A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 278

Raine took a few steps backward. Her face turned pale, but she still kept her calm.

At the same time, the two of them noticed Summer, who was standing at the corner. Swiftly, one of them switched positions next to Summer, trapping both ladies in between them.

"What do you want?" Trying to calm herself down, Summer looked at them. At the same time, she examined her surroundings. Her back was facing the edge of the cliff, and they were blocking her only way out. It was impossible to escape.

Judging from the way the two men were dressed, it looked like everything was planned out beforehand. It was safe to assume that they were either after money o r had a score to settle with one of the three. Those were basically the only two reasons.

"Can you even afford what we want?" the man with a knife said coldly.

"Other than money, what else do you want?"

"I want you dead!"

Raine arched her brows. "But we have never offended you in any way. We haven’t even met before. So why would you want us dead?" "It's true that we've never crossed paths, but someone

had a bone to pick with us. Basically, both of you are the scapegoats!"

The man with the sharp knife chimed in, "Both of you, one being his wife, another being his lover. He really knows how to enjoy his life, but he did us dirty and sabotaged our lives. Our wives and children left us, and we couldn’t even put food on the table. How could we let him live?"

Baine immediately understood the cause of this as she shook her head affirmatively and said, "Mark is not that kind of person, he wouldn't do such a thing without a reason. The problem must’ve been on both o f you."

Their expressions turned even more vicious after listening to her words. They glared at Baine coldly, their gaze dark and mad. Nobody could guess what they were going to do at the very next second.

Feeling intimidated, Baine slowly stepped backward. A t that instant, Summer broke her silence, "Were you following us since the beginning?"
