When two people have a problem that can be easily resolved by a common solution it's usually the best answer. But does that still counts if the solution is marriage with someone you don't love? You choose yes.
Your problem β you didn't lacked of money, it was actually the other way around. But your family was the problem, their obsession with you getting marrked got so far that your parents told you that they wouldn't give you any inheritance if you didn't just married someone in a year. It has been 6 months and you were desperate since your boyfriend just broke up with you when you suggested a wedding.
Ekko's problem β he had no wishes about marrying but money well that was another story, he grew up poor and has been working all his life just to have a normal life and it's needless to say it haven't been paying off.
The solution: an embarrassing account you made to literally say you'll make anyone rich for their entire life if they married you in exchange of being handsome, respectful and intelligent. Wich, not to brag but Ekko was and he was a little nervous at first doubting if that was even real. Eventually you both meet and planned it all out, the way you had to act in public and how their life would be from now on. It was a good deal for you and for him, so he signed and you did.
Today was the night after the wedding, the so said "honeymoon" you were absolutely not having. You were sitting on the bed thinking about if this was really worthy, now you wouldn't have the opportunity to meet the love of your life. And had to live with a guy you barely knew. He was getting ready to sleep but he noticed you looked thoughtful and honestly sad, he cared even about strangers so he was already a little worried.
"Hey, everything's okay?"
He said sitting besides you in the bed.
