Broken Memories, Intertwined Hearts

Chapter 1

B City.

The man's hand held hers tightly as they left the city hall marriage registration window.

Ines Galeana looked at the marriage certificate with both their names on it. It felt unreal like she was dreaming.

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. "Mr. Meyer, have you ever been divorced? Or do you have any secret problems?" This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Women were really into him because of his looks.

She couldn't figure out why he was still unmarried in his 30s and why he fancied her. She was just an ordinary girl. It didn't make any sense.

Ethan paused for a second and smiled, "Isn't it a bit late to ask that question now? You're legally my wife. Are you already thinking about getting a divorce?"

This was the first time in Ines’ life that she had done something so unbelievable. At this moment, she was tense all over, her mind in chaos, unable to think.

She almost couldn't catch her breath when she heard the man's response.

Impulse really is the devil. She must have lost her mind. She married a man she had known for less than a day!

However, since she chose this path, she had to keep going.

Ethan understood her worries and comforted her, "Mrs. Meyer, don't think about it too much. No need to make wild assumptions and worry. I won't be abusive. I won’t have affairs or divorce you. As

for the secret problems you mentioned, I can prove I have none."

Ines's face instantly turned red. This man really knew how to tease!

Wait a minute.

"What did you just call me?" She seemed to have heard "Mrs. Meyer."

"Mrs. Meyer. Did I... get it wrong?" The man's mouth slightly raised.

Ines coughed lightly and turned her head silently. There was no mistake. She was indeed married and now had her husband's last name.

It was such a formal name. It sounded awkward, no matter how she said it. Calling her by her name seemed more direct.

"Give me your phone."

Ines knew what he wanted to do and handed him her phone. He quickly entered his phone number and then used her phone to call himself.

"I have a business meeting tonight and will be busy for the next two or three days. Once I'm done, I'll come to pick you up and visit your family to discuss our relationship."

When it came to their relationship, Ines was stressed and immediately got a headache. She really didn't know how to explain it to her family. Who got married unexpectedly?

They would definitely make a fuss.

"I live with my aunt and uncle. They are my family. I don't have any other relatives."

Ethan didn't ask any more questions. He just responded with, "Hmm."

Ines breathed a sigh of relief. She really didn't know how to explain her complicated past.

She initially wanted to go back on her own, fearing that her aunt and uncle would discover her marital status.

Ethan insisted on taking her home. He stated a very legitimate reason, "Now that we're married, how can I let you go home alone at night? What would people think of me as a husband?"

Ines had no words to respond. She was unable to find a reason to deny his proposal.

This man always hit the nail on the head with simple words. It left her speechless each time. Ines couldn't help and wondered, would he control her in the future?

The two drove all the way to an old neighborhood. Ethan couldn't help but frown at the dark alley, "Do you walk on this street alone at night?"

Ines gripped her purse slightly, "Not exactly. If I work late, my uncle or cousin picks me up and takes me home."
