The President's Accidental Wife

Chapter 123

Swiftly, he looked to one side, his lips twitched, and subconsciously replied, "I went to sign a contract.."

"You went to sign a contract? Do you do that in a private box at the Opera? And with Raine too?"

Deliberately looking puzzled, she questioned him with suspicion. Then, she gave him a good stare.

She wanted to find out how he would respond.

'Signing a contract? Who was he trying to fool?’

Mark looked back, and their gaze met.

He kept quiet but looked at her with his eyes halfopened.

Summer could clearly see her tiny reflection through his dark pupils. Although small, it was very much

in focus.

Her gaze was indescribably oppressive, but she remained calm and put on a faint smile. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"No need to overthink. Jazz and I were just a few steps away from you. As we were leaving, I

coincidentally saw you both. Also, there was a bouquet of lilies on the table."

She described everything she saw and left no stone uncovered.

"What are you trying to say..." Mark stammered as he looked at her.

Summer picked up the glass on the table to warm her hands. She answered, "One more thing, whether

or not you know it. Your past romance with Raine, I am aware of it."

His eyes twitched, he pressed his lips tightly, and stared at her. "Mrs. Valentine, what else do you know

that I'm not aware of?"

"Nothing else, only this. I found out by accident. Furthermore, it's not my habit to probe into Mr.

Valentine’s private affairs."

Every word she said, she said it slowly and clearly.

"By accident? Isn't it too much for such a coincidence?" He narrowed his eyebrows.

"Are you doubting my words?" She laughed, "Indeed, even I feel that it is too much to be a

coincidence. But a fact is a fact. As a teacher, I have a character to preserve."

Mark's tone turned cold. "So, what now?"

She unconsciously tightened her grip on the glass. His words hurt, yet she remained steadfast.

"What I want to know is the kind of relationship you have with Raine. When we were in Norwood, did

you leave me by the roadside and immediately returned to Grudin North because you received news

that she was in trouble?"

He stared at her quietly for a long while. His face turned darker, then, he replied, "What has this got to

d o with you?"

What has this got to do with you...’

Such simple words, yet Summer felt like something pierced through her heart and it sent shivers across

her entire body.

"I am the one who you call Mrs. Valentine. So, tell me, what has this got to do with me?"

"Mrs. Valentine, maybe you had forgotten something... ..." he continued in a deep voice, "Do you

remember the reason we got married?"

Stunned, she said nothing.

"It is all for the sake of the child in you that I married you. You are just a stray being. As for my private

affairs, you have no right to question me. Do you understand?" Mark uttered. 1

Trembling, she felt her dry lips and sneered," Understood, Mr. Valentine."

All this while, she had thought that 'Mr. Valentine', or ' Mrs. Valentine' was such a wonderful address.
