A Crazy One-night Stand novel Chapter 58

Alina left the hospital and walked along the sidewalk with her hands in her pockets. Her life was in a mess. She had always treated Mike like a younger brother, but he actually had feelings for her. This gave her a lot of pressure. 

Of course, she would not accept Mike's feelings out of pity. So she had to let him down by telling him that she was married.

It seemed as if marriage was the only way to settle things once and for all! At the very least, she would not hurt anyone again. Besides, Scumbag needed a marriage too. 

She chewed on her lower lip which became red and swollen. 

A strong gust of wind blew. Dried leaves swirled around Alina as they fell. 

Alina took out her phone and found Wilson's number. She hesitated before finally calling him. 

Her call was quickly picked up.

"Hello." She heard Scumbag's voice when he picked up. Alina liked to hear his familiar, deep voice. 

"Scumbag, you told me you really need to get married. If we registered for marriage, I won't be an embarrassment to you, I won't burden you, and I won't put you in an unfavourable situation. Is that correct?"

"Yes," Wilson replied.

"Are you sure?" Alina asked again.

"I'm sure."

"Well, let's get married then!" Alina said as she gritted her teeth, "By the way, could you do me a favour?"

"Sure! What is it?" At the other end of the phone, Wilson's voice sounded cheerful. 

Alina said immediately, "Can you take some time off to accompany me to see Mike at the hospital?"

"Did he fall in love with you?" Wilson asked suddenly.   

Alina choked on her saliva and coughed loudly. 

Wilson spoke calmly on his end of the phone. "We should help each other with problems like these. We have agreed that after marriage, we can't flirt with other people or cheat on each other."

"I understand." Alina nodded.

She couldn't understand it before, but now she completely understood. It would be a disgrace if someone of Wilson's status were to have rumours of being played or two-timed!

"We'll get the marriage certificate tomorrow. After that, we will go to the hospital! Do we need to go to your house? I suggest we pay a visit to your mother, she might treat you better in the future!" Wilson said on the phone. He seemed to be in a good mood.

Alina bit her lower lip and asked, "Do you have that much time?"

"Sure." Wilson nodded and then glanced at the itinerary Simon had given him. However, it was packed!

"Alright then, come with me to my home!" After saying this, Alina gazed up towards the sky and breathed out a long sigh. 

Since her mother made a scene at the hospital, her attitude toward Alina had worsened. If Scumbag could accompany her home and show that she was really married, her mother might relent and scold her less after this. In fact, Alina was more concerned about her mother's health as she was constantly in a bad mood. 

"Okay, where will I pick you up tomorrow morning?" Wilson asked.

Alina thought carefully about it. "You could pick me up at my place. I'm at..."

"I know the location. See you tomorrow!" Wilson hung up in a hurry.

Alina frowned and stared at the phone in a daze.

Wilson had already called Simon. "Simon, rearrange my schedule. I won't be at the company all day tomorrow!"

Simon made a fuss on the phone. "But Mr Wilson, there are several agendas that are very important tomorrow!"

"Postpone them to the day after tomorrow!" Wilson's tone was definite.

Simon continued, "Mr. Wilson, the Bryant Group will sign their contract with us tomorrow. The president of Bryant Group is unsociable and eccentric. He had emphasized that you must attend the ceremony personally."

Wilson frowned. "You sign it. If he doesn't want to sign the agreement without me, just forfeit the contract!"  

"But the project is worth 500 million dollars!"
