Love Contract novel Chapter 273

"William Lan! Where are you taking me? Stop the car!" Mary shouted at the top of her lungs, pulling William's arm. "Put me down! Stop the car!" she cried out desperately.

With his hands firm on the steering wheel, William answered, "Mary, stop it. I'm driving."

Mary pierced her sharp eyes at him while wearing a grim expression on the face. "I said, stop the car! You can go anywhere you want to go! But I’m not coming with you! I don’t want to be anywhere near you at all!"

William's thin lips were pursed even more tightly. His eyes, which were now gloomy, landed on the road while he kept mum.

"Where are you taking me? Tell me!" Mary asked him again, gritting her teeth. "If you don't tell me, I'll jump out of the car!"

"Mary!" Now, she caught his attention. For a second, William glanced at her with an evident pained expression. "You don't want to stay with me even for one minute? Have you forgotten how happy we were before?"

"Happy?" Mary sneered. "Don't you feel sick saying that?" "I...." For a while, William struggled to find the right words to say. "As for the videos, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to hide it from you! I was afraid you wouldn't forget me if you knew about it. Andy and I--"

"Stop it!" Mary interrupted his words, covering her ears with hands to show that she could not take any explanations. "I don't want to hear it! Please stop! Please!"

"Okay, okay. I'll shut up!" William firmly closed his mouth right away and sighed silently. Now, he didn't even have a chance to explain.

"Where are you taking me?" asked Mary expressionlessly. This time, she was not freaking out anymore. She figured that struggling at this point would be useless.

"You'll know when we get there," answered William in a tone drenched with gentleness. He then turned to look at Mary and stretched out his arm to hold her hand, but as soon as their skin touched, Mary withdrew her hand as if an electric shock surged through her.

"Don't touch me!" she warned in a voice filled with slight indifference.

And to avoid talking to him further, Mary cocked her head towards the window and decided to busy her eyes with the scenery outside. "L.Okay, " replied William defeatedly while both his hands grasped the steering wheel tighter.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the car became so dull as neither of them ever spoke again. Along the way, the surrounding views outside became more and more desolate, signaling that they were now far away from the buzzing city.

Shortly after some time, the car halted to a stop just outside a cemetery.

It was a dark and windy night, a perfect ambiance and mood to commit a heinous crime.

And just by thinking of that, Mary suddenly felt chills rushing down her spine. "Why did you bring me here?" she asked in fear, obviously creeped out.

Without saying anything, William only unfastened his seat belt, turned around, and took out a box from the back seat.

It was the ebony box!

Soon after, Mary's eyes darkened as she instantly understood the reason why William brought her here.

In the middle of the night, he took his new girlfriend to the cemetery to see the dead girl he had never forgotten. Such a strange and novel act would only be done by a man of William's caliber and personality!

"Why did you bring me here? I don't want to be here." Mary sat on the passenger seat and refused to get off the car.

"Mary, please give me another chance. I will prove with my actions that I really love you! Please!" William pleaded. He then got out of the car and opened the door of the passenger's seat.
