A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 556

Mark was still sound asleep as he held her tightly in his arms. His left hand had been recklessly placed on her chest, cupping the "softness" in his hand.

She had just discovered this sleeping habit of his recently. His lower jaw was even nested in her soft hair.

Unable to move, she reached out and pushed him so that he would let go. But unexpectedly, he held her even tighter than before.

Summer was left with no choice but to speak gently." I'll go and wash my face. You can sleep a little while more. I'll wake you up once breakfast is ready."

He responded softly from his throat as he let her go. She then went to the washroom to freshen up before she went to make breakfast.

She had woken up late during the past few days, which left her no time to prepare breakfast. Since she had gotten up early today, she did not have to go down to buy them breakfast, and she planned to make it on her own. 1

She made Charlotte an omelet and continued to make some pumpkin soup. She also took out Daisy's roasted vegetables that she had brought home and served

them on a plate.

A wide smile grew on her face when she was done with everything, She then went to the bedroom to wake Charlotte up. Since Mark slept late last night, she figured that he should get as much sleep as he could.

Charlotte was always glued to the bed in the morning. She groaned under her breath reluctantly as she squinted and hugged her own stomach with her small hands, throwing a tantrum. "Mommy, my stomach aches." 1

"Are you really feeling uncomfortable or do you just want to skip school on purpose?" Summer pinched her cheeks.

"It’s real." Charlotte's voice was so soft that she sounded like a mosquito whining. She buried her face in her blanket and would not lift it up.

"It’s only been a few days since you went to school, and you are already whining about your stomach and refusing to go to school. That's okay, I'll just give your teacher a call now."

Summer pretended to take out her phone. Charlotte immediately crawled out of bed with a pitiful look on her face after she heard what Summer had just said.
