Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Wife

‘I have to make her talk no matter what, its just stupid that she is ignoring me deliberately.’

Lucas knew he had to make sure what was the main issue, and for that they both needed to talk.

‘We need to converse on the issue, I have to make her comfortable so she trusts me.’

He had been consistently thinking about making her comfortable and easy.

“Hey, are you hungry?”

He questioned her by breaking the silence and snagged her attention that Nathalie looked at him with a blank expression, which infuriated him.

‘Great! Now she is not even listening to me.’

Somehow he forced a smile over his lips and made sure to repeat his statement in a gentle tone.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“I asked, if miss Nathalie wants to grab a cup of coffee?”

Lucas asked her again but this time his tone was sarcastic, as the man raised his one eyebrow and glanced at her. Nathalie sighed helplessly and had no clue what to say to him after that she had been clearly ignoring Lucas.

“Err, sure.”

Nathalie spoke in an annoyed tone which did not go unnoticed from him, Lucas was also aware that he had to sort out the stuff all by himself since Nathalie hadn’t been giving him any reason or clues about the actual issue.

The man changed his route and went towards a certain cafe he knew in the area, after all he had to make sure that somehow in the process he wouldn’t mess up his identity. Thus the man chose a cafe which had cheaper rates, so he could afford and the taste would be reasonable too.

Nathalie cast a look outside when she saw the cafe they both had just reached, as Lucas crept out and opened the door for her. And they both walked inside, whereas a man on the other side on the road clicked their pictures.

YES! The man was placed there on the duty by Diego, who wanted the information about Nathalie’s husband. But he might never had thought in his wildest dreams that he would turn out to the great Lucas Petrakis!

Inside the cafe Lucas showed her the way and they both seated themselves slightly away from the window.

“What do you want to have, love?”

Lucas asked her while looking round cautiously, whereas Nathalie stayed silent thoughtfully before she could speak.

“You can pick whatever you want, I will pay.”

Nathalie insisted on paying when Lucas sternly scolded her.

“Hey! I maybe poor but I do get paid for my services.”

He reminded her of getting wage although it was measly amount, but the money was enough to buy Nathalie a cup of coffee if Lucas didn’t use his own card.

“Haha! Okay sure, Mr macho man.”

She laughed at him softly seeing his red angry face, then allowed him to do however he pleased. Lucas ordered the coffee he knew Nathalie liked, before he began to talk to her about the issue.

“Nathalie, what exactly is happening?”

Lucas started his inquiring when someone approached him and called out his name.

“Lucas!”

The man recognized the voice which no doubt was familiar, and turned around to see the source.

‘What Sandro is doing here!?’

Alessandro Petrakis stood there clad in the uniform of a waiter approached them both, Lucas grasped his senses imminently after realizing that he could still cover up the situation.

He glanced at Nathalie who had been staring at him waiting for any kind of reply.

“Ah! It’s you, how’s, you doing bro?”

He pretended as if Sandro was just another regular waiter, who knew Lucas since he was a regular customer.

“Bro, why are you-?”

Sandro had sensed his nervousness and was about to ask him, but Lucas imminently interrupted him playing along as if he had already known the question. And stood up as he wrapped his arm around Sandro’s shoulder.

“Of course, I’m here, can’t you see? Here, meet miss Nathalie!”

Nathalie who had been looking at both of them with a soft expression, waved her hand although the lady felt giddy after hearing her name being taken with his.

The feeling was sweeter than any kind of honey.

‘How wonderful this feeling is, hearing my name with Lucas’s it feels as if I’m the luckiest person alive!’

Nathalie could not deny that she loved him and had truly fallen for the man, who apparently had nothing to give her except love, and emotional support.

Lucas turned around after Sandro has waved Nathalie back, and the two brothers walked a few steps away from the seating. No wonder both of them were shocked to encounter each other there. Sandro didn’t expect his brother who had every kind of luxury to arrive at a mediocre bar with a woman, whereas Lucas never thought that his only brother would be in a miserable condition.

“What are you doing here?”

Lucas whispered to him in utter irritation, while Sandro lifted up his notepad and pointed out at his shirt.

“Duh! What do you mean by that? I work here, but what are you doing here?”

Sandro seemed excited and confused while made Lucas raised his eyebrows in suspicion.

“By the way, why are you sounding as if we have a good relationship?”

Lucas mocked him while Sandro let out a bitter smile on his face, before speaking.

“I want to mend our relationship, brother. I realized that there are more important things in life other than earning money.”

Sandro spoke in a saddened tone which made Lucas curious about the sudden change.

“I’m glad that you have changed towards betterment, Sandro. I tried hard to make dad change his mind but he didn’t hear anybody.”

Lucas put his hand on his brother’s shoulder and spoke with an encouraging tone.

“I will tell about you to mom, she will be so happy to hear that you are safe, although not doing well.”

Sandro chuckled and smacked shoulder when he questioned his brother with a naughty gaze.

“Who is she? Is she my sister-in-law? And why did you bring your girlfriend to a place like this?”

Alessandro Petrakis bombarded a series of queries at him, while Lucas glanced back at where Nathalie had been sitting and warmth filled in his body; he knew he was doomed the day he saw her on the tv!

-.-.-.-.-.-

For those who don’t know Alessandro Petrakis, he is Lucas’ younger brother.
