A CEO's Revenge Marriage Accidentally in Love

Chapter 15

I think Hannah might be pissed at me. I’m not sure why, but our message conversation is… hinting at it.

Pixie Spaz: So we are married.

Me: Yes?

Me: But obviously, it’s a contract marriage. Those papers you filled in yesterday, remember those? They are for one solid year.

Pixie Spaz: I know, but… does this mean we aren’t allowed to date other people during this agreement? Me: Are you feeling lonely, Hannah? Even after our morning together? Wasn’t it enough?

Pixie Spaz: No, that’s not what I mean! I loved it. But I just want to know what we are to each other.

Me: Married friends with benefits. Nothing less, nothing more. Even though the media has been all over me since I remarried, I’m not interested in a relationship with a college student. People can believe what they want just as long as I don’t dirty my conscience.

Pixie Spaz: By being together with a younger woman?

Me: Yes, sleeping with you is bad enough.

Pixie Spaz: So wait… you’re okay having sex with me, but dating me is where you draw the line?

Me: You make it sound so douchey, but yes. That’s not a problem, right? You’re just attracted to me, not in love with me.
