“Thanks for serving to me. I’ll make my cost first then,” I stated as I began heading in direction of the cost signal.

“That’s okay. I’ll deal with it,” Adrian shortly stated.

I felt the woman’s curious eyes on me, so I turned to smile down at her earlier than shifting my consideration again to Adrian.

“It’s okay. You’ve helped me sufficient. I ought to go now,” I stated earlier than strolling out of the emergency room.

After offering my private info to the hospital in order that they may course of my case and making the cost, I left the hospital to move to my authentic vacation spot. Whereas ready for a cab in entrance of the hospital constructing, my eyes caught sight of the massive steel signal of the hospital’s title. Amsworth Common Hospital. It solely took me a break up of a second to attach the dots collectively. How come I didn’t understand it the primary time that I heard his title? No marvel he seemed acquainted.

Adrian Amsworth, sole inheritor to the most important hospital and healthcare chain on this nation and doubtless in all different developed nations as effectively. That fully defined the sportscar. I laughed just a little to myself pondering that maybe, I actually ought to have let him maintain my medical payments. Turning round, I tilted my head and stared up the sky-high constructing of the hospital. That man owns this place in addition to many others.

Maybe a 12 months earlier, I’d have been fascinated by associating myself with him. Now, nonetheless, staying away from individuals like him is perhaps higher for my peace of thoughts. By the point I made it to the grocery store, I had fully forgotten why I wished to come back right here.

…

**A couple of days later**

…..

I wakened in an unbelievably good temper after an incredible night time of deep and undisturbed sleep. That was a really uncommon prevalence for me. I received away from bed and entered the lounge the place I might odor some espresso brewing, it should be Justin working his magic.

“Good morning…” I stated sleepily as I sat down on a chair on the eating desk.

Similar to magic, a cup of espresso was positioned in entrance of me. I smiled as I sniffed the aroma of the espresso earlier than Justin sat down reverse to me.

“Morning sleepy head. A request got here in for you early this morning,” Justin introduced with a proud face.

“A request? From a consumer?” I requested to ensure that I had heard him appropriately.

“Sure,” he confirmed.

“For me?” I requested once more to verify.

“Sure,” he replied with a agency nod.

Justin positioned some papers on the desk, and I knew that it should be the contract that purchasers submitted to his company when they’re requesting for a contract spouse. I heard the sound of paper flipping as I watched Justin scan via the contract.

“I knew that you’d appeal to many purchasers however I didn’t assume that it’ll be this quick” Justin stated, sounding impressed.

“That’s surprising…” I stated truthfully.

“I gotta say, from my years of expertise, I’ve by no means seen a situation fairly like this one on a contract earlier than…” Justin stated with curiosity.

“What does it say?” I requested curiously.

Justin turned the contract paper my method earlier than sliding it throughout the desk in direction of me. I raised my eyebrows as I picked up the contract paper with the phrases and requests from the consumer. All info needed to be reviewed and agreed upon by each events earlier than we might begin our contract relationship.

“Searching for somebody who would completely not fall in love with the counter get together. Particular consideration can be given to candidates with causes to dislike or hate the consumer,” I learn the phrases that Justin had highlighted on the paper.

“Bizarre proper? I imply, asking you to not fall in love with him as a result of that can complicate issues for you each is kind of regular. Not each man or woman is shopping for this service as a result of they’re in search of love however it’s like…one other degree solely to be asking for somebody who would possibly hate him,” Justin defined.

“Yeah…effectively…” I muttered.

“It’s not a part of the contract however the consumer did submit a request for you particularly,” Justin added as his eyes watched me intently.

“For me?” I requested once more.

“Right. Oh…the speed he’s providing is loopy off the chart too. I recommend you learn the contract and what he desires correctly. You’ll be making some good progress on paying off that debt of yours when you take this job,” Justin suggested.

“Who’s the man?” I requested, my palms flipping the contract to the primary web page the place the consumer info is.

“The burning scorching bachelor that everybody’s been making an attempt to get their filthy paws on. The CEO of Renox, Brandon Byronhill!” Justin introduced excitedly.

At the very same second, my eyes landed on the title and picture of the person in query. I gasped in shock and dropped the contract onto the desk prefer it was manufactured from burning scorching steel. My coronary heart jumped into my mouth, and I felt a wave of nausea.

“How a lot is he keen to pay?” I requested in a whisper.

“Ten occasions to regular fee. His consultant stated that he’s keen to push it up extra if required. The person is loaded, I’m impressed however not stunned,” Justin replied with a squeal of enjoyment.

I held a hand up in entrance of me to cease Justin from saying anymore. All of this was attending to be an excessive amount of for me. I couldn’t maintain it in anymore. My complete physique shook earlier than I threw my head again and roared in laughter. The precise man that dumped me all these years in the past first gambled all he had simply to have intercourse with me for one night time and now he desires to make use of me as his contract spouse. Elephants will begin flying tomorrow.

“What’s so humorous? Sorry, I don’t fairly observe…” Justin stated as he stared at me in confusion.

“You keep in mind the man I dated in college, proper?” I requested.
