A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 698

Sherman was leaning against the rear seat window emotionlessly. Her eyes were vacantly looking at the passing pedestrians and vehicles through the window...

By the time she reached her apartment, Billy was already home, drinking water. She did not expect him to be home this early.

She did not bother to give him a glance. Instead, she changed to slippers and placed her bag on a couch. Seeing this, Billy stopped drinking water and stood in front of her. "What's wrong with you today?"

He was referring to her reactions and behaviors at the reunion party.

Sherman paused and looked at him indifferently." What about you? Did you finally kiss Natalie's hand?"

'So, now he questions me? Does he think that my reactions have embarrassed him?"

"I'm the first who are asking. Shouldn't you answer m y question first?" Billy's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly.

"Well, I will answer yours if you answer mine. Did you kiss Natalie's hand in the end?"

"No." Billy's lips were twitching as he frowned." Shouldn't you soften your behavior in such an

occasion?" said Billy with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

When Sherman heard what he said in the end, her expression was softened a bit. Her stomach was still feeling unwell, so she walked to the water dispenser t o get herself a glass of water.

Then she turned to face him. "How could I soften my attitude when you were about to kiss Natalie's hand?"

"They had made the rules clear before the game started. There was no objection when the rules were set. It was acquiescence. In the end, didn't they make concessions? Kissing the back of the hand is just a common etiquette, isn't it?"

'It was just a polite act. She didn't have to be such a party-pooper at that time.'

Not long after her exit, he had left the private box too, s o did the classmates.

Their classmate reunion was only held once a year. All of them had not seen each other for a long time. Yet, because of one trivial matter, she made everyone upset with her tantrum. Was it worth it? Was it even necessary?

Sherman closed her eyes slightly and opened them again, fixing her gaze at him. "Heh, they made concessions? Then did you tell them about the history you had shared with Natalie when you were drunk last time?" she said with sarcasm in her words.

Billy's expression turned grave. He ran his fingers through his thick hair. "Do you have to mention that a t this time?"

"I didn’t want to, but you forced me to bring it up. Watching my husband kissing the hand of the woman —the woman he had slept with when he was drunk. Billy, do you think I'm that generous?"

"But you don't have to make a scene, do you?"

"If you had rejected it from the beginning, the scene would not have escalated to that state, and it would not be that awkward. Or perhaps, you did not want to reject it at all, looking forward to another physical contact with Natalie?"

Sherman was a little irritated, and she didn't want to hear anything about the reunion party at this moment.

Although she lost control of her emotions, and her words were clumsy, what she said was an undeniable fact.

"The rules of the game are already set. No matter what I said or excuses I gave at that time, it would ruin the atmosphere."

"So, between your wife and classmate reunion, which i s more important?"
