I’m Someone Else

Olivia’s response left Leah speechless. Such impudence! Does she know who’s sitting in front of her right now? He’s Gunnar Flynn, the Genius of Capitalis! He’s the most eligible bachelor in Capitalis! He’s got the looks and the accomplishments! You should be on your knees thanking me for the blessing it is that you get to marry him! What’s there for you to be dissatisfied with?

Leah would’ve slapped her granddaughter many times over if Gunnar wasn’t there with them.

Gunnar paused briefly before nodding. “I’ll be honest with you, Madam Wilkerson. Your granddaughter’s looks, mannerisms, and abilities are acceptable. I’m willing to consider marrying her if she’s taught to behave herself and know her place.”

He took another look at Olivia. He had to admit that he was attracted to her. What a pretty little thing!

It was easy enough for him to figure out what was happening. Although Leah was Olivia’s grandmother, the two barely spent any time together, so naturally, there wasn’t much of a relationship between them.

“What?” Olivia quipped. “Is the inability to comprehend meaning a contagious disease? I’ve made myself clear. I’m not marrying you! I’m not interested in you at all!”

Olivia was in love with Thomas. No other man could compare to Thomas, no matter how handsome he was. She was completely uninterested in Gunnar.

Gunnar’s expression darkened at once. What did she say? She’s not going to marry me? Why did I come all the way to Irieson then? I, Gunnar Flynn, am the man of women’s dreams back in Capitalis! Tons of young socialites are dying to marry me! How dare Olivia say she’s not interested in me?

“Interesting! How very interesting indeed!”

He was used to beautiful women fawning over him. Olivia’s response stirred up his desire for conquest. After being surrounded by women who threw themselves at him, he was intrigued by the one woman who didn’t have any regard for him.

It would be so satisfying to see her fall at my feet and be hopelessly in love with me.
