A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 375

Maria came into the kitchen and saw Summer squatting there to clean up the floor. "Let me do this, M s. Hart."

"It is okay. I got this. My hands are dirty anyway."

Maria knew she should not ask, but she could not help herself. "If you don't mind me asking, why did you and Mr. Valentine divorce, Ms. Hart?"

The two of them seemed to be a good match. Besides, they had Charlotte between them. They should be a happy family. So why did they get divorced?

Summer’s hands froze for a second. But she quickly regained her composure. "We just divorced like that."

Maria did not ask any further, just feeling sorry for the two of them.

Here, in the living room, Charlotte could not seem to calm down. As Mark leaned back and looked at his documents, she straddled his chest, wriggling left and right and feeding him grapes.

Summer saw this when she emerged from the kitchen. Mark’s face sank as he read the files, as if he found something amiss in the contract document. He put Charlotte on the settee and glanced at Summer. " You stay in the apartment with Charlotte, and I will be

back in a while."

Summer’s heart skipped a beat, as if a pebble had been thrown into the calm pool of water. Emotional ripples spread inside her, but she just glanced at him coldly, without saying a word.

She would still stay with Charlotte, even without him asking.

But the way Mark said those words sounded as if a husband were talking to his wife. It was inappropriate for their current relationship and situation.
