Arwen felt so wrong to demand a marriage certificate from a stranger, but if not him, she would have looked for someone else. Either way, she would have ended up embarrassed.
Aiden visibly hid his smile, prompting Arwen confirm her words. "I am not joking. I just answered to you honestly. I want a marriage certificate today. If you are willing to get one with me –"
"Are you sure?" he suddenly interrupted her midway, his gaze turning sharper with scrutiny.
Arwen felt warning bells ringing in her ears. Her consciousness urged her to reconsider, but remembering the reasons behind her bold decision, she resolutely chose to ignore them.
"If I haven't been sure, I wouldn't have asked you," she replied without any hesitation, adding, "But it's fine if you don't agree. I need to get the certificates today, so I will look around. I am sure I will find someone who will agree."
