Chapter 40 Let me be your mistress!
Matt
“Do you know if Grace will still be going ahead with the wedding?” My mom suddenly asked on my way to work. That was odd and I looked at her weirdly.
“She doesn’t have any other choice, does she?” I retorted. 
“I know right, but I woke up to a text message from her, telling me she would no longer be needing the services of the wedding planner I got.” She replied and I smirked.
“That’s her business. She’s probably trying trying to make her moves and I don’t even care. The wedding is happening and that’s final.” I chimed in. She wanted to say something but I already had enough and have to be on my way it I’d be late to my meeting. 
“I’ve got to go, mom. See you later.” I quickly added before she could talk. I leaned over, kissed her and walked out. 
I hope in the car and the driver zoomed off while I called Grace’s dad. 
“Matt!” He let out. 
“I think by now, you should have an answer for me.” I went straight to the point. 
“Of course, I was going to call you later. I’ve spoken with her and she agreed to go on with the wedding. I do have one request though.” He replied and the lips curved into a corner once he mentioned the last part. 
“I know this is an arranged marriage but Grace is my daughter and only child. I want her happiness and she can only get that if you treat her well. Please treat her with love, respect, and kindness. That’s all I request.” He explained. 
“She’s going to be my wife, and I do not need advice on how to treat my wife.” I replied and then hung up. 
I was a bit pissed with his request. It might sound harmless on the surface but a lot of things was hidden in it. I mean, why would he think he can tell me how to treat my wife? I don’t need such advice from anyone. To think Grace disrespected me so badly by sneaking around with my brother. How do I get past that and then put on a pedestal that she doesn’t deserve?
A lot of thoughts ran through my mind and the more they came, the more angry I get at her. She’s only lucky that she agreed to go on with wedding. I would have made her life and that of her family miserable…
We finally got to the office and I went straight into the conference room. The clients had just stepped in too and my assistant quickly debriefed me. 
“It’s so nice to meet you, Mr. Patel!” I let out, extending my hand to him.
We all exchanged pleasantries and then started the meeting. I was way prepared for the clients so none of their questions met me unprepared. I answered all questions and cleared every doubt. 
About two hours later, we were done with the meeting and I finally went to my office. 
“Get me coffee, please,” I said to my assistant who immediately left to make me one.
My phone started ringing then. I checked and it was an anonymous. The person has called a couple of times when the meeting was still going on. I couldn’t stop that to answer a call from a stranger that I didn’t even know.
“Heyy,” I let out after contemplating for a while if to ignore or not. 
“Heyy baby!” It was a lady and she replied in a seductive tone which made me take a deep sigh. 
From her tone alone, I could tell she was one of the girl who think a night with me gives them a lifetime access to me. 
“What do you want whoever you are? I’m not going to ask because I’m not interested. So in one word. what do you want or I hung up immediately.” I said firmly and was ready to go ahead with my warning. 
“You. You’re the one I want, Matt. I want to be yours.” She replied and before I could say a word, she already continued. 
“I’m Zoey, we’ve met before but at a business meeting with my boss. I was his assistant and I fell in love with you the moment I saw you. So here I am telling you now that I want you.” She added quickly. 
“I don’t know you Zoey, and I don’t want you either. Don’t ever call me again or you’d have yourself to blame?” I said firmly and was about to hang up when I heard her say something. 
“Is it because of her?” She asked. 
“What did you just say now?” I also asked despite hearing her well the first time. 
“Is it because you have a girlfriend already?” She asked again. 
“I’m getting married in a couple of days. I don’t need you.” 
“I don’t care about your wife. I’m happy being your mistress.” She said firmly…
