Summer felt that she could no longer continue the work contract with Axel. Hearing Summer trying to cancel the partnership contract was Completely unexpected for Axel. Axel, who appeared so confident, believed that Summer would remain bound to him, where she was essential to Summer. However, a sudden remark escaped Summer's lips, leaving Axel stunned. Despite his intention to further strengthen their relationship, the reality turned out differently.
Axel's disappointed expression went unnoticed by Summer. Axel did not want Summer to cancel the contract, thinking he would lose the opportunity to retain his valuable asset. Axel wanted them to get married soon to show his father that his relationship with Summer was not based on financial transactions but on a genuine connection.
Axel paused and thought. In any way possible, he had to prevent Summer from canceling the contract with him.
"Alright, if that's what you want, I'll tell The truth to both of your parents. They seem to have high expectations of me," Axel said as he was about to leave Summer and meet her parents. Just a few steps away, Summer shouted, "Wait! Stop right there!" firmly.
At that moment, Axel thought that Summer had fallen into the trap of her own words. He believed this was Summer's weakness that he could exploit to prevent her from canceling the contract. Axel smiled and approached Summer again.
"How about it? Will you reconsider?" Axel asked. I stared at Axel with a sense of hatred. I was upset about why he had to threaten me like this. It disgusted me, but I couldn't do anything except prevent what he was about to do. Just being near him made me angry. I couldn't imagine enduring it for hours, let alone marrying him. Was this the beginning of my life's destruction? How could it happen so quickly?
Entering a new phase of life like Marriage was never in my imagination. Just think about it; there are so many rules in Marriage now. I hadn't envisioned acting out intimate scenes with Axel in front of both sets of parents. This time, I found myself cornered again.
I had no other option but to nod and comply with Axel's words. Imagine if Axel revealed now how we were playing this charade; I was afraid one of my parents might suddenly have a heart attack.
Seeing Summer silent for a while, Axel became more convinced that she would retract her words and continue the charade they were playing.
"How about it? Have you made a decision?" Axel asked curiously. I looked at his face, sighed deeply, and finally answered that I had reconsidered canceling The contract with him.
A triumphant smile appeared on Axel's face, like a child delighted to receive candy. Axel confidently walked back to meet Summer's parents, while Summer seemed less enthusiastic.
"It seems we'll have the wedding in a week," Axel announced when meeting my parents again. "Huh? One week?" I exclaimed in surprise. "Isn't it too rushed, dear?" my worried father asked. "Uncle and Aunt, don't worry. I will take care of everything," Axel reassured confidently.
Oh no, in a week, I would become someone's wife. How could this happen? Was Axel not in his right mind? What was his Real plan? Was there something urgent that made him want to marry me so quickly? Did he want to enjoy my body? No, no, no! Don't think like that, Summer! I muttered while shaking my head.
My mother looked Very Happy, unlike my father, who seemed concerned about me. How could he not be? His wish for a son-in-law would soon come true. I didn't expect it to become so Serious. Wait a minute? It seemed that the contract didn't mention how long we would be married. I should discuss it again with Axel.
The next day, I sent a short message to Axel asking him to meet after office hours. Axel didn't respond at all. I wasn't the type to contact someone if they didn't reply to my messages. That's why I waited until Axel responded.
Time passed quickly, and the busyness at the office made me forget the time and, of course, Axel's response. When it was time to go home, I checked my phone again, but there was still no response from Axel. I concluded he didn't want to meet me until our wedding day. "Should I give it to him on my wedding day?" I said to myself.
How could I meet Axel? That's what I was thinking right now. I didn't know where he worked or lived because Axel never shared anything about himself. What was even more Surprising, he knew everything about me even though I never disclosed anything to him. We weren't even that close to exchanging personal information.
I couldn't stand not contacting Axel. When I arrived home, which previously I hadn't thought of calling Axel at all, but I finally did it. On the first call, there was no answer. Then I tried again for the second time, and still, there was no answer. I became more curious about what he was doing right now. "Is he busy preparing for the wedding? No one is so busy that they can't answer a call," I muttered with annoyance.
As the night grew late, I tried calling him again. This time, it connected, unlike before. Shortly after, My call, was Finally answered. I heard a faint voice that sounded like someone who had just woken up, slightly hoarse and comforting. I don't know why. But I felt that the voice was so sexy and refreshing to my ears. I was stunned and tried to listen carefully. "Is this Axel's voice on the phone? Ah, why does it sound so sexy? Does his voice always sound like this? Why is it different?"
"Have I started to fall in love with Axel? Could this just be a momentary feeling? What's wrong with me?" "Am I nervous just from hearing his voice? It seems like I should see a doctor." Summer keeps denying her feelings.
