Conveniently Married To A Billionaire

HAPPY READING REIGN MENTURE POV "Son, when are you going to settle down? You don't date and you're always behind this desk." As usual, my mother is giving her signature talk and concerned look. As often as every week it's the same conversation over and over and over again. Frankly, it is getting old and she doesn't understand my plate is full and I can't handle a wife at this time. Not that I can't handle a woman, I wouldn't get the time to be with her. It would be very unfair to any woman being put in the position. if anyone to understand this would be mother but.... "Boy, don't make me come across this table and put you across my lap for an answer." And for all those who are wondering I'm a grown-ass man and she still thinks she can put a thrashing on me. Trust me she would try too, she is as crazy as she wants to be. She is an especially crazy woman when it comes to her sons as grown as we are. "Mother, when the time is right I will give you the best daughter-in-law the land provides and she will give you all the grandchildren you desire," I state with a bored tone tired of this conversation but my mother being who she is, I can't avoid it no matter how hard I try. Never try messing with an angry black woman. I know the consequences I have tried. I mentally facepalm myself for remembering one of the many showdowns between mother and I, even my brothers face the same reprimands. "Don't mother me and you said that the last twenty how many times I've asked and it's getting quite old." This conversation is beyond old but I can't say that to her "It can't be old when it is the truth and you will see, you will love her mother." "Is that a guarantee son?" "It's a fact mother." "How is it possible when you don't date Reign?" "I will find her and bring her to you." "Explain," she says. "Trust me," I answer. "How?" she asks. "Same as always, I deliver mother." She looks at me giving her motherly stare piercing into my head. I can see her wheels turning and she's thinking hard of what to hit me with next. I'm the eldest of three sons at age twenty-eight. My younger brother after me is Ryon Menture at age twenty-six he is the playboy of the family with a different arm candy whenever he feels like it and my mother is convinced there is a woman out there to make him curb his ways. Then there is Reyon Menture age twenty-two, he thinks he's more mature than the three of us combine and is ready to settle down but mother wouldn't have it. Nevertheless, she takes the time every week to find me at my office or at my house to have this talk and every week I try to appease her and it works. But today she is making the point of keeping me at my office and giving the full lecture with a few threats. What can I do, it is my mother. I have to take it. Or she would try to give me the thrashing she promised years ago. Today isn't the first day I'm hearing of it. "Staring at me wouldn't magically make her appear. I'm going to get her, believe me". She knows I'm to my word and she always trusts me in that way. "I trust you and if you don't deliver I will find you a nice girl and arrange your marriage." "Yes ma'am." "I need a timeline," she states firmly. "Six months" I answer. "That's all your getting Reign." "That's all I need mother." "It better be," she says pointing her index finger at me. "It will be, mother." "Your father and I were married way, way before your current age and to this date we are happily in love and our marriage is beautiful because we have each other. It is all I want for you and your brothers, a strong woman to come home too. "You worry too much mother." "I do not and someone has to worry about you," she says and it's true can't ever stop your mother from worrying no matter how old you are. "Now, how are you son?" There goes the question she should've asked first but it's not about me it's about her and needing a daughter-in-law or was it a daughter she needs. Whatever her reasons Ryon and I had to endure this every week. We try to run every week but my mother is sharp and always caught us when we are off our guard. "I am well mother and how are you?." "I'm much better Reign. Your father and I are having dinner this evening" she finally smiles. My parents had a world win romance according to my mother who felt the need to remind us in each of her talks and every chance she gets. They met on a cruise ship twenty-eight years ago and I am the living proof. They got married four weeks after the cruise upon word of my conception. My grandfather on my father's side was against It from the beginning and did everything to separate them. He even tried to pay off my mother but the more he tried, the more their love blossomed. They ran away getting married in a courthouse. My father being a white man was only twenty-three years of age at the time, mom was twenty and they didn't even finish university at that time. I think my father never had the thrills of a black woman so when he did he never looked back. However, they lived with my mother's parents who loved dad and accepted him immediately because he stayed by their daughter's side despite being cut off from his family and his inheritance. Grandma birthed me and supported the young couple until they completed university. My father started this company the moment he graduated with his degree. It had many failed attempts but he persevered with mom at his side and the assistance of my grandmother. Today it's a multi-trillion dollar software company. We specialize in electronics, Information Technology, programming mobiles, iPod, Personal computers, television, tablets etc you name it we program it or create the software for it. Dad initially engaged in the segment of the personal computer which later grew exponentially after its huge success with working and partnering with huge tech companies all over the world. My father made sure we followed in his footsteps and my brothers and I are set to run the company side by side. Even though Reyon is still in school his place is already secure with Ryon and I. On that note, my father is nowhere near ready to retire as