…

but don’t worry about me if I leave now I won’t be late.

Grandma Lydia studied.

Nancy carefully there was something about this girl her selflessness her warmth.

Grandma Lydia smiled to herself she really is different from most people are you sure you won’t be late waiting for another bus.

Grandma Lydia asked again worry lining her face.

Nancy grinned I promise grandma besides if I get too rich and successful I might forget the little people so being a little late isn’t such a bad thing.

Grandma Lydia chuckled at her playful spirit.

but then she grew serious.

Nancy you are a rare kind of woman a man would be very lucky to have you.

Nancy laughed lightly oh no.

Grandma don’t tell me you’re trying to set me up with your grandson again.

Grandma Lydia smirked well maybe I am.

Nancy rolled her eyes playfully I think I’ll pass for now I barely have time for myself.

Grandma Lydia sighed.

but didn’t push further at least give me your number if I ever need help I know you’ll be there.

Nancy brought out a small notebook tore a piece and quickly wrote her phone number of course.

Grandma call me anytime she gently placed the paper in.

Grandma Lydia’s hands waved one last time and then turned rushing off towards the bus stop just as.

Nancy disappeared into the crowd a sleek black Rolls-Royce pulled up at the edge of the market the market people whispered staring in disbelief at the old woman they all shunned close to the luxury car the back door swung open and a tall handsome man stepped out he wore a tailored black suit his posture straight his presence commanding his sharp jawline piercing eyes and neatly styled dark hair made heads turn as he walked toward.

Grandma Lydia and gently helped her get into the car he is none other than.

Benjamin Lewis the CEO of Lewis group he was one of the richest and most powerful men in the city.

but despite his wealth he rarely smiled and his eyes were always filled with a cold determination.

Grandma he said firmly his voice smooth.

but laced with concern how many times have I told you not to go out alone without the guards.

Grandma Lydia sighed dramatically waving him off oh.

Benjamin I was just taking a little walk I needed some air he frowned deeply in this place with all the risks what if something happened to you.

Grandma Lydia patted his hand reassuringly well I am fine I didn’t even realize when my wallet got snatched Benjamin’s jaw clenched what you were out here all alone without money she waved it off as nothing don’t get angry my boy a kind young lady stepped in and helped me Benjamin’s eyes softened slightly who a kind-hearted young woman she was rushing for an interview.

but still took the time to help me she even used her last money to get me a cab after she paid for my fruits Benjamin’s expression remained unreadable.

but something in his eyes shifted as if he was trying to understand why someone would do such a thing.

Grandma Lydia studied him closely before adding you should meet her.

Benjamin she would make a good wife for you Benjamin’s expression turned turned cold instantly not this again grandma grandma Lydia folded her arms yes this again I told you he said firmly I will only marry.

Rachel.

Grandma Lydia sighed frustrated.

Benjamin.

Rachel Williams has been missing for 15 years the Johnson family has tried everything to find her you have searched for years and every clue leads to a dead end Benjamin’s eyes darkened his voice low and serious I haven’t given up my search I will find.

Rachel.

Grandma Lydia shook her head placing a gentle hand on his my boy I know how much you loved.

Rachel.

but what if she’s not coming back what if Fate has something else in store for you.

Benjamin looked away his heart heavy I made a promise.

Grandma he said softly she saved your life she was my very close friend When We Were Young she is the only woman I will marry.

Grandma Lydia sighed.

but didn’t argue anymore instead she took out the small piece of paper.

Nancy had written on and held it up well she said with a teasing glint in her eye at least take this.

Benjamin glanced at the scribbled phone number.

but didn’t take it.

Grandma Lydia smiled fine I’ll keep it for now he said nothing staring out at the busy street as the driver quietly drove them back to their mansion later that day.

Benjamin Lewis sat in his large glass-walled office at the Lewis group headquarters staring blankly at the latest contract on his desk his head achd across from him Sat his company’s board of directors his uncle Mr.

Harold Lewis and a few senior business partners.

Benjamin his uncle said leaning forward his voice firm.

but fatherly you’re one of the most powerful CEOs in this city.

but do you know what people see.

Benjamin barely lifted his eyes from the contract a businessman Harold sighed no they see a young man without a stable Family Life investors like stability they want to know the company will be secure in the future.

Benjamin knew where this was going Mary.

Benjamin one of the senior Partners chimed in it will strengthen your reputation stabilize the company’s image and assure our investors that Lewis group has a long strong future Benjamin’s jaw tightened this wasn’t the first time they had this conversation and then there was.

