A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 37

There was no doubt to that, but frowning with her brows knitted, she asked, "Then, could you think of any other place he might have gone?"

“Nope,” he replied without hesitation. Facing and looking in her eyes for a moment, he spoke up again," Although there might be someone who can find him, someone who he would talk to."

She could tell what he was thinking of from the way h e looked at her. Feeling doubtful, she asked, "How are you so sure that he would want to talk to me? What if h e doesn't?"

Lips twitching upwards, his slender fingers knocked lightly on the steering and refuted, "But what if he does?"

After thinking about it for a moment, she scornfully said, "Then I'll do whatever you say, but what about you? What if you were wrong?"

His eyes had seemingly lit up. He was happy with her reply. Then, he replied her brashly, "Do you think I could be wrong, Miss Hart?"

"Why not?” she scoffed while looking away from him. She was annoyed with the look on his face.

His confidence adding to his poise, he smirked, "Then, I'll do as you wish as well," he continued leaning into his seat, "only if I was wrong."

Satisfied with his promise, she dialled in Jazz's number and waited, all done in Mark's face.

After a few rings, the call was connected.

It was quiet on the other end. She could only hear Jazz breathing steadily and a soft sound of snow falling.

Unexpecting of him to pick up, she was surprised.

With the outline of his toned figure showing, she saw Mark sitting relaxingly and smiling knowingly from the corner of her eyes. She gritted her teeth.

However, she didn't let her frustration show in her voice. Careful with her tone, she softly asked, "Hey Jazz, where are you now? Would it be fine with you if I went over?"

And surprisingly, he agreed.

But there was a condition: only she alone could go.

Walking towards the lake located in the middle of the campus, her gaze fell onto the figure sitting by the bench.
