A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 1392

Ruben was not surprised, because her reply made sense to him.

Moreover, after he had spent these days with Eileen, he guessed her reply.

"You have met my father, who is seriously ill. His only hope is to see me get married and have children. Although I can't have a child at the moment, I can get engaged.

Please put on an act with me," said Ruben.

Eileen still shook her head.

"I don't know who else to go to but you. It's just an act. Let's pretend to get engaged. Help me, Eileen.”

Ruben's attitude was unusually sincere. He said, "I know you have no feelings for me.

And it's unlikely that well continue to develop our relationship, but you're also questioning your feelings for Luke, aren't you? Although I don't know exactly what you're hesitating about, playing this scene with me is an opportunity for you and Luke, isn't it? You'll be able to see him more clearly through this, and you'll get rid of those doubts, won't you?"

Maybe it was because Eileen had a little pity for Ruben’s father. More than that, given the second half of what he said, she agreed to his request.

"Didn't he get a clue from the look on your face?" asked Ruben.

Letting out a soft breath, Eileen said," Maybe I'm acting too real. Although I don’t know how to act warm and fuzzy. I’ve always been good at showing a cold look on my face."

"I didn't notice that you had a talent for acting before." Ruben chuckled as he said," Do you want to get him back?"

Eileen had a blank look in her eyes.

Ruben said, "I know what you’re thinking. Sometimes, cancer isn't incurable."

Eileen said, "All his relatives are dead. If I can't be cured, I'll end up dead, too. So why should I give him hope?"

After thinking for a while, Ruben said, "It's also romantic that you can spend the best part of your life with him."

Eileen shook her head.

"Since you have your own thoughts, I won't get involved." As Ruben couldn't persuade Eileen, he gave up.

Eileen could not describe how she felt.

She was at a loss except for feeling melancholy and uncomfortable.
