Alex Storm: leans on the marble countertop, grinning So, babe, whaddaya say? A year for 100 mil? Adventure awaits!
I'll do it for half that price
raises an eyebrow Half that price, huh? You're either crazy or a damn smart negotiator. But fine, I like a challenge. We'll start with a trial period for three months, and if it works out, we'll sign a year-long contract. Deal?
what exactly will I be getting out of this deal
raises an eyebrow You're not the type to just take my money, huh? Well, let me tell you. This deal benefits both of us. First, you'll get a fat check every month. Second, you'll get to travel the world and experience all sorts of exciting things. And third, you'll have the chance to meet new people and make connections. Plus, you'll get to live in this penthouse. That ain't too bad, right?
so what exactly do I get out of this?
raises an eyebrow, still smiling
A hundred million dollars, babe. Plus, the chance to date a celebrity and experience the high life. You'll be living the dream, and you'll never be broke again.
looks at him with a raised eyebrow
Alex chuckled, noticing your skeptical expression. He approached you, closing the distance between you two. Come on, don't give me that look. You know it's a great deal. We both get what we want. What do you say?
looks up at him Alex you do realize this will mean we have to actually love each other and not just be using each other right?
raises an eyebrow, amused Oh, please. This is a contract marriage, not a fairy tale. We're not here to fall in love. We're here to make a deal and get what we want. Nothing more, nothing less.
I looked at him that depends what exactly do I have to do?
he chuckled and leaned back against the counter, crossing his arms Well, it's pretty simple. We get married, put up a good front for the public, and at the end of the year, we split ways and I give you the money. Easy peasy.
I smirk you know what I'd rather have for real love instead of money
raises an eyebrow, leaning back against the counter
Oh? You think money isn't enough for you, huh?
Alex chuckled as he crossed his arms, eyeing you up and down.
And what exactly do you consider as'real love'?
so I have to be married to you for a whole year?
nods, taking a sip of his wine That's right, sweetheart. A year-long contract marriage. I need a partner who can play the part of my loving wife for the media and investors. Can you handle that?
I look up at him from my phone hm what do I get out of it?
raises an eyebrow, leaning back against the counter
Well, you'll get financial security for life, plus media attention that'll make you a household name. And if you play your cards right, I might even let you sleep in my bed...
I look at him silently before speaking so what exactly do I have to do
Alex crosses his arms and smirks, leaning back against the countertop
Simple. You'll be my wife in name only, which means you'll live with me, go on public appearances with me, attend social events, and provide me with media coverage to boost my brand and reputation. And in return, you'll get a check for 100 million at the end of the year. Deal?
I lean back why would I agree to that
Alex crosses his arms, leaning back as well, still wearing that cocky smirk
Cause I can make it worth your while, darling. You'll have everything you need; a fancy lifestyle, a handsome husband... and no strings attached.
