Love Contract novel Chapter 115

"You are impossible," Lucas scoffed. "She's a little woman for Christ's sake. You aren't supposed to treat her that way even if she takes your money. You went to Japan despite everything that was happening. Since you don't care about anything here, why'd you still come back?"

"I still have some unfinished business here," William said coldly.

"Oh yeah? Like what?" Lucas sneered. "I think it's best if you just go to Norway soon. As for Mary, just get divorced with her. You're hindering her.

There are so many men waiting for her." 'Many men?'

Anger immediately arose in William's heart. In a hostile tone, he asked, "Who's waiting for her? Why are they waiting for her?"

"They want to be with her! They want to marry her!" Lucas raised his eyebrows and gazed at him.

"No!" William blurted out.

"Why not?" "Because..." William frowned. He spat, "Why do you have so many questions anyway?"

'Someone else wants to marry her? No way!'

William couldn't stand the idea of Mary being with another man.

"She will marry someone else one day and that's a fact." Lucas continued to provoke him. "Don't trap her."

"I won't!" William said through gritted teeth.

"What's your plan? Are you planning to own her for the rest of your life?" Lucas taunted.

William looked him in the eye. "And if I wanted to do that, what are you going to do about it?"

"That's not what you said last time."

"Things are different now," William said, dodging his eyes. "That was before... we did... erm... and again."

"What?" Lucas roared as he almost hurled his cup of coffee across the table. He attracted the stares of some of the customers and staff of the coffee shop.

They... Did they really do what he was thinking?

"Why are you yelling at me? Do you want the whole world to know?" William bellowed.

"William." Lucas had finally calmed down. "You bastard! Damn it! Why can't you just leave her alone? Are you insane?" He was seething.

"It's a normal thing between a man and a woman!"

"Stop making excuses." Lucas frowned. After a long pause, he hesitantly asked, "Do you even like Mary?"

His heart was pounding in his chest as he awaited William's answer.

William was visibly stunned. Like? Did he like Mary?

He enjoyed teasing her when he was around her. When he wasn't with her, he felt empty. It was almost an instinct for him to want her... Was this love?

"Why aren't you answering me?" Lucas pressed.

"I..." William pursed his lips. As his thoughts drifted away, both Sansa and Frank appeared in his mind. "How could I like her? Don't say that again."

"Alas..." Lucas sighed slightly. 'I can't help you anymore. You can solve your issues on your own. No one else can help you.'

"Well, I need to go." William glanced at his watch.

"Oh, by the way..." Lucas took a ticket out from his pocket and said, "Please give this to Mary." "What?" As William received the ticket, he saw that it was a ticket to a ski resort. "Just one? Do you want her to go by herself?"

"No." Lucas shrugged as he shoved his hands into his pockets. "I have another one here."

"..." Staring at him, William spat, "Give me that

ticket!"

"Why? No way!" Lucas waved the ticket in his hand complacently.

"Are you going to the ski resort with her?" William asked scornfully. "You... Give me that ticket!"

"I want to go too! A patient gave them to me," Lucas explained, arching his eyebrows. "Just let Mary go with me."