Grandma Lydia she had raised him after his parents died she had been his Rock his only real family left he would do anything for her.

but now even she wanted him to settle down meet.

Nancy she had said earlier.

although she was a stranger she barely knew he sighed rubbing his head I will marry when I’m ready he finally said and only the woman I choose Harold exchanged a look with the others before speaking again the meeting ended.

but the weight of expectation still pressed down on his shoulders meanwhile.

Nancy sat on a bench at the bus stop staring down at the rejection email on her phone she had missed the interview her one chance at a better job at escaping the struggles of her home life gone her throat tightened she wanted to cry.

but she didn’t regret stopping to help.

Grandma Lydia she leted out a deep breath wiped her wet eyes and forced herself to stand up I’ll find something else she whispered to herself I always do.

but as she walked home a dark feeling settled in her chest.

Nancy stepped through the front door of the small rundown house her heart sinking the moment she heard her mother’s sharp voice Where Have You Been.

Nancy barely had time to answer before her mother Cynthia stormed toward her eyes blazing did you bring money Cynthia demanded arms crossed tightly.

Nancy sighed already exhausted mom I told you I had an interview today I didn’t get the job her mother’s face Twisted in anger so you spent the whole day doing nothing and you didn’t bring anything home what kind of daughter are you you can’t even support your own family nany’s stomach turned I’m trying mom I really am.

but you don’t even work and.

Andrew just wastes money gambling a loud crash interrupted her words her brother.

Andrew had kicked a chair over glaring at her watch your mouth.

Nancy he spat.

Nancy turned on him no you watch your life.

Andrew you don’t work you just sit around and gamble while Mom defends you do you even care that we can barely afford to eat her mother grabbed ny’s wrist her grip tight and painful you ungrateful girl she hissed do you know how much your brother is suffering do you know how much debt he’s in.

Nancy ripped her arm away that’s not my fault I shouldn’t have to fix andrewk mistakes her mother smirked coldly well you can she said I’ve already found a way nany’s heart stopped what do you mean her mother smiled sweetly the kind of smile that always meant something bad Mr.

Benson she said simply.

Nancy froze her stomach Twisted in horror Mr.

Benson was old very old old he owned a few houses around the area and he owned a small supermarket close to their home he wasn’t very rich.

but Rich enough to settle her brother’s gambling debts he had always eyed her like a prize whenever he came to their house no.

Nancy whispered her mother’s smile widened yes he’s willing to pay a very generous amount to marry you enough to clear all of Andrews gambling dead.

Nancy took a step backou selling me she whispered in disbelief her mother’s expression turned hard I’m saving this family ny’s hands shook with rage you’re not saving anyone you’re just letting.

Andrew ruin himself while I pay the price her mother’s palm struck her face so fast she barely saw it coming a sharp slap echoed in the room.

Nancy stumbled her cheek burning her eyes stinging with tears enough Cynthia said coldly you’re doing this now ncy whether you like it or not.

Nancy touched her stinging cheek her entire body trembling something inside her broke without another word she turned and ran out of the house ignoring her mother’s shouts behind her she ran blindly through the streets her breath coming in short gasps as she fought back her tears her cheeks still burned from her mother’s slap.

but that wasn’t the worst part the worst part was knowing that no matter how hard she worked no matter how much she sacrificed it was never enough for her family she thought of her father the only person who had ever truly loved her before he died he had always stood up for her he had shielded her from her mother’s harsh words and Andrew’s selfishness.

but after his passing everything had changed.

Nancy had become the housekeeper the provider and the family’s only source of income even though she was only 2 years older than.

Andrew and what had she gotten in return nothing.

but insults demands and now betrayal lost in thought her phone suddenly rang.

Nancy startled quickly wiping her tears before pulling out her phone unknown number she hesitated for a moment then answered hello a warm familiar voice spoke.

Nancy my dear it’s.

Grandma Lydia nany’s face softened instantly.

Grandma hope you got home safe yes my dear Grand Lydia replied I wanted to check on you I hope I’m not calling too late.

Nancy glanced around she had no idea where she was she had been running aimlessly no it’s fine.

Grandma there was a pause on the other end of the line then.

Grandma Lydia’s voice became gentle.

but firm come and see me.

Nancy I’ll send you my address.

Nancy blinked in Surprise right now yes dear.

Grandma Lydia said if it’s not inconvenient.

Nancy hesitated.

but when her mother’s cruel words replayed in her mind she quickly agreed I’ll be there she said within seconds she received a message with the address.

