Falling for My Contractual Wife

Grace sat across from him, maintaining a respectful yet distant expression on her face.

She didn't leave first but sat there quietly, waiting.

Finally, Casper couldn't hold on any longer. He stood up and said, "I'll leave the check here. If you've made up your mind, just write the amount on it."noveldrama

After saying that, he turned around and took a few steps, only to hear the sound of paper being torn behind him.

He paused for a moment and left the coffee shop in anger.

Grace threw the check into the trash can.

She stared blankly out the window, thinking, 'Brian, this is all I can do.'

After dinner, Casper stopped Brian. "Brian, I have something to tell you. Sit down for a moment."

Brian sat on the sofa, silent.

Casper brought out many photos.

"Brian, take a look at these. These are all the ladies I've chosen for you. They're from the best families in Capern City, and they're all very beautiful," Casper said. Brian's gaze turned cold as he said, word by word, "I'm not interested."

Casper glanced at him coldly, ignoring his resistance, and continued, "This one is Marley Langley, the daughter of the Langley family. She's twenty-four this year..." Grace looked at the photos for a while, then took Austin upstairs indifferently.

Brian clenched his fists and looked at their disappearing figures.

Upstairs, in Austin's room.

"Mom, does great-grandpa not like me?" Austin asked.

Grace thought for a moment and said, "Austin, in this world, no matter how outstanding or likable a person is, they can't make everyone like them.

"We can't control what others think, so just remember to do what you should do. Understand?"

Austin seemed to understand. She probably understood what her mother meant. Casper didn't like her.

Although she felt a little disappointed, Austin quickly accepted it.

After putting Austin to bed, Grace opened the door and saw Brian waiting for her at the door.

"Grace, don't take what Casper said to heart. I won't listen to anything he said," Brian said.

He was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he explained anxiously. Grace lowered her eyelids.

She understood that the more Brian cared about her in front of Casper, the more detrimental it was to him.

Nelson had entered the Francis family, and he knew very well how to please Casper.

If Brian continued to defy Casper at this time, and Nelson stirred up trouble, Casper might make even more outrageous demands.

Thinking of this, Grace looked at

Susider

Brian and said indifferently, "Actually, I think you should seriously those ladies arranged for you"

Brian looked at her serious face, stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Grace,

are you jealous?"

Grace looked at him intently. "I'm

not. I'm speaking to you very seriously don't think you should waste any more time on me. We can't be together anyway. You should consider the marriage"

Brian narrowed his eyes, staring firmly at her face. "What about you? You want

me to get married, but what about you?"

Grace's eyes flashed. "I have my plans."
