A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 1403

Her chest heaved.

Suddenly, she had an impulse to give in, but she knew she couldn't.

"Do you know why I tricked you into coming back?" she asked, pushing him away.

"Because Brad can't leave his father. You told me that."

Eileen said, "That's just one of the reasons. There's another one."

Luke's heart pounded as he asked, "What do you mean?"

He thought, 'She must have found that she can't live without me and that how good I am. She wants to make up with me.'

"I have cancer."

Eileen said slowly, "It's in the middle stage, so you have to come back and take care of Brad. I don't have the energy to take care of him anymore."

Luke raised his eyebrows. "I already promised you that I will stay, and you're still tricking me?"

Eileen looked at him.

Luke didn't believe that she had cancer.

After a moment of hesitation and a slight frown, she mustered up the courage to take off her wig.

Instantly, Luke froze, thunderstruck.

After a while, he regained his composure, his face gloomy and his chest heaving violently. "Since when have you got it? "

Eileen said calmly, "Before the divorce.

Brad needs you."

"Wait, let me take a breath.”

Luke squatted down on the ground, gulping.

The news came as a bolt from the blue.

He felt dizzy. His eyes were so stinging that he could hardly open them.

After he calmed down, he staggered to his feet.

"From now on, you have to stay by my side! Don’t try to leave me!"

Eileen’s chest heaved. "Luke, I ask you to stay just for Brad’s sake. I have nothing to do with you."

However, Luke ignored her.

After that, Eileen was sent back to the hospital.

Anyway, someone would take care of Brad. She didn't have to worry about him anymore.
