Arranged Marriage: Dangerous Heiress

Chapter 802 - Love Matter Part 1

        Natalia clenched her fist, and she wanted to smack that guy or her dad. If ever her dad would sell her out. But with this dinner arrangement, it only means that he's agreeing to it. Her fist unclenched as her father chuckled.

"Gordon, I don't have my daughters. I only accept this arrangement because your father is bugging me too much. I know that my daughter and son are intelligent, talented, handsome, and beautiful, but I don't sell them. I love them, and I want them to find love on their own."

"Mr. Mondragon, I thought my father, and you already talked?"

"We did. But I never agree to arrange marriage." He said. "I don't care if my daughter married a janitor with a good heart. As long as he won't betray her. Also, I don't know you fully." James smiled kindly. "You don't love my daughter, and I won't let someone marry her without love."

"I can learn to love…"

"But my daughter didn't love you." James exhaled. "I'm sorry, Gordon. But this is the last time. If my daughter likes you, I'll let her. If she didn't, then, I can't do anything about that. Love is all that matters."

        Natalia almost melted from her father's words. She knew it. He won't sell her off just like that. She wanted to hug him and kiss him. He's the best father after all.

        It seemed like Doctor Gordon was taken aback by what James said.

"Have a great night." James nodded and went back inside with his wife.

        Gordon seemed to stare at James's back for a while, and he fixed his coat.

"Let's go." He told his assistant. Natalia lifted her middle finger and even though Gordon won't see it, she just wanted to say 'f-ck off'. If he thought that it'll be easy for her father to marry her off to someone that she didn't know, well, good luck to him. The way he asked her father to arrange things offended her.

        She watched as the car left and she walked around searching for Ashton. She went back inside and found him laughing with Quin as they watched some video from her tablet.

"Ash, you'll help me pack things," Natalia said.

"Sure, baby," Ashton said. Natalia stopped and looked at her father and mother who seemed like they didn't care if he called her baby. She grinned and reached her hand to him. They went upstairs and called Butler.

        Natalia segregated things that she didn't need and put them on the donation box as a butler and a maid helped on packing it neatly on the box.

"I think we should sell things up here." She said and looked around her room. The window seat is her favorite.

"Is this all, Lady Talia?" The Butler asked.

"Yes," She nodded and dismissed them. She approached her beloved and flung her arms around him. "Did you eat your dinner?"

"No. But you can eat again." He gently pushed her and went to the door to lock it. "I already talked to your parents while you are busy hunting for me."

"That fast?" She creased her brows.

"Yes." He approached her and lifted her from the floor and put her on the bed.

"Are we supposed to make it here?'" She asked.

"Yeah." Ashton kissed her forehead. "We can be quick."

"I love that." She giggled. "Condom?"

"Always ready."

        After days of staying in the room like a prisoner living in a luxury, Christian finally had a chance to come out. There are guards everywhere just to make sure that he won't be able to escape. At this moment, he's having dinner with a father and his boy lover, and his original lover. It's quite interesting to eat them but he only eats to be strong for Demi.

"So, what is your plan for me?" Christian asked.

"I want you to rule the Eagle Empire after I retire," Ilya answered.

        Christian laughed.

"Sorry," He shook his head. Ilya stared at him, the same as Jacob. "Sorry, it's really funny."

        Claus chuckled and shook his head.

"What makes you think that I'll rule the Eagle Empire? I already sold it off. I give away the inheritance that I have to serve the Dragon and Phoenix Empire."

"By serving them, what do you get?" Ilya asked with those murderous eyes. He wasn't afraid of him at all. He's only afraid of Demi because she's going to kill him if he won't come back. But the explosion of the Empire Café still gets into his head.

"I receive a good amount of allowance plus hazardous pay and my salary. Also, I am free and I was loved. Their family is fun. Unlike this one."

"You can have all you wanted here, Christian. Do you want a type of girl like that heiress? The same body and look alike her? I'll give that to you."

"Demi is incomparable. There's no type of girl like her in this world. And no thank you, I don't want to sleep with anyone unless it's my girlfriend."

"Your girlfriend is dead, Christian."

        Christian clenched his fist. He didn't want to think about that.

"Then, I'll you. The two of you in exchange for the life of my beloved and my troops." Christian threatened. "What's the use of my living when they are dead? Well, the least I can do you is to stop the two of you from ruining them."

"You are insane. Is this what you get from staying and talking to Claus?" Jacob asked. Christian and Claus laughed and they high five.

"Let's stop talking to each other. They might've put us in the mental institution." Claus said. The two seemed to be weirded by how they got close to each other in a short time.

"Right."

        After dinner, he went to his room to watch movies and work out for later. But it seemed like a girl was there half-naked and lying on his bed. Then, she's playing porn on the television and it's loud. She smiled and sat up. He frowned.

        Her hair is long and bouncy. From the length of it, it's perfectly akin to Demi's hair. The ink color is also as shiny as Demi has. Her body figure is the same as Demi but she didn't have that sexy abdominal and Demi's chest is bigger than her and although they have the same height, he knew well that she's not Demi.

"Who are you?" Christian asked as he took the remote and turned off the television. She gracefully stepped on the floor and walked toward him.

"I wasn't sent here to please you, master."

"I'm not your master and I am not interested," Christian said coldly as he sat down on the sofa and chose something to watch.

        The woman took the remote from her and straddled him. Christian didn't want to touch her but it seemed he had no choice.

"They make you look like my girlfriend. However, you don't compare to her." Christian lifted her and took her silk robe and he opened the door and put her there outside and covered the robe in her front. He went back inside and locked the door.

        He went back to the sofa and turned on the television to watch something useful. While the television is on, Christian decides to walk to the balcony that has been locked from the outside. He opened the curtains and watched a few people went in and out of the house. He wondered about the security around and how it works. But the man who has control of it is the same man that is now controlling Ilya.

        The door opened and Ilya entered the room.

"You don't like the girl?" He asked.

"No," Christian said without letting his eyes off from the people outside.

"She's almost that girl."

        Christian rolled his eyes and faced him.

"Sorry, I don't get a hard-on any woman. My body only responded to Demetria."

"Nonsense! How about a man?" He suggested.

"No, offense. But I'm not a bisexual." Christian went to the window and opened it.

"Then, what do you want?" Ilya asked almost annoyed. Christian smirked and he dropped the smirk before he turned around to Ilya.

"Simple, let me go. I want to see my beloved's corpse."

        Ilya laughed out loud.

"She's dead. Her body is into pieces and burned. Do you still want to see it?"

"Yes."

        Ilya exhaled.

"I can't do that. I will train you as my heir. You need to move on. I already gave you enough days to mourn her death."

        Christian seemed to be stuck in there. He can't move. Suddenly, he felt like he's also losing air. If Demi is dead, then he's better dead too. All of the promises he made will be nothing without her. He can't love anyone with the same love he had for Demi.

"Enjoy your whiskey, cognac, or anything. Ring a button if you wanted a woman." Ilya left and closed the door.

        Christian knew that they already had a plan for that thing. But he had to knew that she's safe. His love is all that matters now. His love, Demi, is what matters to him.
