"Until I finally see your face, my dear!" Vivian hissed sarcastically, leaving the door of her apartment open for Edan to enter."I was very busy. He murmured.Edan walked in and closed the door, immediately began to loosen his tie, preparing for a passionate reconciliation. Of course, after he had calmed Vivian's bad mood.That was the norm in their relationship."Did you get what I sent?" Edan asked, in the middle of the room, noticing that Vivian didn't turn to look at his face."Are you talking about those ridiculous flowers and cheap chocolates? She growled, pointing to a table in the corner, where the gifts were still intact, the flowers beginning to wither, for they had not been put in water. "Do you think you can buy me off with that crap?"Vivian, I told you; my father was hospitalized..." She turned, snorting. "He's in a very serious condition.Edan had called Vivian several times to tell her about her father's unfortunate situation, but about marriage and about Alma, she ha
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 11 – Peace Offering
Edan didn't want to make a new insult to Alma, he still felt guilty for how he spoke to her that same morning, that's why he left quickly, trying to control himself, although inside, he felt betrayed.With the fact that she talked about her contract, no matter who it was and whoever it was, he felt it was a violation of his trust.Besides, there was his inappropriate approach to that man, that simple Doctor, on top of all that, it was driving him crazy.Ever since Edan met her, he thought she was an honest, innocent, and kind young woman. Now, I didn't know what to believe about Alma."Edan, wait! He felt someone tugging at the sleeve of his jacket and turned around, still frowning. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean for anyone to find out, I understand the nondisclosure agreement and I know I failed, but I had to tell my mother the truth and Mateo listened..." Edan looked up at the young woman, his frown diminished, although his eyes still seemed somewhat dull. Alma, on the other hand, loo
Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 12 — A Miracle

Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 13 – Empathic
Alma went back to the hospital, with the check that had just been given to her in her hands, she kept looking at him as tears streamed down her face.Why did the problems keep coming? Why did it all pile up? Why did he feel that everything was against him?"Enough of crying," she said to herself as she stood in front of the hospital, covered her red face a little with some makeup, and left, determined, to her mother's room.Everything changed as soon as he entered and saw her smiling faintly, at that moment he knew that it was all worth it and that, as long as they were alive, there was hope.But by that same afternoon, another unsettling thought was coming to her: Why didn't Edan show up?He was supposed to pick her up to visit her father, which was part of the contract and it was part of the show.As the hours passed, Alma began to worry.

Shall we get Married? It's a Deal! Chapter 14 – The Supper
The news of Edan's father's surgery was a pleasant surprise, however, Alma couldn't get it out of her head that it would change things a lot.The contract was supposed to cover a short period of time, a maximum of one month, which was the maximum life that Mr. O'Connor was given, but now that he had had the heart transplant, what would happen?For the time being, Edan explained that everything would remain the same, only now, they would visit Mr. O'Connor at the clinic, but that did not convince Alma at all.However, he had no choice but to hold up his end of the bargain to at least secure his mother's treatment.And since the contract also stipulated accompanying him to some extra activities, such as family gatherings, Alma couldn't refute much when Edan informed her about the upcoming family dinner.*Edan's apartment turned out to be impressive, the living room alone being about the size of Alma's house.Decorated with a modern and simple design, typical of a single man, it also ha

Angelica's voice sounded loud.“Edan! I'm talking to you..." He turned around with a little start, and his mother looked at him contemptuously. "I was telling you that, before we go, I must give you something..."Edan turned to his mother, who was digging into her handbag. And while Alma seemed very focused on her talk with Ethan, she also kept a small part of her attention on Edan and his mother.Finally, Angelica took out a sealed envelope, which she placed in Edan's hands."Before I went into surgery, your father asked me to prepare this for you..." Edan looked at the envelope in his hands, confused. "He told me that no matter the outcome of his surgery, I should give you this from us and you should accept it..." It's a small detail because of their marriage, something small because of the circumstances. Edan opened the small envelope and before he could finish taking out what was inside, his mother finished. “ It's a trip for you, to a resort on the Island of Q, with everything pa

“What?“We can add it as an extra job.“No! You told me you'd figure it out."I know and I'm sorry, but I haven't found a way..." Edan sighed in frustration. "I can't just turn it down, it's the gift my father left us on his deathbed."And do you think money will solve it?"Edan didn't understand the question, Why did she have to make this complicated? Was it a job, or not? Just like the one Alma had been doing so far pretending to be his wife and surely, the extra money wouldn't hurt.“What's the matter? We'll leave on Saturday, simulate a bit for the photos and come back on Sunday, it's not a big deal."What isn't?" I can't just leave, what about my brothers? And my mother?"That's easy, I'll take your mother to a clinic and we'll leave her with a personal nurse, as we had already arranged, your brothers, we'll leave them with the nanny, like on dinner day, was there a problem with her?""No, but that's not...""Please, Alma... It's a resort, it will serve you to rest and you'll ear

Everything was ready, the ambulance had arrived, the only thing they were waiting for to leave the hospital and transfer Luz Rivas to a prestigious clinic, was for Alma, who was taking longer than expected, to say goodbye to her friend."Why are you taking her?" Here we have taken good care of her, I have been keeping an eye on her personally and in a short time, she will be discharged. Matthew muttered in a desperate tone."I know, I know, I'm sorry..." And I thank you very much, but..." Alma muttered with some sorrow.“But? Mateo asked, changing his countenance, looking serious.“Matthew. Alma sighed deeply. "First of all, I must think of my mother's well-being..." And my family.Matthew felt his heart sink, he knew, he was sure, that everything Alma did and all the decisions he made, he did it out of necessity alone, in order for his family to be well.Without considering their own well-being."I'm worried—" Mateo began, glancing sideways at Edan, who was scowling at them from a di
