A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 6

"I might not love you for the rest of my life." 

This was what Wilson said yesterday.

As Alina pondered on this, she suddenly felt relieved. Wilson had said that he was in love with another person, a woman he could never marry. He only had room for one woman in his heart and no one else. 

She did not know why Wilson and his lover couldn't be together. Perhaps, everybody had to have some heartache in their past.

This man could be an angel sent by the heavens to save her from her predicament.

His situation was exactly the same as hers.

She was like him, unable to fall in love again because she still had feelings for someone else. 

He had a woman who he deeply loved, and she had a man who she could never forget. They can't be together with the one they truly love. 

They were perfectly suited for each other. They could get married even though they were not in love with each other without any guilt. It was possible to get along like strangers or even friends with the convenience of marriage. Her mother would be satisfied and she could teach Anne a lesson.

Alina imagined taking her marriage certificate and shoving it in Anne's face, saying, "I am the one dumping Ken. Don't worry, I am not interested in him. Both of you deserve each other after all!" 

Thinking about this, she made up her mind. Swallowing her saliva nervously, Alina called Wilson, "I've decided. Scumbag, let's get married!"

"Okay!" At the other end of the phone, Wilson replied bluntly. There was no emotion in his voice. 

Alina let out a sigh of relief after he cut off the call.

Yesterday at the restaurant, they managed to reach an agreement. If they ever decide to get married, the other person would play the role of a good husband or wife in front of their respective family and friends. 

As for the million-dollar dowry, Wilson said that it was a minuscule sum to him. In her own mind, Alina also planned to return the dowry to him after she saved up enough.

Her mood suddenly brightened. She invited Rosie to have dinner. After that, she called her mother and told her she would return home later because she needed to work overtime. Despite her mother cursing on the phone, Alina had a smile on her lips. Nothing could affect her mood today, not even her mother. 

Rosie and Alina decided to have hotpot for dinner. 

They sat across from each other and cooked their dinner in a steaming hotpot. It was comforting to have something warm for dinner.

"Rosie, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly. In just one day, Mr. Hall was taken away. The headquarters told me they were going to report this to the Adams Family as well. 200 thousand dollars was credited to me already." Alina couldn't stop beaming widely. 

Rosie was ecstatic for Alina. "That's great! That jerk finally has a taste of his own medicine. Right, keep the money a secret. Don't let your mother know about it." 

"Of course! I'm going to use it to pay my dowry!" Alina pondered for a moment and continued, "By the way, Rosie, I'm getting married!"

Rosie was almost choked on the soup. "What did you say? You are getting married? To whom? Don't tell me it's Ken?"
