Contract Marriage With The Disabled CEO

Chapter 5 The Wedding Rings

On Monday, Betty went to work at Filson Magazine and came to the finance department during the lunch break. It took her a lot of effort to get an advance on her salary.

After confirming her paycheck, Betty called Kerwin. The phone beeped.

“Hello.”

A deep, attractive voice came. For some unknown reason, Betty felt a little nervous.

“Mr. Martin, it’s me,” Betty said. “The other day in the restaurant, you paid the bill for me. It was $5,000. Could you tell me your bank account? I’ll wire you the money.”

The man on the other end was silent. Betty was wondering if he had forgotten about his ‘new wife’ when the cool, deep voice came again.

“You’ve kept it in mind?” he asked in an amused and helpless tone. “It’s okay.”

“I have to pay you back,” Betty insisted.

“We’re married and keeping careful accounts is unnecessary.”

He then hung up the phone without waiting for Betty’s response.
