“John Henderson!” Sierra yelled; she was truly frantic this time. “Do you have any idea what time it is right now? Is Tommy really your son? There’s no time to be worrying about something this pointless!”

“Start the treatment,” John spoke into the call that was still connected. “Let me know as soon as he’s out of danger.”

“Alright.” Dr. Smith answered.

The call ended after that.

Meanwhile, only John and Sierra were left in the room.

John stood up and closed the door that had been left open. He picked up the agreement from the table and held it out to her.” You can sign it now.”

Sierra looked at him and suddenly felt as if she didn’t know the man in front of her at all.

How could he be this heartless? How could he still think about this when Tommy was in a hospital bed?

“Even if I sign it, I’ll never forgive you.” The hatred in her chest had reached its breaking point.

“Whether you forgive me or not doesn’t matter,” John said, passing her a pen. “All I want is for you to stay by my side of your own free will.”

“This isn’t of my own free will,” Sierra said.

“If you agree to it, then it is,” John said nonchalantly.

Emotion burned in Sierra’s eyes. The more she looked at him, the more like a stranger he felt.

John kept the pen held out, his low voice calm as he reminded her, “You have ten seconds to sign. If you don’t, I’ll send a message and stop the treatment.”

Sierra snatched the pen from his hand and signed her name, and there was a sharp tearing sound as she signed the paper. In fact, she had pressed so hard that the last stroke of her name cut through the paper.

Thump!

She slammed the pen down on the table and stared at him with nothing but hostility and rejection in her eyes. “Are you happy

now?!”

John picked up the freshly signed agreement. When he saw her neat, delicate name on the paper, the stone in his chest finally

began to ease.

“Did you think something like this has no legal force, that even if you signed it, it would still be just a scrap of paper?” he asked when he noticed her firing off messages to Dr. Smith without the slightest concern for what the agreement actually said.

Sierra’s fingers paused over the screen.

That was exactly what she had thought.

A moment ago, she had been so worried about Tommy that her head hadn’t been clear. She hadn’t dared sign anything casually.

Once she calmed down, she realized a paper like this wasn’t legally enforceable. Whether she honored it or not depended entirely on her conscience.

And the moment John used Tommy to force her hand, whatever conscience she had toward him had already died.

“In my eyes, signing it means you agree to it,” John said as he rubbed his thumb over the paper. “If you refuse to follow what is written there, I’ll deal with it according to the breach terms. You can face the consequences yourself.”

Sierra stared at him in disbelief.

John took her hand and pulled her into his arms, but she instinctively tried to pull away.

“First condition. Be my wife and behave.” John tightened his hold on her again, his tone calm while the words were merciless.” I don’t think I need to remind you that Tommy is still not out of danger yet.”

“Do you think this is fun?” Sierra met his emotionless gaze.

John watched her calmly, while all Sierra could feel was suffocation.

If he really enforced everything written in that agreement to the letter, how would she be any different from a bird he kept in a gilded cage at home?

“Once this trip is over, you’ll move back to Campanile Estate and sleep with me in my bed at night,” John said, not answering her question. He simply laid out what would happen after this in an unhurried manner. If there are any events that require your attendance, you will go with me.”

“Of course, you can always refuse,” John added the line before she could speak. “As long as you can handle the consequences.”
