A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 265

Switching off the lights by the bed, the room fell pitch black, and only the faint sounds of their breaths could be heard.

They were sleeping side by side on the same bed, and they were so close together, but it had felt as though there was a distance where they were out of reach from one another.

It was when the night had become darker and quieter, did they hear a sudden ring for a received message.

A toned arm reached over to the nightstand, Mark grabbed his phone and clicked on the message. It was from Raine which read, "Have you slept? Good night."

The blue light emitted by his phone illuminated through the room, and Summer glanced over with the corner of her eyes. Then, she held onto her blanket tightly as her brows knotted slightly. She knew that the message was from Raine.

She thought, 'How should I even try to save this marriage? I really do not know.'

Without replying to the message, he merely glanced at it. He placed his phone back onto the nightstand, and he shifted his eyes sideways. His dark eyes were met with hers as she too was looking over to him. He

asked, "What really happened back at the mansion today?"

He did not believe that she was one who would cause harm to others, but he wanted to know what was the reason that caused them to have such a big fight.

However, she had thought that he was deliberately interrogating her. After a long moment of silence, with her heart feeling numbed, she spoke up coldly and mockingly, "I don't have anything to say. It was just as you saw. You can just interpret it as you want!"

After saying so, she closed her eyes and never spoke u p again.

Hearing her words, Mark's large hands tightened as h e stared at her back fiercely, wishing to pierce holes through it.

He was waiting for her to explain the truth to him, and he never had thought that she would be so nonchalant and disdainful.

Does she think that there is no need to explain or even talk to me?' he thought.

His expressions wavered. He wanted to pull her soft and slender frame into his arms but had also wanted t o just strangle her to death.
