Superstar Husband & Genius Wife - Chapter 1：Our Marriage Must Be a Secret

“Uh… where is this?” Carolina slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was a room that was unfamiliar to her. However, she was a little grateful for seeing the figure of the red-haired man sitting beside her bed while talking on the phone.

The man suddenly felt someone staring at him, he glanced at Carolina and sure enough that woman was currently staring at him.

“Let’s continue the conversation later, there’s something come up,” the man said, then turned off the telephone line.

“Ah… thank God you are awake, now you are in the hospital, you fainted. You make me worry,” said Ethan – the man earlier – who was sitting next to her.

“Oh, I see,” Carolina answered.

There was a moment of silence before Ethan finally took Carolina’s hand. Carolina looked at him with a terrible look as if he was a terrible creature and tried to release the man’s grasp. However, Ethan still held it tight.

“Let’s get married… Ouch!” after Ethan let out his proposal words, Carolina’s other hand immediately hit his head.

“Are you sick? Do you also need to be treated here? ” said Carolina rudely then pulled back her hand.

“I’m serious! Let’s get married!” said Ethan then he said something again. Something that made Carolina look at him with a look of disbelief.

The atmosphere was quiet again for a moment. Neither Ethan nor Carolina said anything. Until finally there was a knock on the door of Carolina’s room.

“Hello, the patient is awake. How are you?” suddenly two women came inside. One of them wore a white suit and was in his thirties and one was a nurse who was around mid-twenties.

“I’m fine, doc. Can I go home?” Carolina asked the person who asked her.

“Looks like you’re fine. You can go home.” the doctor said after checking Carolina.

“She’ll stay for another night to make sure she’s fine,” Ethan suddenly stopped the doctor, making Carolina immediately throw an unpleasant look at Ethan.

“Ah, you guys…” suddenly the nurse who came in looked at Ethan and Carolina. As if to ask what is the relationship between them. The doctor who was there glared at the nurse.

“She…” Ethan hasn’t had time to explain the relationship between them. Suddenly Carolina immediately interrupted it.

“I am an intern at Mr. Ethan’s office. Mr. Ethan is a good boss, so he still pay attention to me even though I’m just an intern. You all know Mr. Ethan went to Indonesia to take over temporary of their family business. In fact, there is an article that came out about it,” Carolina answered quickly.

“Ah! Turns out you’re really a Korean actor huh? Sung Woo right? Who plays in -My Wife’s Man- drama, right?” the female doctor was suddenly enthusiastic. Since she saw the man she felt like she knew him and it turned out that she was right! The man is an actor in the drama she has been following for the past few weeks.

“Yes doc, I play the role of Sung Woo in the drama My Wife’s Men. Thank you for watching the drama,” answered Ethan with a smile.

“Did the filming of the drama finish and you were already here? Tomorrow is episode 8, right? Then does the bad woman back to her husband or not?” the doctor asked, she was so curious.

“The drama shooting isn’t over yet, today in Korea it will air episode 8, maybe in Indonesia it will air tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and about the story, doctor can just watch it!” answered Ethan still with a smile.

“So doctor also apparently watched that drama huh? Indeed the drama is really good! By the way..” the nurse started to smile shyly and pulled out her cellphone.

“Ethan oppa ~ can we take a picture together?” the nurse asked, smiling shyly.

“Ah… yes,” the nurse finally smiled and began to do a selca together with Ethan.

“Doctor, can you take a picture of us, please?” feeling not enough with selca photos, the nurse asked the doctor for a picture of the two of them.

The doctor could only shake her head when see the nurse’s behavior, but she still took the nurse’s cellphone to take a picture of the two of them..

The nurse not waste that opportunities. Se immediately hugged Ethan’s arm and rested her head on the man’s shoulder. The nurse’s movements looked smooth like she was already an expert at doing such photo styles.

“Okay three… two… one… Here, please take a photo of me too, okay? Ethan oppa~” the doctor asked shyly.