we stand by his side, father and son. I am head of the information technology department. Ryon is head of programming and Reyon will head the Microsoft department after his graduation. Apart from the family business, in university I joined a secret protection society and after college formed the Kalahari bushmen. I have roughly one thousand men under my control, loyal and ready to serve. My men are scattered across the globe and they get the job done whenever there is someone to be found or information to be gathered. High or low, even, in a nutshell, we find what and whom we are looking for and safely return them to their families. My family doesn't know of my involvement in the Kalahari bushmen and I plan to keep it that way. At first, it was tough when I lived at the family mansion but now on my own and the wear houses I acquire it's much easier to manage. My right-hand man Kamaru is very efficient and get the job done no matter the task. He is also my best friend since high school and knows me better than anyone else. It's funny when I hear the rumours and it's me staring them in their faces. It is a rumour I am feared across Europe and I'm not doubting it because of the work we get done. The mere mention of my name underground and the task is completed. "Since you're not going to say another word, I'm going to go get your father and talk to him." I get out of my chair, walk around my desk and help her up. "It was good seeing you, mother. Say hi to the old man for me." "Don't call my husband old," she kiss my cheek walking out. I chuckle my mother is something else. "I have a family dinner plan for next week make sure to tell your brother." "I will." I walk her to the elevator, see her off and walk back into my office. As soon as I sit down, Ryon walks in "is it, mom, I saw leaving your office," he asks. "It was, how did you know she was here." "Shoot I was hiding at your PA desk when I saw her enter your office. shit, I can't with her and the talk." "So you left me to hear it alone," I say giving him a blank look. "Can't take another one of those talks man," he says taking his seat. "You're not getting off the next round because I've bought myself some time and family dinner is next week." He groans "how did you do that." "I promise her a daughter-in-law if she gives me six months my brother." "It guarantees me time my brother," I told him. "So it's on me to hear the talk by myself for the next six months, can't a black man get a break." I chuckle "You let me hear it this time alone and mom doesn't take breaks you know that." "I'm thinking of something to get out of this as soon as possible," he says to me. "You know, you should get married and settle down," I told him. "Look who's talking," he says. "Well, I don't run around from bedrooms to bars to hotels to wherever you go with a different woman every week." "How else am I to meet my wife if I don't expand my horizon and if I don't test the pool." I shake my head at him, "you will keep hearing it then." "Tell me how are you going to meet your wife in six months." "I leave it to faith to have its way." "Ok, Mr faith let's see how this goes. When mom chooses one of her society women daughters and marries you off. "Not going to happen." "Six months?" he shakes his head getting up, "you talked to dad." "Yesterday, why." "He said he wanted to see me." "He didn't mention it to me." "I hope mom didn't bring him to her side with this marriage talk." "You know dad take on it." "I'm heading up there now and leave you to find your bride in six months." "Leave my office." "Gladly" "You will meet mom up there." He groans closing the door. My brother and I have a great relationship we can talk about anything freely and without judgment. They respect me as their elder to come to me whenever and about whatever. there is no sibling rivalry or competition between us my mother would have our heads if we did. I sit back in my chair and take out the missing report of a woman I can look at all day. Her big round eyes are liquid brown which draws me in like she's looking back at me with dark lashes. She is twenty-four years of age has the most beautiful, pretty brown skin I've ever seen. She has thick, naturally curly hair that hangs a little above her shoulders, it is dark brown with a few caramel-coloured highlights. Her award-winning smile lights up her eyes making them sparkle. She has a wide, round face with a pointed chin. A photograph has never captivated me as hers has since the past week of me staring at it. The first time I laid eyes on her photograph my heart galloped and I can't explain the signals my body was giving off. It was so foreign to me and still is but I welcomed this feeling. Delsa Mingo affects me and I haven't met her, for the life of me I couldn't figure out why. To date, I have no leads as to where and when she'd gone missing. Her parents made a report after they hadn't heard from her in the past two weeks. They claimed she went on vacation wanting to travel a little before starting her career as a teacher. She chose a country in Europe and decided to work her way from Monaco to Malta. Somewhere between those lines, she went missing. Why such a beautiful young girl would want to travel all alone is a mystery to me, the report also indicates she has a birthmark under her left breast and she is four feet eight inches tall. I can't wait to discover this birthmark of hers. After seeing her photograph I've taken a personal interest in her case and have my best men working around the clock trying to locate her immediately. SAVING HER is my biggest concern at the moment. Never have I been this captivated by eyes, lips and facial features so beautiful and tranquil it brought me to my knees. My phone rings and it's my private line that my men can reach me any time day or night. I quickly swipe across the screen answering, "boss we found her." These are the only words I wanted to hear. "send all the information to Kamaru." "Right away boss," he replies. "I want all of her information on my desk before nightfall. From the moment she was conceived to today's date." "Not a problem sir."
