Chapter 49
Summer Frost Pov
I stood in front of the entrance door, contemplating on whether or not I should go inside. Not that I had a choice, anyway. I mean, I was already here, so there was no point not going inside.
held the doorknob, twisted it slightly and pushed it open, but I paused when I walked inside the living room and found Hunter seated on the couch across from Dad. At that point, I need not be told why Dad summoned me. It was obviously because of my marriage with Hunter, Can someone tell this man that I’m not ready for marriage and even if I was, Hunter was the last man I’d give a marriage chance to?
“Sadly, no one can do that for you aside from you” My subconscious mind reminded me, and I exhaled sharply.
“Summer… You are here,” Hunter rose to his feet with a welcoming smile on his face like he was excited to see me. He must really be.
“Hmm, Why are you here?” Though I knew Dad invited him over, I still asked.
“I asked him to come over. It has been a while, Summer, How have you been?” Dad stood up and pulled me into his arms warmly.
“I’ve missed you so much,”
Of course, I missed him so much too, but happy to be here? Nah, I’m not.
“I missed you too, Daddy,” I forced a smile after he pulled away from me.
“You are not looking bad for someone who has been busy lately with series of surgeries,” He ran his eyes over my body briefly and commented.
“Thank y you, Dad. You don’t look bad yourself. How have you been?” I walked over to sit beside him on the couch
“I’ve been good, but the outcome of our discussion today will determine whether I’ll still be good,” He shrugged, and of course, I knew what he meant by
that. This was about Hunter and I.
“Have you eaten yet, Dad? Do you want me to make something for you?”
“That’s not why I invited you over. I know you must be busy with work, so let’s keep this brief and short,” He adjusted on the couch and looked at Hunter.
*So, have you chosen a date yet?” I was forced to looked at Hunter when Dad asked him that. Is there something I’m missing out on? Date of what?
“Uhm… Not yet, Sir, I was thinking we should discuss it with Summer first before-
“I told you I was going to handle things on Summer’s end. So, have you chosen a date yet?” Dad insisted, and Hunter looked at me with the ‘it’s not my fault expression.
“Uhm… Not yet, Sir. We can do that today.”
I was left in the dark. Even though I kind of knew what they were talking about, I tried to convince myself that it couldn’t be that, Dad won’t possibly have someone else choose a wedding date for me, right? A wedding that I’ve not given my consent to at that.
“What date are you two talking about, Dad? I’m left in the dark,”
“Oh, that… I wanted Hunter to choose the date for your engagement. I mean, it’s high time you two get engaged and maybe get married right away, right? It’s been years since you two knew each,other,” Dad shrugged casually as if those were no big deal.

“Dad
Wed
“I’m going to introduce you to the world as the new managing director of Miller’s corporation on the same day as your engagement, Isn’t that beautiful?” He looked at me with a proud smile, and I bit my lip.
“Dad, I think
“Since you two are not ready to choose the date, I will gladly do it for you. The company’s end of the year party is in three weeks. You should get ready to be engaged in two weeks,” He dropped the bombshell, and my jaw dropped to the ground as I looked at him. I desperately wanted to tell him that I wasn’t interested in that, I wanted to tell him that I had no feelings for Hunter and therefore will not get married to him, but realising that I had no place here since he only helped me, I just kept mute
“Is that fine by you?” He looked at me and I slowly nodded even though I didn’t want this. This man only helped me and brought me to where I am today. sol should do this for him, right?
“Yes, Dad,” I forced myself to reply to him, and he nodded.
“See? It’s sorted out. So, tell me, Hunter… Do you have anything to say about this?” He looked at Hunter and asked.
“No, Sit. I’m fine with all the arrangements,” The look on Hunter’s face was evident that he was excited about this. To him, maybe nothing else mattered to him other than getting married to me even though I felt nothing for him
“Then we have an engagement party to plan,”
“Yes, Sir,” Hunter nodded, while I just stared into space, the imagination of my whole life going into ruins kept popping up in my head.
don’t we drink to this, huh?” Dad suggested after he stood up.
“Come on, kids. Why don’t we
“I will go bring a bottle of wine to celebrate”
“Lthink I need to leave, Dad. I have something to attend to. Maybe we can do this some other time,” I quickly stood up
up and cut him off.
“Yes, Sir. Summer is busy, and even I have something to take care of. We can drink to this some other time,” Hunter chipped in as he stood up too.
“Alright,
then. Come over to the house some time later in the week and let’s have lunch or dinner together as a big family…” Dad paused then turned to me and smiled, “You should bring the kids too. I haven’t seen them in a while,”
“Yes, Dad. I will bring them,”
“Alright, kids. See you around,”
I breathed out as soon as I stepped out of the house. It felt like I just stepped out of a suffocating furnace.
I was heading to the parking lot when Hunter called my attention.
“Do you have time later in the week? Let’s have dinner together,” He stood in front of me and smiled.
“No, I don’t have time to spare,” I knew I was cold with my reply, but I wasn’t in the mood to talk to anyone, and of course, he was the least of the people! would want to talk to for any reason.
He held my hand when I tried to open my car door, and I exhaled deeply.
“What is it now, Hunter?” I snarled at him though keeping my voice within range because I didn’t want to make Dad come out here because of us.
“I’m sorry about what happened back there. I would’ve done something if…”

“Of course, you can. Of what benefit is it to you that you are going to get married to a woman who doesn’t give a s h t about you?”
“Summer-

“Why don’t you tell Dad that you are not interested in getting married to me? Why don’t you tell him that we are not compatible or something? You can tell him anything to make him change his mind. You are the only one who can do this, and you know it. We both know Dad won’t force you to go ahead with this whole s i t if you say no. So, why don’t you do it?” I rambled on.
“Summer, I can’t do that. I love you with everything in me, and I really want to spend the rest of my life with you… I’m going to win your heart…..I’m going to do whatever it takes me to win your heart over. I can’t-
“It won’t ever happen, Hunter. I won’t ever love you even if you are the last man on earth,” I pushed him out of my way and hopped inside my car. I was about to start the car when my phone beeped and I checked the text hesitantly.
‘I found the footage of the restaurant and the hotel, ma’am’ It was a text from Miguel…