“Ah doctor, oppa is a term for older men. Doctor is older than Ethan oppa, so you can call him oppa” answered the nurse, but still accepted the doctor’s cellphone given to her.

“It’s okay, all those handsome guys are called oppa!” the doctor answered. Ethan just smiled and did a photo together with the doctor. However, unlike the nurse whose position was too intimate, the doctor only posed normally.

“Then excuse us first! Here is a prescription. Mr. Ethan can filled it at the hospital’s pharmacy.” said the doctor then handed over the paper she had wrote on before.

“Yes doc! Thank you!” answered Ethan with a smile after receiving the prescription.

When the doctor and the nurse had left, Ethan sat next to Carolina’s bed and held her hand.

“Carolina, let’s get married!” said Ethan again. Carolina looked at him for a moment, this time she didn’t brush aside the sturdy hand that held it gently.

“All right, but there are conditions,” Carolina answered after taking a deep breath.

“What the-, married is married! What are conditions you talking about!” Ethan protested, he immediately disagreed.

“Then I don’t want to get married!” Carolina replied then pulled back her hand and took her cellphone. Se began to type something.

“What are you doing? Here we are discussing something serious! ” Ethan protested again when he saw Carolina engrossed in her cellphone.

“Check the prices of motorcycle taxis online. What the f-! 25 thousand! How come the promo code is already used? I haven’t used it yet! Let’s try the other application, maybe it’s cheaper,” Carolina muttered. Ethan looked at her in disbelief. How dare she even check the prices of motorcycle taxis online while her husband is here and bring a car? Okay correction, her future husband.

After being lost in thought for a while about their wedding plans, Ethan then glanced at Carolina, who was still busy with her cellphone.

“Oh my! The other one is 27 thousand! Very expensive! I have a little money left… Hey! Give me back my cellphone!” Ethan snatched Carolina’s cellphone from her hand, stood away from her bed and looked at her in despair. Looks like he really has to be extra patient with his future wife.

“You will go back to the office with me! Period! There are no conditions!”

“Okay, give me my cellphone back!” Carolina who answered immediately made Ethan a little surprised. it’s unusual for this woman to immediately agreed, she did not protest as usual.

“Well, back to the office must pay a minimum of 25 thousand if you ride a motorcycle taxix online! It’s very loss! I better come along with you, it can be free,” Carolina thought with her own smiles.

“Here is your cellphone, just come back with me, ok? I’m watching you! ” Ethan then sat down near her bed and turned Carolina’s cellphone back.

“Ehem, about earlier, about our marriage…”

“I want to, but there are conditions!” interrupted Carolina before Ethan finished his sentence.

Ethan took a deep breath, it seemed like the woman’s decision in front of him was completely unanimous. “What are the conditions?”

Carolina looked at Ethan right in the man’s pupils, trying to find out if there was a bit of seriousness there.

Stared like that, Ethan did not dodge, instead he holding Carolina’s gaze with gently and deeply.

“Ahh, why does this have to happen?! If last month you didn’t go to that jerk’s birthday party, surely this wouldn’t have happened!” Carolina thought. She really did not know what to do, various thoughts and emotions raging inside her.

Seeing that Carolina was silent again, Ethan took Carolina’s hand again and locked it with his fingers.

“Wait, why are you so sure this child is yours?” interrupted Carolina. She had been too shocked to hear Ethan said that she was exhausted until she finally passed out and after being examined by a doctor, it turned out there was a “little hero” who was currently in her stomach.

She is pregnant!

Now she finally realized why that man insisted on marrying him. That man was convinced that the “little hero” in her stomach was his!

“Why? It is obvious when we do it, it’s your first experience. So after we did it, have you done it with other men too? Ouch!” Carolina’s other hand directly hit his head, again!

“Of course this is yours, you stupid red apple!” said Carolina.

Well, at least the father of his child isn’t as stupid and jerk as she was afraid. If it’s another man maybe they will give a reason: “we only did it once and even though it was your first experience, you could have done it with others after with me”

Uh… just thinking about that makes Carolina shudder.

