"Mom, I'm just an ordinary woman. While Arthur is a famous person. How can I marry him? What will people think?"

These were some of Milly's worries among the many fears she had about becoming the wife of a famous businessman like Arthur.

Agnes smiled as she gently rubbed her daughter's head.

"I know your worries, Milly. But, you must be sure that Arthur and his family will not let you suffer because of the bad people out there. I'm also sure that Arthur's family will treat you very well. Your job is to be a good wife, an obedient daughter-in-law and a loving mother. I'm sure that will make you happy."

Milly was silent. Her mother's words were true, but difficult to do. Maybe if she became an obedient daughter-in-law and a loving mother, Milly could try. But being a good wife? That couldn't happen. Her mother would never know, this marriage would only last as long as she carried her child.

"Already, don't think weird. You have to be happy, including your child."

    "What, honeymoon, ma'am?"Rebecca chuckled at the nickname mentioned by Milly."Call me Mother, not Madam. You'll be my daughter-in-law, Milly."The woman looked awkward about changing her nickname. However, she did what Rebecca told her to do."Okay, Mother.""Good. So, where do you want to go on your honeymoon? I'll grant you that. Think of it as me pleasing my future grandchild in the womb."Milly was silent. Seeing Rebecca's enthusiastic face, she remembered Arthur's words. It was true, this middle-aged woman wanted a grandchild so badly, it was like this."Milly?""Ah, yes, ma'am?""Why are you daydreaming? Is there something wrong?"Milly immediately shook her head. "No, ma'am. I... I was just thinking, there's no need for a honeymoon.""Why?""I'm pregnant, my mom's sick. Plus Arthur must be busy with his work. So, it's better here. I'd rather be here."Rebecca was silent. This was in stark contrast to Agatha who was always pulling for Arthur. Indeed, Milly was a good daughter-

  • Marriage Agreement   Chapter 12 Arthur's Warning

    Arthur walked slowly, but his gaze was terrifying. Like an animal ready to pounce on its enemy."Don't pretend, Agatha! Tell me, what did you do to Milly?"Hearing Milly's name mentioned, the woman's body jerked. The feeling of hatred came back."What happened to her? Did she tell you something bad? You should know, I've known you longer than Milly.""Longer acquaintance does not guarantee knowing her true nature, Agatha. I'm grateful that with recent events, I've been able to find out what you're like."Agatha was getting more and more confused with the direction of the man's conversation. Just as she was about to speak up, Arthur suddenly showed her the video on his cell phone.Agatha's face immediately paled. Apparently, this was about her fight with Milly the other day. She thought Arthur would take her side. But why did Agatha think it would end in a fight?"You really are a shameful woman, Agatha! In a public place, you humiliated Milly whom you had framed. Then, what else are y

    "What's wrong with Agatha? Is she bothering Milly?" asked Rebecca when she heard her son threaten Agatha.Arthur immediately shook his head. It was a good thing that he had ordered people to remove the video from various websites, including removing the account that first spread the video. Otherwise, Rebecca might have seen what happened to Milly by now."No, mom. I'm just afraid she's done something bad to Milly."Unfortunately, Agatha didn't take her word for it. She even searched her son's face."You're not lying, are you?""Oh my God, Mom. Why would I lie? I mean it."Rebecca let out a long breath. "All right. Don't lie to me, Arthur. Remember, my earlier conditions still apply.""What?!"Arthur had lost track of their conversation. This was costing him dearly. While he and Milly would be divorced if their child was born, how could that be?"Mom, is that too much?""Outrageous? Oh, no, Arthur. It's only fair, for my grandson's sake too."Arthur clucked loudly. He walked over and s

