Chapter 10
Jaxon barged into his assistant and best friend, Damon’s office without knocking. He immediately regretted doing so.
“Eww” his face scrunched up in disgust, as the lady who was in between Damon’s legs, immediately moved away from him covering her face.
“Seriously dude” Damon groaned, buttoning up his pants, the lady stood up from the ground as she dashed out of the office the next minute.
“You should have at least knocked” Damon rolled his eyes as Jaxon sat on the chair opposite his friend.
“And you should know the right place to bring whores to, not an office!” Jaxon fired at him.
“Trust me, man. Doing it in the office just hits different” Damon smiled as Jaxon scoffed inwardly.
“And you should do that sometime, I can arrange someone for you” he winked at Jaxon who frowned.
“Shut up!!” He snapped at him.
“Did you manage to stop my old man from coming?” He questioned about the reason why he had come to Damon’s office in the first place.
“Yes I did”
“Your grandfather is not coming back anytime soon. He extended his trip” Damon informed as Jaxon sighed in relief.
Finally, the old man was not going to bother him with marriage.
He had been pestering him to get married and even wanted to arrange someone for him.
That’s one of the reasons he needed a contracted wife, to avoid all of that.
“Finally I’m free from him, fuck” Jaxon cursed, breathing a sigh of relief.
“Why?”
“You and June would have really made a good couple” Damon shrugged his shoulders as Jaxon glared at him.
“What’s up with the look? We both know she wants you and your grandfather thinks she’s the perfect match for you”
“Not anymore” Jaxon chimed in. Getting married to Ruby really solved a lot of problems for him.
“I asked you to get something, have you caught that bitch who almost ruined my plans??” He asked, referring to the woman he was originally meant to get married to.
They had already agreed on terms, and then she disappeared out of nowhere, putting him in a tight spot.
“No” Damon replied.
“It’s like she disappeared into thin air” he added.
“You know I don’t want to hear any of that shit, find her and bring her to me. Alive” Jaxon deadpanned, his eyes blazing with anger.
He just couldn’t wait to get his hands on her and strangle her to death.
“I’ll kill her myself ” he gritted his teeth.
“As you wish”
“Her house is empty and there’s no reports of her in any hospital neither is there any report of her leaving the country ” Damon reported.
“I don’t care, just find her and bring her to me” Jaxon stated with clenched fist.
He already paid her but she bailed out and ran away with his money.
The money was not his problem, his problem was that she dared to defile him and now he had ended up with someone he completely hated. Ruby.
He hated her guts.
“I will rest assured” Damon smiled.
“Good” Serena, the girl he was supposed to marry was not particularly rich.
He settled for someone poor because he felt it would be easier that way.
He only needed a wife as a name, there was nothing else. No one would know of Ruby, no one. She would keep on living her normal life and he would only see her when she was needed, Aside from that, there was nothing he had to do with her.
“What about your wife?” Damon suddenly asked, as if he knew Jaxon was thinking about Ruby.
“What about her?”
“When will I get to meet her?”
“You don’t need to meet her”
“Why?” Damon pouted.
“It would be nice to meet my sister in law”
“Fake” Jaxon corrected.
“I think you made a good choice, she looked pretty in the mask she wore. There’s a few photos of her that I saw” Damon informed.
“When can I meet her? I should know her, don’t you think”
“You don’t need to know her,” Jaxon said in a cold voice.
“Come to think of it, nor you’re at it. You should have a good time with her, I know she won’t be able to resist your charms” Damon suggested as he waited eagerly for Jaxon’s reply.
“Good time my foot! I can hardly stand her ” he scoffed.
“Why? You sound as if you don’t like this particular lady, what’s her name again…hmmm” Damon drew out trying to recollect Ruby’s name, he had seen it in the contract she signed.
“Umm, I think it was Ru…Rumi, Ruthie, Ru..”
“It’s Ruby ” Jaxon corrected.
“Yes, Ruby”
“if you don’t like her, I can try to shoot my shot with her, she looked hot in that dress, fuck!” Damon cursed biting his lips hard.
“Take your perverted eyes off her, or I’ll pluck them out!” Jaxon threatened as he sat up from the chair he was sitting on.
“Focus on the task at hand and stop getting hand jobs from place to place,” Jaxon said sarcastically as Damon laughed.
“Have a nice day” Jaxon uttered as he left the office.
