She'd always been doing things she hadn't wanted to do for the sake of her family- be the mother to eight other children because her father couldn't cope with the loss of his wife, put her life on hold for the family business and keep the whole household afloat, and now she's expected to marry a guy and potentially have his children and be with him forever and yet again, no one has given her a choice.
Lenny Kelvin is still trying to come to grips with the tragic loss of his wife, seven months ago. Now with a job that needs most of his time and energy and two children that are motherless Lenny feels it's time he does something to make his life easier and give his babies someone to care for them.
But Lenny is about to realise that this girl walking into his life might be the one thing that can patch his broken heart and help him move on.
And Anna is about to realise that in order for her to be happy she has to stop hiding behind excuses and live to make herself happy and as finally make her choices.

The Bridal Agreement
COMPLETED ✔️(Editing Soon) "Marry me." I nearly spill my latte on the nicest dress I own. "Are you out of your mind?! We just met... plus I don't even like your face!" "It doesn't have to be real." I set my latte down and look at him. "No woman wants a fake marriage Mr. Mardell. Be less of a dumbass and find yourself a nice girl who'll kiss your ass even when you're ghosts." "Look, don't flatter yourself" he goes leaning back in his seat. "You just happen to fit the description I gave the press and my family. And I don't like your face either." I copy his move and lean back against my seat. "I'd rather slam my tongue in a car door, sir." The words hit him. "Good day... and good luck finding a brainless girl to marry you." I grab my purse and head towards the door. "$20,000 a week" he blurts out. I halt and whirl around. "What?" "I'll give you $20,000 every week for a month..." He walks out from behind his desk. "... if you agree to do this with me." $20,000 every week for an 'I do'? Which happens to be fake too? $80,000 in a month to play dress up for one of the youngest and richest CEO's in the world? "So what do you say?" His silky voice swims through my thoughts. "You wanna get hitched for some money? You know your family needs it." He just had to play the poor family card. "So do we have a deal? Or I should go on and keep making you lose your jobs before you even start?" He had a smirk on his face. God, I hate him! But that money could help us a whole lot. I glare at him and extend a hand towards him. "Deal." ✄--------------------------------------------------------- No one ever realizes the implications of messing around with the famous 'Always and Forever' promise until they're cornered with no escape... except the one through their own hell. Join Noelle and Keith as they embark on this intriguing adventure to find themselves and escape the threats. #1 in deceit - 17/06/2023 #1 in graduate -14/02/2023 ~AkoHoàn thành
