My Unexpected Marriage - Chapter 25

After an hour, Drake reached Zeus Construction. He went straight to his brother’s office.

“Brother, why are you looking for me? Did something happen?”

Zeus took his eyes from his top and stood from his chair. Then he walked towards Drake and grabbed his brother’s left arm and twisted it.

“AHH… bro… stop it please… it hurts…AHH…” Drake tried to release his arm from his brother’s hand while jumping up and down in pain.

“Why didn’t you tell me about the rumors about me?” He asked

“AHH… big bro please let my hand go. I will explain everything to you.”Drake gave reply straight away.

Zeus let his brother’s hand go and stood in front of him.

“Explain” he ordered.

“It’s true that I knew about the rumors but I wanted the rumors to be true, so that the ‘biggest’ rumor about you will become a fake rumor.” Drake said while rubbing off the pain from his arm.

Zeus thought about it and said.

“If she hears about the rumor, everything will be in chaos again.”

Drake also thought about it after he heard his brother. He also thought if Shanell hear about the rumor, how will she react to it? Yes everything will become chaos again. But even if they try to stop the rumors, it won’t work unless they reveal who is the real fiancée of Zeus.

“Brother, I will try my best to stop the rumors reaching sister-in-law.”

“No. She will find out about the rumors even if we tried to hide it. So let it be.”

“But brother…”

“No buts Drake. If we try to hide it, she will hear it from someone in the end. So don’t do anything. I will deal with it if she comes to know about it.”

“Okay brother.”

“One more thing Drake. If you hear any rumors about me, report it.” Zeus said.

“Yes brother.” Drake answered.

Zeus waved to him to leave and Drake left in an instant.

Shanell reached the HR Department, and they interviewed her for a long thirty minutes. She didn’t understand why the interviewer was more interested in her personal details than interviewing her. Fortunately Zeus informed the HR that they should interview a girl whose name is Shanell Williams, so she used her fake identity to work in the Zeus Constructions. After her interview she came out of the HR and saw the girl who argued with her in front of the building standing there. Shanell understood that it is her who wants to know about her details and so the interviewer asked those questions about her. Shanell umed that the interviewer must be a friend of this arrogant girl. She walked past Emma ignoring her completely. Emma immediately went in to meet her friend, Juliana Kelsey, who interviewed Shanell. .

“Emma, you are here?” She asked seeing her.

“Did you get her details?” Emma asked arrogantly.

Even though Juliana didn’t like Emma much because of her character, she had to pretend that she is her friend because if the rumors about her and big boss is true and if she didn’t treat her good then it will be fatal for her. So she tried to ignore the bitterness in her mind and said.

“Did you see her? She had an interview today because someone recommended her. Do you know who recommended her?”

“No. Who recommended her and tell me her details that you found during the interview?” Emma said impatiently.

“Big boss is the one who recommended her.”

“What???”

“Yes it is the truth he is the one who recommended her. And you know something else he wanted her to be his secretary even if she is not qualified for the post. Luckily the girl got the skills.” Juliana said.

This made Emma more furious. Because she was the only person in the company who have been appointed by the recommendation of Zeus, and she didn’t know why he recommended her till now. But the rumors spread in no time and everyone treated her like she is special. Before she was a no one and now she is special. Eventually she started to believe the rumors too because there is no other reason to recommend her other than he has feelings for her.

Juliana told everything she got from Shanell to Emma. Emma instantly went out to find Shanell. Juliana followed her. They saw Shanell near the elevator, and they both went to her.

“Hey you…” Emma called.

“Are you talking to me?” Shanell asked her.

Emma couldn’t take the attitude of Shanell towards her.

“Do you know who I am? Do you think you can work in this company after offending me?” Emma asked in anger.

Everyone around them heard the noise and started to gather around them. Shanell looked puzzled by the situation. She had a ‘do I have to know you’ look on her face.

“Do you know that you are being nosy?” Shanell asked. And everyone gathered around them gasped hearing her words which made Shanell even more in confusion. She looked at the crowd.

“Juliana tell her about me and make her understand that she should never mess with me again.” Emma said to Juliana.

Juliana went near Shanell right away and told her about the rumors about Emma and big boss. Shanell tried to hold her laugh for a second and said.

“OMG… I am really sorry I didn’t know about it. I am so sorry about earlier too. I will try to behave properly from now on.” Shanell said.

“I am forgiving you now because you are a newbie.” Emma said hearing Shanell apologizing.

“Thank you and please take care of me from now on ma’am.” Shanell mocked her.

“ARE YOU MOCKING ME BITCH…???” Emma screamed.

“What if I am?” Shanell asked.

“YOU… YOU… WAIT I WILL SHOW YOU WHO I AM…” Emma screamed even louder and left.

Everyone gathered around started whispering and their stares were too much so Shanell turned towards the elevator. After a few minutes the elevator stopped in front of her and opened its door.
