A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 194

Summer saw his hesitation. "Dean, do you have something to say?” she asked.

After a moment, Dean took out a newspaper from his side and handed it to her.

She was puzzled. But when she took the newspaper in her hand and saw the red headline, she was stunned. But it was just for a split second before she regained her composure.

Dean rubbed his hands awkwardly. "Have I caused you trouble?"

Putting the newspaper aside, Summer chuckled and shook her head. "Not at all. Those reporters just made things up. Truth will speak for itself. Instead of you causing me trouble, I am afraid that I have affected your reputation as a police officer."

"Huh?" Dean had no idea what she meant.

"The upright, staid, and honest Officer Singleton made the headlines for a married woman-is it not tarnishing your image in the police force?" She sounded serious, but still with a smile on her face.

"I know what kind of person you are. And like you said, truth would speak for itself.”

Summer glanced at him twice and was all praise for

him. "You are truly the upright Officer Singleton. Even the way you speak sounds so profound."

Dean's face reddened involuntarily. The boy sitting next to him purposely added fuel to the flames by pointing out the obvious. "Hey, Uncle Singleton, your face is red like a monkey butt."

Dean's face reddened even more. He raised his hand and flicked his finger on his nephew's forehead. " Enough of talking. Hurry up and finish your meal."

Summer could not hold back her laughter, although she was a little embarrassed, too. Dean also laughed. It looked like the three of them were having a great time.
