As only when I thought I am having a peaceful morning sleep my alarm goes off. I grabbed my phone checked the time it was already 6. I jumped out my bed looked in the mirror and realised that I am looking complete mess. I hurried towards my bathroom got hot shower and got bathrobe headed to the dinning table. As on cue my steaming black coffee was ready with toast and eggs.As I took my seat at the center of table and start sipping the coffee and going through the details and looking at my daily planner I grabbed the economic Times and looked for the stock prices and share market . Going through everything as my servants cleared the table. I got up got dressed I wore black shirt and grey suit and silken blue tie and put my dark brown hairs on the place applied my cologne. As I headed to my car I slipped in backseat looking my mails and files.

As I entered my office June greeted me,“good morning Mr.Harrington we will having meeting with Knights and Co. in 15 min.after that we will be taking new investors and after that you have the lunch with our clients and after that we will be taking few meetings of marketing and management teams" June finished looking at me for my approval I nodded and said “June let me know about the meeting of the teams, thankyou" as I reached for elevator. The doors closed I pressed the button for 35 th floor to getting in my office. As I entered my office I sat on my chair looking at files and going through every details as soon as June knocks at the door informing for the meeting. As I nod towards June leaves I took files and head towards the conference room.

It is the biggest deal to crack I have prepared from very long for this. As I enter the room I greet everyone and shake hands with Mr. David knight owner and CEO of knights and company. As I took the seat I found two women sitting on either side of Mr. knight as I present all the details as I prepared and the meeting ends Mr. knight walk towards me giving a wide smile and he speaks “mr. Harrington I am glad to say that I am looking forward with your partnership for this deal”as I gratefully smile at him as both women from before enter at the room as Mr. knight introduced me to them “mr.harrington meet my daughters meghan and Silvia" they both smile at me after giving a brief handshake as I and Mr knight leave together discussing the business plan followed by meghan, Silvia and June behind . as I reach my office doors Mr knight leaves for elevator June heads to her way as I turn towards the doors of my office I feel gentle tap on my arm as I turn to see there is meghan and Silvia standing infront of me.

As I look at them meghan speaks “can we talk to you in your office Mr Harrington ,please?" as I look at them and hold the door for them to enter as I took my seat as asked “how may I help you miss.knight ” Silvia looks at me and says “we were amazed by your skills Mr Harrington you are amazing " as I thank her she speaks again “Mr Harrington if you can help us ?" as I look at them curiously and grab the phone and ask “ June could you please send some refreshments and black coffee for me" and ask “how can I help you miss. knight ?" as Silvia looks towards meghan she gives her a little nod as Silvia was about to speak again there is knock on the door as someone enters with the snacks and leaves as I take sip of black coffee Silvia speaks “Mr Harrington can you marry meghan ?" as this words escape her mouth I almost spill my coffee as I cough and look towards meghan she seems to notice. says “Mr Harrington this will be fake marriage between us but for our families and world it will be real" I was searching both of their faces for more information as Silvia speaks,“I know this sounds insane but our father want us to take over the business and only the person who finds the husband worthy of our name and fortune will take over the other one will be not given anything just a grain of our entire inheritance,meghan loves the man who is team leader at our own company " as I look at her and say,“oh miss.knight that is very good for you I mean you will be the heir of your empire" and give her a grin she seems sad as she again opens her mouth “why can't you understand I cannot leave my sister like that she mean more to me than this estate and I am in love with the French business tycoon Leo walker, my father knows about that so after my sister's wedding I would be in-charge of the France headquarters and she can take over this one ” as I look at both of them and say “miss. knight I get that but what is in for me why should I get married to you ?" as Meghan speaks,“your reputation in public is not good and so that is the reason for most stock fall and your dad doesn't says much good about you, you can use this marriage for stability of your business" as I listened to her I asked,“can you give me some time miss knight to inform you?" as they replied in positive and left my office I finished my whole day work attending meetings and signing a tons of papers.sometimes I don't even understand what is use of this papers man really!as I was about to leave I called June “hey June can you come to my place I need your help?" she agreed to come.

as I entered June was already sitting on my couch as she looked at me raising her eyebrows,“what happened Morris ?you sounded so confused" as I took sit opposite her and explained June every single thing her facial expressions were changing faster than chameleon changing colours at last her mouth was completely shaped like o. she looked at me her eyes shining as bright like diamond and she was literally jumping on the couch.

