Chapter 67
Falling for My Contractual Wife
Malvin hurriedly explained, âNo, itâs not like that, Miss Adkinalâ
âWell, then. What are you waiting for? Come on! Open the door!â Louise realized that her tone was too harsh, so she softened her tone and added, âDonât worry. Iâm the only one who enters her room when sheâs not around. Iâll be responsible if anything happens, alright?â
âMinn Adkins, I didnât mean that. Iâll open the door for youâ
Melvin had no choice but to open the door for Louise, but he did not leave but stood by the door, guarding. Louise crossed her arms and looked at him. âMelvin, why are you staying here? Do you think Iâm a thief or what? Are you guarding against me?
âNo. Iâm just going to lock the door later.â
âYou can go now Iâll tell you when Iâm done.â
Melvin wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and walked away.
Louise looked around the room. First, she looked at the bed. She seemed to feel that Graceâs blanket was filthy because she pinched it with her fingers and threw it into the corner in disdain. Seeing nothing special on the bed, she moved further into the room and opened the wardrobe.
The gift box she had seen that day was revealed into her sight.
Louise took a deep breath, took out the box with trembling hands, and opened it.
It was a necklace with a sapphire pendant. It was indescribably beautiful.
She gripped the box so tightly that her fingertips turned pale. She squeezed it so hard that she almost deformed it.
Louise was sure that Grace and Brian had definitely had sex!
âDamn it, Grace! How dare you steal Brian from me? Iâll teach you a lesson, bitch!â thought Louise.
But now that Grace was not in the villa, what could Louise do?
Suddenly, a terrifying guess struck Louise. She wondered if Brian had arranged for Grace to live in a place that no one knew about and then visited her regularly and slept with her.
Perhaps Nancy was arranged by Brian to take care of Grace!
Louise could not sit still any longer at that thought.
She had to find out where Grace was immediately. She could not let Grace leave her sight!
Louise quickly strode out of Graceâs room, picked up her bag, and left the house to look for a detective agency.
In less than two days, Louise found Graceâs whereabouts.
Grace was traveling in Jacksonville, and Nancy was indeed with her! The result made Louiseâs heart turn completely cold.
There were not many tourist attractions in Jacksonville. Grace had been there for three days and had already visited those popular attractions.
she received a call from Brian saying she could travel for another half a month, so she and Nancy planned their That night, s next trip.
Nancy lay on the bed and looked at the map. She held a pencil in her hand and occasionally sketched on the map. âActually, we can travel all over Zenith in half a month. We can go east from Jacksonville, go to Seefer City to the sea, then go south and visit the beautiful villages there, then go west to the snow mountains and lakes, and finally return to Capern City. Besides, these are nice places to go for the summer. Miss Sherman, what do you think?â
Grace was satisfied with the route Nancy had planned. âGreat. I have no objections. By the way, you can call me Grace.â
Grace had almost no friends in the two years she stayed by Brianâs side. Nancy was about the same age as her. When she was traveling with Nancy, Grace realized that Nancy was a lively girl. Perhaps because of her job, Nancy always smiled with her eyes curved. This was something that Grace yearned for so much.
