A Contractual Couple Again の小説・ストーリー

He had me by the throat and there was absolutely nothing I could do about it. I had totally forgotten all about the contract and now my hands are tied. I sank into my seat as I felt the tears form in my eyes. ‘Why the f*ck am I crying?’ I wiped my eyes with the back of my hand and exhaled. ‘This is only for a while. The contract is to last for a year, right? You got this. You can do this, Jade.’ ‘He wants to see you break but don’t let him get to you. All you have to do is be good at your job and avoid him, you’ll be fine.’

Her brain couldn't digest that she was married already. She was married! With Kelvin Williams! "We will pack all the things in your house," Kelvin said, breaking Luliyah out of her thoughts. Luliyah looked up, seeing Kelvin who said it while closing his eyes. "Ah ... But ..." Luliyah couldn't digest it all. Everything was happening so fast. Wasn't their marriage just a contract marriage? Should she also live with Kelvin? 'Contract marriage...' They were married because of their own interests. Harris initially opposed the marriage because Kelvin was in no gain position. Kelvin will spend a lot of money to pay for Luliyah's mother hospital bill, but what will she give Kelvin in return?

People turned to watch. Cameras lifted. Luca’s breath caught in his throat. Damon stopped in front of him. Close enough that Luca could see the storm in his eyes. “You said the contract did its job,” Damon said quietly. Luca’s heart pounded. “It did.” “And that means you’re leaving.” “Yes.” Damon studied him for a long moment. Then he said something Luca never expected. “Too bad.” Luca blinked. “What?” Damon’s voice hardened. “Because I never agreed to end it.”

"Yes, it's been a whirlwind, but I wouldn't have wanted to spend it with anyone else." They both were smiling with pride, but their expressions also revealed the challenges they faced in their marriage. Reiner's face was lined with worry lines as he remembered all the conflicts they had gone through, while Laura's eyes welled up with tears as she relived the struggles they had faced together. Reiner spoke first, "Do you remember when we first started our contract marriage, how difficult it was to get it off the ground?" Laura nodded in agreement and Reiner continued, "But we never gave up and now, ten years later, our marriage is stronger. We've built a perfect family despite the oppositions

"This is the most awkward reward negotiation I've ever witnessed, and I've sat through corporate merger discussions." Lucas broke the silence, his voice carrying that same unnerving calm that seemed to characterize everything he did. The decisiveness in his tone left no room for argument. "Then we'll resolve it another way." Relief washed through Nina like a cool wave. Good. She'd take literally anything over this suffocating billionaire tension that made her feel like she was drowning in expensive cologne and unspoken expectations. Lucas met her eyes directly, his gaze unwavering and intense."Marry me."

I asked, presuming the worst. "No," he said, amusement audible in his voice. "We have… a different type of work to do." "Like what?" My mind restlessly processed through the issues I might have forgotten about. "Our wedding." He chuckled. "Oh…" Was it weird that I stopped thinking about the fact that we needed to actually get married to become husband and wife? Contractual married looked a whole lot simpler in romances and dramas. Two people went to the registry office, signed papers, got their stamps, and were married.

"But I won't marry you." "Oh. But what I want is for you to marry me," I said in a stern voice. "I can't get pregnant without a husband, Adam." I brought my hand to my mouth when I suddenly felt nauseous. "If I have to pay you just for you to marry me, I'd gladly do it. Just name your price." Adam looked at me as if I had grown horns on my head. "Fine. Ten million dollars, Claire." "Ten million? Consider it done," I answered just as I finally threw up my dinner in front of him.

“What are you doing? Do you have no shame?” Elliot was in a great mood. He looked at her blushing face, and teased her, “You just said it's normal for a couple to sleep together.” “I meant a normal couple. Are we normal?” “Aren't we normal?” “Mr. Patton, didn't you forget we're in a contractual marriage?” “Mrs. Patton, didn’t you cancel the contract a few days ago?” Sophia was left speechless.
