Chapter 9.

I'll think about it.

Julieta had stopped Silence and Brandon looked out the window, the driver occasionally glanced in the rearview mirror, the girl really was like a scared bunny that had just come out of the burrow.

It was then that she came out of her thoughts and said to him: Very well Mr. Brandon, I will accept the job, but with one condition.

 Then Brandon asked her what it would be and she answered: I don't want a six-figure salary, as long as you set up a small restaurant for my brother I'll be fine, it's much cheaper for you to pay me six figures monthly, so Brandon told her: Yes, I accept, I will tell my assistant to get a good location with a good commercial point for a restaurant.

¿Do you want it big, medium or small? And she said: I already told you that I want a small restaurant, so Brandon said: well, then a small restaurant it will be… and she continued saying: keep in mind that I am doing this as a way of thanking you for having paid for my father's medical expenses and all his treatment, the bills were really very expensive for two young people struggling to survive.

So Brandon told her: Don't worry, ¿you see how I told you that everything would get better? But she confessed to him that, however, I want to make sure that your son is not a physical abuser, I am a woman who does not like blows, much less being humiliated... if you can promise me and assure me that your son will not disrespect me, I will accept without any objections to marry him, to which making a grimace on his face Brandon said: Well, I trust you that I really don't know how he will react in a marriage, because he is a boy who likes to play, he does not have any type of complaints of physical aggression against women, but he does against men, so I think it is more than clear Julieta that he will not touch a single hair on your head and she said to him ¿Do you promise me? 

To which Brandon said: The first moment that he disrespects you, touches a hair on your head or puts a hand on you, you tell me immediately and I will make sure that on his knees he begs you for it. Sorry.

So it was then that Julieta stretched out her hand in front of Brandon to shake it, vibrating, and he took it as if they were closing a business deal.

Brandon told her: the only condition I'm going to put on you, Julieta, is that since the media tends to be very attentive to the steps my son takes, you must spend at least three days a week in the house that I'm going to give to both of them, so that when some reporter wants to sneak in to get some scoop, it's you who they see coming out of there and not another woman, so she told him: as long as I don't have to share the same room with your son, I'll be happy to go three times a week.

So Brandon smiling said to her: perfect, it is an honor to do business with you Julieta, it seems that you are going to be an excellent wife even if it is only in appearance because I will take care of the rest…

The girl simply nodded, but looked away, she was nervous, very nervous, she knew that she had gotten herself into a very big problem just for wanting to help her father, suddenly the driver stopped and said to him: Mr. Brandon, we have arrived, and then he said to her: ¿do you want to accompany me to the theater Julieta?

 I have an extra ticket and it would be better for you to use it than for it to simply get lost, so she said to him: let's go to the theater Mr. Brandon and he said to her: you can call me father, after all you could say that we are almost family even if it is only in word…
