บททั้งหมดของ Shall we get Married? It's a Deal!: บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

By the end of that week, Edan was feeling hopeless, problems starting to pile up.At first, Alma continued with the same elusive attitude.Second, Edan's visit with Vivian to a new doctor had not yielded the expected result and had corroborated it... Vivian was pregnant.And third, Erick insisted that Edan organize the family dinner, which was a problem.There was no way to tell Alma that Erick had met Ricardo and suggested dinner, without telling her that Ricardo himself had visited Edan in his office.And although at first, Edan did not want Alma to find out about the recent business relationship she had made with Ricardo, that had now changed.What was Ricardo doing visiting Edan in his office? Alma would ask questions and Edan knew he couldn't lie to her, he had to tell her the truth, and that same weekend, he planned to do so.*Saturday arrived... Just a week ago, Edan and Alma had given themselves completely to each other, and now, they seemed like a pair of strangers.However,

Edan stood still for a moment, had his mother figured it out? How had that happened?He weighed the situation, he could admit the whole lie and bear the consequences, but his father was still not fully recovered, how would he take it when he found out? Would it affect your health?And there was something else, if his parents found out the truth, the fake marriage, it would no longer make sense... That only meant one thing: Alma would leave her home and her life.How could I keep it? How could he keep her by his side with a pregnant Vivian?Then... He had only one option: Deny everything."I don't understand what you're talking about. Edan finally replied, looking very determined.“No? You told your father and me that Alma came from a good family, you gave us to understand that they were of a good social standing and obviously, that's not true.“What? Edan, genuinely confused, though undeniably, was greatly relieved to see that his mother did not speak of what he thought, the false mar

Edan was in the office, accompanied by his mother, he had finally told her the whole truth, in great detail."You must tell your father," Angelica said at the end of the story.“I can't. He replied without hesitation. "If something were to happen to Dad because of me..." Edan's voice trailed off, he couldn't even finish the sentence.“Well... The truth is, Vivian's pregnancy could affect him and if he finds out that Henry wants to marry her, he may and Erick has a heart attack... But as for Alma... He's better now and if you explain it calmly, he'll understand.Edan got up from his desk and walked thoughtfully toward the huge pane of glass. "That would mean ending the contract, and if the fake marriage ends, my relationship with Alma will end as well..."“Edan... That fake marriage will end at any moment, how much of your contract do you have left? A month? A month and a half? How do you intend to retain Alma afterwards? Vivian's pregnancy will still be there by that time and from wha

“I am sorry.“What? Alma turned to Edan, surprised."I'm sorry for the way I acted, I shouldn't have thought you'd run away with him..." But a lot of times, I get blind, I don't think things through. Edan explained as he drove his Ferrari.It was better to talk now, because Alma's family was coming further back in the van and as soon as they all got to Edan's apartment, there wouldn't be much time or space to talk alone."I understand," Alma exhaled, thoughtfully. "Edan, how did you know?" How did you come to find me home just then? Weren't you supposed to be in the company?“Yes, well... It was because of a call I got in the office that I thought you were leaving...“What do you mean?“I was in the office when they called me about a bank matter, they were surprised by an irregular withdrawal in my account made by an unusual person, when I checked, I noticed that they had cashed all the checks that I had paid you as a bonus... So, I assumed that something might have happened to you or

Although Alma didn't say anything to Edan so as not to cause more trouble, the next few days were hell.Vivian spewed her venom wherever she went, and the clashes escalated, especially when Vivian tried to mess with a member of Alma's family."You're so beautiful," Diana murmured with a twinkle of innocence in her eyes, as she watched Vivian flip through a magazine in the living room of the apartment."I know, child... Now go... Shu, Shu..." He sniffed at her as if he were a little animal."Can I tell you something without my mom and sister knowing?" The girl murmured without moving from her place."Yes..." Vivian turned around with a sudden interest, this might be her chance to get some information out. "Tell me." He whispered.“Once, I saw a horror movie, one of those that my mother forbids me to do..."Ash! What a bummer..." Vivian murmured, turning to her place, seeing that she was wasting her time with the little girl.“You know? In that movie there was a very beautiful woman, ju
