NOT FAKE BUT TRIAL MARRIAGE.

Imperial City in Louis's apartment at night,

Louis decided to have a shower before going to bed. After the soothing bath Louis changed into his sleeping pajamas and strode towards his study. He picked up his laptop and checked whether Alex has sent him the mail or not. Just then a notification occurred, "Ding!".

Louis checked the email. Everything about Wen family was written in that mail. Even how Seren had gone through all these years and how her own father abandoned her was also mentioned. After reading the mail Louis made a call to Alex.

Alex who was on the other line asked, " Did you read it?".

Louis replied, " Thanks for this".

Alex asked, " Why do you need the information of Wen family for?".

Louis explained everything to Alex. He told him how he was forced to go to Wen family to discuss about his own marriage.

Alex asked, " So what are you thinking to do now?".

Louis replied, " For now I'm thinking to go with the flow. If I reject it then it may make my identity reveal".

Alex said, " Do you need me to solve this matter for you?".

Louis replied, " No. I'll do it on my own".

Alex said, " Just because you don't want our cover to be off , you can't get married to any random lady. Think about it before you do something. If it gets any harder then just let me know. I'll handle it".

Louis replied, " Fine. If I'm not able to do it then I'll ask your help but trust me. I can solve this matter on my own".

After talking for a while Louis hung up the call. He looked at the email which was displayed on his laptop screen.

Louis thought to himself, " I knew something was suspicious. This Wen family despite being so rich why would they find a man who is just a mere intern employee for their daughter. It turns out that they are not at all interested in their daughter. They just want to set her up with someone and ruin her life. I must talk to that lady tomorrow".

........

Imperial City in Seren's apartment at morning,

It was the weekend hence Seren had no work today but still she would go to the hospital just for her patients. But today Seren had to meet that 'so called guy' who was chosen by her father for her marriage. Hence she made a call to remind Kevin about her plans.

Seren said, " Kevin I wont be coming to hospital today".

Kevin asked, " Boss are you not feeling well? Should I come over?".

Seren replied, " Will you stop over-reacting? I'm completely fine. I just have some work today hence I wont be able to come".

Kevin replied, " Yes boss".

After getting ready Seren picked up her car keys and drove towards the Lover's Cafe. When Seren entered the cafe she suddenly got a call.

Seren picked up the call as she said, " Make it quick. I have something on". The person on the other line was Seren's childhood friend Winter.

Winter asked, " Tell me what is your zodiac sign?".

Seren asked, " Why do you need that for?".

Winter replied, " I have come here to a fortuneteller which my mother-in-law recommended. Actually I wanted to check my kids future and I thought to find yours too".

Seren replied, " No need to find about my future. I'm all good".

Winter replied, " I know you have good future. But can't you satisfy your friend's curiosity? Also didn't you say you have something going on? Then why are you wasting time by arguing with me? Tell me fast otherwise you'll be late".

Seren heaved a helpless sigh as she said, " I am an Virgo. Now does that satisfy your curiosity?".

Winter replied, " Okay bye." and hung up the call.

Seren mumbled to herself, " This girl can never be stopped. After her work is done she'll immediately hang up the call. I wonder how did that Daniel fell in love with her".

Seren was looking around in the Cafe to find the man whom she was going to meet but there were many men sitting in the Cafe. Feeling helpless Seren called the number which was sent to her by Jinhai.

Seren said, " Hello? Seren speaking. May I ask where you are?".

The man on the call replied, " Hello Miss. Wen . I'm on the table near the window glass. I'm wearing a white shirt with ocean blue denim jacket".

Seren looked around the window glass side where she was exactly standing beside. She then noticed a handsome man wearing white shirt and blue denim jacket who was sitting on a table which was just a few steps away from her.

She walked towards the man as she introduced herself, " Hello. Myself Seren Euphoria James".

Louis got up and shook hands with her as he introduced himself, " Nice to meet you Miss. Wen. Myself Aiden Kelly".

As Seren sat down on the chair she said coldly without emotions, " Please call me Miss. Seren. Do not address me by Wen family".

Louis who noticed the hatred in Seren's eyes replied, " Yes Miss. Seren".

Soon a waiter came and asked both of them to place their orders. Louis looked at Seren and asked, " What would you like to have Miss. Seren?".

Seren answered looking at the waiter, " One mild milk cold coffee please".

The waiter asked, " Mam do you wish to have whipped cream on it?".

Seren replied, " Please put a lot of it".

