Sold to Mr. Arrogant

I watched Dad as he went to sleep and then I left myself. I should not be saying the word dad now but I still I am used to it, it is not worth it to try to change his title. I do not know why but for some reason, I felt bad about myself. I was a burden on dad's shoulders my whole life.

I brushed this idea off as I stepped out of the car and went up to my room, now I know for sure that Shawn's uncle is somehow involved with my father, also, Gerald clearly has an ulterior motive.

" Jessy, is Gerald still awake?" I asked.

" Yes, miss," Jessy called me 'miss' since we were outside of my room and her words might be heard. Gerald is a fan of hierarchy which suits his status well.

" Did you finish your visit?" Gerald questioned as he saw me entering his office. He was typing on his laptop and immersed in his work.

" Yes thankfully, Should I come back later?"

" No, I probably know what you want to talk about, I do not want to procrastinate this any longer," he stated as he stood up to focus on our conversation.

" Shawn told me that he has signed a contract with you in which he would work in his company and also in yours for half a year,"

" Yeah, that is true. You did a great job accomplishing your mission, Lily."

" I guess we shall sign our contract as well," I initiated.

" Sure thing, here you go," he said while giving me the document I previously signed.

next day was soon to come, I ate breakfast as usual with Gerald and Shawn drove me to college. Before I stepped out, Shawn
