It all started with Aretha's accident, overhearing Elvan's talk, who was looking for a wife he could contract for two years.
At that time Elvan was not making an announcement.
It's just that Aretha accidentally eavesdropped on her conversation with Rangga, her friend and boss at Aretha's place of work.
They were discussing the problem of Elvan being forced to marry by his family, even though he didn't want to do it.
Although it is not clear what the reason is, what is certain is that currently Elvan needs a solution to overcome this problem.
And because at that time they were talking together in the middle of Rangga's bar, which of course Aretha was working there at the time, it was very likely that Aretha could overhear their conversation.
When he was cleaning one of the tables near them.
At first, Aretha didn't intend to hear their conversation or anything, because her mind was so messed up. And he wasn't in a good mood either.
but as soon as she heard someone say they would be willing to pay whatever money was asked if she could be his contract wife, then without thinking Aretha rushed to their side of the table and offered herself.
"Me!! I'm ready. If you can afford to pay me dearly, then I'm willing to do whatever you ask. I'm willing to be your wife," Aretha exclaimed quickly and spontaneously without thinking anymore.
Aretha knew she was crazy. How could he possibly volunteer so easily, when he heard the word money?
Yes, for now, money is everything to him.
Thus without minding the looks of disbelief and shock that the two men in front of her gave her, she immediately said back.
"I'm sorry if I interrupted. But I overheard you guys talking, and I heard that you're looking for a woman to marry you by contract."
"If you don't mind, I think I can help you."
Aretha didn't know which crazy demon was possessing her at that time.
but he'd bet it was the craziest thing he'd ever done.
And of course Rangga, the boss immediately patted Aretha's head lightly as a warning sign.
"Yes!! Can you be polite to a guest? Who allowed you to eavesdrop on our conversation?"
"Get back to work and don't mess up!!" shouted Rangga in a threatening tone.
"Boss, don't prevent me from making a lot of money. I heard your friend say earlier that he needed an expert that he would pay dearly for."
"Therefore in this age of globalization, am I not allowed to present my simple information to him?" looked at his boss with a look of pity and sulked.
The expression he had to show demanded some attention.
she knew her boss wasn't scolding her, therefore with confidence Aretha immediately ignored her boss' threat and looked back at the man beside her with hope.
"If you need someone to work with, I can do that. If you need someone who can play your woman or your wedding on paper as you say, then I can do that too."
"You said that if you didn't care who the woman was, as long as she could be co-opted, then nothing else would matter. That's why you're willing to accept my offer?"
This was the first time Aretha noticed the look on the face of the man named Elvan.
So far, Mr. Elvan has indeed come to this bar several times just to have a drink, or chat with either a friend or his best friend, Rangga.
but this was the first time Aretha watched the man's face up close.
How handsome is this man she will marry?
So far, Aretha hasn't paid much attention to the cold demeanor that Elvan always displays in front of other people.
but at that time he saw the man's indifferent attitude and the judging attitude he continued to show, by looking at Aretha up and down with great consideration, it seemed enough to make Aretha feel uncomfortable.
Since she was just a barmaid was that boy looking at her reproachfully?
"What's your name?" asked Elvan in a deep voice while looking at Aretha.
Aretha was stunned.
"Aretha. Aretha Anindia," he answered.
Aretha could feel her heart beating fast because she had been waiting impatiently for an answer from the man.
Even though he knew he wasn't in a favorable situation to volunteer, at least he still had to try all the possibilities, even if they weren't.
Rangga who saw the situation became a little r