    "Good afternoon, Miss Milly.""Afternoon? Who, huh?"The woman gave the two men in suits a wary look, fearing that they were bad people."We are Lord Arthur's messengers. We're going to fetch Miss.""Huh?"The fear instantly turned into shock. Who would have thought that Arthur would send two messengers who were mistaken for criminals."Arthur? Are you sure? Or are you trying to trick me?"Milly couldn't believe it. Especially considering that Arthur was a businessman who probably had a lot of enemies."Of course, Miss. Are you not sure about us?" one of them asked.Milly scanned their looks with a probing gaze. Then, she shook her head slowly.The two people dressed all in black looked at each other for a moment, then someone made a call. It didn't take long for the person to hand Milly her cell phone.She was confused at first, but immediately put the phone to her ear."Hello?""Come with them. We meet in ten minutes."That was Arthur's voice. The man didn't even give her a chance t

    The boutique owner and Milly went back inside. I don't know how many times she'd changed wedding dresses, but none of them had been chosen by Arthur. The boutique owner was confused, because he thought Milly was very beautiful. In fact, she looked like an angel descending from the sky if she wore all the dresses he had chosen.Actually, Arthur was of the same opinion. However, he didn't like seeing Milly looking beautiful like that. Moreover, his heart beat very fast when he saw Milly's beauty.It was good that she looked ordinary. All for the sake of Arthur's brain and heart."Sorry, sir. This is already the 10th dress. Isn't there anything suitable for Miss Milly? I think--""Change!" exclaimed Arthur, interrupting the man.The boutique owner was confused. He was about to speak up, but was immediately interrupted by Arthur."Find a normal dress. No need to be fancy and pretty! I want her to look ordinary.""What?!"The boutique owner and Milly were shocked to hear that. They even lo

    "Aw! What are you doing? Why are you hitting me all of a sudden?!" exclaimed Arthur suddenly, as Rebecca hit him on the shoulder. Arthur rubbed the marks from his mother's punch. Meanwhile, the doctor who saw it also seemed to be silent. Wanting to laugh is also afraid of becoming a big problem."How could I not hit you? What are you doing to my daughter-in-law, huh?!" exclaimed Rebecca. Even though Milly was not yet a daughter-in-law, Rebecca had already said that. "What did I do?" asked Arthur not feeling guilty. AlreadyObviously because of that man, Milly was exhausted and almost had a miscarriage. "I've heard everything. You forced her to change her dress many times, didn't you? Until she was exhausted. Didn't you think about the safety of the child in the womb?!" Rebecca snapped in front of the doctor and nurse, leaving Arthur speechless and looking down. This was really embarrassing. The man's face turned red. For the first time Arthur was yelled at by his mother in public.

    "I don't know, ma'am. I actually don't know Arthur very well either. Because he was Agatha's boyfriend before, so I really still can't recognize his true nature," said Milly, finally choosing to say something like that.She didn't want to give Rebecca such high hopes, fearing that the middle-aged woman would feel disappointed if the results weren't what she wanted.Rebecca smiled faintly, stroking Milly's arm. "You'll eventually get to know his true nature. Yes, it may not be entirely good, but if he loves you that much, then Arthur would really do anything for you. He will even obey you," the middle-aged woman said, making Milly smile stiffly.How could that man possibly love her? Even now Milly had to prepare to lose everything, including the child in her womb. Just thinking about it made Milly feel sick, it would be more agonizing than parting ways with a partner. Because her child lived in the womb for several months. "That's it, you don't think about anything. Now rest. As for

    "Are you crazy?! You think I'm a guy who pranks pregnant women? No." "Then tell me. Come up with a clearer reason why you're making me suffer by changing dresses? Our marriage is private anyway. It doesn't matter if I wear any dress," said Milly, annoyed. Because Arthur didn't give a clear reason. She just wanted to know what this man was thinking, to make him exhausted. Even though it was clear that there was a child in Milly's womb, Arthur was making stupid things like this.The man was silent, giving Milly a long look. How could he be honest, his pride would collapse if he knew about the truth. "You don't need to know, I'm doing this for our own good." "What? Don't be ridiculous! I know from Agatha that you're a perfectionist, but didn't you torture me earlier?" asked Milly, making her silent. Hearing Agatha's name, her heart burned. True, he was usually a perfectionist. Even when he was with Agatha, Arthur would give her a very beautiful dress, intentionally to look charming

