A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 65

Summer spoke immediately, "I don't have any.”

Hearing so, Daisy pressed on, "Then do you know how t o get them? Maybe you can get some for her.”

"Mom, why are you even putting up with her?"

"I'm not. It's just that you know how she is. If you don't get it for her, she might take it upon herself and possibly cause a big fuss at the banquet. And, all the guests attending are either notable figures or of the ruling class in Santabaca; I can't bear to see her put m y precious daughter in a humiliating situation."

Daisy reasoned as she lowered down her voice, forcing Amara out of earshot.

Solomon also agreed, "Yeah. Knowing her, she would surely cause a scene tomorrow at the hotel. Just get some for her."

Summer felt an intense headache forming; it was as if her head was about to explode, and her chest burned with rage whenever she had to deal with anything Amara-related.

Amara peeked her head out from the washroom. Calling out to Summer, she obnoxiously asked, "Could you also send someone to get me a dress for the banquet? I don't think I have anything suitable for the

occasion."

Without sparing her a reply, Summer's gaze was icy-cold as she stared at Amara.

Feeling slightly apprehensive and perhaps embarrassed from Summer's intense gaze, she hmphed and mumbled, “What's the big deal? Fine if you don’t want to then!"

Summer stayed at her parents' for quite a while and only headed back to the Valentine mansion around 8:0 0 pm. However, no one was home other than the housekeepers.

She trudged to her room and fell onto the bed. She sighed, thinking, 'Nothing has been going my way for the past few days.' Then, after lying in frustration for about half an hour, she slowly dozed off.

Mark had been returning home late recently, and it was getting later day by day.

And it had become habitual for Summer to leave a lamp on for him in the room.
