Evelyn's mood was fluctuating, her food was left untouched and all rational thoughts forgone. She was already half asleep when her door opened with a loud bang, the effect making the whole place rumble. Evelyn's eyes snapped opened in annoyance and her cool gaze met with Ryan and Tyler. Tyler's eyes fluttered as his eyes met eyes. How had he not noticed she was this dazzling, especially her deep blue eyes and that lustrous white hair. Her skin was pale but beautiful, she didn't glow, she just shines brightly under the sun seeping through the curtain. Her skin was flawless without pores and she was beautiful at all angles no matter how you look at her, but her gaze now held his heart captive. "Don't tell me you barged in to shamelessly stare at me?"her mocking voice snapped them out of their wild thoughts especially Tyler who felt embarrassed about having such improper thoughts. "Come home with me peacefully or I'll drag you back with force whether you like it or not" Ryan threatened and she let out a small laugh. "Don't you see I'm a patient? Do you want me to shout for security?"she said and that was when they noticed the oxygen tank and life support machine beside her bed. They were too agitated to notice and besides she wasn't using it now. "What trouble did you get yourself into now?" Ryan asked sarcastically and she scoffed in disbelief. "I saved an arrogant and ungrateful bastard"she muttered under her breath but Tyler heard her and said mockingly. "You risked your life for a man?, Ridiculous !"he mocked her but she couldn't care less. Logan's humiliation was far worse and hit her like a ton of bricks. "Are you done?, can you leave now?"she asked impatiently. Ryan's breath became heavy but he then calmed down like he thought of something that had earned him a lot of money. He brought out some papers and 'MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE ' was written in bold letters as the heading and her face changed drastically. "Sign it" Ryan said tossing a pen at her as anger flashed in her eyes after reading the contents that made her sick to the gut. It was a marriage contract between her and Tyler. He would pay her parents 20 million dollars, give her a pocket money of 500,000 dollars, she is to maintain the image of the perfect Young Madam of the Robinson Family, she is not to interfere in his affairs with anyone giving him freedom to fool around while she is to maintain her image and not do anything disgraceful. The hypocrisy of this bastard!. "And what makes you think I'll sign it?"she asked gazing at them with a bewildered expression. "The company is not doing well we need the money" Ryan said trying to appeal to her better human nature and invoke pity from her but she doesn't have any of the two. "That's where your eldest daughter comes in Mr Stone"she said with a smile but he shook his head. "Your mother signed a legal contract that you must be engaged to him until three out of the four parties involved which is me(since her mother is dead), you, Tyler and his mother agree to break the engagement" Ryan explained and her eyebrows twitched in annoyance. What type of idiotic deal was that? "So in short, I only need either you or his mom on our side because i can bet on my heart that he too doesn't want it. I won't sign it, you can't make me"she said firmly and Ryan's face darkened. "I am your father and I know what's good for you. I say you should sign it so do so without delay"he scolded but she smirked. "Sperm donor stop making me laugh and reopen my wound"she said chuckling loudly almost choking on her laughter. Ryan's face turned ugly at that and Tyler barely contained his laughter. Her laughter was contagious. "I've not finished nor started college fully, so I'm not financially independent and cannot get married"she said pointing to them in a business like tone. "It sates that I,must be financially independent to take care of my affairs without ultimate dependence as a way of upholding a good image. So your request is invalid and has been outrightly rejected" she said like she was handling a business proposal without mercy. "And please don't try to negotiate with me by saying I'll be his fiancée till I can be financially independent. Because it also says infidelity before or after marriage will not be condoned and a sum of 10 million dollars will be given for compensation if the engagement is to go on"she pointed out and Ryan shook. 'How did she know? Has she seen it earlier?. She shouldn't have known about the terms and conditions he deliberately did not add to the second copy of the document he brought'he thought inwardly trying to salvage the situation. "And lastly, it states that if the token of engagement is no more, then the marriage cannot continue until a new agreement is made and signed by all parties. And look at me carefully, I'll never pen down my signature. If you think you can forge my signature do ahead, I'll sue you for impersonation. You'll spend a great deal of time in jail and that's a promise" she said in a wicked tone that made them scared. "You wanted to deceive me and not include important parts of the document. Do this again, and you'll see me in court. Get out I'm done talking to you all"she said lying down to sleep. "Evelyn you cannot just ignore this" Ryan insisted unwilling to lose the 20 million dollars. "If you stay here I'll shout, and if you continue the engagement behind my back, then I'll drop my account balance for my compensation and then see you in court. Please get out I'm a patient"she said and they left unwillingly. 'Marriage contract?, Ridiculous 'she thought as she closed her eyes to sleep successfully pushing Logan behind her head.
