A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 463

Mark's handsome face darkened a little. Without a word, he put his phone into his blazer's pocket. Then, h e went ahead and greeted all the guests that came. He was cold and distant, yet polite.

"Mark, where's your car key? I’ll borrow it for a while. Mom said that Dad is on the plane now and he’ll arrive soon. I’m going to pick him up."

Mark threw the car keys over and turned around. His gaze landed on Ms. Moore’s black and white picture. She was smiling at him as usual, and it was as if she had never left before.

However, some people would eventually leave, and there was no possibility for them to return.

Ms. Moore's passing had also impacted Gordon a lot. Both of them had been madly in love with each other, and their relationship had never changed over the years. Now that Ms. Moore had passed on, Gordon had also collapsed.

In the afternoon, Ronald arrived with a hurried look o n his face. It looked like he had been in a rush.

He met Mark’s eyes at once and asked, “Where’s your grandpa?" "Upstairs..." While Mark pursed his lips, he spoke in a

cold voice. "Why have you just arrived?" "I had a few important meetings to attend at Grudin North. I couldn't leave." Ronald rubbed his forehead tiredly. "I just managed to take some time off and immediately flew over."

Hearing this, the coldness on Mark's face became a bit more intense. There was like a layer of ice covering it. "That is not an excuse for your behavior."

"Mark, Grandma is not around anymore. I know you are in a bad mood and annoyed. But how could you speak to your dad in that manner?" Ronald's square face was filled with awe.

"The last time she fell sick, you didn't even visit her once in Athana. When she came back from Athana, you still didn't come to Norwood and visit her. Even at her passing, you arrived later than the guests. Your work in Grudin North managed to keep you busy to such a level. There are 24 hours in a day. Are you always busy with work and not sleeping at night?"

Mark did not bother to look at Ronald’s expression and continued to speak coldly.

As Yvette approached from behind, she heard everything clearly. She stretched out her hand and pulled Mark's sleeves. "How could you say such words to your dad in front of everyone?"
