Seducing My Heartless Husband

14. The past



” I’ll wait to hear from you, I hope you have my contact number?” He asked.

” I have the company’s office number.” Marina replied. Since their earlier interactions were purely official, Marina never saw the need to have her boss’s number.

” You can also find me personally, you know where to find me. Since it’s a matter of great importance to you, do take the time to drop by the office.” Lucas said nonchalantly.

Marina was obviously displeased by his choice of words, was it only important to her alone? What about him? was he forced into it? wasn’t he the one giving more demands about taking the relationship to another level? She only proposed a relationship not marriage. He ofcourse was the one demanding she marry him, so why is the matter only important to her?

Lucas on the other side said those words intentionally. He wanted to see to what extent she can control her anger. If he was to get married, he was to atleast Marry someone who didn’t have anger issues. He wasn’t into gentle and quiet ladies, no.

Lucas preferred feisty and bold women but that didn’t mean he would appreciate someone who was short-tempered.

If he taunted her and she didn’t lash at him, then he was sure she can make a good wife for him.

He just wanted a wife to present to his grandfather so that he can stop worrying about him. To him, he didn’t think that marriage must be based on love. For someone like him who was wounded by love, he didn’t dare hope for much.

As long as his wife could be faithful and understanding, he was good to go. He would give her anything she wanted and remain faithful only to her since he chose her. She would be his one and only woman.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

” I will look for you then Mr Morgan.” Marina replied. she’s very much aware that he was taunting her bit she vowed not to give him the satsifaction of seeing her flaring up in rage.

Lucas marvelled at her degree of self control. He was satsified by his future wife. She was beautiful, bold, outspoken, hardworking and understanding. She was a full package.

Marina went to the window to observe the weather outside only to find the rain still pouring heavily.

” it seems like the rain won’t stop anytime. If you want , you can spend the night here, I have afew rooms that can accommodate you for the night.” She offered. It was getting late and bedtime was approaching. It was evident that the rain will not be stopping anytime and since they couldn’t sit all night long chatting, then offering a room for him to relax for the night was the most ideal choice. The day has been long and tiring, taking a rest now would do their bodies good.

” Okay.” Lucas replied monotonously. He couldn’t drive back home and his body was really exhausted so her idea seemed good.

” Okay, follow me.” She said heading upstairs. Her apartment was a one storey building. The ground floor was occupied by the kitchen, storeroom and her huge sitting room.

The upper floor consisted of three bedrooms and a study room.

She had occupied the master bedroom leaving two rooms empty.

Marina led Lucas upstairs and walked to the room in the furthest end. it was opposite her study room.

Opening the door she ushered him inside but opted to remain standing at the door.

“Everything you could possibly need is available, if you need anything else you can call me, I’ll be in my room.” She said and before Lucas could say his thankyou she left, not that she was expecting him to say it. With his arrogance, maybe the word thankyou didn’t exist in his vocabulary.

If you ask Marina, Lucas’s behavior wasn’t recommendable. He was arrogant, domineering, perverted and headstrong coupled with that ever expressionless face if his, he wasn’t the ideal man she could date. What Marina didn’t know was that life has made Lucas turn out that way. He was once a happy going and kindhearted boy who loved to laugh but the betrayal if his girlfriend and best friend prompted him to be withdrawn and stone faced.

His once blooming face turned expressionless.

Tina was the first woman he fell in love with. He had left behind his life as the heir of Morgan conglomerate and opted to live the life of a commoner with a common job in a low ranking company.

He thought he was happy being with the woman he loved. He just wanted to strengthen their relationship and then propose to her. He had planned to keep his identify hidden until the two of them were engaged and only then would he reveal his true identity as the heir of the Morgan family.

He had seen many cases of golddiggers running to get married to men just because they were rich. He had then decided that if he would get married then it would be because the girl loved him for who he was but not for which family he came from.

He despised the type of women who would agree to marry just because the man was wealthy but who would have thought that the woman he thought she loved him honestly was just like that.

Thinking back, he remembered how he met with Tina, he had gone camping with his friends. She was also out with her friends. When he first laid his eyes on her, he was immediately captivated. She was beautiful with a slim body and blonde hair. Wearing a casual denim pants and red t-shirt, she was breathtaking.

He had decided there and then to woo her. He had convinced his friends to keep his identify a secret and pretend that they were from a normal family.

When he informed her of his intentions, she did not accept him right away that’s why he had moved to her city and found a job there to prove his sincerity.
