Chapter 2: Chapter 2

Ysabella POV

I have a very busy schedule today and it's packed. I even forgot to take my lunchtime. I had two surgery in the morning and three in the afternoon.

After I did my last surgery of the day I felt drained. Right now all I want is to be with my bed and take a beautiful rest. That's all I need.

I packed my things and grab sandwiches in the cafeteria to make my lunch and dinner at the same time. I munch the sandwich while I am seated in the driver's seat.

I plan to sleep when I arrived home. After finishing the last bite of my sandwich. I began to drive my car to my house. I mean I still live together with my parents and sister. I only have one sister.

My dad remarried after two years my mom died. That makes my step sister and stepmother now. As far as I know, they just want my father's wealth and I promise I don't want to be part of it.

I am just happy that I can become a doctor. It's my dream to become one after I witness my mom die I swore to myself that I want to treat people who are sick. I will do my best to get them better. That's my ultimate goal as a doctor.

I park my car in the garage and I saw an unfamiliar black limousine. Maybe my dad has a visitor. Every time my dad has a meeting it only he and my stepmom and step sister present. Good thing I am not into that kind of thing which is good.

I went inside and the maid greets me. I slowly walked to my room. Excited to have my good night's sleep. I glance to my side since I heard our Butler talking to me.

"Miss, your father asked you to come to the study room. He wants you to be present there " he said.

"Ok!" And I began to walk and when I am in front of the study room. I knock on the door three times and I open it after I heard my dad's voice say "come in"

I went inside and I stood up looking at everyone. I saw my dad, my stepmom, and my step-sister, and I was shocked I saw my patient Mr. Luciano Martin and his wife Amanda Martin talking to my dad.

"Good evening dad, mom, and sis. Good evening Mr. and Mrs. Martin." I bow to them to show my respect.

Luciano Martin has been my patient. Recently I just perform a bypass surgery for his heart. He is a good man and I love them both. They are like my grandfather and grandmother.

"Sweetheart, it's nice to see you. You are really beautiful even you are tired" Mrs. Martin said.

"Thank you, Mrs. Martin. But I am kind of puzzled why you are here? " I asked them.

"Such an unpleasant child how come you asked them like that. " My dad slowly but I can still feel his anger to me.

Ever since he got remarry he is always mean to me. He never wants me anymore. I feel like a stranger in my own home.

"Oh don't say that! This child is the sweetest child we ever encountered. She works hard for me to get better and I don't know how to pay such a huge debt to her. " Mr. Martin said

"Mr. Martin it's my duty to do that. You don't have to say it that way. " I told him.

"Anyway, we are here, because I give your father a proposition to invest in his company. I heard it went bankrupt and I want to invest to save it." Mr. Martin said.

I look at my dad and I was kind of confused. The company goes bankrupt? How did it happen? I swear the company has been successful for how many years. How come??.

"Of course it is truly acceptable. I am looking forward to having business with you Mr. Martin." My dad said while smiling.

"We will invest in your company and we will not expect any in return. We will give you money as much as your company needed. But we one something in return or rather someone" Mrs. Martin said while looking at me.

"What do you mean Mrs. Martin?" my dad said

"I want your daughter to marry my grandson Archer Martin and be part of our family." Said Mr. Martin.

My stepmother and stepsister squeal and look like a child who has just been given a lollipop.

"Who doesn't want to marry Archer Martin. Of course, it will be an honor to Marry him. " Said my step-sister Lucy.

"When are we going to plan the wedding?" My stepmother said excitedly to our guest.

"It seems like we had a little misunderstanding here. When I said I want to marry my grandson to your daughter I only mean her" Mr. Martin said while pointing his finger at me.

I look shocked and I swear my eyes are as big as a flying saucer.

"Me?…..." I asked them while pointing to myself.

"Yes! You dear. I want you to be my granddaughter. I want you to marry my grandson." Mrs. Martin said.

"Is this some kind of a joke? I am sorry but I think I can't. I am busy with my work and I can't marry your grandson who is don't even know" I told them.

"What are you talking about? You don't know Archer Martin? Are you from planet Mars? That guy is handsome and like a Greek god." My step-sister Lucy told me.

"But I don't....."

"You are going to Marry his end of the discussion. You will not defy me." My dad said.

"But dad..."

Before I can finish my sentence I was cut off by my dad.

"No more buts!"

I turn to Mrs. and Mrs. martin.

"Why me? My sister here can marry your grandson. Please, Mr. and Mrs. Martin. I beg you to change your mind." I plead to them while holding both hands.

"I am sorry dear. But we can't. " Mrs. Martin said looking at me.

"I think it's the end of the discussion. Dear, please think about it. If you decide not to marry my grandson I will not invest in your father's company. It's up to you dear. We are now leaving. I hope you will decide for tomorrow. Please call me Mr. Cullen when you fully decide. I will be waiting till tomorrow."
