Love Contract novel Chapter 264

"Are you crazy?!" Corbett looked at him with pain in his eyes.

"Yes, I'm crazy! I've been crazy for a long time!" Frank turned around and looked at Corbett with burning red eyes. "I haven't accepted it! I don't even know if I can! What is so good about Mary Lu? My sister and I... Yes, my sister... William couldn't have forgotten my sister!"

Seeing that Frank was hysterical and almost out of control, Corbett closed his eyes helplessly.

After a long while, he opened his mouth and said in a low voice, "I'm going back to Japan."

"What?" It seemed that Frank had not recovered his senses yet.

"I said I'm going back to Japan," Corbett repeated. He looked straight into Frank's eyes and said with a pleading voice, "Go back with me."

"Why should I go back with you?" It was unusual for Corbett to plead, but Frank did not appreciate it at all. "Do you also want to stop me? It's impossible. I'm telling you, Mary Lu, Victor Qiao... I won't let them go!"

"Then I wish you drive away Mary Lu successfully."

Corbett glanced at Frank one last time with deep and meaningful eyes. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind entered the villa which made Corbett's windbreaker sway. With his arms on his side, he passed by Frank without saying anything.

With a loud bang, Corbett shut the heavy glazed door.

It was the first time that Frank had seen him leave so decisively.

"Young lord."

"Ask someone to keep an eye on Frank. Don't let anything bad happen to him."

"Yes, sir!"

"Let's go back to Japan right away."

"Yes, sir!"

In Kary Villa.

After putting the two children to sleep, Mary dragged her heavy body onto the bed and fell asleep immediately.

"Mary." William called her softly, but she was too tired to respond. He carefully picked her up and carried her to their bedroom.

"What are you doing?" Mary asked while half-asleep. "Going to bed!" William smiled and kissed her on the cheek as he walked.

Half-awake, Mary dodged with a frown. "I'm very tired tonight. Don't make any trouble, okay?"

"Why are you so tired recently?" William asked. "Did Barry give you too much work?"

"No."

"Then what happened? You don't even have an appetite these days. Are you sick? Should we go to see a doctor tomorrow?"

"I'm okay," whispered Mary. "I'll be fine after a sleep."

"All right." William laid her on the bed thoughtfully and then lay down next to her. "I'll sleep with you in my arms tonight."

"Okay," Mary answered sluggishly. When she felt that William was next to her, she snuggled close to him. With that, she fell asleep sweetly.

When William realized that she was already fast asleep, he held her tightly with one arm and took out a small fluffy box from his pocket with the other.

With a snap, he opened the ring box, revealing a diamond ring shining brightly in the light.

Beaming with happiness, he gazed at the ring. His smile was so radiant, it shone like a second diamond in the room. 'Mary, as I present you an award on the Golden Cup Awards ceremony, I will propose to you. I will make sure that everyone will witness my love for you. I can't wait any longer. I feel like my heart is going to burst.'

The weather at the end of August gradually became cooler. Tonight, the red carpet event of the Golden Cup Awards in A City had garnered people's enthusiasm and attention.

"The next one to walk on the red carpet is one of the award presenters, Mr. William Lan! But wait, there is a stunning woman beside him. Who is she? Ah! It's the scriptwriter of 'Be Together'!"

The host's voice reverberated all throughout the place. Moreover, the live screen displayed everything that was going on in the award ceremony.

William's and Mary's attractiveness and beauty made the audiences cheer. They stood on the red carpet for a while as dozens of cameras took photos of them, accompanied by countless flashes of light.

"I'm so tired. My legs are so sore," Mary whispered under her smile as she walked on the red carpet while greeting everyone.

"Don't worry. You can have a rest soon." William patted the back of Mary's hand comfortingly.

"Okay." Mary nodded. She suddenly turned to William and asked, "Do you think I'll win an award later onstage? I have prepared a full speech for the award!"

"You have to trust yourself." William smiled at her reassuringly. 'Silly girl, the Best Scriptwriter Award this year is already yours. Just wait for me to present it to you later.'

"You don't know how excited I am!" exclaimed Mary. "I'm really happy to have been nominated as the best scriptwriter! You have witnessed my success. You know it can't be better than this!"

"I'm glad that my beloved one is so successful!" William stared at her with eyes full of love.

"Humph!" said Mary playfully.

They walked until they reached the end of the red carpet. As they entered the ceremony hall, cheers and hysterical chants of "Archer Song" echoed behind them.

They looked at each other and laughed. William ushered Mary to her respective seat and asked her to sit down. "I'll go to my seat first. I'll come to you when the ceremony is over."

"Wow! Being an award presenter must be nice. You get to sit on the front row!"

"How about I take you with me to the front row?" William asked while blinking blankly.

"Forget it." Mary waved her hand at him and added, "I'm fine here." "Ha ha!" William touched her head lovingly. He then looked at his watch and stood up straight. "Don't be nervous while I'm gone."
