Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 146

"Mr. Martinez, can you give me a few days to think about it?" Cecilia pleaded.

Owen chuckled bitterly, "It's not that I don't want to give you time, but my grandpa won't allow it. He demands that we get the marriage license tomorrow."

Cecilia sighed in resignation, "He's really pushing too hard."

She guessed that this might be because Ruby's detention was about to end.

Once Ruby got out and found out Owen was already married, she would definitely lose it.

After thinking of this, Cecilia felt slightly less resistant to the idea of a fake marriage with Owen.

After all, Owen wouldn't fall for her, and she was well aware of her situation. She didn't expect Owen's love.

Once they get the marriage license, they'll be a secretly married couple living separate lives. After Trenton passed away, she could regain her freedom and receive a hefty compensation.

"Mr. Martinez, I know you've helped me in the past, and now that you're asking me to do this, I can't refuse you. But for our future, we should sign an agreement to avoid any disputes." She proposed. Owen asked her, "So, you're in?"

"Do I have a choice? You said it yourself; it's my way of repaying you. I sought your help; now it's my turn to return the favor."

Owen praised her, "You're a good person; you keep your word. Lucinda is lucky to have a friend like you."

In another perspective, she was in this mess because of Lucinda, but Owen didn't voice this out.

In the end, it was not Lucinda who got Cecilia into this, but Cecilia's own kindness that led her to seek Owen's help, hence the need to repay him.

Owen quickly drafted an agreement on his computer and printed out two copies.


He handed a copy to Cecilia, "See if there's anything you want to add."

Cecilia found this situation familiar.
