Taeri woke up early that morning to get ready for school and to prepare breakfast for Jake. She looked at the school uniform that was on her body.

Even her parents were able to move Taeri to attend Jake's school. The easier reason they go to school together but Jake refuses.

What if his schoolmates knew? It could be a fuss of a rich family child like Jake having a wife who studies at the same school. Probably could be included in one of the biggest scandals.

Getting married at the age of 18 is indeed risky. But Taeri still moved to the same school. That was one of the reasons Jake hated her.

"Good morning Young Lady. Please be seated." said a maid.
Taeri was a little surprised to see Jake who was already at the dining table, neatly dressed with a tie. He had time to think like other men.

She doesn't like getting up early and late for school. Immediately erasing her daydream Taeri took her place.

"What do you want to eat?" about Jake without taking his eyes off the phone screen. He may hate Taeri but at the dinner table he is still thinking about what Taeri wants to eat.

Taeri bit her lip, "toast?"

Jake just nodded and he turned to the maid there. Understanding the eye signal she immediately headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Taeri.

So the two of them lived with a few more helpers. Jake put his phone on the table and glared at Taeri.

"We need to talk, Kang Taeri." Jake said and Taeri just nodded.

Jake took something from his school bag and placed it in front of Taeri. The gray file is seen as strange by Taeri, many questions arise

"What is this?"

"Read and confront everything in it." turning her head to Jake's direction again.

Taeri just obeyed and she opened the file to read its contents. Almost choked to see the words that had been printed in it.

MARRIAGE AGREEMENT BETWEEN JAKE SIM & KANG TAERI

i. Keep relationships secret from people-no one else needs to know.

ii. Both are free to do what they like. Without the knowledge of family members
respectively.

iii. Kang Taeri needs to get up early to wake Jake Sim. No need to prepare breakfast except
ordered.

iv. Learning together is mandatory!

v. The deal will be canceled after Jake Sim divorces Kang Taeri.

vi. Jake Sim and Kang Taeri can add rules upon agreement between the two
party.

p/s: this agreement can only be changed by Jake Sim.

Grinning Taeri read the agreement she could say it was accurate and concise. It doesn't take much time to digest all that. Once read she already understands.

Taeri looked up at Jake.

"Are you ready?" Taeri asked slowly. She tried to control the tone of her voice from sounding like it was vibrating.

She didn't want to look weak in front of Jake. Maybe it's not time yet. Taeri needs to strengthen herself.

"It's a win-win situation." Jake replied indifferently. He retrieved the gray file.

Taeri knows this is all fair but she doesn't like it. It was as if she was being gambled on by her own family and husband. Taeri is unable to fight so she just relaxed at what Jake has set.

The discussion came to a halt when the toast Taeri had requested was already served. Jake enjoys toast with scrambled eggs only. And scrambled eggs only.

Taeri thought that was Jake's favorite meal.

"There's one thing I forgot to say." added Jake after they finished breakfast.

He stood up to put his school uniform on his body. Then a school bag is slung over his shoulder. Jake looked sharply into his eyes Taeri.

"You have a personal driver-you're free to go where you want to go. Never use my car. Last but not least, no one can know about us. Especially Yuna." Jake said before he stepped out to go to school.

Taeri just kept quiet while staring at the dining table quietly. She misses the atmosphere of her home even though her parents rarely eat together.

At least he felt at home. Not like this, it feels lonely and desolate.
