“Are you still working, Sonia?
“Yeah, but go ahead Taking on the phone won’t keep me from my work.” Soniawwa white–collar worker with more exibility in her work than others. She didn’t need to witry about getting reprimanded by her superior just because she charted on the phone for a while
“I’ve been too busy today to let you know–I’m married,” Lorraine sail
Sonia was taken aback. Then, she asked, “Walt, you’re married? To whom? You don’t even have a boyfriend. How can you be manini?*
She knew Lorraine’s family was constantly urging her to get married. In truth, she was going through the same thing herself other women their age were already married with kids, yet she and Lorraine were still angle. No wonder their parents kept urging them to marry
Sola was always busy with work and couldn’t care less about her parents‘ urging on the other hand, Lorraine was almost going out of her mind from her parents‘ nagging. She knew Lorraine constantly went on blind dates.
Lorraine was actually a prime candidate for marriage. The Sommers owned land and were considered rich, but Lorraine’s blind dies never worked our because oriented because of that, Irene and Charles refeed to sponsor her, forcing her to take out a loan for herochards
“He’s my blind date. Yes, I went on another one today. He seemed like the right pay, so we registered our martage right then and there,” Lorraine said.
Sonia was baffled. “I’ve said this once, I’ve said it a thousand times–we can’t settle for anyone, no matter how anxious our parents someone, you’re going to spend the rest of your life with them.
Marrige is a big deall it yoursery
“How could you have gotten into a shotgun mange? Do you even know ham? Never trust what those matchmakers say. They’re lying through their teeth!” Lorraine agreed wholeheartedly, “I was sick of my parents nagging me about, and felt like this guy was a good choice. That’s why we got married straight away. He’s of good character, I swear. If you want me to pick out a fine, it’s probably that he already has two kids.”
“What? He already has children? Soniaeral out, attracting her colleagues attention. Even her direct superior, the general manager, looked at her through his open doar
She hurriedly clapped a hand over her mouth and went to hide in the restroom “You can’t many diver no matter how sick you are of your parents naging! Don’t tell me you don’t want to have of your own just because hrabrosty has ”
Lomine laughed. “You know better than anyone else.”
other women didn’t want to be stepmothers, so they hated that top had the twins with him on the other hand, she thought it was great to have the twins around. They helped bridge the distance between her and Logan, making it easier for them to get close to each other
Besides, they were adorable and intelligent. They didn’t hate her either. She got a husband and two children from one shotgun marriage. How great was it that she didn’t need to go through the pain of labor to become a mother?
Sonia was exasperated “What does heda?!
“He’s construction worker at a site near Glend de Grand Hotel, He looks handsome, though. He’s like Prince Charming when he wears
“Did you marry him for his lace?”
“No, I liked his personality. I didn’t have reglesses on doring the bland date, so I couldn’t see what he looked like!
Sonia fell silent. She couldn’t believe Lorraine dared to get into a shotgun manage with a man whose face she hadn’t seen. “What’s his last name?
“Moore. His name is Logan Moore. It’s a nice name, which fits his appearance,” Lorraine said.
Sonia was left for words again. After a while, she said. “I feel like I’ve heard that name bedare, Oh wet–it’s because he shares the same last name as my boss. My generad manager is also a Moore. His name is Jacob Moore.”
Jacob and Logan shared the same last name, but their trees were wholly different Jacob was a son of the steamily, the most attent family in Ulmdale City. The head of the tamily and the CEO of Moore Corporation sent him to the subsidary he was at now to manage it.
“There are plenty of people in the world who have the same names, let alone the same last name,” Locaine said. She told Sonia about how she had married the Logan
Moore.
Then, she said, “I think Logan wants to sleep with me. Do you think I should
This was the point of her phone call After a brief silence, Sonja said, “You two got into a shotgan markere without knowing anything about each other, so there’s no foundation for feelings. I think it’s better to hold back on this until you two develop feelings for each other”
She was very serious about her relationships and marriage, so there was no way she would marry a stranger like Lorraine had. She couldn’t stand living with a stranger, no matter how handsome he was.
“Kick him out of bed. He won’t dare to think about anything then. Knowing what you’re capable of, that should be cay enough,” Soniarad
Lorraine ain’t get mad at that she said, “C’mon, I’m such a gentle soal Why do you make me sound like I’m so violent?
“others might not know what you’re like, but you can’t lie to me. We’ve been friends and classmates from kindergarten up to university, Look at how you’re climbing trees like a monkey every day! How dare you call that gentle? Don’t make me laugh my head off” Sonia retorted
“Fine, fine I know what to do now. You need to get back to work, and Ineed to shower,” Lorraine sald
Before hanging up, Sonia said, “Bring your husband out this weekend. I want to see whether he’s worthy of you leaning your happiness in his hands.”
Lorraine sighed. This was the consequence of a shotgın marriage – there were so many questions and problems. “Leak, I think he’s great. Whatever it is, I’m only going to gel. married once.
“My parents have met him and are happy with him, which means they won’t nag me anymore. With that, I’ll have peace in my life. There’s no way I’m getting a divorce.”
Lapan was something of a shield in her. Divorce was the one thing she beared right now. If that were to happen, Charles and lerne would nag her more than they’d done before She could say goodbye to her dreves of getting rich.
The incident from back then had dealt her a detrimental blow. From then on, she’d sworn to become rich and influential through hard work. Setting up her orchards was only the first step

Having one man in her life was more than enough for her
Sonia wanted to continue beating terraine, but she hung up before she could do so
Now that Lorraine had informed Sool and asked for advice, she no longer feared sharing a room with Logan. They were legally married, and she knew sex was natural between couples. They couldn’t avoid the subject forever.
And so, she happily showered, making herself comfortable. Logan had already gotten to be when she came out of the bathroom. His torso was bane, and he propped himself up while waiting for her.
She couldn’t help admiring his body. Was he waiting for her to pounce on him?