    For some reason now Milly felt that Arthur was looking for her faults. The look on the man's face suddenly changed, making Milly wonder if maybe this was because of his rejection of the marriage agreement that the man wanted to change? But she didn't want to impose her will. She wanted to live life to her heart's desire, without coercion or agreements that made it difficult for her to move."Why are you silent? You ask me why I've changed and then you ignore me?" Arthur asked, making Milly gasp.The woman seemed to be pulled from her reverie. She cleared her throat and closed her eyes a few times. Trying to calm her heart and stay focused on the current conversation."Yes, that's right. Why are you keeping me quiet? Is it because of the marriage contract that I didn't agree to?" Milly asked, to the point.She didn't want to conjecture and stress her mind. This would be dangerous for the child in the womb."Actually, yes, but that's just one of the reasons why I chose to be silent whe

    Davinson seemed to think for a moment. He didn't know what Milly was like, but it seemed that he had other ideas in order to benefit more from the plan Agatha had given him. "How about it, huh? I actually don't like cute girls. We don't know each other yet anyway. Do you think I'll like her?" asked Davinson fishing for honesty from Agatha.He wanted to know if it was true that Milly was a better woman than Agatha and satisfying in bed. Because according to him, a cute woman is stiff and cannot be invited to play more wildly. Agatha let out a long sigh. She looked away for a moment, then looked back at the man with seriousness."I wouldn't be saying all this if it wasn't true. I assure you." Davinson did not immediately answer again. He thought for a moment, it was too disadvantageous for him if it turned out that he was not satisfied with Milly. Surely the man would feel at a loss, so he would ask for something else that could be doubly profitable. "How about if I get Milly, but y

  • Marriage Agreement   Chapter 36 New Allies

    Since the incident at the beach, Arthur has been silent. He was confused about what to say and what to do to the pregnant woman. Because for him, whatever he did must be meaningless in Milly's eyes. More precisely useless, because Milly did not feel flattered or carried away by what Arthur did.Either he had the wrong strategy or Milly didn't have any feelings for Arthur, until the woman didn't care at all about whatever the man had been fighting for.Later that evening, Arthur took Milly to dinner at a fancy restaurant. This time he wouldn't tell her anything about the contract. It might take a while for Milly to answer all of Arthur's requests. His job here now was to make her comfortable and not let Mike see her mistreat Milly. If that happened, then Rebecca would be back to calling him and terrorizing him with all kinds of questions and threats. The food was already available. Even now Arthur was cutting the steak that was already available. "No need, Arthur. I can cut it mysel

  • Marriage Agreement   Chapter 35 Sunset

    It was getting late, but Arthur and Milly didn't move from the beach. The pregnant woman asked to sit and watch the sunset, as she thought it was a rare moment. It was the first time Milly had ever seen a sunset.All this time she had only done her job to earn money, not caring about vacations and rest. For her, traveling was a taboo, she didn't know when she could do it. Even if there is, she will participate in some tourism works, it must be with the extra money she collects.Now, she didn't expect to be able to see the sunset this close, coupled with being pregnant. Milly really didn't expect her fate to be like this. She felt guilty to Agatha for having to marry Arthur, but right now Milly had to be selfish for the sake of the child in her womb, hoping that Agatha would not take revenge on her for what happened today. Arthur kept looking at Milly who was staring straight ahead, especially when she suddenly smiled while looking at the sunset. It was a very beautiful sight. In Art

