A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 1229

He looked relieved after she found the bracelet.

Eileen saw his lips curve up into a gentle smile.

She felt a sharp pain in the heart as if a piece of broken glass had sliced into it. In the light, she saw the bracelet clearly.

It was engraved with "from Zora to Luke".

Suddenly, she understood why he was so furious as if the most important thing in his life was lost when it dropped into the lake.

The indescribable bitterness and pain spread through her.

She felt she helped her rival in love, though

Zora was dead.

She knew he couldn't swim and was afraid of water.

Thus, the moment she saw him shivering and trying to get into the lake, she didn't want him to suffer and pushed him away.

She jumped into the lake to find the bracelet for him, but she didn't expect it to b e a gift from Zora.

It was understandable that he acted like that.

Except for Zora's gifts, whose gifts would h e treasure as his life?

It was indeed masochistic for her to do that!

He didn’t ask her to get into the water. Instead, he reprimanded her and told her to go ashore. She insisted on jumping down t o find it.

Since she got to the shore, he had fixed his eyes on the bracelet without even looking a t her.

He didn't see her wet clothes.

Nor did he see her shuddering in the cold wind with her pale face and blue lips.

Eileen felt prick all over.

She drooped her hands, pinching her thighs fiercely. It hurt so much. He only cared about his bracelet, but never her safety.

Her life wasn't even worthy of a bracelet.
