Cornelia's POV
I couldnât believe what had happened yesterday. Someone hit me and then blamed me. He asked me to pay for the scratches on his car! Today, I was going to face him. Jeremy, Tori's father, had offered me something. He said he would pay for the scratches so I would not have to trouble with that brat, but I refused his help. That person needed a life lesson. I was going to meet him in person, I would go to his office.
Actually, yesterday I wanted to look for a job. But Tori asked me to accompany her instead. She asked me to go to the shopping mall with her, at first I refused because I knew I would just become a burden for her. I knew I couldnât afford anything in that mall. We spent 3 hours at that mall and when we wanted to go back home, that accident happened. I was angry with myself too. How could I always this clumsy? How could I always be in trouble? I knew it was my fault. But he was at fault too.
It waz 11.25 A.M now. I started to prepare myself, I wore  jeans and a blouse. I put on a little bit of make up. I just needed 20 minutes for that. Tori had offered me a lift to the company with her car, I accepted it. She drove there for me and then I asked her to go back home. She didn't need to wait for me. We arrived there 12.10 P.M, It's good to be early. I didn't like to be late.
I started to enter the company's building, It was bigger than my old company. It was full of busy people, I asked the information part for Colton's office.
"Excuse me. Can you tell me what floor Mr.Steward's office is?"
"Do you have an appointment with him?"
"Nah... I wouldn't say it's an appointment. But yes, he asked me to meet him today."
"What's your name?"
"It's Cornelia."
"There is no Cornelia written here. Just leave." She was very impolite.
"Maybe you can search for Ms.Parker." I said.
"I said there is no Cornelia or Parker here! Just leave! I know you are just  one of those bitches who is trying to get into his pants" She took a slight look at my breasts. How dare she, who did she think she was too say something like that! I knew I had a big breasts, but that didn't mean I was a bitch. I had never slept with someone in my life! So I was still virgin!
"Just call him and tell him Cornelia Parker is here! And don't you dare to have that assumption! I'm not a bitch like you!"
"Ah. So you are Cornelia. Colton has told me about you." A voice came from my back, I looked at a man standing behind me. He wass tall, had blue eyes, and handsome. Every women would fall for him.
"Who are you?"
"Ah, Sorry. I forget to introduce myself. I'm Alexander. You can call me Alex, I'm Colton's best friend also this company's co-CEO."
I nodded in response. "So can you show me Mr.Steward's office?"
"Sure, It will be my pleasure." He seemed like a kind person. He had a gorgeous smile.
"Ah. Before I forget. Christy, you are fired! You can start packing your things now."
"Y..y..yes, S..sir" She shocked and began to cry but it seemed that, this man didn't care at all.
We took the elevator and go to the 38th floor, Alex told to me that this floor is exclusive for Colton. So basicly this floor was just for Colton. Alex's and the secretaries offices were in 37th floor.
We walked through a big door. The view was amazing here, Colton must really like this office. It was refreshing here, the view I mean. We stopped at a door. Alex just went inside without knocking the door and I followed him.
Suddenly I heard a voice. "Who said you can come in without knocking at the door?" Arrgghhh.. I knew that voice.
"What makes Alex and I different? We are human. And Alex brought me here"
"You are a guest. Alex is my best friend. And no, you are different. You are evil." He saw Alex grinning. "More evil than Alex I mean." He said which made Alex face change. And then Alex whacked his best friend's head. "Retry it! I want you knock the door before come in."
With that I went out of his office, but instead of knocking the door I sat in a chair in front of his office. It was just 12.34 P.M. I need to meet him before 1 P.M right? If he wanted to play a game with me, Then I should play as well. I waited there and played with my phone. It's 12.57 P.M. I shall met him now.
I knocked the door and I heard "Come in." So I came in and walked to his desk.
"What took you so long? I just ask you to knock the door! Not clean the door. And what time is it? Youâre wasting my time!"
"What makes you think I cleaned the door. I just sat in front of your office, and it's still 12.58 P.M. It before 1 P.M right? So I'm not late and wasting your time." I smirked. Alex laughed loudly, He knew that I can play well.
"Okay. Just whatever. Sit there and let's talk." He sighed.
I sat in front of him, beside Alex. And then he started talking.
"So after I calculate it. You have to pay 5 million dollars for those scratches."
"What? 5 million dollars? I don't have that kinda  money! How could you expect me to pay that much!"
"As I said yesterday. I don't care about you! It's my beloved car. And you ruined it! You have to pay for it!"
"I refused to pay! You know, I have scratches too! And it's about my life! I can die!"
"But.." He was going to said something but Alex stopped him.
"Guys! Can you stop yelling? My head is hurting!"
We calmed down.
"Okay, thanks. I know both of your problems. Now let me help you to solve it." He took a deep breath.
"Cornelia, you don't have any money right?" Alex said.
I nodded in response.
"I'm sorry I did this to you. But yesterday when Colton told me about you. I got very excited because everybody knows him and his wealth, except you. So, I have done a background checking on you. You are unemployed right?"
I nodded again, It was unbelievable actually. Someone I didn't know had done a background check on me. But I thought it's not a problem anymore, It had already happened.
"Colton, you just have three days more right?"
He nodded. And his eyes wide opened. "Alex. No. No. You canât be thinking about it, are you?"
"Colton, it is the best for you and her. You can help each other."
"No! How can I make this girl become my girlfriend. I will be dead in just one day with her! I can't even deal with her!"
What? Girlfriend? Was I having hearing problems or something? "What? Girlfriend? What's that?"
"Both of you!! Calm down!!" Alex yelled again. We calmed down again.
"I will explain. Why don't you help each other? Colton, you just need to make Cornelia your fake girlfriend not your real girlfriend. And Cornelia, you don't need to pay for the scratches and Colton will pay you for your service as his fake girlfriend. You two just need to act, It's not that hard."
"No!" We both yelled at the same time.
"Come on! It will not last long. Colton just needs to prove that he has a girlfriend. Colton! You want the arranged marriage off right? Why don't you try this idea?"
"Okay. Maybe you are right." Colton sighed. "Cornelia, let's make a deal. You will be my fake girlfriend for 3 months. And I will pay you 30 million dollars for your service, how is that?"
I sighed, 30 million dollars? It was not everyday you will be offered 30 million dollars. He was handsome too. More handsome, taller and hotter than Alex. He had brown eyes which I liked the most, but I still had my dignity. "I refuse". And I began to walked away.
"If you refuse then you leave me no choice! I will report yesterday's accident to the police!" Colton said.
Alex ran after me. "Cornelia, please help my best friend. You don't want to suffer inside the jail right?"
Urghhhh!! I hated billionaires!! They always played the poor's life. I stopped. "Urggh!! Fine!! You leave me no choice! It's just for 3 months!"
Alex and Colton sighed happily.
"But I have a condition. No sex between us! Is it deal?" I said.
"Deal!" Colton agreed.
