Love Contract novel Chapter 270

"That's not true! I don't love anyone else. I love you! Mary, you're the only one I love!" Faced with her skeptical expression, William felt his shoulders sag. "Mary, you have to believe me!" he pleaded.

The situation at the door was bad enough, but another trouble had descended upon the company. Barry's assistant, Cooper, hurried up to the trio. "Mr. Gu! Mr. Gu! Something's happened!"

"What's wrong?" Barry frowned.

"The computers in the company..." Cooper looked embarrassed. He glanced at William and said, "The computers of our company seemed to have been infiltrated by a hacker. And now... All the computers are playing... Indecent videos..."

Indecent videos?

Mary's eyes shot open. She felt a wave of uneasiness wash over her. Before Barry could reply, Mary had already started toward the company hall.

"Mary!"

William shouted, running after her. The obscene voices got louder as she approached the front desk.

Mary stared at the computer, and her stomach dropped. Occupying the whole screen was a recording of a man and a woman's passionate lovemaking. The leading male in the video was none other than William, who entered the hall right after Mary.

She stood frozen by the desk, unable to breathe. As much as she wanted to, she couldn't look away.

Mary gripped the edge of the desk until her knuckles turned white. A fresh stream of tears fell as she shut her eyes. She wanted the earth to swallow her whole so she wouldn't have to suffer such torture.

Just behind her, William was also fixed in place. He stared at the computer screen. His face flushed, but it wasn't long before William felt the blood drain. He gaped at the recording.

"Mary, stop watching it!" Barry covered Mary's eyes. "Come, let's get you away from here."

William gulped anxiously, his Adam's apple teetering up and down. "Mary, please!"

Hearing his plea, Mary feebly attempted to dry her face. She faced him slowly, her teary gaze meeting his. "William Lan, you are absolutely disgusting!"

Her right hand flew to the delicate bracelet on her left wrist. With a symphony of clangs, the beads fell to the ground and bounced away in various directions.

Each bead felt like a shot to William's heart. He still remembered Mary's happiness the night he had gifted it to her, but now...

His chest felt infinitely laden. Seeing his Mary so pale and indifferent felt like the air in his chest was emptied.

He could do nothing but watch as another man took Mary farther and farther away from him.

"Mary..." William called out to her in a low voice, but he hardly sounded like himself.

The overwhelming fear of losing her from four years ago swept over again. This time, William watched Mary leave with his own two eyes, and it was a thousand times more painful than before.

"Mary! Mary!"
