Contract Lovers Never Break Up!
Chapter 1
All the netizens were clamoring on Twitter.
They all asked Eileen Solomon to post a photo of her kissing her husband.
They all hoped to gain good luck out of their happy marriage.
My neighbor, Jenica, couldn't stand it anymore.
She commented, "Scarlett Reid, why don't you show off your husband too?"
Then, Gavin Horne's twitter account immediately went offline.
I was Scarlett Reid.
And I was Gavin Horne's legitimate wife.
——
The public opinion war on the Internet cooled down for a short time after Gavin's offline.
Eileen no longer replied to the messages from the netizens.
My guessing was that she was trying to find a way to get Gavin's consent so that she could reveal some clues about their unusual relationship on the Internet.
Reading through the comments that the netizens were expectant, I chuckled.
I clicked opened my Whatsapp chat with Gavin.
"Let her post it. Isn't it just a photo?"
"You don't care that much, do you?"
Now he was pretending to be a chaste man.
Yet he had been on the same bed with Eileen day and night.
Gavin quickly replied.
"Have you had enough?"
I could almost imagine how impatient he was when he typed.
The guilt in his eyes was imperceptible.
It seemed that they had made an agreement.
It was a message from Eileen.
"Scarlett, don't be angry. The netizens are all joking. We're doing this for the sake of the new product's launching on the market."
"Never should you take it as real, okay?"
I left her on read.
After a while, Gavin messaged me again.
"I've told you many times. Come at me if you have anything to say."
I took a deep breath.
I typed quickly.
"Get lost."
I had never been as clear-headed as I was now.
The nauseating feeling overwhelmed me.
After thinking for a while, I added.
"You two, get lost together!"
When I opened a bottle of wine collected by Gavin at home alone, he sent another message.
"Apologize to Eileen tomorrow."
"If it weren't for her, our company wouldn't have been so well-known so quickly."
"Just say that you drank too much."
I raised my eyebrows.
I looked at the wine in his hand.
I indeed drank a lot.
It was raining heavily outside.
Originally, such weather scared me the most.
In the past, Gavin would always rush back to me as soon as possible to keep me company.
But now...
I laughed at myself mockingly.
I didn't open the window.
However, I still felt a chill down my spine.
The five year's time I spent with Gavin was the bitterest one of my life.
When we met, he was just a young man who had started a business.
With the knowledge I gained from the top business courses I have studied, I guided him to expand the company step by step to its current scale.
Everything had changed since Eileen's post back then.
Gavin drank on behalf of her politely.
In her post, she implied that Gavin had a crush on her.
It thus further evolved into a perfect metropolitan love story.
She was good at writing.
Many netizens had become her fans.
They all followed her and requested a sequel.
Just like that, she took the opportunity to attach the company's name.
Under such circumstances, the new product's sales skyrocketed high surprisingly.
After all, a realistic romantic love story between a dominant CEO and a delicate female celebrity could easily garner netizens' attention.
At first, Gavin wanted to clarify.
But the temptation in reality took over him.
The sales department's performance had reached a record-time high.
