Chapter 14 The arranged marriage
CHICAGO, UNITED STATE OF AMERICA
IAN BRYANT MANSION
Mr Griffin rushed into the kitchen after a maid informed him that Ian instructed her to leave the chores. “What’s going on, sir Ian?”
Ian heard Mr Griffin’s voice behind him in the kitchen. “Nothing.” He mumbled and concentrated on the dishes he was washing in the sink.
“Really? But you only offer to wash the dishes whenever you are worried or in a bad mood.” Mr Griffin said.
Ian rinsed the plates and removed the red rubber gloves from his hands. Mr Griffin was right. Ian only does the washing of plates anytime he is worried or bothered about something.
“Sir Ian, please tell me whatever is wrong.” Mr Griffin requested.
“Can you stop addressing me formally? It is pissing me off, Mr Griffin.” Ian fumed.
“Okay, I’ll stop addressing you formally if you can also call me by my first name.” Mr Griffin replied.
Ian shook his head in disagreement. “No, I can’t do it.”
Mr Griffin flashed him a small smile. “We should talk.” He said.
They settled on the stools close to the kitchen island. “Do I look all that worried? I mean.. is it so obvious?” Ian muttered.
“Yes. It is always obvious that something is bothering you whenever you do the dishes. Look you haven’t been home for two days and then you show up and start washing dishes without even changing your office outfit.” Mr Griffin did the tsk tsk sound.
“Well you are right. I am so mad and worried at the same time.” Ian admitted.
“Tell me everything, I am here to listen to you.” Mr Griffin said calmly.
Ian heaved a sigh. “Lorna came to the office today and she beat up Grace.”
“What?! Do you mean that she pulled out Grace’s hair?” Mr Griffin asked with a wide eye.
“No not like that. She hit Grace on her face.” Ian demonstrated it.
“Oh! Wow! Miss Lorna is a violent woman. She never thinks twice before hitting anyone. She doesn’t care about her reputation as a star.” Mr Griffin pointed out with a frown on his face.
“Exactly my point! Lorna always seems to forget that she is a big star. Do you want to know the worse part of it all?”
Mr Griffin shook his head. “She accused me of having an affair with Grace.” Ian gritted.
“Why would she think like that?! Where did she get such rumor?!” Mr Griffin demanded.
“I don’t know but I have a feeling she paid someone to spy on me. I am sure that person must have fed her with lies.” Ian answered.
“Why would she do that? I mean.. why would she pay someone to spy on you?” Mr Griffin shook his head in pity.
“I don’t know but I admitted to the false accusation and false rumor she heard.” Ian replied.
Mr Griffin stood up to get a bottle of water from the fridge. “Why? Take drink up.” He offered it to him
Ian took the bottle and gulped down half of the content. “It was intentional. Lorna won’t feel too important and if she believes she can just do anything around me.”
Mr Griffin sighed. “What did she say?”
“She called me a classless bastard and said Mason is better off than me. I know she only said that to make me jealous but I can never get jealous if Lorna loves Mason. I would even appreciate it if that happened. I don’t want this stupid arranged marriage.” He seethed his teeth.
“What are you going to do now? I am afraid of what her parents would do if they find out that you admitted to having an affair with a secretary.” Mr Griffin said.
“I am going to do nothing. I am not going to say anything to anyone if I get a call. Lorna can do whatever she wants but as long as she doesn’t beat up my workers or come to see me unannounced then I am okay. In the end, I won’t get married to her.” Ian sounded so determined.
“That settles it. I also don’t want you to get married to someone your parents picked for you. You have a right to make a decision that concerns your life. So let’s get passed this situation.” Mr Griffin flashed him a reassuring smile.
Ian shook his head in agreement. “You are right.” He heaved a sigh of relief.
“I’ll get you something to eat.” Mr Griffin motioned to the microwave to warm food.
They discussed randomly about work at the corporation and some minutes later, Ian settled to eat. “Do you remember that blind lady I met at the park two months ago?” Ian asked.
“Oh! The one that keeps coming to your mind.” Mr Griffin said.
“Yes, I found her.” Ian looked up with a bright smile on his face.
“Where did you find her?” Mr Griffin sat on the stool with keen interest in her eyes.
“I saw her at the hospital two days ago. She is so beautiful like I couldn’t keep my eyes off her and then I had to approach her. But I am a bit worried about that woman.” Ian scrunched up his face.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“I can read it all of your face that you are happy to see her again but why are you worried?” Mr Griffin questioned.
“I am worried because she trembled when I touched her. She became sweaty all of a sudden and the way she held her walk stick in a defensive stance was if she would hit me if I tried anything stupid like harassing her.” Ian explained to Mr Griffin how he met Ria again at the hospital.
“So what do you think about her? I mean what did you find?”
Ian wiped his mouth with a napkin. “She was scared of me. I didn’t miss that look. The fear of being touched by a man was so obvious in her expression.”
“But she has two children.” Mr Griffin muttered.
“Yes. Although I haven’t seen any man around her except a woman named Elise and the kids.” Ian replied.
