There were two voices debating in Alina's head. They did not give in to each other.
"Let's get married. After marriage, I don't have to suffer from my mother's abuse and humiliation. In a way, my mother will live happier as well."
"But Alina, do you know even know him? If you just marry yourself off like this, it may be out of the frying pan and into the fire!"
"How bad could it be? There is nothing worse than not being able to marry your beloved. Furthermore, there is nothing more depressing than being insulted by your family every day!"
"Alina, you have to think clearly. S*umbag isn't an ordinary person. His world is complicated and difficult to navigate. Are you ready for that?"
"Life is what you make of it! What's more, even if I get married, I don't have to live in his world. We have agreed to live separate lives and not interfere with each other after marriage. Only when he needs me, then I will play the role of his wife in front of his family or friends, vice versa."
"It's not that simple. Just like today's banquet, these incidents may happen frequently in the future."
"It's not his fault that this incident happened, Anne was the one who targeted me. If she wanted to, she would find the opportunity."
"But he is so rich, so handsome, and so excellent. How could you be worthy of him?"
"Why should I be worthy of him? This is not a love marriage, it's just an arrangement."
"Alright then. Go get married to that s*umbag!"
"Are you not trying to persuade me anymore?"
The voice against the marriage was defeated and remained silent.
After a long internal debate, Alina decided to proceed with the marriage. Anyway, Ken was going to marry Anne too, right?
She fell fast asleep for the rest of the night. The alarm clock woke her up the next morning.
