CH.7: I have already thought...

[Naira's POV]

Y'know I really wanna appreciate that god-like person in front of me, but damn I've got allot going on so, I just watched his every movement trying to read what he's thinking or trying to understand, its hard thou people like him (I guess) are very unpredictable. And here I am watching more like staring, the way his shoulders tensed and relaxed, how his eyebrows were knitted together while he was listening to me and thinking about my words and now they relaxed.

Well after all I had a whole night of thinking...

******************************************

[Last night]

I had to leave, I got to know about MY marriage from someone else, no one from my family told me.After remembering dad's and Noah's faces, anger built inside, how could they!?I don't know what I felt that moment...I had to clear up my mind seriously.There are allot of things which did't add up after mum's death: dad and brother's behaviour/ changed towards me, Sonia seemed to have my dad wrapped around her finger, uncle started working at the company on a higher post all of a sudden with my brother but without my dad being there, Seirra is treating herself like she is the heiress, and importantly, the properties which were on my mothers name were all transferred to me a.s.a.p, especially the ones which only dad knew about or brother and me.Most,very important one is that I had some company's shares under me combined with mom's. If I am to die before the age of 22 or 23 all of this would given to help the NGO's or something...It's just weird.

Well, back to that guy, um..actually let me just search it up.Hmm, 'Kyle McCain, the 'only' successor, eligible bachelor...'I think I should call him.

"Hello,it's me"

"Huh? who..."

"Max! are you still glued to your girlfriend?" I swear to god, this guy...doesn't sleep until he gets his work done, he has the tendency to work until the whole box of instant noodles run out.

"Ah heyy, you forgot about me huh??"

"stop! I mean it Max, just stop typing and listen I need a favour..."

"aha of course you need a favour, no wonder you are calling me,so wssup"

"I need info on Kyle McCain, as much as possible, but it will be better if its about who he actually is and how much power does he actually hold especially the amount o f his company's shares and all...y'know what, so get on with it"

"Woahh wait what the hell did he do to you that you are after his background and all... And most importantly what do I get, cuz honey I will be risking my neck if I am to go through stuff about him y'know."

"2 million?"

"thats-"

"And your favorite meal, home cooked by 'moi'' "

"okay...deal! BUT I want 2.5 I am kinda on the run...*cough*cough*"

"...again? Dude! you gotta stop getting into that! Anyway, okay 2.5 it is, but no food sorry-"

"....ugh fine, gimme like 30 minutes or so I'll get back at you"

"kay"

***30 minutes later***

"So, here's what I found....~blahblahblah~blahblahblah~

"Uhhh ookkk,mm got it.thanks man"

"so are you gonna tell me why do you wanted all that?"

"I will...But not now. I have already transferred the money, take care and please try not to die I would need you;)chuckle"

"Yeah I know, don't worry.You too I would need you so don't die.Bye"

"byee"

Phew..hmm I think I know what to do now.It'll be good to lay low from the prying eyes.even though I hate the idea itself of marriage, I think I'll put up with for now,not that it's gonna last forever...I just need some time.

[Present]

I think I should use my trump card now,

"Uhm,I had this little thought about why agreed to this crap..." This seemed to have gotten his attention, then I continued,"Who would have thought that there would be a way to threaten and force the 'Successor of McCain Enterprise' with some shares..." Now his eyebrows shot up, looking straight in my eye trying to guess how much I might know."Well, you know there are some shares of your company under me and my dad, although I don't have that much, but if we were to add the amount dad has, you'll be good and none of your 'so-called' cousins can compete with you ..."His eyes were widened...now trying to guess how much more I might know, he didn't say anything, just sat quietly, those eyes focused on my every movement and almost threatening me. But he doesn't know, my shamelessness knows no bound."It's not like we will be stuck together forever, like I said before...we will make up some excuse after a year or so, and with that you will get you grandpa's share mine and my dads.With of course a condition..." he looked at me with interest and lifted his eyebrows telling me that he is listening," I would like you to make sure that my Sonia and her daughter(AKA-my step-mother and sister) don't get any share from my father's company whether it's my dad's or my uncle,brother or mine. In order to show you my honesty,I will my share right now, and you will sign that contract I have prepared for you and me" I said it, giving a very cheeky smile.

I am just hoping,hoping and hoping, It seems like its working.I just kept a straight face showing no emotion now, I can see he is trying to figure me out, 'but honey it's not that easy...'

"Smart,you are quite smart.."

'well duh bit*h, I don't have IQ of 207 for nothing' I thought

"well about about your conditions I...", I held my breath and crossed my fingers'. "I agree to them, so I'll sign the contract"

"And I'll sign the share transfer"I said letting out my breath which I held so long.

*exchanged the documents and signed them*

"Well there you go, a copy for you and 'Happy Cooperation' "I said standing up holding my hand out for a shake. Which he returned by shaking mine.

"Did you stay out all night?" he asked me and it sure surprised me allot.

"Um,yeah I did. I had lots of thinking to do as you can see" I replied "Well okay I'll get going,thanks for the time AND it would probably be good if you don't mention any of this...to anyone"

"Yeah, I won't don't worry "

I just nodded and turned to head out, he was walking/me out...I left without turning around. YESSSSS!!!!!
