Married By Agreementย ย ย 140. Who?
Emily repeatedly glanced back, waiting for Marvin to arrive so she could execute her plan. Whether it would succeed or not, she was determined to capture his attention.Before long, the person she was waiting for finally appeared, accompanied by his trusted aide, Dariel. The two men walked together, joining the line to get their lunch."There's my target," Emily muttered. A moment later, she scanned the area, searching for Zaline. "Where is Zaline? Why isn't she here? Ah... this is perfect! She wonโt be here to interfere! The universe is definitely on my side."The corners of Emily's lips curled into a perfect smile."I hope this plan works. If it does, Iโll become rich in no time! And if Mr. Marvin ends up in my arms, I'll become Mrs. Dameer! The wife of the owner of Esther Company. Oh, God, I can't wait for that moment to arrive. Iโm sick of being poor!" Emily thought to herself.She glanced back again, watching Marvin as he selected his food.Quickly, Emily grabbed her phone and op

"Have you figured out who he is? Is it true that he and Stella have known each other for a long time?" Marvin asked as he noticed Dariel entering his office."Yes, they've known each other for a while. It turns out he's a college friend of Keenan," Dariel said, sitting in the chair across from Marvin."Keenan's college friend?" Marvin asked, now looking at Dariel with a serious gaze, setting aside his enormous workload.Dariel nodded. "I looked into Delvin's identity and found out that he went to the same university as Keenan. So, I asked Keenan if he knew Delvin, and he confirmed that Delvin was indeed a friend from college. Stella knows Delvin because he used to visit her house often. Your wife has always been very sociable and talkative, so she got to know her brotherโs friends well.""So they donโt have a special relationship, right? They're just friends?"Dariel nodded. "But...""But what?" Marvin asked."Before he left for Paris to pursue his master's degree and work there, he c

Marvin, who was already halfway up the stairs, stopped in his tracks. He looked at Stella and said, "Is my face really that unreadable to you? Of course I'm jealous, Stella!"Marvin turned back around and continued walking. Stella quickly followed, hurrying until she managed to overtake Marvin and stood in front of him as he reached the top of the stairs."I don't have any feelings for him, Darling," Stella said. "Yes, he did confess his love for me before he left, but I didn't accept it. Didn't I already tell you that I've only fallen in love twice? You know who my first love was, the one who ruined my life. And my second and last love is you. So there's no need to be jealous; you don't have to worry about him because I've never been interested in him, not then and not now."Marvin crossed his arms over his chest. "Then why did you look so tense and shocked when I mentioned his name?" Marvin asked in a flat tone.Though his voice was calm, Marvin was seething inside, and he was afrai

"Are you alone?" Marvin asked as he sat down in front of Emily, his voice flat but full of concern.Emily, who had been waiting for Marvin's arrival, pretended to be startled. "Mr. Marvin?" she called out nervously, though in her heart, she was dancing with joy. A small smile tugged at the corner of her lips, which she tried to hide. She hadnโt expected Marvin to approach her without needing to make the first move. Feeling her plan was going well, Emily was already prepared to advance to the next stage."Are you alone?" Marvin asked again, his voice sounding more relaxed this time as he began eating the food he had picked up earlier. "Iโve noticed you always eat alone."Emily smiled faintly. "Ah, yes, Iโm not very close with the other employees," she replied, fiddling with the spoon in her hand. "Iโm usually with Zaline, but I havenโt seen her since yesterday. Where is she, sir? Did you send her to work outside the office?" she asked curiously. She was genuinely curious about where Za

Emily stepped into the luxurious restaurant, her eyes scanning the elegant room before finally landing on the table where Marvin and Stella were seated. Feeling slightly flustered, she walked toward them, trying to shake off the awkwardness that enveloped her.โHave you been waiting long?โ she asked with a forced smile, still trying to catch her breath after the long journey. She had come because of Marvin's sudden invitation to join them for dinner without any clear reason. โSorry I'm late. I had to wait for the bus for quite a while,โ she added, trying to explain.Marvin turned and greeted her with a smile that seemed perfect. โNo problem, Emily. We just got here ourselves,โ he replied casually. He then shifted his gaze to Stella, who was sitting beside him gracefully. โRight, darling?โ he continued in a gentle tone.Stella, who had been sitting quietly, smiled softly and nodded, her gaze warm and calm.Meanwhile, Marvin deliberately clasped Stella's hand, his fingers gently tracing

