Chapter 1

My fiancée and I lined up to get our marriage certificate in front of City Hall.

Suddenly a boy ran over, hugged his fiancée's legs and called her "Mom".

I thought it was a liar, but my fiancée picked up the boy with a loving look on her face.

"This child is an accident. After having him five years ago, Owen Scott took him abroad. I have never seen him. I just found out that they are back."

"Now that Owen has returned, there will be a lot of rumors about a single father with a child. I have to give them a legitimate identity as father and son."

As I stared in astonishment, Owen came over.

His fiancée held hands with him, looking very sweet.

I asked calmly, "So?"

The fiancée said, "I have to get the marriage certificate with Owen. As for the two of us..."

"Since we're here, why don't you take a photo with me in front of City Hall? You can post it on your Moments to show off."

Owen raised his phone to us and said proudly, "Eggplant!"

My fiancée comforted me and said, "Don't worry, you are the only one I love. I just treat him as a family member."

"During this time, I want to make it up to the kids and pretend to be a couple with Owen."

"After all, the child is innocent. He has been without a mother. It's so pitiful. I don't want to cause him any trauma in his childhood."

"Let's postpone our wedding date. When the child is older, I will tell him the truth and give you a grand wedding."

The three of them, loving each other, went to get their marriage certificate.

I took out my cell phone and called Sophia Harrison, who had been pursuing me for ten years.

"I'm at the entrance of City Hall, and I need a partner to get the certificate. Want to come?"

⋯⋯⋯⋯

"My dear Master Martin, why do you have to arrange a surprise marriage? I'm overseas and just got off the plane..." Sophia's voice on the phone sounded helpless.

I was stunned: "Okay, forget it."

Sophia, who was calm just now, suddenly became anxious: "No, wait for me, hurry back before City Hall closes. Whoever changes his mind is a puppy."

After hanging up the phone, I sighed slightly and planned to find a place to rest for a while.

At this moment, I heard an unhappy voice not far away: "Lucas Martin!"

I looked up and saw my fiancée, Victoria Lane.

They have already received the certificate.

Victoria held the child in one hand and held Owen with the other. They were a harmonious family of three.

She walked up to me, put the child down, and whispered with an unhappy look on her face: "Why are you still staying here?"

I answered honestly, "Wait for someone to get the certificate."

Victoria got even angrier: "Why are you being so sarcastic? I've already explained it to you. I just found out the child is back. Who hasn't clicked on it yet?"

I nodded: "I understand."

Victoria pushed me and said, "Since you understand, just go home quickly. Don't make such a scene in front of the children."

I shook her hand off and said seriously, "I'm really waiting for someone to get the certificate."

Victoria's face darkened. "Lucas, I'm telling you one last time. If you continue like this, it will only make me hate you more."

At this time, Owen came over cautiously and asked, "Is Lucas angry because he didn't get the certificate?"

He took out the red marriage certificate and stuffed it into my hand: "How about this, you and Victoria take a photo holding up the marriage certificate."

"The cover is the same anyway. As long as they don't open it, no one will know whose name is inside."

I didn't catch it and the marriage certificate fell to the ground.

Owen squatted down to pick up the marriage certificate with grievance, and said with a look of self-blame: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought the child back..."
