A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 35

The car drove along the winding road for a while and then stopped.

As they reached, they saw Billy's car arriving as well. H e got down the car and passed Summer two separate gift boxes.

Gasping quietly, she was amazed at the efficiency of Billy, 'Secretaries of a large corporate company sure are on another level huh!'

Mark and Summer went into the mansion one after another, passing by the large and beautifully carved gates.

Just as they stepped into the vestibule, they were struck by a fierce and hoarse voice yelling "That little p r*ck! How dare he get married behind my back! He'll get it from me when he's here!"

"Dad, he’s arriving soon, and you can ask him then. Don't get too worked up, you have to take care."

A gentle voice followed after. It was Yvette.

Summer thought, 'If she called him 'dad', that man must be Mark's grandfather.'

Through the tone and volume of the voice, she could tell that he was not delighted, furious even.

Unconsciously, she shivered.

"And how would I 'get it' from you?" Mark asked halfheartedly and casually threw his car keys to the coffee table.

Dressed in a military service uniform, the old man with greyish-white hair, Gordon Angelo turned towards him. Gordon glared at him angrily and commanded, "Halt!"

Ignoring the command, Mark took off his cashmere coat and went ahead to hang it on the coat hanger.

However, it was Summer who stood still and straight upon hearing the command. It was out of reflex, and she would probably even bow down if Gordon asked her to.

Gordon looked as though he was a disciplinary coach, and being the obedient student she used to be, she just obeyed instinctively.

Chuckling lightly, he held out his arm and pulled her slim figure into his embrace. With his brow raised, he said, "You frightened her, grandpa."

Feeling him against her, she came back to her senses and realized what she had done. She was so close to him that she could feel the vibrations from him chuckling.

Embarrassed, her cheeks reddened, and she lightly stepped on his feet in frustration.