"Would you like to come in?" Emily asked politely."No, Iโll head straight home," Delvin replied. "Thank you for tonight. Honestly, I didn't expect us to get along so well."Emilyโs heart suddenly began to race, pounding erratically as if it was about to leap out of her chest. "What? Geโgetting along?""I mean, I didnโt expect you to be so fun and not at all boring. Honestly, I was very reluctant to come to this dinner. I only came because Stella asked me to. My friends often introduce me to women, but theyโve all been so dull. Thatโs why I was hesitant about attending the dinner Stella and Marvin arranged. But it turns out, youโre not as bad as I imagined," Delvin said."Oh, really?" Emily asked, smiling shyly.Delvin mirrored her behavior, feeling the same awkwardness as Emily. For some reason, there was a strange feeling growing in his heart when he was around her."It's getting really late, Delvin. Go home. If you donโt mind, text me when you get home so I wonโt worry," Emily sug

"How did it go? What happened last night?" Marvin asked curiously, his eyes fixed seriously on Emily, who was sitting across from him, waiting for her response."Nothing unusual happened. We just had dinner together, and then he drove me home. Though I think he only did it out of obligation, Sir," Emily lied. The truth was, what happened between her and Delvin last night left a deep impression on her. She enjoyed spending time with him."Out of obligation? Why do you think that?" Marvin asked, raising an eyebrow."He said he wasn't really interested in coming because he didnโt feel like meeting me. If it werenโt for Mrs. Stella, he wouldnโt have come at all. That means he felt obligated, doesnโt it?""Did he really say that?" Marvin asked.Emily nodded, leaning back in her chair with a long sigh. "Let's just drop it, Sir. There's no point in trying to help me anymore. I'm not beautiful, so there's no way Delvin would be interested in me. It seems like he's into women like Mrs. Stella,

โHurry up and get out. Why are you just sitting there?โ Marvin asked Emily, who was still sitting beside him, even though the car he had been driving had stopped about five minutes ago.โSir? Letโs just go back. I donโt know why, but suddenly my heart is racing. I think I need a doctor. Iโve never felt like this before,โ Emily replied.The truth was, her heart was indeed pounding wildly. She felt strange, something she had never experienced before.โThatโs a common thing for someone whoโs in love, Emily.โโHuh?โ Emily quickly turned to Marvin, who was sitting next to her, her eyes wide in surprise.โWhy do you look so shocked?โโIn love?โ Emily asked, uncertain.โYes, in love. I felt the same way when I fell in love with my wife. My heart would race like crazy, especially when I looked into her eyes,โ Marvin explained. โWhatโs going on with you? Why do you seem so off? Werenโt you in love with him from the start? You said you fell in love at first sight.โEmily swallowed hard. โYes, I

Delvin stood in front of Emily's apartment door, his eyes filled with doubt and hope. His hand continuously pressed the doorbell, but there was no sign that the door would open."Emily? Darling? Are you in there? Open the door, Iโm back, Darling," Delvin's voice was full of regret.He stood with his hands in his pockets, feeling the cold air seeping in through the gap under the door. Delvin took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. His heart was in turmoil, remembering the hurtful words he had once said and his efforts to make things right.Since the incident that nearly cost Emily her life, and after spending difficult times in Paris to reflect, Delvin had decided he couldnโt keep holding onto his anger. He wanted to return and make amends. He wanted to apologize and hoped that Emily would give him a chance to explain everything.He no longer cared about the mistakes Emily had made. After all, Emily had changed and was no longer the person she used to be. So, he decided to come bac

Delvin parked his car in front of the hospital, the tires screeching as he stopped near the emergency room door. Marvin, his face full of tension and tears, quickly jumped out of the back seat. He carried the unconscious Stella and ran towards the emergency room door.Delvin followed Marvin swiftly, fear evident on his face. Meanwhile, Emily, who was a few steps behind them, walked slowly. Her heart felt heavy, as if each step carried a greater burden.Emily watched Delvinโs back, busy and completely ignoring her. โHe says he loves her?โ she murmured with pain. โBut whatโs happening now? He doesnโt care about me.โTears began to flow down her cheeks. She felt isolated in a situation that should have been full of care. Delvin, who should have been supporting her, was instead focused entirely on Stella and Marvin. Emily felt a deep heartache, feeling neglected when she needed support the most.With her head bowed, Emily continued her steps, trying to hold back her tears. In her mind, al

