Chapter 519
Amara and Keith walked to the side of the venue. Seeing no one around, Keith
comforted her, “Finnian was never any good. Him getting with Liliana is just two bad apples in one basket, so don’t be upset p>
But Amara shook her head. “I’m not just upset because of Finnian p>
In fact, she had been in a foul mood since the previous night when the housekeeper sent her that photo of Fiona wearing her mother’s ring. Liliana’s words just now had only added fuel to the fire.
Keith was a little surprised. “What are you unhappy about p>
Amara glanced at him. As it turned out, it had something to do with Keith.
After a long night of deliberation, she had finally made up her mind to ask Keith if he would be willing to enter a sham marriage with her.
Since she was seeing him at the press conference today, she planned to bring it up, but the words were proving hard to get out.
Seeing her hesitant look, Keith’s curiosity got the better of him. “What is it? Are you in some kind of trouble? Tell me, and I’ll help you solve it p>
This was, in fact, something she needed Keith’s help to solve. Amara bit her lip, finally steeling herself. “Well, it’s like this p>
She first explained how Larry had promised to give her the majority shares of the Sullivan Group if she got married, then she simply looked at Keith, saying nothing.
Keith listened intently to Amara.
Larry had actually said he’d give Amara the majority shares of the Sullivan Group just for getting married? It sounded strange, but coming from Larry, it wasn’t surprising.
Larry might be a scumbag, but he placed an unusually high value on family stability.
Amara was currently divorced, which in Larry’s eyes was a highly undignified situation. Demanding that she remarry was perfectly in line with Larry’s character.
And Amara was determined to get her hands on the Sullivan family shares. So what was she trying to say by telling him all this?
As Amara stared at him without speaking, a thought bloomed in Keith’s mind. His heart started pounding, and his breathing quickened.
Could it be what he was thinking p>
“Keith,” Amara finally said, “can you do me a favor? I’m looking for someone for a sham marriage, so would you be willing to p>
“I will p>
Before Amara could finish, Keith cut her off.
In that moment, a jolt of pure joy shot through him. He was ecstatic, so happy he could die.
Amara wanted to marry him! Even if it was a sham marriage to deceive Larry, once they had the certificate they could spend time together, develop feelings, and then he could confess his love. Amara would be moved, and they would naturally
become a real couple, right?
Keith struggled to suppress the grin spreading across his face. “Don’t worry, I can definitely help you with a small favor like this p>
“Coincidentally, my family has been
just tell them ‘ve married you. It’s a
nagging me to get married later. Det
good way to get them eff my back.
“1
A small smile touched Amara’s lips. She knew Keith was just saying that to make
her feel better. In reality, he was the one helping her.
Keith’s eyes sparkled. To keep Amara from noticing his excitement, he pulled her into a hug and patted her back.
“Don’t worry, I’ll help you raise the
baby in your belly too. I’ll tell
everyone it’s mine. If you want the
baby to have my last name,
that’s
fine if you want it to have yours that
works too p>
Right, the baby in her belly p>
Amara hesitated.
