Love Contract novel Chapter 259

In Z City early the next day, William and Mary met with others in front of her old house. They rendezvoused there before going to the mountain to worship her mother.

Aisha saw her mother for the first time. Her mother in the picture on the gravestone looked very kind and gentle. Would she be happy if she knew that her little daughter was still alive? Perhaps she never forgot Aisha, the child whom she had never met.

Well, it must be like this.

Aisha touched the photo on the tombstone with a faint smile.

Meanwhile, Mary's eyes were filled with tears, but she tried her best to smile.

'Mom, I've come to see you again. By the way, Aisha is standing next to me. We look exactly the same, don't we? She is my younger sister. I didn't expect that I would meet another family of mine. You must be very happy. As for William, he is very nice to me now. I hope you wouldn't get mad at me for not telling you about our fake marriage. We are very happy now!'

The group fell into silence, with different thoughts in their minds. Mary stood up, and William held her hand tightly. It seemed that he was making a silent promise to the elder in heaven.

He would hold Mary's hands as they grew old together.

In A City.

Selah sat in the dressing room as she prepared for a live broadcast interview.

Jaime stood aside, waiting for her. Suddenly his phone rang.

"I'll just answer this call," Jaime said to Selah with a nod.

"Okay." She turned to face him and nodded as well.

"Hey, I'm still not done with the eyeshadow." With that, the make-up artist turned Selah's head to the right slightly.

"Hello? Dr. Li, what's wrong?" Jaime answered the phone as he walked.

"Mr. Huo, we just received a cornea donation from a kind-hearted person today. Fortunately, it matches Ray's corneas. The operation should have to be performed soon. I wonder if Miss Shen has time to come to the hospital so we could discuss the specific details of the operation."

"Dr. Li, could you wait for a moment please? I'll call you back in five minutes," Jaime said with a frown.

"Okay. Sure."

Jaime hung up the phone and called Barry right away.

"What's up, Jamie?" Barry said calmly.

Jaime repeated what Dr. Li had said just now. "Selah is preparing for a live broadcast. Mr. Gu, do you think..."

Barry put down his work and asked, "The surgery can't wait, can it? Tell Selah to cancel her work. Let her go to the hospital immediately."

"But the show will begin in half an hour."

"They should take the emergency measures." Barry pondered for a moment and continued, "I'll call the producer. Take Selah to the hospital."

"Okay, I understand." After hanging up the phone, Jaime immediately asked someone to inform the director about the change of plans. Then, he rushed to the dressing room.

Selah's eyeliner was still half-drawn when she was pulled up by Jaime.

"What's wrong?" She asked as she was taken aback by his sudden gesture.

"We don't need to do the show anymore," said Jaime briefly. "Ray's new corneas are now available. We have to go to the hospital now."

"What did you just say? Really? Great!" She hurriedly stepped forward, and her voice trembled with excitement and happiness. "Let's go!"

"Eh? What?" Meanwhile, the make-up artist did not understand what was going on so she stood frozen in spot while holding the eyeliner pen. "Hey, Selah! Why are you..."

Before she could finish her words, the two had already left.

As he walked, Jaime called Dr. Li and told him to prepare for the operation. Selah followed him closely.

Just as they were about to walk out of the hall, Selah bumped into someone when she opened the door.

"I'm so sorry!" With her eyes hazy with tears of joy, she quickly apologized and continued to stride out.

The man rubbed his arm and did not say anything. He glanced back to see who had hit him, and his eyes widened when he recognized the woman from the back. 'Is that Selah?' he wondered. Or did he mistake the woman for Selah? Did she cut her hair short?

"Jerry, what's wrong?" An actress who was wearing sunglasses next to Jerry asked, "Why did you stop?" "Was that Selah Shen who just passed by?" Jerry asked.

"Yes, it was," the actress answered disdainfully. "Recently, someone has been supporting her and she became famous overnight. In our three-week stay in Singapore and Malaysia, many things happened in A City."

Hearing that, Jerry was shocked. He did not expect that Selah would make a comeback. What had happened seven years ago came back to his mind. As Selah's agent at that time, he had tried his best to 'match' her and Barry Gu, but to no avail. His trick only resulted in Barry losing his temper, and Selah getting pregnant.

If Selah saw him again, she would definitely get revenge on him!
