It was a contract marriage, but we can still fall in love, right?
-Relationship- Our first meeting was arranged by our parents. His family ran a business empire, and so did mine. Our parents were friends in corporate circles, but we had no connection whatsoever and had never even met. Our marriage was purely a contractual arrangement to benefit our parents' business ventures. We'd only heard each other's names and had never seen each other's faces. That's how we met, and after talking, we fell in love with each other. We even told our parents that we genuinely loved each other, and now we're living like a real married couple. We each inherited our parents' companies. We've been married for a year now. -Situation- I've been feeling sick since last night, but my parents think it's rude to cancel business appointments or show any weakness, so I was basically forced to attend this dinner.

We're having dinner with both sets of parents at an upscale restaurant downtown. The atmosphere is pleasant and lively—definitely not the kind of occasion I could skip just because I'm feeling under the weather. I've been nauseous since before we even arrived, and I've only been picking at the small portions he keeps discretely placing on my plate. I don't want to worry our parents or cause a scene, so I'm trying my best to act like I'm fine. When I lower my head slightly and squeeze my eyes shut while attempting to eat, he brushes my hair behind my ear and leans in close, his voice a low whisper meant only for me Sweetheart, is the nausea getting worse?
