The Marriage Effect Novels & Stories

"That's not a problem, you can leave your husband and get a divorce from him. I don't care if you are married; you belong to me and me alone." "Are you crazy?!" Charlotte busted out in anger. She used all of her energy to push Christian's hands off her. "You really expect me to leave my husband for you?" "Listen Charlotte, I know five years have passed but I still feel the same way about you. Plus, I know that the marriage between Sebastian and you is just a contract marriage. You guys never even met prior to a month before your marriage." Charlotte's heart stopped beating for a moment when she heard Christian say that her marriage was based on a contract.

she said, looking at the dress again. “This dress over here, is every girl’s dream, especially wearing it for the man you love. Getting married isn’t just about being happy, but the fact that you share the good news and bad news. It’s not just a trip to heaven” mom said, that’s why I can’t do this!! If getting married with the guy who loves you is not perfect, then what about getting married with someone can never love you?

he complained silently as he watched on. ‘The marriage clause in the will miss Goodman simply means that you have to get married before you get your inheritance—you have to get married to Mr Sheldon here—you both have to marry each other before you can get the inheritance'.The lawyer finally dropped the bomb and both Elizabeth and Marcus gasped deeply in shock.Surely this was a good joke,she thought as she yanked the file from the lawyer's grasp and read throughly....well he wasn't lying,there was a clause that she would only get her inheritance if she married Marcus Sheldon and vice versa—what in the hell was her father thinking?!.

"How is it like that, though?" "Say a company is about to go under," Lyall began explaining. "Say thousands are about to lose their jobs, but there is a way to save them, there is a way to stop all of the otherwise unstoppable chaos from unfolding. A simple marriage. That, naturally, causes a sharing of resources. Causes stocks to suddenly have better worth than they did before. Causes a company to be saved, thousands of jobs to be saved, thousands of families prevented from starvation and destruction. Marriage is a tool."

" Let's not sway away from the topic, shall we? We are removing you from CEO because you have refused to meet our requirements of getting married, and lately, you've failed to bring us good deals and income." My jaw tightened. The contracts I lost were all because of Aiden." What does getting married have to do with this?" " First, believe me when I tell you a woman brings out the best in men. Marriage changes people." The other members nodded in agreement, and whispers of contribution filled the room.

After all, his family should be an advertising model for contraception. As Eric drifted in and out of relationships, one thing became very clear – all women want to get married, and marriage means chaos. Fight with emotions. Children are thrown onto the sidewalk, eager to get lots of attention. Needs more space, until eventually becomes like all other relationships. Divorce. With children who are hurt. No, thanks.

Yeah, I can smell some fuckery right there but I nodded in silence never the less. Mom always used to say while twirling her wedding ring around her left ring finger, 'Marriage isn't a ring worn or a paper signed. It is not just about tying the knot, it is also about keeping the knot tight. It is the union of two hearts beating as one, each that would sacrifice for the other's happiness and wellbeing. Marriage is something so beautiful that even the Gods envied such a union.' Admitted, mom had been the dramatic type, but her words left a lasting imprint on me.

“You need to secure that stability.” I clenched my jaw, resisting the urge to snap back. The old man was right, of course. In our world, marriage wasn’t just about love or companionship; it was about power, alliances, and control. My marriage would solidify my position, ensure that no one could challenge me, either within the family or outside of it. “I’m working on it, Nonno,” I replied, keeping my tone steady. “But it’s not as simple as you think.”

"Ready to go home, husband." They were going back to the same spot they had left that morning, but as essentially different people, Grace thought as they drove through the familiar streets of their neighbourhood to their flat. Marriage had formalised what they already were…….partners, family, and each other's home…….not because it had altered them. "Max, what do you want to do for the rest of our wedding day?" "Order takeaway, sit on our couch and look through our wedding photos while pretending to watch something on N*****x."

There was still a sense of distance. Lani nodded, and Maris began to share. "His father and I married for the benefit of our families, meaning it was a marriage without love. We married to ensure long-term cooperation and the development of both companies, so naturally, our married life was not happy at all." Maris's eyes gradually filled with sorrow as she recalled the unhappy memories. She continued, explaining that due to their incompatible personalities, she and Kane's father constantly argued. From a young age, Kane witnessed their frequent conflicts and observed their cold and distant interactions.
