Deal or not?

"Seriously?" She looked at the old man, a frown forming on her face "This is why you called me here? To marry me off?"

"Its a good deal" The old man smiled. "I know you don't care about marriage anyway, that's why I found a good deal"

"Hah" Diana scoffed "No way! First thing tomorrow morning, I'll be out of this damn place!"

The old man shook his head, he already expected this, so he slid another document to her. She read through it this time without much change of her expression. 

"And... what does this have to do with me?"

"It has everything to do with you Diana. Jk corps are trying to bring down our company. Their influence is quite bigger than ours and this time, I'm afraid, they'll really succeed"

"First, it is your company not mine. Deal with it yourself. Why do I have to be included?" she gave him a puzzled look. She has never interfered in the company's business so why should she only be included in it now that it was going down the drain?

"Diana, your mother worked hard for this company to be in this state" The old man's voice grew soft, his expression turned sad as he continued "Her blood, sweat, sacrifice. Everything... "

"Just stop!" she yelled. He was using thesame emotional tricks again. He knew she'd do anything for her dead mother so he kept bringing her up whenever he needed her favour. Such shameless acts! He never changed even after all these years he was still thesame scheming old man. 

"I get your point" she lowered her voice, realizing she had yelled too loud earlier. He loved his company so much that he had refused to step down and give his position to any one of the younger generation. He didn't even think of choosing a heir, yet, and was still hugging the president seat. Now that there was suddenly a threat, it was only natural for him to panic.

 She leaned back on her seat to look at him, giving him a suspicious look then she picked up the papers and read through it again.

"What am I getting out of this?" She asked.

"It depends on what you want" The old man gave her a toothy grin seeing as she was becoming agreeable "Just name whatever you want and I will go even to the ends of earth to get it for you" he was feeling happy so he made this promise on a whim and couldn't help thinking he just made a trap for himself.

"Really?" As expected, the sly smile that appeared on her face made him want to retract his statement but what she said next was something he never expected.

"Then... I want the company" Diana crossed her legs and almost laughed at the way the old man's jaw dropped. His expression changed multiple times.

Was it that shocking? After all, he was the same person who said to her 'As long as you get what you want, then be shameless without limits'

"You... h-how can you be so greedy to even think of stealing the company away from me?"

"Do we have a deal or not?" 

After a long pause, the old man said "Fine" and passed some papers to her.

 This time, it was her turn to be shocked. 

Was he serious? She was only joking but he agreed just like that? 

Diana found it puzzling then she read the papers he gave to her and finally understood. All along it was her, he was planning to give the company to her but... why? Why did he choose her when her Dad was still alive?

"You already prepared the contract which means you were planning to give me the company from the beginning?"

"Mmm, I found you more suitable for that position"

Her lips curled, not bothering to hide her excitement. She gave him a big smile and spoke in a much gentle tone "Grandpa, you're so sweet. No wonder I kept thinking about you in Vegas. It was because I missed this old face"

"Just how shameless can you be?" The old man's expression contorted, seeing her weird smile. She should just be her normal self.

"I took after grandpa" She grinned. 

Right, she took after him indeed. 

The old man shook his head and signed the papers then passed it to her to sign. 

"Who is this person I'm going to marry?" she asked, realizing that she just signed a contract to marry someone she didn't even have an idea of his name. But she knew he must be someone powerful, someone who is able to contend with JK. Just who could it be? 

Deal Or Not?

"You'll find out once you meet him. Red restaurant, tomorrow, 7pm. You have a dinner date with him"

Diana nodded, in a good mood. How could she not be happy when she just inherited a company all to herself? Not just any company, one of the top ten biggest and powerful company in the world. Of course she would be ecstatic. When her grandfather said, this deal had a lot of interest, he didn't lie. The deal was indeed worth her trip here. 

She went back to her room, humming a song and started to prepare for the next day, thinking about the date with her future husband. 

"Hohoi, I'm getting married!" she typed on her phone and sent it out to her best friend, Mia. 

Diana laid in bed and stared up at the high ceiling. She couldn't sleep.

She wondered if her decision today was for the best. It was true that she didn't care about Marriage. Well, she did until five years ago when that asshole dumped her and her world crashed. She had never thought about getting married again. All she had put her focus on was making money. A lot of it, and growing her company, creating deadly poisons she could play with when she was bored.

Now, suddenly, she was about to be married. 

The thought alone was scary but she consoled her self with the thought of inheriting the company along with a husband.

Wait, what if he was an old man?

No way. Grandpa definitely wouldn't do that to her.

Maybe it would all work out. She would make sure of it.