  • Marriage Agreement   Chapter 34 Rebecca's Ultimatum

    In her heart Agatha actually wanted to curse at Rebecca, but considering that here was the middle-aged woman's house plus Rebecca was also Raka's mother, then she did not dare to say harsh things. She would really be shunned and possibly thrown in jail for unpleasant behavior. It was just how she explained to Rebecca that her presence was only to meet with Arthur, especially since she could not let go of the man just yet. "It's not like that, ma'am. I came here to see Arthur. I will explain everything.""What are you going to explain to my son? What do you mean, are you tricking your own friend into sleeping with my son or are you materialistic and expecting to inherit from this family? Which one is true?" The question was correct. Rebecca had made Agatha's pride suffer. But again the woman could do nothing but explain that she was not as bad as she thought."No, no. Madam is wrong to think that way. I did make a mistake, but I truly regret it. I want to explain everything to Arthu

    "I can't make a decision right now. But if it's for the good of the child, I will try until the baby is born," Milly said, giving an answer that really made Arthur hesitate. She should have just complied with Arthur's wishes, instead of doing something like that. It left the man confused and he had to find another way to get Milly to follow his wishes.Now Arthur had to calm himself down and try to get Milly to trust him again. "Alright then, I'll wait for your answer. Now how about we go for a walk?" Arthur asked trying to please Milly, preferably so that Mike could see that he was treating her very well. So that the phone wouldn't keep ringing and interrogating him. Rebecca was meddling in the household affairs of he and Milly for so long. Arthur could also be unsettled by all this. "I'm afraid I'm exhausted.""No problem, we'll rent a car. I can arrange everything," Arthur said, as if emphasizing that he would still take Milly out even if she gave 1000 refusals. Milly could on

  • Marriage Agreement   Chapter 32 The Reason

    Milly looked at Arthur with a flat stare. She didn't believe it at all. Although Arthur had been loyal to Agatha all this time, but not necessarily to her. Because this marriage was not the wish of either of them, except for the circumstances and Rebecca's request. "You need time to convince me. Right now I can't think clearly. I hope you don't make the same mistake again, Arthur," said the woman and chose to sit on the bed and return the bag underneath. For now Arthur was relieved that Milly could be persuaded. But in the future he had to be careful and try to convince her to stay married to him. Tell Arthur it's doubtful. But it's all for the greater good, especially for himself and the child when it's born. Rebecca will surely love her grandchild more than her own child. So, this was the main reason why Arthur had to take Rebecca's heart and keep all his possessions. "Do you want anything?" asked Arthur. He would try to persuade Milly to make up with him. If you stay angry wit

  • Marriage Agreement   Chapter 31 Let's Split Up The Room!

    While Milly was in the bathroom, Arthur was silent. He looked ahead with an uneasy feeling. There was resentment that he himself could not even control his lust. It was clear in the marriage contract that there was no touching. But it was Arthur who violated it all. All this was because of Rebecca's words that kept haunting him. He was afraid that his son would be like a victim of a broken home who lost his mother figure. Even if there was a babysitter or Rebecca who took care of him, it would definitely feel different if it was his own biological mother. He even thought that far, not wanting the next generation to be destroyed because of the lack of a mother's love. He really thought about it all in these few hours, until his head was filled with stressful things and even vented to Milly.But in the end, it all turned into a disaster like this. Milly wanted a separation, but of course he wouldn't do it. No matter what, Arthur had to keep Milly in the same house with him. He didn't

  • Marriage Agreement   Chapter 30 Fear of Repetition

    Milly continued to sob. She didn't realize that Arthur had woken up beside her. The man was at a loss as to what to do, he was wrong but not saying anything would be even more wrong. Mike might find out and report this incident to his mother. "Milly, I'm sorry."Suddenly Arthur said that, making Milly stop crying. She turned her head to the side with puffy eyes and an annoyed look, there was a look of restrained anger on Milly's face. But the woman didn't say anything, choosing to pull the blanket up and leave Arthur's presence. Milly chose to lock herself in the bathroom and continue crying. She didn't sob and remained silent with tears streaming down her face. This was a very painful event for Milly.At this rate, how will she be able to deal with Arthur? Then, will the marriage agreement continue when Arthur has violated the points listed? But if she left Arthur, what would happen to the baby? Arthur's side would definitely sue her, especially since the money given to Milly for
