Sofia bit her lower lip as she continued reading the details of the contract. that Alexander had handed

her. On it were details about this ‘marriage of convenience.

“Is there anything else?” Alexander asked; his brown eyes met hers. “Anything that you wanted to

add?”

However, before Sofia could say a word, her phone vibrated for the second time since she met

Alexander in this quaint restaurant she did not even know existed near her office.

“Hey, sorry. I am currently in a meeting,” Sofia said as she answered her phone. The caller was none

other than Daniel. She had already declined his call earlier. Why was he calling her again?

“How about we have dinner together? After the meeting, of course,” Daniel said on the other line.

“Daniel, look-”

“Sorry. I was just…” There was a pause on the other line. “I missed you.”

elded “Let’s talk later. My client is here,” Sofia said before she ended the call.

“Client?” Alexander chuckled. “I didn’t know my younger brother could be very clingy, considering he

had been treating you like a fool for two years

now.”

“Why am I not surprised that you were already aware of how long he’s been treating me this way yet

did nothing to bring this matter to my attention?” she snapped.

“I don’t see why it is any of my business,” Alexander answered almost immediately.

This answer seemed to choke all the words that she wanted to say. Prior to their meeting a few days

ago, she had only met him once. There were times that they had seen each other at events, but they

would only nod at each other. He does not owe her anything.

“Why now, then?” she asked, curious.

“Don’t you already know the answer to your question?” he retorted.

Why was this man so hateful? Her delicate brows frowned. It seems that other than his appearance,

there is truly nothing good about this tyrant.

After his proposal, she was quick to do her research and found out that the Beaumont Empire was

currently very chaotic. Just a while ago, Alexander kicked his own father from the board and claimed

the chairman position. This, of course, met a few raised eyebrows from the older generation.

To stabilize his position, he needed someone like her.

She glared at his smiling face before she lowered her gaze and read the agreement for the second

time. There are rules in this marriage that she expected such as cohabitation, signing a prenuptial, and

keeping this marriage a secret until both of them are ready to reveal it.

However, she never expected the first clause.

Physical intimacy is permitted, but consent is a must. Consent was highlighted; it was emphasized.

To be honest, she never thought about this clause at all. Despite being together for years, Daniel and

she still lived in separate flats. While he wanted to move in together a long time ago, Sofia found it

rather hard to balance being with him in the same house and working with her designs. She thought

being so near him would be a distraction.

Luckily, Daniel did not force her to do so. She thought this was because he always travels for his job.

Now, she was suspecting this was because of

Right now, she was forced to face something that she initially dismissed as a mere formality. Sofia

simply thought that this was nothing but a marriage on paper. However, now that she had the time to sit

down and carefully analyze the situation, she realized a few things.

Both of them are adults, so it should not be an issue for them to talk about intimacy. She lifted her gaze

and stared at him. He was wearing a perennial black suit- as always. His hair was brushed up, making

him. look more mature than his age. His tall legs were crossed, only adding to the elegant yet subtly

intimidating feeling that he was giving her- and everyone else.

“Satisfied?” he asked with that infuriating playful smirk.

Almost immediately, her gaze turned sharp. She could feel the embarrassment of being caught settled

in her gut. Was she praising this. devil inside her head? Was she damn blushing? She should not be!

“I appreciate your thoroughness about this matter,” she voiced out, trying to maintain the calmness in

her voice.

“Hmmm…” he nodded.

Once again, silence and the smell of freshly brewed coffee filled the room.

“Let’s do it,” Sofia said after a few minutes of silence.

His lips lifted into a smile as he watched Sofia sign the agreement.

“It seems that the timing is perfect. The officiant is here,” he mused.

“Officiant?”

“Are we not saying our vows?”

In the end, everything happened just as he wanted. With two witnesses, they were able to sign a

marriage contract, and just like that, the wedding was done.

She was now a married woman.

After everything, Sofia felt a little dizzy. She had dreamed of a grand wedding. She wanted to walk

down the aisle with her stepfather and see the crying groom at the end of the red carpet. What

happened just now was the exact opposite.

This time, she was unable to stop herself from laughing a burst of self- deprecating laughter. The

whirlwind nature of their marriage echoed in the back of her mind, both a bewildering mistake and an

oddly right decision.

“You are certain you wanted to go to my house to celebrate?” Alexander’s question brought her out of

her stupor. She met his gaze, her green eyes sparkling with newfound confidence.

“Is there a problem with going to my new husband’s house?” she countered with a mischievous smirk

playing on her pink lips.

“You just had two glasses of wine,” he said matter–of–factly. His scrutiny did not escape her notice as

his sharp brown eyes examined her

appearance.

“I can handle myself very well, Mr. Beaumont. You should stop underestimating your wife.”

“Wife…” he smirked. The corner of his lips lifted in a smirk as he

shamelessly allowed his gaze to travel down her form, lingering on the crisp lines of her black pencil

skirt that tastefully hugged her curves. “I like the sound of that.”

“Satisfied?” she repeated the words that he asked her earlier.
