The Brother Who Hates Me 45 Time Is Gold

Raven looked at the document. Jordan already had his signature on it beforehand so only hers was blank.
She was really hesitating with the consummation thing. She knew Jordan. He usually followed rules by the book. It's safer if she can keep the original condition. However, she can no longer delay the signing. What if Jordan suddenly decided to just get another woman? Someone who can meet all the criteria and standard fit for a perfect wife.
In his kind of world, of rich people, this certain things do happen a lot, the 'Marriage of Convenience' was very common. People marry even though they don't like or love the person at first. They just all say the same thing, that everything will follow eventually after marriage, like and love can be developed in due time. For some relationship, it can be true but there are also some which end in failure.
She suddenly felt afraid for some unexplained reason. So she quickly signed the paper, put it back inside the envelope and walked out to her room to go at Jordan's room.
Raven knocked at the door.
"Who's that?" She heard Jordan asked.
"It's me." Raven answered. She opened the door and went inside when Jordan told her to come in.
He looked like he had a shower. He was wearing just his pajamas while he was drying his hair with a towel.
Raven blushed so she slightly bowed her head and spoke, "I'm sorry. I will just return after you are finished."
She turned around to go back when Jordan suddenly stopped her.
"You are here already and I'm almost done." Jordan said plainly.
However, Raven was uncomfortable seeing him shirtless so she said, "Put on your shirt first. I'm not comfortable talking to a shirtless guy."
Jordan chuckled and put on his shirt.
"You can turn around now Miss Conscious." Jordan teased her. Raven turned around with a crumpled face. Jordan already guessed why she was here since she was holding the envelope.
He smiled wickedly while he was still drying his hair with the towel. Raven walked towards Jordan's dresser and said, "Come here and sit. I will help you dry your hair."
Jordan arched his eyebrow though he followed. Raven put the envelope on the desk and pulled out Jordan's blow dryer at the side of the dresser. She started to dry his hair.
"Are you sleeping with wet hair?" Raven asked while she strokes Jordan's hair under the blower.
"Yeah most of the time since I am lazy and dead tired already to do this kind of stuff. I see you brought the envelope? Did you sign it already?" Jordan said while he was staring at Raven from the mirror.
He felt good. Raven doing this little thing for him made his heart flutters.
"Yes, I already did." Raven answered then sighed deeply.
"What's with the sighing? Don't worry I won't do anything at all unless you permit me too. Ouch!" Jordan said and growled at the same time when Raven suddenly pulled his hair harder while she was stroking it.
"Sorry, the hairs were intertwined." Raven said as an alibi. Jordan was teasing her so she intentionally pulled the hairs abruptly.
'Serves you right!' she thought inwardly.
Jordan was grinning while he still stared at Raven through the mirror. 'She was really cute blushing like that.' He thought to himself while he enjoyed staring at Raven's beautiful face lovingly.
"I will ask Lou to prepare the wedding two days before you go back to school. Give me the list of the persons you want to invite." Jordan said excitedly.
Raven frowned and said, "That fast? Can we just do the wedding after commencement day?"
Jordan did not answer. The sooner the better it will be. He preferred to do it before his father's operation.
"We will do it anyway. Why wait that long? Besides, you had requested for it to be a secret. So I don't see the point for delay." Jordan answered simply.
Raven's face can't be painted. She felt that she's been trapped.
"You are the one who needs help. But why it's you who always should be followed?" Raven asked in irritation. She turned off the dryer and put it back and immediately went out of Jordan's room.
Jordan inhaled and exhaled deeply.
Although the doctors had confirmed the higher rate of success after operation, unfortunately, for most people, stage 4 colon cancer is not considered curable. However, it can almost always be treated.
People can live many months and even years with stage 4 colon cancer according to the doctors. How long a person lives after operation depends on many things, including how the colon cancer cells are behaving, where the colon cancer has spread, and how a person responds to available treatments.
It can't be helped. Time is gold for them right now, especially for his father.
