the ground she walks on.

She always thought about why they hated her so much,she knew it has something to do with her mother, but that was all she knew, neither Aunty Julie nor her mother ever talked about it.

She finally decided to call Aunty Julie in the morning seeing that it was already late and she must have slept.

* * *

It was morning, Emily was awake still skeptical about calling Aunty Julie,but she had to,she had no other person to call.

She took the phone and dailed the number;

"What do you want"Aunty Julie sounded so rude from the other end of the phone.

"Hi Aunty, Good morning" Emily greeted her.

"Go straight to the point,I don't have all day"Aunty Julie replied.

"I'd love to invite you to my wedding" Emily said her heart racing a bit.

Aunty Julie laughed out really loud

"Wedding? I thought that sarcastic boyfriend of yours dumped you month ago".

Emily felt slightly hurt hearing her aunt talk like that "I'm pregnant and I'm getting married to the father of my baby"Emily replied .

"Oh you wayward child,I knew you were of no good, how shameless can a person be".

Emily knew her Aunty was never going to be nice to her, but yet she felt more broken by her words.

"Aunty you don't need to be embarassed, the wedding is at the registry, just few people will be there"Emily said trying to hold back tears.

"And you're getting married to a poor man who can't afford a standard wedding, how unfortunate', Anyways send me the address, I and my daughter would try to attend if that's the last thing we can do for your miserable life" Aunty Julie said as she hung up

Emily let out the tears that was stuck in her eyes for long,she knew what she signed up for so she had to be strong for herself and for her baby.

Since she already called Aunty Julie, she decided to get her things ready since she'll be moving into Brian's house after the wedding.

Brian on the other hand was at the office with Scott,he had sent Scott to look into Emily's background.

"She has no family member, I think she grew up alone, from what I heard both her parents died a long time ago" Scott said to Brian.

Brian nodded and kept looking at his phone.

"But something feels wierd sir; Scott said drawing Brian's attention; the man that I figured was her ex boyfriend is the same man that is dating your sister Angelica"

"What!!!" Brian said in shock.

Brian's mind went back to the time he met Emily at the hotel, he remembered that she kept talking about her ex boyfriend, how she gave him everything but yet he cheated on her, so his sister was the reason he thought to himself.

"I want you to invite them to the wedding" Brian told Scott

"You mean Angelica and her fiànce, Are you sure sir?" Scott asked Brian.

"Yes" Brian replied "what is the worst that could possibly happen"

Scott left Brian's office to complete the task he was given.

Brian sat at the office,he thought about Emily,she was different from all the other women he has met,she was so bold and confident.

For the first time he met a woman that didn't care about his status.

He was more amazed by the fact that she looked him and called him by his full name. Something no one dared.

A faint smile flickered across his eyes; "this may not be a bad idea he thought to himself.

"ding ding ding"the door bell rang.

"Who's there"Emily asked as she hurried to get the door,she wasn't expecting anyone.

She opened the door and saw a man standing .

"Hi,I'm Scott, Mr Brian's personal assistant"the man said .

"Oh, hi, can I help you"Emily replied

"Mr Brian sent these packages to you"he gestured towards some wrapped packages.

"For me!!"Emily was surprised,she walked towards the boxes,there were two boxes.

"Okay I'll be on my way ma'am"Scott said as he walked towards the black Mercedes that was parked by the side of the road.

"Tell him I said thanks" Emily said as she carries the boxes inside.

"What could possibly be in these boxes"she murmured as she walked into her bedroom.

She put the boxes on the wooden bed that was in the room,she opened the first box gently.

It was a dress,a beautiful peach dress that was exactly In her size.

The dress was so simple,yet so beautiful. She found a note in the box that said "for the wedding"

She tried the dress on and it fits perfectly showcasing her curves.

"Wow, how did he get to know my size"she said "this is more beautiful than what I got at the mall"

She opened the second box, and it was a shoe, a silver shoe with glitter all over it.

"Wow,this man got great taste" Emily said to herself with a little smile flickering across her eyes.

"I should call him to thank him properly" she said as she picked up her phone.

She dailed the number and It was ringing.

"I don't think he's going to respond,he's such a busy man"she murmured to herself.

"Hello"the deep firm voice on the other end of the phone.

"Hi Brian,it's Emily"she replied with her voice shaking,she didn't expect him to pickup; "I got the packages you sent, I wanted to say thanks" she continued.

"You're welcome" he replied as he hung up.

"How rude" she murmured to herself.

* * * *

Back in the office, Brian had called Angelica earlier and requested from them to meet.

Brian and Angelica were the only children their late parents had.

Brian was the older one,he loves his sister so much regardless of the fact that they stayed apart.

Brian preferred staying alone especially because of his health conditions.The doctor said he suffered from a rare condition called schizoid personality disorder.

Schizoid personality disorder is a mental health condition that makes a person to be distant from other people, social gathering, parties makes them really uncomfortable. They barely shows their emotions and are comfortable being alone.

Brian has had this disorder since when he was a kid,but it became worse after he lost his parents.

He had no friends and avoid social gathering and parties.The doctor said the only way he can get better was by having someone who he feels comfortable being around with that it can make him feel more safe and in the long run improve his social skill and help him navigate his emotions.

" Hey bro"Angelica said happily as she walked into Brian's office. "It's been a while"she continued as she sat at the empty sit.

Angelica was an epitome of beauty, she was in her mid twenties, unlike Brian, Angelica was an extrovert, she loves to party and go on vacations.

"How was Qatar, seems like you really love Qatar, seeing that you spent almost two months there" Brian said.

"Bro, Qatar was the best and guess who found their soulmate"Angelica said giggling. "I met someone,his name is Jayden and we're in love"she continued.

"Hmmm,I figured"Brian said releasing a gentle smile.

"Oh my god bro, you're still doing the FBI thing on me,I'm all grown now"she said trying to make faces.

"I'm just making sure you're safe,and with that,are you sure this man really loves you or he's just here for the money, you know how it has been with all your exes"Brian said.

"Of course he does,I mean I can feel it,so"she replied.

"Okay if you say so"Brian said "Well the reason I wanted to see you is because I'm getting married and you're invited"Brian continued trying to avoid eye contact with Angelica.

"What!!,bro you're pulling my legs night" Angelica was in shock.

."The wedding is tomorrow, and she's pregnant too"Brian replied.

"Pregnant too,wow!!, but bro are you sure about this, getting married and cohabiting with someone,you know your health condition,it can be overwhelming and uncomfortable for you"Angelica was concerned at this point.

"I'll be fine"Brian sounded reassuring, he didn't want his sister to be worried.

"I'm really excited though my brother is getting married"Angelica was really excited.

"The wedding is at the registry,I don't need so much crowd,so just you and your boyfriend"Brian said,he knew Angelica would want him to have a big wedding.

"Ah, the registry"Angelica sighed; "when do I get to meet her"Angelica said trying to get Brian's attention.

"At the wedding" Brian replied.

They chatted for a while before Angelica left, Brian thought about how chaotic the wedding is going to be with Emily, Jayden and Angelica but for some reasons he wanted it to happen.

Just then his phone rang,an unknown number was calling,it must be one of his business partners he thought.

"Hi"Brian said.

"Am I speaking to Mr Brian"the person on the other end asked

"yes"Brian replied.

"Emily was admitted to the hospital and she said we should let you know"the person continued

Brian's heart skipped a bit, he thought about the baby "which hospital"he replied as he grabbed his car keys.

"The city hospital"the person replied.

"On my way"Brian said as he hung up.

He quickly got into the car and took off to the hospital.

He kept thinking if Emily and the baby was fine.