“Because it’s my child, so let’s get married! This is the fourth time I’m saying let’s get married! I even proposed to you four times!”

“Wrong, you say it in ordering way, not by asking. So it is not considered as a proposed,” said Carolina.

Ethan was silent for a moment, indeed he had been like “ordering” Carolina to marry him, not “asking” but still for him he had proposed to her! After all, hadn’t that woman agreed to marry him but on condition? Then why does she now want him to say it by “asking”? You weird woman!

“Huftt… will you marry me, live old with me and raise our children, Carolina?”

“Well, now this is what proposed should be. OK, I will marry you, but there are conditions.”

“What are the conditions, babe?”

“Eww, first don’t ever call me babe!” Carolina answered.

“Then, baby?”

“Not!”

“Darling? Sweety? Dear? Chagia? Honey? Bu-in? Wife?” Ethan asked, winking. Trying to tease that woman.

“Not! Eww, just call me by my name, after all we have not officially married” Carolina replied, she can not stand anymore to the man cheesiness!.

Ethan smiled at Carolina’s adorable face when he teased her. Looks like their newlyweds life will be really fun.

“Okay, Lina, what’s the second condition?” Ethan asked seriously this time.

“Our marriage must be a secret!”

“Hah? What? try saying it one more time? ” asked Ethan who thought he heard it wrong.

“Our marriage must be a secret.”

“What the-, are you kidding me?! This is not a novel or drama, Carolina!” answered Ethan, he really didn’t expect that woman would ask for such strange conditions,

He initially thought she would ask for conditions such as, “I want us to stay alone, not living with in-laws,” or maybe like, “I can’t cook, so don’t force me to go to the kitchen,” or maybe like, “let’s announce our marriage, calling reporters and hold a lavish party, you are a popular celebrity right now, it will definitely be shocking!” It’s not nonsense like our marriage to be a secret, what kind of nonsense is this.

“If you don’t want to, then i don’t want to get married,” Carolina replied indifferently, making Ethan dumbfounded.

“Hey woman! Right now you are pregnant, and I want to be responsible! What is that if you don’t want to, then i don’t want to get married” thought Ethan, who had no idea what she was thinking.

Ethan took a deep breath, trying to be patient, but after he thought about it, his future was just strange.

Actually he could have been irresponsible but lately his mother often asked him to get married because she wanted to hold her grandchildren soon. In fact, he was often told to immediately stop being a celebrity because she afraid her son would be single for too long, even though he was only 24 years old now!

“Fine, but you must promise first that we really get married! Not like stories in dramas or novels that are contract marriage, okay?!” Ethan asked to make sure. Somehow he had a hunch his future wife would say something like that.

“Of course, you think just because you’re an actor, your life will be like dramas?” Carolina replied fiercely.

“It turns out you still remember that I was an actor, an actor who last year got the best new actor award, so why do you even want our marriage to be a secret? Shouldn’t I the one who said that?”

Ethan was truly amazed by that woman thoughts. Shouldn’t he the one who said that? Considering his current job as a celebrity? Why did she the one who said it?

“Or you have a guy that you really love, huh? Or maybe a fiance or husband? Eh, but apparently not, you did it for the first time with me… ouch!” again, Carolina hit Ethan’s head

“You deserved it! Once again you said first time, I beat you up!” said Carolina, who looked annoyed, though in her heart she was truly embarrassed. Why does that guy always talk about it! You stupid red apple!

“About why our marriage must be kept a secret, well, it is up to me, so are we going to get married or not?”

Ethan sighed and exhaled.

Is he make a right decision to marry the woman who hit him three times today?

After all, the woman is pregnant with his child, right?

Seeing Ethan who looked thoughtful made Carolina a little nervous but she didn’t show it.

“Yes Lina, you’ve made the right decision, no matter what happens you have to keep a low profile! Ah sh*t, if only last month you really didn’t go to that jerk’s birthday party. Ah, never mind, single mom or be a wife,” Carolina thought.

“So? Are we going to get married or not?” Carolina asked once more.
