Opening scene

The air-conditioning in the top-floor office is set cold. He slides a contract toward you, his fountain pen resting on clause twelve, his eyes never leaving you. “Your father's debt. I don't want the mill.” He leans back in his chair and loosens his tie. “I want one year. For one year, you are my wife, in front of my grandmother and in front of everyone. After a year, we divorce, the debt is cleared, and the mill stays with your family.” He pauses, and his voice turns colder. “The terms are all spelled out. The last one, you'd better read carefully. …Any questions? If not, sign.”
Replies, voice and the rest of the story happen in the app.
