Chapter 25: The Agreement
"What is it?" Jessie asked curiously, looking up to see Kevin’s slightly dissatisfied gaze.
He didn’t say a word, merely gesturing for her to look at the paper in his hand. He glanced at the snacks on the small table, his expression becoming more serious.
‘This woman actually has the time of day to snack here.’
There were a lot of words on the paper. She noticed that not only had he already signed the paper, but he had also left a fingerprint.
‘Is that some sort of a contract?’
She reached out to take it, leaning back on the small chair, and carefully read through everything.
The agreement contained many clauses. Jessie simply summarized the most important points. First, they were merely nominal spouses now, so no intimate actions could occur. In other words, Kevin would not share a bed with her even if she wanted to.
Another point was that if they didn’t develop any feelings for each other after half a year, Kevin would divorce her. However, the apartment would be transferred to her name, and she would not be kicked out.
There was even a clause written in red, forbidding her from eyeing Grandpa Harper’s savings.
There were multiple agreements, each one indicating Kevin’s wariness and fear of her deceiving him for money or affection. Apart from getting the apartment when they divorce, Jessie would not get anything else.
