Book:Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes' Darling Wife Published:2024-6-2

Estrella Berrocal was still in a daze when the cab arrived at the Dublin government.
He got out of the car for Adán Rouco and entered the Dublin government.
“Adam, what the hell are we doing here?”
Estrella Berrocal was a little afraid that this man would drag her into the government of another for no reason.
Adán Rouco had nothing to say all the way but said, “I don’t see a way in, help me get in.”
“… This way, come on, steps, slowly”.
Once inside, there were friends who worked for the Dublin government, and good greetings were exchanged with them.
Adán Rouco asked politely, “Hello, how do I get to the RegistroCivil, please?”.
Estrella Berrocal was stunned: “Adam, didn’t we get married a long time ago?”.
Why do we have to come to Ireland and get married again?
Estrella Berrocal was dragged by Adán Rouco to the RegistroCivil.
The staff saw them and asked, “Can I help you?”.
“On getting a license to marry.”
Estrella Berrocal was puzzled, looked at him with wide eyes and whispered, “Adam why do we need another marriage license?”.
Suddenly the official’s phone rang and he answered a call from someone who appeared to be from a very respectful source.
The official took the call and subconsciously looked at Adán Rouco with a better attitude.
“You two would like to receive an Irish marriage certificate, wouldn’t you?”.
Adán Rouco: “Yes”.
Estrella Berrocal was even more puzzled, why would she need a new Irish marriage certificate for no reason?
“And do you have the relevant documents with you? Passports and visas.”
Adán Rouco took them out of his pocket and Estrella Berrocal opened her eyes. Had he planned all this beforehand?
The official glanced at the names on their passports and asked with a smile, “Mr. Adam, Miss Star, how long do you want to be married?”
Estrella Berrocal was confused, was there a deadline to get married?
The official added: “If it is a one-year marriage, the registration fee is more expensive, the longer the marriage period the cheaper the fee, if it is a hundred years it will only cost 0, 60€.”
“…”
Estrella Berrocal looked at Adán Rouco and asked, “So, how much time do we choose?”.
Adán Rouco spoke in a serious tone: “One hundred years”.
“… Adam, we’re not really going to live that long.”
A hundred years from now, if they were still alive, they would all be old devils.
Adán Rouco’s eyes were deep and serious, and he stood up suddenly. Before Estrella Berrocal realized what he was about to do, she saw him kneel down, take her hand and say, “Miss Estrella Berrocal, do you want to be married to Adán Rouco for a hundred years? ”
Estrella Berrocal was stunned.
He did not expect Adán Rouco to propose to her here.
Adán Rouco had never proposed to her, and when he had obtained his license, it had been casual and with little ceremony.
“I … I …”
“No?”
“…”
I was so excited!
Estrella Berrocal became emotional with slightly reddened eyes and covered her mouth with one hand.
The employee next to him said, “Say yes! You will be happy for the rest of your lives.”
She choked back a sob: “Adán Rouco … I want, above all I want”.
How could I not want to.
Adán Rouco took the velvet box out of his pocket, opened it and inside was a diamond ring.
Only … the diamond in this ring … was too big!
Adán Rouco put the diamond ring on her and Estrella Berrocal cried and laughed and shouted, “It’s so big and heavy!”.
“You had been promised, ten carats.”
“…”
That time, she just mentioned it unintentionally, and he really took it seriously!
Wearing such a large diamond ring, I’m afraid no one would be able to see that she is so married that it is almost written on her face that it is from Adam Rouco!
When they checked in and left, the employee called back the person who had just called and said, “Mr. Esteban, the matter of Mr. Adán and Mrs. Rouco has been taken care of, please don’t worry.”

Leaving the government, Estrella Berrocal looked at the marriage certificate, which to be exact was a piece of paper.
“Adam, does this marriage for a hundred years … has any legal effect?”
Adam Rouco’s dark eyes were cold and sharp: “What, are you still thinking of divorcing me?”.
Estrella Berrocal frowned, her momentum weakened by half, and muttered, “I was just curious to ask…”
“But what if the locals, on a whim, or to save money, get this marriage certificate for a hundred years, and if they want to divorce in the middle of it?”
Adán Rouco: “You’re asking what you would do if you wanted to get divorced halfway through, aren’t you?”
“… he didn’t.” Estrella Berrocal whispered slyly.
Adam Rouco’s thin lips curved and a small smile appeared in his eyes as he put his arm around her and said, “If you break it, it will have no legal effect.”
Estrella Berrocal’s mouth twisted as if she were a child: “It’s illegal to break a marriage certificate, isn’t it?”.
“Rarely do you get too smart, breaking an Irish marriage certificate carries a heavy sentence.”
“…”
Estrella Berrocal hurriedly folded the marriage certificate, hid it in her pocket and put it away.
Adán Rouco would have laughed at her if he had seen her do this.
Walking down the Irish street, Estrella Berrocal felt her hands getting heavy and took off the large ten-carat diamond ring anyway. “This is too much!”
“Don’t you like it?”
“I like it, yes, it’s so rustic! I’m used to wearing the wedding ring you gave me before, it’s not too big and not too small, so I’ll save this one for important occasions to show it off!”
Adán Rouco was amused: “Showing off?
“Yes, my husband gave it to me! Look how my husband loves me, he only gives me diamond rings of ten carats or more! A one carat one is too small”.
Adán Rouco was tickled by her smug tone, and kissed her temple down: “A hundred carats is no problem if you want it.
“No, no, no, no, ten carats is enough to show off, a hundred carats … that’s not a diamond ring, that’s a very big rock!”.
Estrella Berrocal felt that Adán Rouco could have done something like buying a hundred carats of diamonds if she hadn’t prevented him!
After all, her husband was so rich!
Estrella Berrocal was thinking about the hundred-year contract when she came to a cherry tree and suddenly stopped to ask Adán Rouco: “What if you cheat on me or don’t love me anymore?”
It would have been better to leave that unfortunate marriage while it lasted.
Adán Rouco leaned over, kissed her lips and spoke softly: “With this marriage certificate, if I cheat on you, you can sue me. If I cheat on you, you can sue me until I go to jail.”
“Really, an Irish marriage certificate is that powerful?”
“But when it comes down to it, you’ll have to serve me as a jail.”
“You cheated on me and I’m going to send you to jail! You’re kidding!”
Estrella Berrocal growled softly and pushed him away, moving forward on her own, Adán Rouco followed and grabbed his hand again.
“Mrs. Rouco, you have me trapped”.
“Hm, rich men are bad, extra rich men like you are extra bad, I’ll have to watch out for you so you don’t fall in love with a secretary with big breasts and legs.”
“But now I’m blind, I can’t see the other side even though it’s beautiful.”
“… Suddenly I’m okay with you going blind”.
Mr. Adam clutched his forehead: “… Is there such a curse for the husband?”
“I’m thinking about you, see if you accidentally cheating. Cheating, you go to jail.”
“…”
The pit you dug for yourself, you will sleep on your knees for the rest of your life!
