Chapter 203
Falling for My Contractual Wife
Brian still ignored her.
Ava called out twice again. âBrian? Brian, whatâs wrong?â
She reached out and waved her hand in front of him.
Brian blinked and looked up at her. He did not miss the expectant look in her eyes.
When he saw her face, he suddenly felt very frustrated. He did not answer her question but said gloomily, âGo to the finance department immediately to settle your paycheck. You donât need to come to work from now on â
Ava was stunned. âBrian⦠Brian, whatâs wrong? What did I do wrong?â
Brian looked at her gloomily. âDidnât I tell you that your position is only temporary?â
Ava was dumbfounded. She was at a loss as she asked, âDid I break into your office and make you angry? I knocked on the door and only came in because you didnât answer⦠Brian, I was wrong. I wonât make any mistakes in the future. Could you please not chase me away?â
Brian became even more frustrated when he heard her voice. He grabbed the file on the table and threw it at her. âGet lost!â
âAh!â
The edge of the file scratched her check. Ava covered her face and roared at him while crying, âI know why youâre angry! Isnât it because Grace is dead? That serves her right!â
Brian suddenly raised his head and looked at her. His gaze was as fierce as a demon that had walked out of hell.
He suddenly stood up and walked toward her. âSay that again.â
Ava had never seen Brian like this before. She retreated in fear.
Brian suddenly grabbed her neck and narrowed his sharp eyes furiously. âWho told you that sheâs dead? Who told you that sheâs dead?â
Ava felt suffocated. Her face turned red as she slapped his hand desperately.
Brian suddenly let go of her. âGet lost! Donât let me see you again!â
Ava coughed so hard that she choked on her tears. She glanced at him, turned around, and stumbled away.
Ava walked out of the office with a sinister smile on her face as she wondered, âLooks like even God is helping me. Now that Grace is dead, as long as Louise doesnât return at this time, Iâll have a chance to make Brian fall in love with me!
The various apps on the phone were delivering news about the plane crash every day, but Brian had never clicked open a single one.
He didnât even want to look at his phone.
After work, I drove back to the villa dully.
The house was extremely quiet He stood in the living room and thought he saw her coming out of the kitchen with the dishes. She smiled at him gently. âYouâre back.â
He subconsciously grunted in agreement.
Suddenly, the figure flashed and disappeared from his sight.
Brianâs body trembled. Only then did he realize that he was hallucinating.
He raised his hand and pressed the corners of his eyes. He told himself that it was normal for him to feel a little sad for Grace, who had shared a bed with him. She was just an interlude in his life, so she didnât matter to him.
Perhaps after a while, he would completely forget about her.
Melvin walked over. âMr. Brian, itâs time to eat.â
Brian glanced at the food on the table and said calmly, Tm not hungry. You guys eat.
Brian turned around and went upstairs. At that moment, he heard two maids discussing.
âI have a friend who just got married. The couple took this plane to South City to take wedding photos. I didnât expect such an accident to happen. I saw some videos posted by the locals on the Internet. The passengers are probably all dead.â
