Chapter 99
Falling for My Contractual Wife
[Do you have time to come to my room tonight?]
When Brian saw this message, his hand trembled and his phone almost fell to the ground.
Louise, who was eating beside him, looked at him suspiciously. âBrian, whatâs wrong?â
Brian shook his head. âIâm fine.â
However, his mind was filled with the line of words on the screen. âWhat does Grace mean? At nightâ¦
in her roomâ¦were these suggestive words an invitation? Brian thought.
Brian was a little distracted as he ate. After a few bites, he put down fork. âIâm full.â
Louise looked at Brianâs back as he went upstairs and then looked in the direction where Grace was at.
Louise felt that there was something wrong.
After Brian returned to his room, he took out his phone and sent Grace a message. [What time?]
Grace seemed to be holding her phone and waiting for his reply because she replied almost immediately. [As long as itâs convenient for you. Iâll wait for you.]
These words were sent from Graceâs phone, leaving Brian in slight disbelief.
Although Grace had always shown her love for him in the past, she had never said anything like this before.
Brianâs heart was beating a little fast. He glanced at the time. Why is it only seven oâclock?â Brian thought.
Downstairs, Grace was also anxiously looking at the time.
âBrian must be waiting for Louise to fall asleep before coming over, so Iâll have to wait at least until after eleven oâclock, Grace thought.
For Grace, every minute and second was torture.
Around ten oâclock, she received a text message on her phone. [Wait for me at the hot spring.]
Grace received the message and got up to go to the hot spring.
There was no one in the living room. Grace snuck into the hot spring.
After waiting for about five minutes, Brian came.
Brian had just showered and was standing in front of Grace in his bathrobe, his chin slightly raised.
âWhat is it?â
âFor the last few days remaining, I want to move out, Grace said.
Brian frowned hard. He did not expect Grace to ask him to meet her in the middle of the night only to make such a request!
His expression instantly turned cold. âWhat do you want?â
JMMM Grace saw the change in his expression and panicked. âJust make arrangements for me to stay in the same sportmenda before. I wonât run all over the place. You can even send people to monitor me 24/7!
Her anxious tone was enough to tell how eager she was to leave.
Brian said heavily, âReasonâ
He did not reject her iden immediately. If Grace could give him a convincing reason, Brian would consider it However, Grace did not know how to explain it. âAm I to tell him that I suspect the robbery in Jacksonville was done by people sent by Louise? Brian will never believe it. Am i to say that i am being targeted? That someone wants to harm me? He will probably think that I am being delusionall Even if he doesnât think that I must be crazy, he will tell me that the wa was the safest place to belâ Grace thought.
Seeing that Grace could not any a word for a long time, Brianâs face turned even colder. âSince you canât say anything, then stay herel Grace grabbed Brianâs clothes. âBrian.â¦â¦.
Brian turned around and looked at her with a deep gaze.
Grace begged, âI beg you. Can you let me move out?â
Her face was pale, her eyen filled with tearn. She was on the verge of collapse. Her small face was so pitiful that it made oneâs heart ache.
Brian narrowed his oyen. âShe has only gone out for a while today, yet sheâs making a fuss about moving out after coming back. What happened? Brian thought.
