A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 311

But before she could climb more than a few steps, a hand with the heat and dryness of a man grabbed her from behind. She was slightly startled, standing still, and the palm of her hand felt hot.

The next second, the man's deep and hoarse voice drifted into her ears. "Remember what I said, don't see Jazz again. You don't want to mess with me.”

Taunting, sneering, stinging; she flung his hand away with force, looking at him and forced her words through her mouth. "You don’t want to mess with me, either. So stop provoking me in the future."

Immediately, she left without looking back, not sparing a glance at the man.

Mark had not left when Summer disappeared from his sight. He clenched his hands, feeling like wanting to snap her slender, beautiful neck.

It was not until his phone vibrated that he pulled back his thoughts. "Hey, Jazz," he answered.

"Didn't you mean to have dinner together at the Valentine mansion, Mark? I have been back for a long time, why haven't you come back yet? I thought you were before me?"

"Something happened on my way home. I will be back in a minute. See you soon."

He just explained briefly and hung up, then strode out towards the black vehicle that had been waiting downstairs at the apartment.

When Summer got home, little Charlotte rushed up to her and held on to her leg, screwing up her face." Mommy, why did you come back so late?"

"I went to have dinner with someone. That is why I have come home late. Did you miss me?"

Charlotte kept nodding her head like a chicken pecking at shrimps. "I was scared that Mommy would be taken away and eaten by the big gray wolf."

Summer smiled, reached out to hug her in her arms. "I t is okay. There are policemen out there. They will drive away the big gray wolf. Let Mommy see your belly and how much ice cream you have eaten."

Her hand landed on the chubby belly, and then ran up to her armpit and gave Charlotte a gentle scratch.
