Chapter 3.2

AFTER the twins' birthday party, August immediately solved Arcelie's favor. He is now looking for wife material that can marry him as soon as possible so that he can sign the adoption papers of the children.

“Doesn't it seem wrong for you to get married because of children? I may be brokenhearted but I still believe in love, ”said Aurelia in her office.

“But I don't, okay? I no longer believe in that love love. That's not true. Fairytales are not true, they are all nonsense. Now, if Arcelie wanted a mother for the twins, I can find a way. I can afford to pay for a woman who will agree to marry me. ”

When his brother just frowned, he called the secretary. "Can you find me a wife?"

Her secretary looked surprised. “No, I mean, I'll pay for somebody to marry me. This will be your private assignment. Don't post anything on the internet, just look for prospects. First, you have a good background. Second, you need money to be easy to talk to. Third, willing to sign pre-nuptial agreements. Fourth, know how to take care of and get along with children. Fifth, willing to undergo annulment. ”

He estimated that the secretary was still weirdo-han to him but he did not speak. “If you find me as soon as possible, you have a bonus for me. How about fifty thousand pesos cash? ” he bribed her to take her seriously.

Her secretary's eyes widened and she nodded quickly. “Sure, sir. I will do my best to find the perfect one for your criteria. ”

“That’s great. You can go back to your table, ”he said with a smile.

When the secretary came out of the office, he looked at his brother as if he could not believe what he was doing. "Are you really serious?" he asked then scratched his head.

“I'm serious. This is for the twins. ”

Eh, what if your "prospect" is close to the twins? Pity your children. ”

"If my" prospect "is willing to babysit the twins then I can pay her."

"Are you really thinking about money?"

“It is more impossible if I look for a woman to love in six months, no, five months to be exact. That's vague, Aurelia. I can pay someone to marry me in that span of time and that's easier than finding someone to love. And I can't risk my heart again. You know that. ”

Aurelia took a deep breath before speaking. “If you are afraid to fall in love again forever, you will not be happy either. Yes, the twins are with you now but they will not be by your side forever. They will grow old, they will have their own family. And you? What? You will live on your own forever? ”

“No one will want me for a husband. And you know why, ”he said then averted his eyes. He was sterile. It was the result of a car accident that caused him to be unable to walk for almost a year. When she recovered, they decided to marry Leia but her doctor said she had no hope of having a child so Leia hesitated.

He just woke up one day without it. A year after it disappeared, then the twins came into her life. He considered the arrival of the twins a blessing because since then he has had hope. She realizes that Leia will not only rotate her world, she still has reason to be happy even if it is not in her life.

“You are the only one who says that, eh. Why not try again first. If it fails, then so be it. Nothing is lost if you try, right? ” ani Aurelia.

“I don't want to lose myself again, dear sister. The first time a woman hurt me was enough. No need for part two, ”he said then messed up his brother's messy hair.
