He adds after a pause while checking something on the phone. “Although… I have been
told my voice is too similar to Noah.. that new singer… if you have ever heard about him.”
“Noah Miller?” I exclaim.
“Yup!” He says and out of the blue my phone rings on the car’s speaker.
We see the name on screen and he exclaims, “You know him?”
“Well, yeah…” I smile and answer the call.
And then I hear it. His smooth voice. “Hey Sophie, How are you doing?”
“Hey Noah. I am good. I am sorry… but you are on the car’s speaker and I cannot talk.
business right now.”
I answer him, realizing the hot jerk’s voice indeed is too similar to Noah’s.
“Oh No problem as long as your company is not a reporter.”
I look at Liam. uhmmm, I think I prefer to call him ‘Hot-Jerk’
I look at Hot Jerk and he says, “Hey Noah, big fan here… and No I’m not some
p7aparaz7zi.”
“Oh Wow. Thanks Man!” Noah says in surprise, not expecting the hot jerk to answer him. Noah adds. “Sophie, I heard you are in California. How long are you staying there?”
“Barely a few days. Why? If you have anything, Lena can attend to you.”
“No No.. I… wow ummm I am coming there… My brother lives there.. so I was planning to stay in California for a while and shoot some music videos around the beaches and one in Las Vegas too. So I was wondering if it would be possible for you guys to arrange these things, on such short notice?”
“Ooh,” I say, flabbergasted. “Yea sure. Let me talk to Lena and we will plan something.”
Looks like I will have to stay here for a while.

For some reason, I lose my ability to think around this girl. She almost recognized me. Liam wanted to go home sooner. Apparently, this is the honeymoon phase of his relationship with my ex secretary Emma and he is always on his toes to get back home.

When I saw Sophie leaving the party, I couldn’t resist the pull. When I sat next to her, she was eyeing my tie and jacket. I almost f7ucked up.
G7od bless Noah for saving me.
We stay quiet for the rest of the ride while I think to myself what she wanted to talk.
about?
I roll my eyes inwardly, thinking if I hadn’t taken this lift from her, maybe she would
have called me.
When I pull out my phone to text her, I see a message from her under the pile of multiple unread notifications.
How did I miss that?
My Buttercup: ‘Hey M, There is a chance that I might have to tell my family about the
wedding.’
My eyes widen, and I reply.
Me: ‘I don’t want to go public.”
It will be a mess. Mom will literally kill me. And the gossip it would create!
Of course, she knows I accessed the funds, but she doesn’t know how. She doesn’t
know what was written in my part of The Will as it was only acknowledged to me and nobody was allowed to read or access it. My grandfather was a genius. Even after death, hel
managed to keep the controversy away.
As we reach the traffic stop, she picks the phone to read and replies. But I don’t dare check it. She is already suspecting me. I don’t want to be so obvious. I have to be more

I smirk to myself. I am loving this game with her…
“So, are you planning to take this job?” she asks.
Why is she asking? Does she know somebody there?
“Not sure..”
“Are you married or something?”
“Are you looking for a boyfriend?” I smirk.
She rolls her eyes and answers. “Actually, I am looking for a husband.”
I raise my brow at her and she chuckles.
“A fake one.. if you are interested. I can pay you well.”
My lips twitch in amusement.
“And why do you think I am a suitable candidate?”
She glances me up and down. “You are good looking.”
“Glad you noticed.”
“and you lack morals.”
