Married By Agreement のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

"Oh my goodness, Madam, where have you been? Why are you only just now coming back?"Stella furrowed her brow seeing Miss Bertha looking worried and slightly scared. "Why?" she asked. "Is there a problem?""Of course there is, Madam. If there weren't, I wouldn't be this frightened."Stella's brow furrowed further. "Why?""Mr. Marvin, Madam. He's been furious, he even fired Mr. Halbert.""What?" Stella looked at Miss Bertha in shock. "Mr. Halbert was fired?"Miss Bertha nodded. "I've never seen Mr. Marvin this angry before. It's the first time he's been this furious.""But why was he so angry? There must be a reason, right? He wouldn't get angry for no reason.""Mr. Halbert was fired because he was deemed unable to look after you, Madam.""Huh? Because of me?" Stella asked, pointing to herself."Yes, Madam. Mr. Halbert was fired because he couldn't prevent you from leaving the house. It seems Mr. Marvin was afraid something bad might happen to you because your leg is still hurt.""Oh m

"Say it clearly, what are you?" Stella asked, tapping Marvin's shoulder as he had been speaking nervously since earlier."I love you!" Marvin quickly confessed.Stella, upon hearing Marvin say that, immediately smiled. Meanwhile, Marvin covered his mouth with his hand and his eyes widened."What did you say, Sir?""N-No! I didn't say anything," Marvin replied, getting up from his seat."But I heard you clearly. Earlier, you said you love me," Stella raising her head to look at Marvin standing beside her."You misheard!" Marvin replied, his heart pounding fast after confessing his love for Stella. Marvin also looked embarrassed and unsure of what else to say."I couldn't have misheard, you clearly said that you—""I'm going down to eat, I haven't eaten since noon," Marvin interrupted, then walked out of the room."Well, then I'll eat too," Stella replied, unaware that her leg still hurt as she got up from the bed.Stella was too happy hearing Marvin say he loved her to notice that she

"Are you still in pain? Did I do it too rough?" Marvin asked Stella, who was lying beside him under the blanket. "You're not traumatized, are you, after what we just did?"Stella shook her head. "No, I'm not traumatized at all, why should I be?" she replied, looking at Marvin. "You were gentle, Sir. It's just that...""Just that what?" Marvin asked. "You're not satisfied?"Upon hearing Marvin's question, Stella felt embarrassed. She lightly hit Marvin's arm. "Don't say things like that."“Why not?”"I'm embarrassed!" Stella replied.Marvin's lips curved into a smile. "Why should you be embarrassed?""You're still asking? Ugh!""So? Why?" Marvin asked, still smiling."It's... it still hurts," Stella hesitantly answered, feeling embarrassed, "Is this normal? Do we need to see a doctor?"Marvin, hearing Stella say that, smiled. "It's your first time, of course it's going to hurt a bit. But next time, it won't hurt anymore.""Really?" Stella asked.Marvin nodded. He then whispered, "Next

Marvin asked bluntly, "What's the matter?"Damian didn't respond to Marvin at all. He immediately approached Stella and asked, "Are you okay? What happened?""Hm? I—I'm fine," Stella replied, her eyes glancing at Marvin.Marvin, seen rotating his eyes, looked annoyed as Damian approached. Meanwhile, Damian, seeing Stella answering him but with her eyes still looking at Marvin, grew more suspicious.Stella removed Damian's hand from her shoulder and whispered, "What are you doing here? You could get me into trouble, Damian! Don't touch me!""Did your husband do something wrong to you?" Damian asked, his tone normal, unlike Stella's whisper."What did you say?" Marvin looked displeased.Damian ignored Marvin's reaction, still staring at Stella. "Tell me the truth and don't be afraid. Did your husband mistreat you again?"Stella shook her head. "No, my husband didn't do anything wrong.""Come on, Stella. Don't lie," Damian said, "I heard you say earlier that this man is a bad man and you

Stella walked with unsteady steps because her body felt completely weak. Even walking felt very difficult. Meanwhile, Marvin, as the main suspect, was smiling contentedly as he stepped out of Stella's room."Don't you intend to help me walk?" Stella asked her husband, who had walked ahead of her.If only she didn't feel hungry and Damian wasn't at her house, she would have preferred to spend time in her room and ask Miss Bertha to bring breakfast to her room.Marvin asked her to come down and have breakfast together so that Damian wouldn't worry about Stella's condition. He didn't like seeing Damian in his house being concerned about Stella.If Damian continued to worry about Stella's condition, he would surely stay longer at their house, and Marvin didn't like it.Stella had said it was good if Damian cared about her because it meant Damian loved her more. It made it easier for her to take revenge.But Marvin still didn't want Damian in his house. His heart was angry, and he wanted D
