《The Billionaire's Proposal》A Ring + Moving In
Advertisement
I stare up at my ceiling in deep thought. What the hell did I get myself into? My life is going to take a drastic turn from this point. Did I make the right chose by accepting his proposal? I just signed my life to the devil himself. I let out a long sigh before standing up from my bed. Enough thinking, I don't want to think anymore. I grab my grey sleeping robe and put it on without tying it. I walk to the mini kitchen and start on my breakfast. I tie my hair into a messy bun so I don't get any hair in my food. I crack some eggs and pour them into the pan. I grab the spatula and move it around. Once the scrambled eggs are ready I place them on a plate and grab the bacon from the fridge. I clean the pan before frying my bacon. Once it's ready and at my liking I place the three strips of bacon next to my scrambled eggs and turn of the stove before placing the pan in the sink. I am about to take a seat and start eating my breakfast when the doorbell rings and I groan. I stand up and open my apartment door to reveal,
"Adrian?" I ask confused as to why he was here and how he knew where I lived? Stalker much.
"What the he'll are you doing here?!" I question.
"I am here to pick you up, you are going to move in with me today." He answers.
"What if I don't want to?" I defy and his blue eyes give me a hard stare.
"You are mine now Jane and you will do as I tell you." He growls.
"I am not one of your workers who you can boss around at your liking!" I reply as my anger starts to rise.
Why did I agree to marry this man?!
"You are my fiancé soon to be wife now do as I tell you and go pack your stuff." He responds his eyes moving down to my body.
I finally realize that I was only wear my grey girl boxers and white singlet. I quickly tie my robe and try to cover as much skin as possible.
"Fine mister bossy pants." I reply. "And by the way my eyes are up here."
"I will send someone to come pick up your stuff and take them to the mansion. They will be here shortly so out something different on. I will be back for you in an hour and a half." He responds before he walks out the door he turns around and growls, "And don't you ever yell at me again."
The tone of his voice caused goosebumps to run down my back and arms. I quickly shut the door and let out a deep sigh.
"Next time give me a heads up." I state to to myself.
With a huff I walk over to the table and start eating my breakfast which had cooled down. Great now I have to reheat it, curse you Adrian McKeller.
***
Once I am done with my food I head to my room and pick out something to wear. I put on a pair of navy blue jeans, a black and red patterned flannel with a lace trim, and a pair of black lace TOMS. I tie my hair into a neat side ponytail before I start packing my stuff. The furniture came with the apartment so I don't have to worry about that. I only need to pack my clothes, shoes, and eating/cooking utensils. In the end I only ended up using two medium suit cases for my clothes, and three boxes for the other stuff. It only took me and hour to pack my stuff so I decide to at least apply some light make up. I still had twenty minutes until Adrian would arrive to come and pick me up. As I am placing some money into my bag there is a knock on the door. I walk over and open the door.

Two muscular men were standing in the other side and one of the asks, "Are you Jane Hamilton?"
"Yes, what can I do for you?" I ask.
"Mr. McKellar sent us to come pick up your stuff." The other man answers.
"Oh yeah right, come in the boxes are in the living room." I state as I open the door fully so they can come in.
They take the three boxes and two suit cases and carry them to the door.
"Is this it?" The first man asks and I nod in response.
"Thank you." I respond before closing the door.
I head into the living room and take a seat as I wait for Adrian. Another ten minutes passed and I was getting bored. Just as I was about to pull out my phone there is a knock on the door. I open the door and Adrian is standing on the other side of the door.
"Are you ready to go?" He asks.
My eyes scan my apartment making sure I didn't forget anything before I turn around and answer, "Yeah let me just grab my bag."
I walk into the living room and grab my black leather handbag before walking out of the apartment making sure to lock the door. We were walking towards the elevator doors when Garret my neighbor walked out of his apartment and smirked as soon as he saw me. He ran his hand through his beach blonde hair as his eyes ran over my body.
"Hey Jane where are you going?" He asks and I roll my eyes in annoyance.
