This Contract Is Sealed Novels & Stories

Ethan pointed to a clause and asked again, "Keith, isn’t this part written wrong?" "No." Keith gave it a quick look and shook his head. Since Keith himself confirmed it, Ethan said no more. He picked up the pen and signed the contract. The contract was in duplicate. Party A’s copy already had the seal and signature, so once Ethan signed, it immediately took effect. "Pleasure working together." Ethan rose and handed one copy to Keith. Keith accepted it with a faint reply. "Pleasure working together." Through the meal, the conversation flowed easily among the men. From the moment Keith entered, Autumn had remained silent.

Can I walk away? But my heart sank with the reminder. I already signed the contract. My name was on it. Binding. Sealed. Final. I had no choice. Unless…

Just as the tide of disapproval began to rise, Suzy crossed her arms and lifted her chin, her voice ringing out firm and clear. "Who said the deal didn’t go through?" The room froze. A few beats of stunned silence passed before Aiden sneered, "What, you’re seriously trying to say you closed the deal? Don’t embarrass yourself." Suzy didn’t waste another word. She stepped forward, opened the folder, and laid the signed contract flat on the table. When everyone saw the official seal stamped beneath the final signature, the entire room went dead silent. Everyone was stunned. "This—this can’t be real!" Aiden’s face twisted in disbelief. "You must’ve faked it!"

However, what's included should be sufficient for your purposes. As discussed, obtaining this information required accessing sealed court documents, which may have legal implications if traced back to you. I've taken precautions, but I recommend you consult with legal counsel before taking any action. Final invoice attached. Please remit payment within 30 days. I flip to the next page. The contract. It's partial. Whole sections blacked out. But what's there is damning. MARRIAGE AGREEMENT Between: Damien Alexander Hale ("Party A") and Esmeralda Morrison ("Party B")

“Sorry to disturb.” Sheena turned her head. “Sean?” “Yes, Mrs. Sheena,” Sean replied. “Sorry for coming suddenly.” Julio stood up. “What is it?” Sean bowed politely. “There are important documents that need Mrs. Sheena’s signature. Actually, it could be postponed, but this concerns a contract deadline.” Sheena nodded. “It’s fine. Bring them here.” Sean opened his folder and handed over several documents. Sheena read them carefully, her expression serious.

Zack froze when he saw it was me, then answered. I spoke calmly. "Zack, this is Lisa. There are a few details that need final confirmation about the contract between your company and ours. Richard has authorized me to handle everything." Ignoring the look on Zack's face, I continued. "Bring your company seal and come to our office tomorrow. We'll sign the contracts in person. I'll be waiting." Everyone held their breath, watching the turnaround occur right in front of their eyes. Zack's expression was filled with anger and humiliation. He wanted to refuse, but he did not have the courage to.

“I get that a lot.” The tension in the atmosphere finally softened for a moment, our. Then, breaking the silence, he brought out what looked like a small neatly wrapped document. “You can open it whenever you’re ready,” he murmured. Curiosity got the better of me as I wondered what clauses he'd written. Taking a deep breath, I took it from him and examined the body. The document was neatly sealed in gold trim—the contract. Already signed by him, mine blank next to him. Of course it was.

He put a piece of paper on the table. “A contract?” He nodded. “I just need to make sure that you will honor your words. It is legal.” I stared at the contract and saw that it has a legal seal. It also has a signature so I nodded and took all of it. “I will call you right after I make a decision.”

“Now then. Joselyn will also start the seal using the crystal in her pouch. The crystal has a wolf anchor attached to it already. For those of you that do not know. An anchor is always used and kept anonymous to keep the contracts and promises made in tact. You all will begin by signing the contract in front of you when Joselyn tells you to begin. That will be your region’s copy to take back with you. You will then pass your contract to the next Regional Alpha to sign their name on the next line and so on until all signatures have been made on all copies.

I reassured. "Well, it is already. We can't harbour you here anymore. You can leave now. We are sealing the deal too, so your effort here would not have to be a waste of time," Mr. Khoza said. "What?" I squealed as my face flushed. "Here is the contract," one of the men cladded in suit said, as he opened a briefcase and extracted a piece of paper from it. He walked to my side of the table and dropped it in front of me alongside a pen. "Sign it."
