I got ready to meet this James Parker. I came downstairs only to see Belle talking with someone on the phone. She was wearing her sports shoes and hence the call was on speaker. A female voice sounded on the phone. She was probably talking with her friend. Her friend asked in a surprising voice, “You broke your marriage arrangement with James Parker?”
“Or else? Do you want me to marry an ugly disfigured man who is sexually defective? No way! Such a man only suits my boring sister, not me.” Belle replied while flickering her hair.

I know right! But why did you agree to this marriage before?” Her friend’s voice
was filled with confusion. I too wanted to know the answer. I saw Belle smiling decisively while saying, “It’s because he is a millionaire‘ s son. I thought I could

enjoy his money while fooling around with other men. But, I didn’t know that he is an eyesore in his father’s eyes. Mr. Daniel has even announced publicly that he will not give a penny to him from his wealth. He is a black ship of the family. What’s the use of marrying him then?”
Belle paused for a while. The smile on her lips spreaded even larger as she continued,
“On the other hand, Mr. Daniel doesn’t have any heir to his property. Jayden is a close relative to him. After his death, his property must pass to Jayden. After marrying Jayden, I’ll be super rich.”
Turns out Belle was marrying Jayden only because of the money he might inherit from Mr. Daniel. She broke my two years long relationship and seduced my fiance just to satisfy her greed for money. I was mad at her and wanted to go confront her. But again, for whom? For Jayden? He was not innocent either. He couldn’t hold it up in his pants and got seduced by beauty. He broke my trust. He was equally guilty. Both

of them suited each other. I smiled
ironically thinking this and walked out.
Our meeting was fixed in a five star hotel. I got a few minutes late. I found James waiting for me on the reserved table. A man was standing near him, probably his assistant or bodyguard I assumed.Two empty mugs of coffee showed me he was not used to waiting for someone. I
apologised in a formal voice and sat down. before him. I stared at his face for a while.
He had black spots all over his face. However, if we removed these spots, he was actually breathtaking handsome. It seems like people just love exaggerating things. Removing those black spots on his face, he was a tall man with a broad jawline and fair complexion.
He initiated the conversation with, “You
are late, Miss Hudson. Do you have nothing to say?”
I coughed before saying, “You aren’t as ugly as people say.

“You-” The man standing near him looked offended by my comment and wanted to say something. But, James waved his hands, hinting him to stop. He then said in a deep manly voice, “You aren’t the girl I was going to marry.”
You are right. She doesn’t want to marry an ugly disfigured man who is incapable in bed.” I repeated Belle’s words without hesitation as I continued, “So, she
snatched my man from me and here I’m sitting in front of you.”
He stared at me for a while. He then lit a
cigarette, put it inside his lips and bent his head near me before saying in a deep voice, “I know you are not interested in me.”
There was something in his voice that sent shivers down my spine whereas he added, “But I promise to make this arrangement beneficial for both of us.‘