"None of your business, now can you excuse me?" I ask as I try to walk past him but he blocks my way.
Ever since I moved in Garret has been hitting on me. Yet no matter how many times I tell him to fuck off he won't. Why can't he just take no for an answer?
"Calm down babe no need to get feisty," he states before he leans down and whispers in my ear, "Although I do like them to act like that in the bed."
I look at him with a disgusted look as he licks his lips.
"Now I wanted to see if you were free tonight, maybe you and I could grab a couple of drinks and-"
"She isn't going anywhere with you." Adrian's growls as he pulls me towards him.
"Oh really and why is that?" Garret asks as he crosses his arms over his chest.
"Because she is my fiancé." Adrian replies.
"Really because I don't see any ring." Garret answers.
"Well that doesn't concern you now does it? Now will you excuse me, please." I state before pushing last Garret with Adrian right behind me.
"I always knew you were a gold digger Jane." Garret responds.
Adrian's hands form a fist before he turns around and throws Garret a right hook. Garret falls on the floor as he clutched his cheek.
"Don't every call my girlfriend a gold digger, understood?" Adrian asks and Garret nods as he stares up at Adrian with a frighten look on his face.
Adrian just punched someone for me, huh maybe this year won't be so bad after all.
I walk into the elevator with Adrian right behind me and press the number for the first floor.
"Can you stop being a big flirt, I don't want to go punching every guy that crosses paths with you." Adrian states and my mouth hangs open in disbelief.

"A big flirt? That guy was the one who got in my way, I told him to move but he didn't. What did you want me to do, throw him a right hook so he could move?!" I retort with anger.
"What did I tell you about yelling at me Jane?" He asks.
His cold blue eyes stare into my chocolate brown ones before I answer, "What did I tell you about bossing me around?"
Adrian runs a hand through his light brown hair as his jaw clenches. There is a ding before the elevator doors slide open and I quickly step out not wanted to be near that man any second longer. I walk towards Hector the landlord, desk and hand him my apartment keys.
"Good morning Hector, I am so sorry but I have to move due to a family emergency. Here is the apartment key, and the rent for this month." I state as I hand him the envelop with the money.
"Oh okay thank you for letting me know. Bye dear." He responds as he takes the money and keys.
"Bye." I reply before running after Adrian who was already making his way out.
He lets go of the door as soon as I am about I walk out. Rude much, I thought he was supposed to be a gentleman.
"Sorry to disappoint you sweetie but gentleman isn't in my vocabulary." He states.
Oh shit did I say that out loud?
"Well I thought that your parents at least taught some manners but apparently they didn't." I respond.
"You better stop it with that smart mouth." Adrian threatens.
"Or else what?" I ask as I cock an eyebrow.
"Don't test me Jane, now get in." Adrian states as we stop in front of a red Audi Sports Car.
My mouth falls down and Adrian closes it, "Close your mouth wouldn't want any flies to get in now would we?"
I open the door to the passenger seat and get into the car. I buckle myself up before Adrian starts up the car and it roars to life. He didn't even put in the radio! Such a dull person, and I thought I was boring. I look out the window as we drive past the busy Miami streets. When the car comes to a stop I expected a big mansion to be standing in front of us but instead I find a Cartier Jewelry Store.
"Um what are we doing here?" I ask in confusion.
"Well I realized you didn't have an engagement ring and we can't pull off our lie if you don't have one so I brought you here so you can pick the one you like." He answers as we step out of the car.
I unbuckle myself before stepping out of the car and walking towards the store entrance doors. We walk in an we are greeted by the shine of the expansive looking diamond rings. Beautiful jewelry filled the store and they all looked like they cost millions of billions of dollars. A woman around Adrian's age if not a little older, walks behind the counter and smiles at Adrian.
"Good morning Adrian, how may I help you?" She asks as she twirls a piece of her hair.
"It's Mr. McKeller for you, and would you show me your top engagement rings?" Adrian responds.
