Love Contract novel Chapter 162

"Daddy Lucas," said Alick, startled by the bandages on Lucas's face and arms. He ran to Lucas and asked, "Daddy Lucas, were you beaten up by someone?"

Lucas did not know how to explain to the kid what had happened. The corners of his mouth twitched. "I had a fight with someone. What did you mean by being beaten up?"

"But you are injured..."

Barry's eyes darkened, and he was enveloped by a sad and gloomy atmosphere. With a cold face, he went into the bathroom in silence.

"Barry..." Mary noticed his facial expression. She stood up and called him at once, but he did not turn around.

"Alick, why are you here with your Daddy Barry?" Lucas asked.

"Daddy Barry's clothes got dirty. He came here to change clothes."

After a short pause, Mary said to her son, "Alick, take care of Daddy Lucas. I'll go talk to Daddy Barry."

"Okay!" With a lowered head, Lucas watched Mary turn around and go.

The bedroom door was ajar. "Barry," she said while entering the room.

"I..." Mary's face suddenly turned red and she stammered, "I... I'll go out first."

"Mary!" When Mary was about to leave, Barry grabbed her arm quickly.

Barry pinned her against the wall. Mary's eyes were tightly shut, not daring to open them. "Please let go of me."

"No, never!" Frowning, Barry continued, "If I let go of you, are you going out to be with Lucas again?"

"No, I'm not!" Mary denied and opened her eyes anxiously. As soon as she looked up, she saw his wheat-colored body and felt hot in her ears. She lowered her head immediately.

Barry shouted, "William Lan, Lucas Murong, Victor Qiao... I really don't have confidence, Mary, I'm really afraid.

Mary, it's been four years. Do you even like me, even for a bit?" Barry asked bitterly.

"I..." Nervous, Mary swallowed hard. "I used to be someone else's wife and borne his children. However, I've been greedy for your protection and it's too unfair to you." "I don't care!" Barry's eyes turned red and he added, "I just know that I like you. Besides, I have always treated Alick and Elissa as my own. I don't want to live such a fearful life anymore. Mary, marry me."

"Marry me..." Barry's voice echoed in Mary's ears.

Mary looked up to him and a myriad of thoughts crowded in her mind. "But... I haven't divorced him yet."

"Then let's do it after your divorce." Barry held her shoulders tightly, leaving no chance for her to escape.

"We..." Mary continued, "Can we start from being boyfriend and girlfriend first?"

A deafening silence fell in the room. Meanwhile, Barry was stunned. He was so confused about the situation. "Mary, what... do you mean?"

"Just forget it if you don't understand." Mary turned her head away. She felt her heart flutter in her chest.

"No, no, no!" Barry shook his head abruptly and picked up Mary. He held her in his arms. His eyes were full of incredible surprise. After so many years, he finally got her promise. "Mary! Mary! Mary!"

"Oh my God!" All of a sudden, Barry spun around while carrying her. "Put me down!" she yelled. "Mary, will you be my girlfriend?"

"Yes, I will."

"Mary, are you really my girlfriend now?" "I am."

"Ha ha!"

"You are making me dizzy, Barry. Put me down." Mary covered her eyes, but she was amused and happy.

"Okay!" And with that, Barry put Mary back to the ground while beaming with happiness.

On the 20th floor of the apartment in Kylin International Community.

With a click, the door of the apartment opened.

The room was as quiet as it had been for four years. However, in William's eyes, it was more desolate than ever.

In the past, he could still have dreams and fantasies. But now, he could no longer wait for his wife to show up.

"Mary..." Lost in thought, William walked into the room with red eyes.

In the previous bedroom of Mary, a wedding photo of her and William was on the bedside table. William made sure it was within his reach so he could have a trace of hope when he slept. But now, there was no hope at all. The children.

Wait! A glimmer of hope suddenly lit up in the eyes of William. Four years ago, he did not take any protective measures when he had sex with Mary. Could the children be his?

Smirking, he quickly took out his phone to make a call. Could it be possible...

Ring! Ring!

While he was thinking, the phone in his hand suddenly rang.

"Hello?" William answered the phone.
