    Chapter 1386


    But for money and gain, she chose to sell her body and soul. Whenever her thoughts started to drift,


    Steven would wrap her tightly in his strong arms, his deep and powerful voice whispering in her ear,


    “Dani.”


    Dani? Who was that?


    She didn’t get it. But his words pulled her back to reality.


    She wasn’t sure if he was calling someone else’s name, or saying something else. She opened her


    eyes, trying to find answers from him.


    But he put his hand over her eyes. Her sight blocked, all she could sense was his movements


    bing more intense, as if he wanted to tear her apart.


    That night seemed tost forever. She drifted in and out of sleep, waking only to fall back into slumber


    again.


    When she woke up again, it was already the next afternoon. Slowly opening her eyes, she saw the


    man sitting neatly on the sofa by the window, not looking back, just saying, “Check this contract, sign it


    if there’s no problem.”


    She withdrew her gaze, only then noticing a contract on the bedside table. The title of the contract was,


    Marriage Agreement.


    The document was very thick, and when she nced at it, she believed that it was about thirty pages


    long. It would take quite a while to read it all.


    The man spoke again, “Just look at the key points on the first two pages, no need to read the rest.”


    She opened the document and saw the key points he was talking about.


    A contract marriage, for a period of five years, he would pay her a sum of money, help her break into


    the entertainment industry, etc., and she couldn’t reveal their rtionship to the public.


    For the sake of money and a chance to establish herself in the entertainment industry, she picked up


    the pen and signed her name, also pressing her fingerprint onto the document.


    “I’ve deposited the money into your bank ount. As for the resources you want, someone will contact


    you.” He got up and walked towards her, his gaze coldly sweeping over her. “I don’t care what your


    private life was like before, but when you’re with me, you need to keep it clean. I don’t want to touch


    anything dirty.”


    With that he left.


    After he left, the man with the ck-framed sses who had brought her the night before appeared


    again. The man was more polite this time, and he introduced himself, “Ms. Hannah, I’m President


    Dixon’s assistant, Rick. I’ll take you to collect your marriage certificate with President Dixon first, then


    take you to your new residence.”


    That day, she met Steven’s assistant, Rick, and amidst the chaos, she and Steven obtained a marriage


    certificate, officially bing his wife.


    That day, she moved into the house where she wouldter live with Steven.

    Also that day, she learned from Rick that Steven had called her the night before because his childhood


    sweetheart had abandoned him and run off abroad with another man. Steven had identally seen her


    on a film set and thought she looked a lot like his sweetheart, so he had Rick bring her to his room.


    On the second day they met, when Steven probably didn’t even know her name, she knew that his


    heart was with another girl. She knew she was just a stand-in. But still, without hesitation, she carved


    him deep into her heart.


    She liked his focus when he was working, his passion when he desired her, and the fresh scent of him.


    She believed that they were already a married couple, and as long as she put in a little more effort, she


    could make him forget his old love and fall in love with her. And they could live happily ever after.


    But after the passion, a single sentence from him brought her crashing back to reality, “Hannah, your


    name is Hannah, right?”
