THE HEIR'S BEDMATE
Chapters. 5. Accept Edward's Offer

The ringing alarm in the morning woke Laura from her sleep. Last night he was able to close his eyes when the time showed at 01:30 p.m.

His hand reached for the phone to turn off the alarm. But his eyes widened when he saw a message on his phone screen.

‘Kak..

That's the message sent by his sister Leo, the baby boy his father first found. She is 5 years younger than Laura.

Laura immediately contacted Leo's contact number, in the third ring newly appointed. Maybe her sister just woke up.

"Hello brother?" The distinctive hoarse voice of waking up Leo was heard across there.

"Leo... What kind of sick mother deck ?" Laura asked worriedly.

"Mom passed out last night and her body had a fever".

"Leo. Give the phone to Aunt Lily". Laura's orders.

"Hello... Lala ?" Aunt Lily's voice was heard from across the phone.

"Hello bi.. what happened to mom, bi..?" Laura asked worriedly

"Mary fever seems to be thinking about this money problem, son".

"Ohhh..." Laura breathed her breath. He thought for a moment, he should not be selfish and selfish. There was his mother, aunt and younger siblings who depended on him.

"Son. are you still there?" Aunt Lily is back.

"Yes Bi, I'm still here. Auntie, please tell mom, don't worry about money, tomorrow I go home with that money. Take care of mom, I promise you I'll come home with the money". Laura said firmly

"Where did you get that kind of money in such a short time, son ? Don't tell me you..?" Aunt Lily asked suspiciously.

"Auntie doesn't have to worry, I get a new job, and my boss gives me a loan, as long as I'm willing to work with him, hemm, sort of be a personal assistant". Laura's Lie.

"really? Very kind of your boss. May God repay his kindness".

"Amiin" unknowingly Laura agreed with Aunt Lily's words. "Yes bi, I hung up first, I'll be ready to meet my new boss". Pamit Laura's

"Okay, son, be careful wherever you are".

The call ended. With a long breath. Laura got up from her bed and cleaned herself up. Yes, he had made up his mind, Edward that name was the only thing that came to his mind now.

*****

Laura arrived at the underground parking lot of the building she stopped by yesterday. Still sitting in his car, holding the business card that Edward gave, he was still weighing, calling or not. And in the end.

"Ha-hello sir, it's Laura". Laura's voice seemed to be stuck in her throat.

"Hello Ara's. There's something I can help you with". A masculine voice greeted with a gentle tone.

"My master, I'm in the parking lot in front of your apartment elevator". Laura's voice sounded weak.

"Stay right there, Jo's gonna pick you up".

The pelggilan was cut off. Shortly after, the elevator doors opened. Yes, the elevator is a special elevator to the penthouse unit owned by Edward, if you want to enter the elevator from the basement, must use a special access card, but if you want to enter the elevator from the upper floor to the basement, if you want to enter the elevator, can be without an access card.

"Good morning, miss". Greet Jo with a sweet smile.

"For Jo sir". Laura replied with an awkward smile

"Let's come, come with me". Jo stuck an access card in, the elevator opened and they got in.

It didn't take long, the elevator reached the 20th floor, the top floor of the building. The elevator door opened, revealing the door of the penthouse unit that was still wide open. Jo let Laura in.

Laura's steps seemed to slow down, she seemed to enter into a cage of sorts, cold sweat suddenly dripped, her hair bristling. Will his life end today? Inner Laura wondered.

"Good morning sir".

"Let's ladies, we'll sit down and have breakfast together". Johan.

"Thank you Jo sir, I had breakfast". Reject Laura while sitting on the chair Edward occupied.

"Tell me what can I do for Ara?". Edward pretends not to know the meaning of Laura's arrival.

"Sir, you must know what I mean here. I'm..." Laura paused her speech and sighed deeply, then continued her saying "I'm here to borrow money from you sir, I accept your offer". Laura spoke while bowed down, and hands gripped each other over her lap.

"Jo. take the money bring it here". Johan left the two of them to the second floor of the unit.

"So you agree ? Do you have any idea what conditions I'm asking you to pawn me?" Ask Edward.

"Yes I know. Master wants my body, right?" Laura is still down.

"Look at me Ara, I don't like talking to people who look down like that. I'm in front of you, not under you".

Laura held her head up, timidly looking at Edward.

"You're right Ara, I do want your body. I want you to be my bedmate". Edward spoke while leaning his body on the back of the chair and folding both hands in the chest.

Gleck...

Laura gulped her saliva roughly. It was as if his throat was choking on a stone.

Not yet had Laura talk, Johan has come with a bag containing 300 million money. He's on the dinner table, at Edward and Laura's.

"This is your money Ara. Take this money to your home, save your brothers and sisters". Edward thrust the bag in front of Laura.

Laura's hand shook reaching for the bag. He pulled up the bag, and pulled his hand again.

"Why Ara? Take it, it's your money now".

"Master, I don't understand yet about the terms you've applied to me, can you explain them again".

"Surely Ara. I gave you this money loan, as collateral for your debt, I want your body as my bedmate. Tomorrow after your business with the loan shark is over, come here and bring your things. You should stay here". Obviously Edward was loud. "Joe...."

"It's mister". Jo thrusts a small purse toward Edward.

Edward opened it and gave up the wallet to Laura. "Ara, this is a special access card for you to enter the elevator". Ed handed me a black card. "This is the penthouse's main entrance card". Second card in silver. "And here, you use it for your pocket money, pay for your college, or whatever". The third card is a black unlimited credit card.

Laura refused the last card. "Sir, don't give me any more money, I owe you a lot, I don't want to owe you any more".

Edward returned the card. "This is not Ara's loan, but I gave you for free. And remember Ara, I don't want to hear rejection". Edward's eyes shot out toward Laura.

Shakingly Laura received the three cards and kept them in her bag. Edward is seen typing something in his handpone.

Ting...

The incoming message was heard on Laura's handpone.

"That's your credit card pin Ara".
