Falling for My Contractual Wife

“So something must have happened for her to want to move out today‘ Brian thought.

Brian knew that Grace was unwilling to tell him, so there was no way he would let her leave. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

He said in a low voice, “Grace, there’s only half a month left. I hope you can behave yourself! Don’t cause trouble for me again. Otherwise, I won’t give you a single cent”

Grace’s face was pale as she looked at him. “1…”

Brian stared at her face and said sarcastically. “Have you thought it through? Are you moving or not?”

Grace clenched her fists and lowered her eyes. “No, I’m sorry to disturb you tonight.” Her voice sounded desolate and lonely in the empty hot spring.

Brian’s heart skipped a beat. He looked at her deeply and turned to leave.

Grace rubbed her arms and suddenly felt that this place was very cold and scary. She hurriedly followed behind Brian and went back to her room.

Grace couldn’t fall asleep.

She tossed and turned but could not fall asleep. After turning off the lights, she felt that the room was too dark. She pulled open the curtains and the light from outside shone in. Then, she felt insecure looking out of the window, feeling as if someone would pop up outside.

She tossed and turned until one or two in the morning. Unable to resist her sleepiness, she gradually closed her eyes.

She did not sleep well and kept touching her stomach.

Suddenly, she felt that there seemed to be a sound coming from outside the door, like the sound of someone picking the

lock!

Grace wanted to run, but the room was so small that she could only escape through the window.

She wanted to get up, but her body seemed to have been frozen. She could not get up no matter how hard she tried.

At that moment, the lock detached with a bang.

She saw a scar–faced man wearing a cap enter. He was still wearing a black mask, and his expression was the same as when he was committing the robbery at Jacksonville.

However, this time, he had a shiny dagger in his hand.

Grace was so terrified that she wanted to scream for help, but she could not make a sound no matter how hard she opened

her mouth.

She watched as the scar–faced man’s ferocious face approached her with the dagger.

The dagger stabbed into her abdomen. She widened her eyes in fear and felt the small life in her body draining away bit by bit, but she was helpless to do anything.

In the end, Grace saw Louise wearing a wedding dress with a cold smile on her face. Louise was enjoying the night of Grace’s blood flowing like a river. Then, Louise turned around and held Brian’s arm as they walked into the church.

In the darkness, Grace suddenly opened her eyes. She sat up on the bed, turned on the bedside lamp, and panted desperately.

She looked around and touched her abdomen. She gradually returned to her scenes. Only then did she realize that she had

been dreaming.

Grace grabbed the collar of her shirt and closed her eyes tightly. The dream she had felt much too real for her,

She glanced at the time and was no longer feeling sleepy. The moon was hanging high up in the sky outside. Grace got up and went to the courtyard.

Looking up at the night sky, she suddenly wanted to get drunk and have someone tell her that the days she spent with

Brian were fake.

Grace sat on the steps, hugging her knees and curling up. After sitting outside for a long time, her feet s started to feel numb. Only then did she slowly get up and walk back to her room.

The next day, Grace’s biggest worry came true.

“Grace, I’ve bought plenty of products that remove formalin. Help me put them in the new house later.”

Grace took a deep breath and immediately became vigilant.

“Miss Adkins, I don’t know anything about formalin removal. Why don’t you find someone else?”
