Chapter 1063
The Ceo’s Convict Wife
âDo we have to be lovey-dovey to get married?â Warren said displeasedly.
âI can tell that you have no feelings for each other. Even if you are married, you will get divorced sooner or later,â the woman said.
But then, the manâs hostile glare sent a chill down her spine, and the woman dared not say anything more. On the other hand, Amelia knew that Warren was angry.
âSheâs just an outsider,â Amelia couldnât help but say. After all, the woman was also a victim in her marriage, and it was just a casual conversation. Warren didnât need to get angry with the woman because of those words.
Warrenâs gaze shifted to Amelia, and the hostility in his eyes slowly faded. Finally, he returned to his usual self.
Actually, he had an uncontrollable rage at that moment when the woman said they would get divorced sooner or later.
Even though he knew their marriage was a temporary solution, he couldnât help but imagine that when the time came, she might not divorce him and would be willing to stay with him as a couple for the rest of their lives.
Meanwhile, Warren and Ameliaâs queue number was called. They got up and went to counter No. 5, handing over their ID cards and household registry to the staff.
After filling out the registration form, it was time to take the photos required for the marriage certificate.
Amelia and Warren sat in the chairs facing the camera as requested by the photographer, who looked dissatisfied.
âWhatâs wrong with you two? Youâre here to get married and become husband and wife, so bring your heads closer together and smile more on your face! Only then will it look like you are getting married!â
the photographer nagged.
âIt doesnât matter, Sir. Just take the photo. Anyway, itâs just a photo required for the marriage certificate,â Amelia said lightly as if she didnât care how the photo would look.
âThen⦠Then Iâll just shoot it like this! Donât complain if it doesnât look good,â the photographer said displeasedly.
âSure,â Amelia answered calmly.
Warren smiled bitterly and said nothing. She was not even willing to smile with him in the wedding photo.
For her, the meaning of todayâs marriage was only for the sake of the child.
However, for him, today was a momentous day. He was going to marry the one woman he had ever wanted to marry in his life.
The photos were taken swiftly, and the photographer added, âLater, you will proceed to the stage to exchange your vows before receiving your marriage certificate. Would you like to have a photography service during the announcement? We can capture pictures for you, and then you can select seven of them to be printed on the spot. This service is available for just 10 dollars, and it also serves as a souvenir.â
Generally speaking, many newlyweds would choose to have that photography service. After all, 10 dollars was not much, and the photos were a lifelong memento.
âNo,â Amelia replied without a second thought.
The photographer turned to look at Warren. âIf she says no, Warren said calmly. then no,â
When it was their turn to make the announcement on stage, they recited the wedding vows word for word after the staff.
âFrom this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, young or old, we will love and support each other through thick and thin, weal and woe, in joy and in sorrow, and become lifelong partnersâ¦â Amelia and Warren recited in unison.
Ameliaâs voice was faint without any fluctuation as if she was just reciting it mechanically. To her, those vows had no meaning.
But for Warren, those vows were lifelong.
Warren stared at Amelia as he read the vows.
Amelia didnât know how grateful he was to her for keeping the baby.
For him, today was the marriage of his life, even if they would divorce in the future. By the time he got old and lay in a coffin, he could at least tell himself that she had once been his wife.
In fact, it was a great honor for him to have the title of husband and wife with her in this life.
Even if the marriage was only in name and a tool, he secretly told himself that he should be content.
Warren and Amelia each had a marriage certificate in their hands when they came out of City Hall.
Warren said, âIâll send you home.â
âNo, Iâll take the bus back myself,â Amelia refused.
Warren said bitterly, âEven after we become husband and wife, are you still going to reject me like this?â
âYou know very well that our marriage is only for the child,â Amelia said.
Warren was silent, as he knew that better than anyone else.
She would probably be disgusted to spend even a moment with him if it werenât for the child.
âBy the way, come with me to register for the birth permit when youâre free,â Amelia said.
âOkay, you set the time. We will do it whenever you want,â Warren said.
Amelia didnât say anything when she heard that. She turned and walked toward the bus station.
Warren stared at her back in a daze until her figure disappeared from his sight, and he laughed mockingly at himself. Then he turned around and returned to the photo booth at City Hall.
âHere. These are the photos taken when you took the vows just now. Please choose seven of them,â
the photographer said.
At first, the photographer thought the couple didnât want the extra photography service, but unexpectedly, the man came by later and secretly asked for it.
âGive me all the photos. You donât have to print them. Just send them to my email,â Warren said.
âAll of them?â The photographer was stunned for a moment and then said. âEven if you donât want to print them, all these photos will cost more than 10 dollars How much do you want? Warren asked without hesitation.
The photographer set a price, and Warren paid him right away. After the photographer sent the photos to Warrenâs email, he couldnât help but say. âYou and your wife donât seem to be on good terms. Did you have a quarrel? You two have to work hard together as newlyweds! Couples will always make up with each other, no matter what happens. If you talk sweetly and show attentiveness to your wife, she will forgive you in a few days!â
