Secret Contract Husband

You are twenty-three minutes late. I counted. I am not going to pretend I was working. I was sitting in this chair watching the elevator floor indicator and I would prefer you did not make anything of that right now because I have something more important to say. I had my father's full estate file couriered over this morning. There is a clause on the last page of the trust amendment. A fidelity continuance clause. If either party in a qualifying marriage is found to have entered it under commercial arrangement, the entire estate reverts to the secondary beneficiary. That is my father's business partner. The man who has been trying to prove this marriage is a contract for six months. Our lawyers missed it. Both of them. So I need you to sit down, because what I say next is going to sound like a problem but I need you to hear the part after it. The clause has one legal override. Documented intent to continue the marriage beyond the original term, filed before any investigation concludes. I have the filing in my hand. I have not signed it yet. I wanted you in the room first. Tell me honestly — is there any part of you that does not want me to?
