are no issues, we can sign them in front of the lawyer.

After consulting with her lawyer, Sophia drafted two agreements under his guidance. She then sent them to Zephyr for review, accompanied by a message: Your previous suggestion made some sense, so I agreed. Please take a look at these two agreements, and if there Zephyr only replied to her roughly ten minutes later. There's something I need to discuss. Are you free now? I'd like to talk to you in person.

Sophia paused for a moment. Why don't you come to the café near my residential area then? Just call me when you're almost there.

Zephyr: Okay.

Twenty minutes later, Sophia arrived at the café. She looked around and, seeing that Zephyr hadn't arrived yet, she found a spot in the corner and sat down.

In less than two minutes, a refined gentleman appeared at the café entrance. He was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, giving off an air of elegance and erudition.

He came to a halt, briefly scanning the expanse of the premises. His gaze landed on Sophia's figure. With a purposeful stride, he headed directly toward her, smoothly pulling out the chair opposite her to sit down.

"You're here. Have you looked over the agreement? Feel free to raise any concerns," Sophia said.

Of course, she might not necessarily agree.

Seeing Sophia cut to the chase, Zephyr responded, "In that case, I'll get straight to the point. My first question is, what does it mean in the agreement where it says we need to act like a loving couple?" Isn't it supposed to be a contract marriage?

"The idea is that we won't get a marriage certificate, but just hold the wedding ceremony. If necessary, we could fabricate a fake one."

Zephyr fell silent.

No wonder there's a second agreement concerning the distribution of wealth. Who gave her this idea?

He silently observed Sophia for a few seconds with a serious expression, then disagreed, "This could easily give us away."

"No, once we've held our wedding, will anyone really fuss over whether we have a marriage certificate? After all, a contract marriage ultimately ends in divorce, whether with a certificate or not." Sophia arched an eyebrow, her gaze lingering on Zephyr, who seemed to be at a loss for words. Her expression was one of amusement, yet not quite. "Or are you planning to tear up the agreement after the divorce, blurring the lines between reality and pretense? If that's the case, I don't see the need to continue this conversation."

"All right. Onto the next question." With a resigned sigh, Zephyr lowered his gaze, giving in. "While we're playing husband and wife, the man isn't allowed to casually enter the woman's bedroom off-stage, meaning we have to sleep in separate rooms, right?" "Yes. All we need is to show affection in public. There's no need to pretend when we're alone."

"But what if your parents find out?"

He figured that even if they were to live on their own after they got married, there was no way Evelyn wouldn't visit their house at least once.

After some thought, Sophia confidently and naturally suggested, "That's easy to manage. You can sleep in the guest room. Every morning when you wake up, just tidy up your bedding. As for toiletries and such, prepare two sets. Keep one set in the bedroom in case my mom decides to make a surprise inspection, and the other set in the common bathroom. Just put them away after you're done using them."