Nancy typed it into her Maps app expecting an average location.

but when she saw where it led her eyes widened she stepped out of the cab her jaw dropping as she took in the scene before her the grand estate stood majestically under the night sky illuminated by Golden Lights the massive iron gates adorned with intricate designs slowly opened as the guards nodded at her politely she hesitated are you sure this is the right place she asked the driver her voice filled with disbelief the driver chuckled that’s the address you gave me Miss looks like someone you know is really rich.

Nancy gulped stepping forward cautiously the driveway stretched for what felt like miles lined with perfectly trimmed Hedges and luxury cars parked neatly outside she clutched her bag tightly suddenly feeling out of place before she could second guess herself the large oak doors swung open and.

Grandma Lydia stepped out smiling warmly.

Nancy my dear you’re here she said happily.

Nancy slowly walked forward her gaze still scanning The Unbelievable luxury around her grandma this is your house.

Grandma Lydia chuckled yes dear I live here with my grandson ny’s eyes widened further come inside.

Grandma Lydia urged leading her through the doors.

Nancy stepped in and immediately felt overwhelmed the grand chandelier in the center of the ceiling sparkled like diamonds the marble floors Shone so brightly she could see her reflection the expensive furniture gold accents and elegant Decor made it look like something out of a movie.

Nancy exhaled slowly she had never been inside a a house this Grand in her entire life I I don’t know what to say she admitted this place is breathtaking.

Grandma Lydia laughed it’s just a house dear what matters is the people inside.

Nancy turned to her you said you live here with your grandson grandma Lydia nodded yes.

but he isn’t home from work yet.

Nancy felt curiosity spark inside her who exactly was her grandson.

Grandma Lydia LED.

Nancy to a cozy sitting area far from the intimidating luxury of the main hall this is my favorite spot.

Grandma Lydia said sitting comfortably it’s quiet and peaceful.

Nancy relaxed a little as a housekeeper brought in tea and biscuits as they sipped their tea.

Grandma Lydia asked about her interview.

Nancy sighed I missed it.

Grandma Lydia frowned oh dear I’m so sorry which company was it Louis group.

Nancy said stirring her tea absently.

Grandma Lydia’s eyes twinkled with Amusement.

but she said nothing for a moment.

Nancy didn’t notice I guess it wasn’t meant to be.

Grandma Lydia smiled knowingly you never know my dear sometimes fate works in mysterious ways.

Nancy sighed and leaned back feeling a little better she had expected to feel worse.

but something about.

Grandma Lydia’s presence was comforting why don’t you stay the night.

Grandma Lydia said suggested suddenly.

Nancy blinked in Surprise what no I it’s already late.

Grandma Lydia pointed out.

Nancy stiffened I stay.

Grandma Lydia insisted gently it’s just for one night I’ll have a guest room prepared.

Nancy hesitated.

but deep down she didn’t want to go home okay she finally said with a small smile I’ll stay.

Grandma Lydia patted her hand good.

Nancy exhaled letting herself relax for the first time in days.

meanwhile a sleek black car pulled into the driveway the driver stepped out first then opened the passenger door.

Benjamin Lewis stepped out removing his suit jacket and rolling his sleeves up he was tired.

but the moment he saw his grandmother’s favorite sitting area lit up from the inside he frowned Grandma’s still awake he murmured he had no idea that inside the Mansion the woman his grandmother had told him about the woman she wanted him to meet was already there sleeping just a few doors away from his own room.

Nancy stretched sleepily feeling the softness of the bed beneath her for a moment she forgot where she was then as she opened her eyes and saw the elegant bedroom memories from the night before flooded back she was in.

Grandma Lydia’s Mansion she sat up quickly glancing at the clock it was morning already she had never slept this peacefully before there was a soft knock on the door before a maid entered good morning Miss.

Nancy the maid said with a warm smile Madame Lydia asks that you join her for breakfast in the dining hall.

Nancy nodded quickly getting out of bed she freshened up and changed into the simple clothes she had brought along as she made her way downstairs she took a deep breath still unable to believe she was here she entered the Grand Dining Hall where.

Grandma Lydia sat gracefully at the head of the table.

but she wasn’t alone sitting beside her was a tall handsome man dressed in a white designer shirt his sharp jawline neatly styled hair and deep set eyes gave him an air of authority and power.

Nancy froze in shock she knew that face.

Benjamin Lewis the CEO of Lewis group her heartbeat quickened he’s.

