Chapter 119
Falling for My Contractual Wife
Grace was stunned.
Justin felt a little uncomfortable. He straightened his back and looked at her seriously and intently.
âGrace, if you donât mind, Iâm willing to spend the rest of my life taking care of you. Are you willingâ
Grace was stunned for a long time. The setting sun scattered on the ends of Justinâs brown hair, coating it with a layer of golden warmth.
Is he confessing to me? Grace thought Grace was a little uncertain. She did not believe that a single young man like Justin would say that he would take care of her for the rest of her life when she was pregnant and divorced.
Justin was at a loss for what to do. He apologized to her hurriedly as if he was afraid of scaring her.
Iâm sorry. Was I in such a hurry that I frightened you?â
Grace lowered her eyes and shook her head. âDr. Vance, Iâm not worthy of being taken care of by you for the rest of my life.â
Justin frowned and looked at her seriously. âGrace, I wonât allow you to say that. Itâs not up to you to decide if itâs worth it or not. If I say itâs worth it, itâs worth it!â
Grace looked at Justin. Justinâs usually gentle eyes became hot at this moment as if they were filled.
with a raging fire.
He heart skipped a beat and she stood up in a panic. âItâs getting late. I want to go back and rest for a while.â
Justin pursed his lips and looked at Graceâs retreating back. Justinâs heart was pounding because of his confession just now.
He hurried after her. âIt doesnât matter. There is plenty of time. I can take my time, Justin thought.
On the second day of hospitalization, Daisy called.
Grace didnât pick up. She let her phone ring over and over again. There was a knock on the door.
Justin was holding a thermos in his hand. He was dressed in white as he stood at the door and looked at her with a smile. The scene was gentle and beautiful.
Justin paused at the door and walked into the ward. He placed the thermos on the cabinet and opened it, one layer after another.
âI asked the nanny at home to make some chicken soup. Try it.â
The fragrant smell of chicken soup hit Grace in the face. Grace happened to be hungry. When she smelled this, she drooled.
Justin scooped a spoonful and blew on it gently before bringing it to her mouth. âBe careful not to burn yourself.â
Grace took a sip. It was as if her taste buds had experienced something wonderful.
âDoes it taste good?â
Grace nodded heavily. âItâs delicious. Your nannyâs culinary skills are amazing.â
Justin smiled. âThen Iâll bring it for you every day from now on.â
Grace paused. âJustin, you donât have to do this. Iâ¦â
âWhat? Youâre not even going to give me a chance to pursue you?â
Graceâs face heated up and her mind went blank.
35 23 At that moment, her phone rang again. Grace came back to her senses and instinctively answered. the call.
As soon as she picked it up, Daisyâs sharp voice came through the phone.
âYou ingrate! Iâve raised you for more than twenty years! You didnât even answer your motherâs call! Are you not going to care whether your brother dies? Why are you so heartless?â
Grace frowned and moved the phone away, Dayâs roar continued to come from the receiver. âBrian has already sent the divorce agreement to our house! Hurry up and beg Brian! Do you really want to watch your brother die from illness? You evil creature!â
On the side, Justin could hear Daisyâs harsh voice, but he could not hear what Daisy said clearly.
Daisy did not hear Grace speak. After scolding Grace long enough, Daisy asked, âYou heartless.
ingrate! Say something! I asked you to say something! Are you mute? Why donât you die, you beast!â
Grace heard her endless cursing. Sometimes, she even wondered if she was really Daisyâs child!
