After a long day at the office, I finally made it home, only to be interrupted by the doorbell ringing. Trusting my staff to handle it, I headed upstairs to unwind.
Despite the possibility of a visitor waiting downstairs, I indulged in a leisurely shower, taking my time to relax. Once refreshed and changed into something more comfortable, I descended the stairs to investigate the earlier disturbance.
Upon entering the living room, I was inet with a surprising siglu an array of suitcases scattered about. There was no need to inquire about their owner, as the familiar voices of Stephanie and my mother drifted from the kitchen.
As if coordinated, they emerged from the kitchen, each carrying a bottle of water. Stephanie's face lit up with a wide smile upon seeing me. "Hello, husband," she greeted warmly.
Hearing Stephanie refer to me as "husband" made me inwardly cringe. "What are both of you doing here?" I questioned, disreganding her greeting and gesturing to the scattered boxes around. "and what's with the ridiculous boxes everywhere?"

My mother turned her gaze towards me, likely intending to repeat her question which she just directed to Stephanie, but a sharp glare from me silenced her. "I will have my lawyer draw up a prenuptial agreement, I declared firmly
Stephanie raised an eyebrow in response. "We're signing that?" she questioned incredulously. When I didn't immediately respond, she scoffed. "Do you honestly believe that I'm after your money?" "I wouldn't put it past you," I retorted tersely.
My mother, sensing the tension, finally voiced her concerns. "Why are you only having a legal wedding, Ryan?"
I met Stephanie's gaze. "Do you want to pretend that you don't know I don't want to make her my wife?" I replied coldly, then turned away, heading towards the bar. "On your way out, take all these boxes with you, I added, dismissing them both with a wave of my hand.
