Contract Marriage Novels & Stories

Acting unconcerned, I said, "Don't bother. I already ordered take out." A look of embarrassment and disappointment etched his face and this gave me some kind of joy. I proceeded to ask him for the contract regarding our marriage so I could sign on it. But instead of giving it to me, Nathan said, "Please, can we just forget about the contract and spend sometime together?"

"Of course, it matters. If you two don't like each other, then I still have a chance. Life is dull, being with a woman like you is interesting." Serena gave him a disdainful look, wiped her mouth with a tissue after eating, and stood up. "You don't need to say such things to test me. What Matthew and I have is, speaking frankly, a contractual relationship. He married me under grandpa's coercion, and I'm not confident enough to make him fall head over heels for me. We both understand this boundary." Finishing her words, she walked to the door, adding, "Thanks for treating me today. "

By page twenty-four, she looked angry. “Absolutely not.” “Maya.” “No. This is not a contract. This is a trap with letterhead.” “It’s standard for clients at this level.” “Standard for people who expect to ruin lives and pay invoices afterward.” Lena rubbed her forehead. “It’s one wedding.” “No, it’s not. You said it yourself. This is a merger wearing a veil.” That was the problem. Maya was right.

his calm expression was changing slowly to a fierce one. "I...I…" He took out a paper from the file and pushed it to her. "You signed a two year contract with me and ended up sending divorce letter after a year and half, huh?" "We are no longer married, and I won't answer to you." "Huh? You don't answer to me? So you realize it's a breach of contract and read these consequences again!" Emily recalled that there were consequences stated in the contract when she signed it nearly seven years ago. "Whatever is the case, the two years are already over and we are divorced now."

“Celebrity? No, please. I'm just a PR employee.” Marcos shrugged. “Look, I’m not trying to overstep, but are you happy? I'm sure marriage to an incredible man like Liam Anderson isn't easy. You must have it hard sometimes with all the attention and especially at work. Why did both of you even decide to reveal your marriage when you've been married for a quite while.” He glanced at her.

I grabbed the folder easily this time, turned it over, and froze when I read the title- ‘Marriage Contract.’ My breath caught in my throat. I felt relieved seeing those words, but it felt like I’d been punched and soothed at the same time. I sat back onto the chair, one knee folded beneath me as I opened the folder and began flipping through the pages. Ronald and Kyla's full names were displayed on the first page. I began reading through the different clauses and conditions. “...Spouses must uphold the public image of union until a minimum period of 3 years…” I stared as I continued reading. So it was all just an act?

Lily said for emphasis. There was that look from Christopher again. “Alright, so let us get down to the rules,” Christopher said, but Lily heard differently. “Huh?” Lily asked with wide eyes. “The rules!” Christopher barked angrily and frustrated. “Yeah, sure,” Lily nodded her head, grateful that it was not what she had thought she heard. “We are only married in paper, and the both of us know that this marriage is based off on a contract, so no strings attached whatsoever,” Christopher started.

This is wrong. " No... " my voice stutttered as I was intimidated by him. " That's a contract marriage.... the marriage will be liable for just one year, after that this contract will become null and void!!! " His face was stern as he continued oozing out hot magma from his mouth. "But why do you want to marry me?? " " None of your concern....
