Deandre Romeo

"Lucas!!!" I said as I entered my bestfriend's office.

"Hey bud.. What's up?" He asked as he walked to the sofa. I plopped down on his sofa and he raised his eyebrows looking at me suspiciously.

"What?" I asked.

"You're acting weird.. What did you do?"

"I'm getting married next month." I said and he looked at me with a bored expression.

"Tell me who hit your head, I'll hit their heads back." Lucas said flatly.

"I'm not joking.." I said as I took out the invitation from my pocket. I threw it to him and he caught it. He looked at it and his eyes widen like it was going to pop up in a second. He turned to me disbelief.

"Andre! You're crazy! She has nothing to do with this!" He bursted and I got up from the sofa.

"Lucas.. You and I might be an ex-mafia but the mafia blood still runs through my veins." I said in a cold tone as I put my hands inside my pocket.

"Keep it from Crystal until the day of the wedding. Help me out here.." I said and Lucas sighed.

"Andre.. this is too much." He said as he put the invitation in a secret drawer below the table.

"Don't tell Crystal." I warned him once again.

"I won't but you should think about it again. She was engaged."

"I don't care if she's engaged.. or married.. I don't fucking care!" I hissed coldly and took a deep breath. I saw Crystal coming from the glass walls.

"She's here." I said.

"Ugh! What are you doing here again?" Crystal said when she walked into the office. I smiled at her and sat down again.

"I miss my Lucas.. you took him away from me these days. I'm jealous." I said and her jaw dropped. I chuckled and turned my head to Lucas.

"You two have fun.. I have a lot of work to catch." I said as I got up again.

"Don't come here again!" Crystal hissed and I laughed.

"C, I can't. I love your boyfriend too much to not come here again.. sharing is caring." I said smirking and she glared at me. She gestured me to go and I looked at Lucas one last time. He nodded and I walked out from the door.

I walked towards my car and my phone rang. I took it out from my pocket. I smirked big time to see who's calling me.

"Talk." I said.

"Let's meet up." Tatiana said.

"And why should I grant your wish?" I asked.

"Your office now." She ended the call and I shrugged. I out my phone back to my pocket and got into my car. I drove towards my office and completely curious what will be Tatiana's offer because I know she hates the fact that I force her to get married with me but I don't care about how she feels.

As soon as I arrived at my office, I parked my car in front of the lobby to let my chauffer take care of it. I walked inside and found Tatiana standing there in front of the information desk. She saw me and immediately walked to me.

"Let's talk in your office." She said and I walked pass her. The security guard let me pass and they lead me to the lift right away. I entered the lift first and then Tatiana entered. I pressed my office floor and closed the door.

I walked out from the lift as the door opened. I gestured my secretary to go and leave us alone. I entered my office and held the door for her to come in. I closed the door and locked in.

I walked to the sofa at the corner of the room and gestured her to sit down. I sat down and she sat in front of me.

"I can give you anything you want but I can't marry you." She said looking right into my eyes. I raised my eyebrows and tilted my head a little.

"Too bad, I don't have anything in mind." I said as I gestured her to look at the paper on the desk. She took it and her eyes widen.

"You should listen to everything I say.. or else.." I smirked and she sighed.

"Why? Why are you trying to crush my family?" She asked.

"If you try to say about canceling the marriage again.. I will take my 5 million back and you can see your dad's world falls apart in front of your eyes." I said coldly and she looked down to the table. It was like she's battling with her own mind.

"If you don't want to marry me really bad.. then take off the ring.. go home.. wait.. you all won't have a home anymore if you go out through that door with no ring on." I said and she sighed.

"You marrying me will be a definition of hell." She said to me trying to make me back off.

"Oh darling.. I'm already living in hell."

"Why marrying me when you know in the end there will be a divorce paper kissing your face?" She asked.

"Thankyou for thinking about the future but I don't really care about it to be honest." She scoffed and looked up to the ceiling. She laughed dryly and then she turned back to me.

"We don't love each other and marriage is once in a life time."

"Love? We don't need love in marriage, Tatiana. Marriage once in a life time? Oh come on.. Don't be naive, you can get married 4-5 times.. no one cares." I shrugged and her jaw dropped.

"Then find someone else!" She bursted angrily at me.

"I'm not interested at finding another one."

"You psycho!" She hissed angrily and she looked at me like she's going to kill with her long sharp nails. I just looked at her calmly but still cold.

"Move in to my house by tomorrow."

"I don't want to!"

"Try me, Tatiana. Try me.." I smirked and she looked away avoiding my eyes.
