A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 417

"Mark, don't you think you’re being intrusive?" she maintained her low volume while grabbing his shirt with both hands.

Raising his brow, Mark adjusted his grip around her waist. Then, he squinted his eyes and asked, "Do you love him?"

Summer frowned and did not answer. She tugged silently at his grip with all her might, wanting to break free.

He was not a cop, neither was she a criminal. Hence, she was not obliged to answer his question.

"Listen, if you aren't going to answer, we can keep doing this until morning..."

Summer took a deep breath and froze for a moment. She could not help but prick her palms with her finger so that it hurt a little. "I love him." She uttered so clearly that she could even hear her own voice.

Hearing her answer, Mark turned blank but stared into her eyes, trying to grasp her deepest thoughts.

"Four years ago, did you love-"

Just as he was about to finish saying in a low and deep voice, he suddenly choked, and his speech was cut short.

He went on to place his finger on her lips and rubbed them. "Dear ex-wife, your eyes have betrayed you.

They are clearly saying that you are not speaking the truth...”

She could not help but shudder and tilt her head slightly. She calmed her racing heartbeat before she looked up and said, "I may not love him enough yet, but I will soon become his wife. Then, I will love him with all my heart!"

What she said was not solely meant for him; it was also directed at herself.