The woman frowns before taking out two different display trays with various engagement rings on them.
"Which one do you like?" Adrian asks.
I look at the various diamond rings but they all screamed rich and powerful. None of them caught my attention except for one. It had small diamonds forming a leaf pattern and a big diamond was placed in the middle. It was beautiful. I look over at the price and my eyes nearly pop out, not beautiful anymore.
Adrian follows my gaze and asks, "Do you like that one."
I bite my lip and nod.
"Krystal give me this one please." Adrian orders.
"No, Adrian I can't let you waste five hundred thousand dollars on me?!" I state.
"Don't worry I have the money to buy it plus I am already going to waste ten million dollars on you at the end of the year." He replies.
"Would you like to try it on Mr. McKellar?" She asks.
"Yes please." He replies.
The woman hands him the ring and he slides it into my finger, surprisingly it fit perfectly. Adrian takes out his wallet before paying for the ring. I walk out of the store with the ring still on, Adrian didn't even let me take it off. He opens the door for me and I smirk.
"I thought gentleman wasn't in your vocabulary?" I ask and Adrian just rolls his eyes.
"Just get in." He responds before walking to the drivers seat.
"Uh thanks for the ring." I state.
"You're welcome, it's part of the deal." He replies.
I play around with the ring as look out the window. The clouds seemed to drive with us as drive down the Miami streets.
***
We finally arrive at the big black iron gates that stood in front of the big mansion.
"James let us in." Adrian states before the gates are opened.
"Good day Mr. McKeller." The security guard states as we drive through the gates.
"Good day James." He responds before we park outside the big yellow mansion.
In front of us stood a three story tall building which was painted a nice light yellow and palm trees surrounded it. There was a jacuzzi, two pools link together, a small path leading to a private beach, and a fishing dock. It was beautiful, if this is what it looked on the outside how does it look on the inside.
"Welcome to your new home." Adrian states before grabbing my hand and leading us towards the main entrance.
The doors are opened for us and a huge staircase stand in front of us as well as a line of maids and other employees who I assumed worked here.
"Everyone I present to you Jane, my fiancé and soon to be wife. You are to be at her service at all times, and treat her with the same respect you treat me." Adrian states before we start walking down the line. "Jane I present to you Rosalinda the house keeper, Fernando the cook, Erick the gardener, and finally Julia, Miranda, Cassy, Julia, Ashley, and Nicole the maids."
"Welcome Ms. Hamilton." They all state in unison.
"Hello." I respond.
"Now let's start your tour." Adrian states before leading us towards the kitchen.
It was neat and spotless, everything look fancy yet pretty. It was pretty and if I were a cooking fan I would surely want one of these kitchens. We then arrived at the library.
"I don't really like to read but if you do you, you can come here and read." Adrian states.
The library was not so big but not so small but it looked elegant. Many books filled the room as well as the smell of paper.
"I prefer painting better." I respond and Adrian seems surprised. "What?"
"Nothing." He respond before leading us towards the garden.
It was had various bright colored flowers and it look beautiful.
"It's very pretty." I state.
"Yeah, Erick takes good care of it." Adrian responds. "Anyway let me show you to the last room."
Adrian and I walked back inside and up the staircase. We walked down the right hall and stopped at the third door.
"This is going to be your room, that is unless you'd prefer to share a room with me?" He asks his eyes turning a shade darker.
"Nope, I don't want to share a bedroom with a grumpy pants like you." I respond.
"Well this concluded the tour, I have a meeting to attend right now but Mrs. Fernandez will be at your service." Adrian states as he looks at his clock.
"Alright bye." I reply.
I looked around my room, it was enormous. Probably twice the size of my old bedroom. The walls were planted beige and there was a balcony. Once of the doors led to a walk in closet and the other to an elegant bathroom. Everything looked so fancy and expensive I was scared that if I touched it it would break. I had back to the bedroom and lay down on the sofa chair. I was able to look out the window and see the bright blue sky.
Huh, staring here for a year might not be so bad after all.
