CHECKMATE

Treaty

Amanda did not get out of bed this morning. This is not a weekend or a red date. He still wants to enjoy the morning with laziness. He entrusted it to his best friend Ella. The girl almost fell asleep again, when Bastian banged on her bedroom door.

"Oh shit," he murmured. Then he lazily got out of bed. She opened the door and found her husband with a face that was difficult to guess

"How dare you interrupt my morning jerk," said Amanda angrily

"Don't ask too many questions, come with me." Bastian chimed in while forcibly pulling Amanda from behind his bedroom door.

"Get your hand off, I'm not an animal so you have to drag me," Amanda said, shaking Bastian's hand from his wrist. The man did not care, he dragged Amanda to the living room sofa. He threw an empty paper on the table.

"What is this, you're crazy huh. I told him to read this blank paper. You're so stressed," said Amanda laughing at her husband's behavior this morning

"Heh stupid, you don't have a brain huh. Who told you to read blank paper. You really are a cheap woman, your head is just money and money, right?" bastian grinned with a sneer

"Ck did you forget what I said last night. Dare you talk rudely with your mouth, I'll rip it off with my hand" Amanda said.

"Now tell me what you want. I don't have time to deal with people like you" he said

"I want us to make a deal, black on white. I don't want this wedding. I've never been interested in marrying a cheap woman like you. I want this wedding for only one year"

"In that year, I'll give you a chance to take as much money as you want. Isn't your purpose in marrying me because of money? Then please do," said Bastian cocky

"One more thing, I'm warning you. Never take care of my personal affairs, because you have no rights in them," added bastian full of emphasis.

"Hah hahahahah, you seem a little less clever Mr. Bastian. I have warned you many times, be careful with your mouth. You can lose everything you've got" Amanda said, wiping Bastian's lips.

She stared intently, highlighting the eyes of the man who had become her husband.

"I don't need this letter of agreement. I don't need a cent of your money either. Let's just say we don't know each other,"

"Just do what you want, I don't care. Managing your life is like a waste of time to me"

The words were so beautiful from Amanda's lips. But it pierced deep into Bastian's heart. He never thought his wife would dare to speak so loudly.

"And what's he saying he doesn't need my money? Who he really is, "inner Bastian

"Good fun in the hell you made Mr. Bastian. It's just the beginning of our game" he said again and then passed leaving Bastian alone

***

Amanda was eager to continue her sleep. But suddenly his phone rang, the name Ella appeared. He swiped the green button, nodding the call

"What's wrong Ella, you've been bothering me so early in the morning" Amanda yelled. Ella chuckled across

"Sorry messing up your newlyweds morning. You seem to be enjoying your time so much that you don't want to be disturbed" Ella said with a laugh

"Shut your mouth, Ella, that's not very funny,"

"I'm sorry Miss, but there's something important I have to tell you. You should go to the office today. The leader of the Senada Group company wants to meet you, discuss the company's cooperation that was delayed last month," explained Ella.

"Oh shit, I don't want to see anyone today. Just tell him I'm out of Ella's town. Just next week,"

"Can't Manda, he's waiting for you. It even arrived an hour ago,"

"Ah asshole. All right have people pick me up in thirty minutes. I'll get ready. I'll send you the address" Amanda said, then hung up on the call
