Trial Marriage Husband : I Am CEO's Plaything

She knows her friend is a woman who is tough and doesn't cry easily. Wherever Andien is, the people around her will laugh out loud because they are amused by her presence or the jokes that she makes.

But now, Andien next to her is someone she hardly recognizes. Her face looks thin, her cheekbones stand out not because of a healthy diet but the lack of food and the burden that she has to bear alone. Not to mention her empty eyes.

The woman lifted her face, and showed her reddened eyes.

"Lisa, I don't want anything to happen to my mother! I just want my mother to be healthy again like before. I will never give up on her recovery. I'm willing to sell myself, marry a rich foreign guy, anything just to save her. The important thing is that my mother can return to being healthy…"

Again, the friend she knows cannot possibly marry a foreign man just for money. She still clearly remembers that her friend will not marry. Her excuse was that all boys are trash!

But Lisa can understand why Andien chose to take this path. If she were in the same position, it is certain that she would marry any man if it meant that she could save her mother's life.

Lisa's heart felt like it was breaking into pieces when she saw Andien's reddened nose and eyes. At this moment, she hated herself and the situation because she couldn't help Andien at all. 

"Sorry, I'm so sorry that you have to experience this. I'm sorry that I can't help you and your mother with anything. I can only pray that goodness will always be on your side."

"Hey, don't apologize to me like that. You didn't do anything wrong, what are you apologizing for? This is also my family's problem, and even if you want to help, you can't do anything."

Andien wiped the tears that rolled down her cheeks. Every now and then her chapped lips let out a sob that made Lisa's heart pierce.

Lisa bit her lower lip and asked, "Now, tell me about the man who will be your husband tomorrow. Where did you meet him? Did he really want to help you pay for your mother's hospital expenses?"

"Lately, I've been thinking about stealing money from a bank. But what's crazy, I don't want to go to jail! My brother couldn't bear to see my mother and I live like this, but he couldn't do anything either. So he gave me the idea to marry this guy because he's my friend's friend, and he asked us to meet. Luckily, the guy just agreed to marry me."

Andien sobbed a little, "He's quite far from here, but it's just okay. My future husband is the CEO of a fairly large e-commerce company in Indonesia. He said later when we were officially married, he would immediately bear all the burden of my mother's hospital fees."

"I have no other choice but to marry him. I just want my mother to be healthy again, I still need her. Instead of stealing money or something else, I'd rather just marry a rich guy, Lis..."

"What's the name of your future husband, Ndien?" Lisa asked anxiously. 

"His name is Devan Orlando. His family is rich, I mean, he's been rich since he was little. And now he's building his own company, which means he's getting richer. If you look at his house, there is even a money printing machine!"

"Even though we've only met a few times, I can see that he is a good guy. He's a polite person too. Every time I see him, he always brings me food, if not flowers. Well, that's it. So you don't have to worry about me, I'm fine."

Lisa listened to Andien's long explanation in silence. Even though her friend always insisted that she was fine and this was the path she chose, Lisa still felt uncomfortable. Is Devan Orlando the right guy for her friend? What if the guy is just playing around and wants to do something behind all this?

Lisa looked down, not daring to look Andien in the eye. The time they were friends allowed the two women to read what each other was thinking. She wouldn't let Andien know what's going through her mind right now.

Until now, Lisa still didn't think that her close friend would get married tomorrow. In the past, she always asked Andien to go on blind dates or use online dating applications. But her efforts are always in vain. And now her friend, who is pretty much against dating, will be married tomorrow!

Lisa doesn't want any man to make Andien feel what she's been feeling all this time. She'd never let Devan Orlando, the man who will become her friend's life partner, hurt Andien's heart. If she hears that Devan has made one small mistake, she will not hesitate to kill him with her bare hands!

Even though Lisa didn't really agree with her friend getting married, especially to a foreign man, she couldn't do anything about it. How could she forbid Andien to marry a rich man? Can she cover all the costs that Andien has to bear? The answer is no.

For a few moments, the family room was silent. All that could be heard were the occasional sobs that still escaped Andien's lips. Lisa's hand, which had been stroking Andien's back, stopped because of the many questions that filled her brain.

Not long after, Lisa pulled Andien's arm and hugged her tightly. She rested her chin on Andien's head and took a deep breath. Lisa can only hope that luck and safety will always follow her friend wherever she goes.

"Since you have chosen this path, I can do nothing but pray for the best for you. But remember, if that guy does something inappropriate to you, tell me! I will go straight to your house and punch him in the face!"

Hearing that made Andien chuckle a little. She let go of her friend's arms and pushed Lisa gently.

"What are you talking about..."

"Well, I'm serious," said Lisa while frowning. "If that guy annoys you, you have to tell me right away! I don't care if I'm working or not, I'll just go straight to your house and punch him in the face, or even cut his genitals!"

It had crossed Lisa's mind to forbid Andien from marrying a foreign man. She could have borrowed some money from Oscar and returned it in settlements. However, Lisa did not voice her suggestion to Andien. 

Now, Lisa and Oscar were nothing but William's parents. They weren't close enough for her to borrow a large sum of money from the man. Where will she want to put her face later?

It seems that marrying a rich man is the only right way for Andien.. After all, they're only married for money, not for love. So why should Lisa worry that her friend will be heartbroken because of Devan, the rich foreigner?