Louis was a little shocked by Seren's answer. Naturally women don't like to eat stuff that can make them gain weight but Seren was different. Not did she ask for a milk coffee but even whipped cream on it. Louis looked at the woman in front of him who was a beauty who didn't care about anything except herself.

When Louis was busy thinking about the interesting woman in front of him, he was disturbed by the waiter, " Sir what would you like?".

Louis came back to his senses as he replied, " One black coffee with no sugar".

After placing their orders they both were quiet for a time until Louis broke the silence between them.

Louis asked, " Miss. Seren what is your profession?".

Seren replied, " I am an cardiac surgeon and an emergency medicine specialist".

Louis said, " I am an intern in the finance department of LY Corporations".

Louis asked, " Miss Seren may I ask your zodiac sign?".

Seren replied, " What do you need it for Mr. Kelly?".

Louis replied, " Actually I believe in zodiac pair matching. I would like to marry a lady who is a match with me".

Seren mumbled to herself, " Why is everyone interested in horoscope these days?". But it was loud enough for Louis to hear it.

Seren replied, " Listen Mr. Kelly, I'm not at all interested in marriage and I don't want to get married. So I guess there's no need for you to know my zodiac sign".

Louis replied, " But we are already here to discuss about us. Isn't it? If you didn't intend to marry me from the start then why did Miss. Seren come here?".

Seren replied, " I was forced by Mr. Wen to come here. I am here just to tell you about my opinions".

Louis asked, " As we are already here then why not just get to know each other? Now Miss. Seren can you please tell me your zodiac sign?".

Seren sighed as she replied, " I'm an Virgo".

Louis who was sitting in the Cafe waiting for the lady who he was going to meet today heard a conversation. It was a woman talking on her phone with someone. Louis had heard the conversation between Seren and Winter but he didn't expect that same beautiful woman to be the daughter of Wen family. Soon the coffee was served to both of them according to their orders.

Sipping some of his coffee Louis asked, " Miss. Seren it may be rude of me to ask you this but may I know what is your age?".

Seren replied, " Excuse me?".

Louis said, " I'm really sorry for asking you this but I just really just want to know your age".

Seren replied, " I'm 27".

Louis thought to himself, " Is this really a coincidence? She is an Virgo and older than me too. She just perfectly fits the points of my wife that grandpa mentioned".

Louis said, " Miss. Seren if there's nothing wrong then I would like to proceed with our marriage".

Seren almost spit her coffee due to Louis's sudden confession. She wiped her mouth as she said, " Mr. Kelly I said I don't want to get married. I am not at all interested getting married to you".

Louis asked, " Miss. Seren do you have a boyfriend?".

Seren replied, " No".

Louis asked, " Then why are you rejecting me? Do you hate me?".

Seren replied, " Mr. Kelly I don't hate you but nor do I like you. It's as if you are someone who doesn't exist for me".

Louis said, " As Miss. Seren doesn't like me and neither hates me then I still have a chance. Isn't it?".

Seren frowned as she replied, " Mr. Kelly please try to understand. This marriage is forced by Mr. Wen and I have no say in it. But as I said that I don't wish to get married that means that I'm not gonna get married in this life of mine".

Louis said, " Miss. Seren if you reject me then Mr. Wen may again set you up with some guy. Do you think that you can reject every man out there. And what if you are completely forced to get married with any random stranger? ".

Seren asked, " Why are you so stubborn on getting married to me?".

Louis replied, " Miss Seren this might sound strange to you but, before passing away my grandma heard that at the age of 25 I will suffer some disaster which can take my life but if I get married to someone who is an Virgo and older than me then the destruction can be lessened".

Seren replied, " I'm sorry Mr. Kelly but I don't believe in these things".

Louis said, " It was the last wish of my grandma so I have to complete it. At this rate, I'll meet someone with Virgo sign by this month and will have to marry a complete stranger. If I have a chance then I'd rather be with someone I know".

Seren asked, " What would I get if I marry you Mr. Kelly?".

Louis replied, " Miss. Seren you can be free from the Wen family completely. Our marriage doesn't have to be real. We can just do it as a deal".

Seren said, " So are you proposing a fake marriage Mr. Kelly?".

Louis replied, " Not fake but trial marriage. If we still don't like each other then we can get divorced after two years of our marriage. What do you think about it Miss. Seren?".

Seren thought for a moment as she replied, " Fine then let's proceed with this marriage. When should we do it?".

Louis replied, " If Miss. Seren is free then let's do it next weekend".

Seren said, " Then it's a deal".
