"Dad." I shook my head. "I don't want to get married. I-it's not, this isn't how it's meant to be."
My parents told me to get all ready for a fancy dinner, and once i was ready and in the car, they decided to inform me i was on the way to meet my future husband.
I came from a rich family. My parents were both high-end in business. They were famous, rich, world-known.
Everyone thinks i had a dream childhood, but i didn't. In reality, i was neglected a lot.
I only just turned 23, and now im being married off.
My father spoke, in his deep calm tone. "You will be marrying him."
"Who even is he?"
"You'll see."
Our limo hauled to a stop, and we stepped out. We were at a very fancy, special restaurant.
My parents walked infront of me and i followed them.
We went into a private room.
I saw none other, than Rhys Sloan and his parents.
The Sloans were very important in the business world. My parents and them were very close friends in the business.
Rhys, he was known for his perfect looks, tall, tan, muscular, tatted, dark hair and green eyes. He was a beautiful man.
"Hi, nice to meet you." I smiled sweetly shaking Rhys's hand, and then his parents before we sat at the table, Rhys opposite me, his eyes cold.
I felt his eyes on me. I was wearing a pastel pink silk dress, showing cleavage, i had expensive gold jewlery, my blonde curls tied into a slick back ponytail, my makeup fresh and soft.
It was quiet, and awkward. Our parents began to talk, and Rhys just glared at me like i was the problem.
My father nudged me, and i looked at him and told Rhys's father, Matt.
"You're a beautiful young lady." Matt said, "How old are you?"
"Twenty three." I said calmly, as if i wasn't sweating and burning up. "So, why, why are we here?"
"Us, as your parents have decided that you both will be getting married. You're both single, well known, and important. It will bring our families together and make so much money." Matt said.
I nodded slowly, glancing at Rhys. He just stared cold, but i watched his jaw clench and his knuckles tighten on the table.
"And if we don't?" I said.
I felt my father's hand tap my thigh under the table. I took a deep breathe.
"If you don't?" Matt raised a brow, "I think you'll both probably be disowned."
I looked at my parents, and they didn't object. I looked at Rhys and he just glared at our parents.
I felt my chest tightening.
Suddenly, Rhys's phone began to ring. He looked at it and at his parents before mumbling his first words of the night.
"I have to take this." He said answering.
I watched his face soften listening to the phone call.
"I know, baby." He said into the phone.
I frowned. Baby? Does he have a girlfriend?
"Dont cry, shhh. I know. I'll be home soon." He looked at his parents who were glaring at him, and back at me who was frowning. "I'll be home soon, Lou."
I watched his jaw clench as the conversation continued. "I love you too, i'll come kiss you goodnight once i'm home."
And suddenly it donged on me a memory i forgot.
He has a daughter.