“It might be that the father of her children treated her badly or maybe a man had once taken advantage of her condition.” Mr Griffin reasoned.
Ian raised his eyebrows. “Are you saying that Ria’s husband or someone might have physically violated her and left her with the kids?” He thought.
“Maybe it is any of these cases. I am just saying but we can’t be so sure of anything yet.” Mr Griffin replied with a shrug.
“I should make researches on her type of fear. It might possibly be a phobia.” Ian searched his pocket for his cellphone but he couldn’t find it.
“But why are you so interested in this blind lady?” Mr Griffin cleared the plates on the island and took them into the sink.
“Mr Griffin, to be honest I don’t know. I just find myself thinking about her. It seems like it is now impossible to get her out of my mind after seeing her again. And the fact that I have a little information about her, all I want to do is get closer to her and share all those pains I saw in her silver eyes. I just can’t tell why I am feeling this way.” Ian placed his palms over his face.
“What if she is married? Or a divorced woman? And remember she has two kids.” Mr Griffin said.
“Mr Griffin, I know but I can’t just help it. It is as if this blind lady has cast a spell on my well being.” Ian confessed.
Mr Griffin’s eyes watched the young man. “I understand you. But Sir Ian, I want you to think about it deeply.” He cleaned the island with a clean napkin.
“I am not sure I have to think anymore. Mr Griffin, can you help with something?” Ian requested.
Mr Griffin raised an eyebrow but shook his head. “Anything you want, sir Ian.” He flashed the young man a bright and encouraging smile.

IN SIMMONS MANSION
Lorna walked into the mansion with a deep frown on her face. “It is clear that Mason didn’t give you what you want baby.” She heard her mom’s voice when she started up the stairs.
“Because he is an asshole.” Lorna hissed.
“I have known Mason to always be an obedient boy. So I was sure he won’t give you what you desired with just a phone call.” Mrs Belle said.
Lorna stopped and walked to where her mother sat reading a book. She realized that her mom must have intimidated Mason. “What did you tell him?” She demanded.
“Oh! Mason didn’t tell you?” Mrs Belle dropped the book and removed her glasses.
“What did you tell Mason?” Lorna repeated.
“I just called him up and gave him a piece of advise.” Mrs Belle winked.
“I can’t believe you could that!” Lorna snapped.
“Well I did it. Anyways, I told him that you won’t enjoy whatever he gives to you because Ian’s name is boldly written on your mind. I am sure that you won’t call Mason’s name during the bang but Ian’s name so I did the poor boy a great favor.” Mrs Belle stood up from the couch.
“I didn’t think you would ever do this. Well.. maybe your point is partly true! I would have wished it was Ian hitting me right into my core with his hard cock! But you just made my thinking worse mom!” Lorna frown deepened.
“I did you no wrong baby. Ian should be blamed.” Mrs Belle laughed.
“Well you worsen it.” Lorna fumed.
“You should thank me for helping you score a goal in Mason’s life. I am actually glad the poor boy listened to me.” Mrs Belle pouted.
“Yes I should thank you!” Lorna clapped her hands. “And now he wants me to fall in love with him! Hurray! Mom won! Are you happy now?!” She hissed and walked off to her bedroom.
Lorna was so pissed because Mason didn’t satisfy her sexual needs and he left her with a burning desire. She slammed the bedroom door, threw her bag on the bed and fell back on it.
“I am still in the mood! Gosh! Mason is so fucked!” Lorna grumbled as she stood up from the bed again. Her gaze flickered on her slender fingers and she smiled.
“This pretty fingers can be of help to my body today.” She dipped a finger into her mouth and licked it seductively.
“And the toys.” Lorna rushed to the door and locked it.
She went in a search of the new bullet vibrator and a manual dildo stimulator of 175mm that she just ordered two weeks ago. She found the items in the bed side drawer. “Oh! I should try these out today.” She tore off the nylons on the sex toys.
Her hand flickered over the tip of the black color dildo before she dropped her tongue on it. “Hmm.. sweet.” She commented.
Lorna stripped out of her clothing and she sat on the bed with her head resting on the headboard. She closed her eyes when her fingers touched her core through the lace panties.
“So wet.. stupid Mason is gonna miss this pretty pink core of mine.” Lorna removed her panties to feel her wetness. Her hands traveled over her core using the wetness to coat every fold. “Feels good..” She was feeling the pleasure that built up within her.
She pushed a finger into her core and another finger rubbed her clit gently. “Oh.. fuck..” Two more finger and the third into her centre and she began to feel the pleasure intensifying.
“The toys.” She coated her saliva on the dildo before pushing it into her core. “Oh my goodness.” Lorna moaned lowly as she fucked herself with the dildo and vibrator to her clitoris.
She lay back deeper on the bed and her head sank into the pillow as tension welled up in her. She was enjoying the feeling of pleasuring herself. “This.. is.. crazy…” Lorna groaned as the dildo and vibrator fucked her to the edge until she hit climax.