Grandma Lydia’s grandson.

Benjamin looked up at her his face unreadable.

Grandma Lydia beamed.

Nancy come sit Dear.

Nancy slowly walked over trying to calm herself.

Grandma Lydia gestured between them.

Benjamin this is.

Nancy the kind young woman I told you about Benjamin’s expression didn’t change he simply nodded I remember.

Nancy nervous under his intense gaze quickly said it’s nice to finally meet you.

Benjamin nodded again.

but remained silent then.

Grandma Lydia spoke again.

Benjamin dear she said sweetly.

Nancy needs a job nany’s eyes widened grandma she missed her interview at your company.

because she was helping me grandma Lydia continued you should give her a job.

Nancy turned bright red.

Grandma really you don’t have to.

Benjamin finally spoke his voice smooth yet commanding what are your qualifications.

Nancy swallowed hard suddenly feeling like she was in an actual interview I I have a degree in Business Administration she said quickly I also have experience in marketing and project management.

Benjamin studied her his sharp eyes assessing her carefully after a few seconds he finally said impressive.

Nancy blinked in Surprise then he turned to his grandmother she can start tomorrow he said simply ny’s mouth fell open just like that thank you she said quickly still processing everything.

Benjamin simply nodded I’ll have the HR department prepare your contract.

Nancy couldn’t believe it after everything that had happened she suddenly had a new job at lwis group no less the following morning.

Nancy started her new job at Lewis group working as a marketing assistant in the company she was determined to prove herself and within a few days her supervisors were already impressed with her work.

but one thing bothered her though she worked for.

Benjamin he rarely spoke to her their interactions were cold and strictly professional it was clear to.

Nancy that he was a man who didn’t mix personal matters with work that was fine with her at least it was until.

Grandma Lydia dropped a bombshell one evening.

Nancy was having dinner with.

Grandma Lydia at the Mansion when the older woman suddenly smiled mysteriously.

Nancy dear she said I have an idea.

Nancy looked up curious ious what is it.

Grandma Lydia took a sip of her tea before saying casually you should marry Benjamin.

Nancy choked on her drink what grandma Lydia smirked I think you two would make a wonderful couple.

Nancy stared at her in disbelief.

Grandma I she shook her head quickly we barely know each other.

Benjamin doesn’t even I’m not asking you to fall in love overnight.

Grandma Lydia interrupted I’m asking you to help each other nany’s heart pounded what do you mean.

Grandma Lydia leaned forward tell me about your parents.

Nancy Nancy stiffened for a split second before forcing a small smile they passed away when I was younger.

Grandma Lydia’s face softened I’m sorry to hear that so you live alone.

Nancy nodded quickly yes I do she kept her voice steady.

but inside her heart was racing she she knew what her mother and.

Andrew were capable of if they knew about.

Benjamin and his grandmother’s wealth they would try to extort them immediately her mother would show up crying demanding money playing the victim.

Andrew would pretend to be desperate promising to change only to waste everything gambling again she refused to let that happen she had already seen the disapproval in Benjamin’s eyes the way he clearly didn’t trust her she didn’t want to prove him right so she kept the truth I see.

Grandma Lydia said gently that must be tough.

Nancy simply smiled I manage.

Grandma Lydia studied her for a moment before speaking again well I think you and.

Benjamin should get married nany’s breath hitched she had no way out she knows what her mother is capable of and Mr.

Benson wouldn’t stop until he had her grandma Lydia was right marrying.

Benjamin would protect her and if she was being honest a part of her was attracted to him she wasn’t sure if she could call it love especially knowing he didn’t feel the same way.

but there was something about him that made her heart race taking a deep breath she nodded slowly I’ll do it when.

Grandma Lydia told.

Benjamin her proposal he immediately refused marry her no way you know.

Rachel is the one for me he said coldly.

Grandma Lydia sighed.

Benjamin be reasonable this will give.

Nancy a family and help you.

Benjamin stiffened he knew she was right the board wouldn’t pressure him anymore investors would trust him more and most importantly he could use this as a temporal fix to stall for time after several minutes of silence he finally spoke I have conditions he said.

Grandma Lydia smiled of course no one can know he said firmly not at work not in public not even mys business partners.

Grandma Lydia blinked in Surprise why Benjamin’s jaw tightened.

but he didn’t answer.

because deep down he still believed he would find.

Rachel this marriage would be temporary just a shield to get his grandmother and business partners off his back and when he found.

Rachel he would anull the marriage with.

Nancy and marry her.