Marvin, Stella, Dariel, and Delvin stood at the edge of the cliff, their eyes fixed on Emily, who was dangling there, gripping tightly to a tree root that pierced through the ground. Her face was pale, tears streamed down her cheeks, and her body trembled with overwhelming fear. Below her, the abyss gaped like a black maw, ready to swallow her at any moment."Darling?" Delvin shouted from above, his voice hoarse with barely concealed anxiety. "Grab my hand, I'll pull you up!" His hand stretched out toward Emily, trying to reach her trembling fingers.Emily looked down at the depth awaiting her below. Fear enveloped her, making her sobs even more uncontrollable. "I'm scared," her voice barely audible, drowned in heart-wrenching sobs."You'll be okay!" Marvin's voice followed, filled with confidence and hope. He lowered his body closer to the edge of the cliff, extending his hand alongside Delvin's. "Now grab our hands, mine and Delvin's. We'll help you up."Stella stood not far from th

Fanny stared out the villa window. "Has he left yet?" she asked without turning, her voice firm with a hint of impatience.Willy, the brother of the deceased man she once loved, kept talking after bringing Emily here, which only irritated her further. So, with cunning, Fanny sent him away to buy food for the evening, using it as an excuse to keep him away while she executed her plan.One of her henchmen nodded, his face expressionless. "Yes, Miss. He's gone far," he replied curtly.Fanny sighed in relief, a thin, meaningful smile curling on her lips. "Okay, bring the girl!" she ordered coldly, her gaze shifting to Emily, who lay helpless in the corner of the room.Emily tried to struggle, her body writhing in vain on the cold floor. "Mmmhhh..." Her screams were muffled by the cloth stuffed in her mouth, only the rustle of fear could be heard. Her wide eyes, filled with panic, welled up with tears as she watched Fanny approach with a terrifying gaze.Fannyโs men moved quickly, lifting

Marvin stepped into the company cafeteria, his forehead furrowed when he saw only Zaline and Daniel sitting together at one of the tables.โJust the two of you? Whereโs Emily? Where did she go?โ Marvin asked, his voice filled with confusion.Zaline and Daniel exchanged glances before Daniel responded, โShe didnโt show up, and we havenโt heard anything from her.โ He sighed, showing his phone to Marvin. โIโve tried calling her several times, but her numberโs not active.โMarvin frowned, a mix of confusion and concern crossing his face. โDid she request leave from the division head?โ he asked, trying to find an explanation.Daniel shook his head, his expression mirroring the same confusion. โNo, I even checked with the division head, and thereโs no word from her today. Itโs strange; she usually informs the division head if sheโs not coming in.โMarvin remained silent for a moment, his mind racing through unpleasant possibilities. Without saying another word, he reached into his pocket an

Delvin gripped the steering wheel with one hand while the other slapped his forehead in frustration. "Damn it, my phone! I left my phone in the room," he muttered, exasperated. He had just realized that his phone was still at Emily's apartment.Earlier, before heading out to pick Emily up from work, he had decided not to bring his phone because its battery was dead. So, he had plugged it in to charge. "How am I supposed to contact Emily without my phone?" Delvin grumbled, annoyed with himself.Quickly, he turned the steering wheel and headed back toward Emily's apartment.Delvin drove fast but cautiously.Delvin's car finally stopped in front of Emily's apartment building. He immediately got out of the car and looked around. His eyes fell on Emily, who was following someone wearing a black hoodie. Delvin's heart pounded with worry."Who is she with?"

Are you okay with me leaving you alone for so long?โEmily, who had been attentively gazing at Delvinโs face, smiled faintly. The warmth in her eyes made Delvin feel slightly more at ease. "Itโs fine," she replied in a soothing voice. โYou always come home very late on weekends. Iโm getting used to it.โ Her sweet smile widened as she added, "Besides, before you, I was always alone. So, itโs okay, darling."Delvin sighed in relief, but there was still an uneasy feeling gnawing at his heart. He knew how hectic work was on weekends, but

He was furious when he saw me and cursed at meโhe cursed at me harshly and continuously, Dad."Mr. Myron's brow furrowed, his expression turning to confusion and concern. "Cursed at me too? Why?" he asked, clearly puzzled and not fully understanding the situation. "I don't feel like I ever caused him any trouble. I never communicated with him, so why would he curse at me? I haven't wronged him.""He hates you because of Mrs. Daisy," Marvin said.Mr. Myron raised an eyebrow, waiting for further explanation, but what Marvin said next was quite shocking."Apparently, during their marriage, Mrs. Daisy never loved him.

Marvin glanced at Dariel, who was seated across from him, with a serious and tense expression.โItโs been over a month, and still no trace of her?โ Marvin asked, his voice low but demanding.Dariel, slightly hunched over, slowly shook his head. โI suspect sheโs fled the city, maybe even the country, with a fake identity.
