MARRIAGE CONTRACTS

AUTHOR POV

Last night Adrian did not sleep thinking of advice from Ray to marry Nadine. Logically, what Ray said made sense. That's why Adrian is restless. Amid the time constraints they have, they are required to move quickly. So marrying Nadine is the best choice right now.

But for Adrian it is not easy. If she marries Nadine, she feels she has broken her own vow of being single for the rest of her life.

Now Adrian is sitting in the living room with Nadine and Ray. Not a single word came out of their mouths. In fact, the warmth of the morning sun does not create warmth in the room. The atmosphere was more towards gripping due to Adrian's cold demeanor and sharp gaze which the words could not explain.

"I don't want to beat Nadine. The three of us gathered here to discuss your father's will."

"Have you found Adrian's solution?"

"It."

"What's that?"

"I'll marry you."

DEGGH!!!!!

Nadine's heart beat like a war drum. His body was limp and both knees were limp for a moment. The solution given by Adrian was not at all in accordance with his expectations.

"What do you mean?" nadine's eyes stared at Adrian.

"I'm not going to do it again Nadine. What I said was clear. I will marry you!!" adrian resolute.

Nadine shook her head and laughed mockingly as if she could not believe what she had just heard.

"You want to marry me, just because of a will?" tears came from Nadine's cheeks.

"The two of us are just strangers who've known each other for about a week. Then you want to ask me to get married all of a sudden?" nadine's emotions began to ignite.

"There's no other choice. Terms to get the flash, you are required to get married. The time we have is limited. The faster we get the flash, the faster Galih can be snuggled.before he is out of range" explained Adrian.

"What makes you confident that I want to marry you?! And of the many male populations that exist.Why should you marry me?"

Adrian's two hands clenched tightly and his jaw hardened. As much as possible he held back his emotions that were almost at the top of the crown. Indirectly, the word Nadine just now is a form of a rejection. Adrian felt his pride stifled.

"We are both single. If you had a partner, without further ado I would definitely let you marry a man of your own choice. But since you're not in a relationship with anyone right now, there's no harm."

"Ray already has a lover. Finding an established man who wants to marry you in the near future is also impossible. So like it or not, the last option you have is to marry me!!"

Nadine massaged her temples. "Is there no other way?"

"Unfortunately that's all I can offer. After all, this marriage is only a contract marriage."

"Contract marriage? This contract is Adrian?! You consider marriage a toy?!!"

"I can't possibly lock you up forever in the bonds of marriage. That's why I offered you a contract marriage. When Galih's been arrested, then all the business is done and we can get divorced afterwards."

"Have you prepared the marriage contract?"

"Ray made it. But it can still be revised. I suggest you read the contract first. If there is a point that makes you displeased, you can tell me to consider."

Yesterday night after Ray arrived at this house, Adrian immediately ordered himself to make a letter of agreement as well as a marriage contract. Without having time to rest, Ray was forced to work overtime to work on it in order to obey his favorite boss.

Ray himself was quite stunned when Adrian wanted to hear his advice. Though the intention of Ray's heart is just a try and reward. Because, for years he worked with Adrian.bosnya it would be immediately angry and sensitive if he heard the words marriage.

"If we really do this marriage, it means we will marry without a basis of love. Then, what kind of household are we going to live Adrian?"

Questions raised by Nadine could not be answered by Adrian.

Now they switch places from the living room to the dining table, because the higher table will make it easier for Adrian and Nadine to do the writing or signing thing.

The marriage contract agreement that Ray had made last night had been presented to Nadine. For 15 minutes, Nadine read the contract. He wants to make sure that all the points in it are not missed to be understood.

Adrian scrunched his forehead. "Why?"

"I want our marriage contract to run for 2 years" Nadine said.

Adrian tapped his fingers on the table. "2 years is too long! After the flash is obtained, I have goals and target Galih arrest can be completed in less than 4 months. If you succeed, you can be freed from this contract marriage."

"Then what about my future? Surely after we split up, I will continue with the new life, right? Then what would my future husband say if I divorced after 4 months of marriage? There will be a bad assumption about me. Society is full of misogyny (a society full of misogyny)."

When a woman becomes a widow because her new marriage is over, society will discriminate against the gender of women. They will be looked down upon, hated, and cornered. Unlike the men who can still freely breech spoiled. Nadine doesn't want that to happen, so 2 years is the right offer.

"In addition, you are too confident to be able to catch Galih in just 4 months, could the plan not match expectations? So that 2 years was right!!" nadine said in a landslide.

"A sensible suggestion.But 2 years is a long time, 1 year?!" adrian Tawal.

Nadine shook her head. Like it or not, this contract marriage should run for 2 years.

Adrian breathed for a moment. "Okay I'll change it. Continue!"

"And again, it says here that you will support me financially?" continued Nadine.

"Yes. As long as you are my wife, all your living expenses and needs will be my responsibility. Although I am not a rich man, but I can afford to suffice you."

"Am I allowed to work?"

"No. The situation is not conducive, considering that a few days ago there was an attempted kidnapping and terror against you."

"When do I need entertainment? I can't possibly stay locked up here for 2 years!!"

"You alone want this contract marriage to run 2 years, I have offered to shorten the time but you refused" Adrian smiled mockingly.

"Listen Adrian, from the beginning I saw absolutely no benefit from my side if I agreed to the marriage of this contract. So you should, as much as possible, make me comfortable as long as this contract goes."

Nadine is a stubborn woman. He won't let go of this easily.

"I'll allow you to go or go for a walk but with a note, there's a time limit I'll set."

Adrian thought, it doesn't matter if Nadine travels out for a while to get some fresh air. But to work, the answer is still no. If Nadine works for an agency, it is likely that her data submitted to the company or office can be detected by the enemy.

Nadine snorted bitterly and felt dissatisfied. "You're a dictator!!"

Adrian doesn't care about Nadine's innuendo. He continued to sip a cup of coffee in his hand while waiting for Nadine to read the contract to completion.

"We go on again!" Nadine flipped through the contract sheet while playing her ballpoint pen. "For points 6 and 7 I don't mind, but what does this 8 mean? Can't love each other?" ask Nadine again.

"Yes, as we know. This marriage is just a business contract. Do not let us mix our feelings or personal affairs into it. I'll respect your privacy, and vice versa."

"We also do not need to have a proper husband-wife relationship. You marry just because of status. I do not want to complicate matters, if one day you are pregnant and others. The existence of a child will only be an obstacle" continued Adrian.

Shocked is the right word to describe Nadine's current feelings. Adrian's statement just seemed to confirm the fact that marriage is just a game for Adrian. But what can be done, he is indeed an apathetic man.

But in fact Nadine also strongly agreed to 8 points in this contract. She does not want to have sex with a man who does not really love her even though Adrian is already legally her husband later. Moreover, this marriage will run aground after 2 years. It is impossible for the crown to be handed over to just anyone.

The marriage contract was between Adrian and Nadine. After one thing or another can be agreed together, they both immediately signed the contract on stamp duty together. It was witnessed by Ray.

Ray just silently stood in a corner without even huddling about the content of the marriage contract between Adrian and Nadine at the hot table. For Ray, both of them definitely need privacy because they are both getting married.

"Tomorrow morning we'll take care of the wedding documents. And then we can get married. I won't put it off again."

"Agreed."

They both shake hands as a sign that the agreement they make is real and done on the basis of full awareness from both sides.

Although anxiety struck Nadine's heart, she chose to continue this all. Not knowing right or wrong, but clearly Nadine also wants to take part in ensnaring Galih and avenge the death of her father. Galih must be punished for his crimes. And the flash is what will lead them to the bright spot...