June was my bestfriend from the college she knows every single thing about me, we never showed this at my office but outside of the office June is same as every single bestfriend setting me up with every girl she finds great and doing some boring stuff.June looks at me and says,“you know what Morris they are right we have been looking a girl from long time to set you up so your father can officially make you CEO and also it would great media coverage it is boon for you, you need this come on say yes to her" as June looks at me I give her a small smile and said,“okay June I will inform her, thanks for listening me".she hugs me and leaves.

As I woke up my phone was buzzing with notifications I checked it up it was the calendar notification for June's birthday.

I want to suprise her I headed to breakfast table doing same old routine which I was following from 8 years.As I was eating my phone goes on I looked at the number it was unknown I picked up the phone to my ears as a very soft voice comes from the other end “good morning Mr Harrington it's me meghan knight could I get to know about your decision by any chance?" I thought for sometime and answered “miss knight only if you do me a favor ?" she answered me,“sure what is it?" I told her,“meet me at 12 we will have the brunch and I will let you know there" she agreed and hang up the call.

I got ready in my navy blue t-shirt and a pair of black jeans done my hair as I was looking in mirror at myself.I noticed how much my face has changed my eyes are same like my mom but we don't see the same things my eyes are blue as everyone says but it is never blue it was blue with flakes of grey I was always different from my parents but nobody seemed to care. I have what we say a perfect face a perfect body every thing in me was perfect but I am imperfect I am broken with perfection.as I try to recollect myself with long breaths.head towards the location as I arrived I saw miss knight sitting on the table far side of the rooftop warm sun rays were creating golden aura around her face her eyes were green which was looking like emeralds In the sun.as I approached her gave her the bouquet of daffodils.she smiled at me as we seated she asked me,“how can I help you mr Harrington ?" I told her,“miss knight I need your help today is my friends birthday but I have no idea and any brain cell left to know anything about women fashion could you help me in picking her gift" as I looked at her she gave me a smile nods and took her phone excuse herself when she returns she almost hurriedly gather everything as I payed for the food she grabbed my hands and run I was running behind her when she stops panting I asked her between the breaths,“miss knight why are we running?"she says ,“oh Harrington we need to rush to the boutique so still we need to run one extra mile she again tighten her grips on my wrist as I speak between running,“miss knight I have a car we can use that "as I say that she stops immediately and I bumped into her she looked at me her face was with damp with sweat she speaks breathing “why don't you said it before " I looked at her,“because you were grabbing and running without speaking a word so" and then she leaves my wrist it suddenly feels empty as I call my driver the car arrives in few minutes I open the door for her she gets inside and I get seated she give the driver directions. her face was red with sweat her hair we disheveled and she dials the number on her phone. we arrived at boutique a young lady greets us she immediately recognised me and miss knight she leads us to the couch and ask some questions to me about June and then she heads inside I looked at miss knight and said,“miss.knight you can also buy a dress as a thankyou from me because you solved my biggest problem of the decade" she laughs at me and declines the offer I said,“please miss knight atleast let me do that much please" I gave her my best puppy dog eyes which no one can deny, she looks at me and says,“okay mr. Harrington I will take the dress as you say but on only one condition" I look at her confused she says,“you need to call me meghan not miss knight" I smiled at her and said,“okay miss knight umm..meghan" she laughs as the lady enters with few dress and asks,“which one do you like sir ?" I look at meghan,she looks at a rose coloured with golden mixed she selects the dress and I gave her nod as the lady packs the dress and as she collects the rest of dress there was one dress it was aqua green in colour it was beautiful as I stand up and take that dress from the lady as meghan was busy looking around the racks I asked her to pack that dress separately she smiles at me and leaves meghan returns to me looking exhausted as she says,“dresses are not that great you could buy me next time lets go" as we head to counter I ask meghan to wait in the car as I process the payment she agrees and leaves waiting for me in the car as I get both the dress the lady as me if I could like to have personalized note added I thought for time and agreed to her.
