Novel & Cerita The Marriage Contract

As she sat there lost in a lonely world of her own thoughts, her eyes caught with a stack of papers - the details of their contract marriage. Olivia's hands trembled as she carried the contract, her eyes blurred with unshed tears. She knew that she needed to revisit the document that had shaped her life for the past several months. With a shaky breath, she began reading the contract aloud, her voice shaking with emotion. "In accordance with this contract," she started, "Nathaniel and Olivia agree to enter into a marriage of convenience for a period of one year. The purpose of this contract is to provide mutual benefits to both parties involved."

I failed to recognize such because I was overwhelmed by his sudden disturbance and the mention of marriage. “Sit.” My brows furrowed. Why does he order me around like I am a dog? I snorted and took a seat on the couch. He dragged the envelope nearer in my direction before crossing his arms over his chest. “This is a contract about our marriage.

“Who would’ve thought you’re knowledgeable in legal matters?” Jasmine's face flushed red. She could sense he was being sarcastic. Tristan leaned very close to her, puffing his breaths on the tip of her nose. “In that case, we are gonna be considered a legally married couple if we get our Contract marriage agreement signed, Right?” He’s as cunning as a fox!
