A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 243

Nobody saw her nervousness for she had concealed them, but her hands were trembling.

Mark squinted his eyes and his pupils shrunk. He stared at her silently as if his looks were going to tunnel through her.

At that moment, Raine straightened her back, brightened her face, and asked again, "Do you still want me?"

"What do you mean?" he answered solemnly, oblivious that his heartbeat was calm, neither was it rejoicing.

He didn’t give it much thought for she had provoked him on many occasions, but they were never realized; besides, he had gotten used to her antics.

"I want to be with you, would you still take me?" this time, Raine was really pressing her luck.

To her, this was her chance regardless of what Yvette had in mind.

He didn't respond to her question but answered, "I'm curious to know what happened to you this time that had brought you this change."

Raine became silent and spoke slowly after a long while.

"I know that what I did was unforgivable; three years ago, it was me who wanted to break up and leave, and then appear before you again three years later; I had disturbed your life and was constantly swayed. But I had my reasons and hardships for doing so. Can you forgive me?"

"Why should I forgive you?" he glanced at her casually.

"I love you!" she said it clearly with determination.

Mark’s eyes remained squinted, but there were noticeable movements. Due to the extremely deep expression on his face, his thoughts were concealed, but his smirk carried a sense of insult.
