Chapter 10
Certainly, Alice was unaware of all these discussions and plans being made by the Kaur family.
At this moment, Alice was hesitant, thinking about whom she could hire with money if Daniel disagreed
with her plan.
To her surprise, Daniel gave her this response after the phone call. He said, “We can proceed with the
registration tomorrow. However, my family will probably be present.”
Alice was somewhat relieved. She said, “Thank you. If they are willing to come tomorrow, that would be
great. After all, marriage is a significant event.”
“Ben will probably need to stay in the hospital for three more days,” Daniel said. “After we collect our
marriage license…”
Before Daniel finished talking, Alice interrupted him.
“I have already prepaid three days of medical expenses, so you don’t have to worry about the money,”
Alice said. “Starting tomorrow, I will be filming on the set during the day, so when I’m not around,
please arrange for a caregiver to accompany Ben. You can stay at home with Aidy and Coco at night,
and I will stay in the hospital.”
Daniel was left speechless. “I wasn’t trying to ask you to pay when I spoke earlier,” he thought.
“I am an artist,” Alice said. “I’m currently in the rising stage of my career, so it is not convenient for me
to publicly disclose my marital status. So, during the six months we spend together, we will keep our
marriage a secret.
“If you need me to cooperate with public announcements on your side, I can make it public on your
Instagram account. I will be self-disciplined and avoid any scandals in the industry that could
embarrass you.
“As for you, I don’t have any specific requirements. Just please refrain from bringing other women
home and causing disturbances during our marriage, as it would affect my and the children’s well-
being.”
As William listened to his future sister-in-law clearly stating her arrangements for his brother, he was
left dumbfounded.
He thought, “It’s confirmed. My brother is a kept man.
“By the look of this future sister-in-law’s behavior, not only is she domineering, but she also gives
Daniel ample freedom!
“Grandpa, Grandma, the Kaur family is blessed indeed!”
“I won’t be with any other woman,” Daniel said coldly. “During our marriage, I will only have you.”
It was the first time Daniel experienced being arranged and directed in such a manner by a woman
At this moment, he was filled with curiosity toward her.
He wondered whether Alice was truly like that or if she deliberately said those things to get his
attention.
However, regardless of what she had in mind, he would find out after they married.
After finishing everything she needed to explain, Alice glanced at the time on her phone and said, “I’ll
go home and get things organized. Tomorrow morning, I’ll come to the hospital first, and then we can
go to City Hall together.”
“Okay,” Daniel said as he nodded.
Far into the night, Alic
took out her passport and sat on the sofa. She was lost in thought as she looked around the room.
After returning home, she finally realized what she had done.
“I’m crazy,” she thought. “I agreed so readily to marry a stranger.
“I even wanted to enter into an agreement with him. And after we get a divorce six months later, I still Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
have to give him the house.”
However, she indeed had no other choices.
Travis was watching her closely. If she did not get married, that guy would truly sideline her.
She had worked so hard to make some waves in the entertainment industry, so she could not afford to
let all her efforts go to waste because of Travis.
Besides, the three precious children of Daniel had truly touched her.
Whenever she saw them, it felt as if she was reminded of the three children that she had lost.
As Alice was thinking, her phone suddenly received a WhatsApp message.
It was a message from Frankie Ward. [Alice, I heard that Travis is pressuring you to get married again.
Can you handle it? If you can’t, I can pretend to be in a relationship with you.]
Alice replied. [If you marry me, what about your partner?]
Frankie sent a message. [I dare you to say “partner” again! I’m not involved with him.]

Alice retorted. [Yeah, right! You slept on the same bed with him, and you are not involved with him!]
Frankie replied jokingly. [Your friend launches a missile at you.]
Alice replied jokingly as well. [Catch it and bounce it back!]
