Love Contract novel Chapter 275

Mary screamed. She did not expect to meet him here, so she took a step back in shock.

Hearing Mary's voice, William hurried forward and pulled Mary behind him. He did not expect that Frank would be here either.

A coincidence? Or did Frank follow them?

"William..." Frank's face darkened while looking at the two. His eyes darted towards William's wound and asked with concern, "How's your injury?"

Meanwhile, Mary stood aside and wiped the tears on her face silently. Instead of listening to Frank, she ridiculed herself in her heart. 'Did these two come here to disgust me more together?'

"Not bad." William nodded curtly and took Mary's hand to leave.

"Let go of me!" With a cold look on her face, Mary glanced at Frank and then glared at William. "Stop being a hypocrite! Who exactly do you want me to see? Sansa or Frank? You have to put up a full play, William. You've screwed everything up!"

Mary frowned and left, passing by in between the two men. Such a bad luck in the middle of the night. ''Mary!'1

"William!" Frank grabbed William's hand and asked, "Why are you here? You still... You still can't let her go, right?"

Seeing that Mary angrily got on the car instead of running away, William felt relieved. He turned to face Frank and answered curtly, "I'm here to end everything."

"End? What do you mean?" Frank's eyes were wide open in shock. He was not sure what to make of William's words so he looked at the direction of Sansa's tombstone. A faint red light was still there, accompanied by faint smoke curling upwards to the sky. The ebony box was covered with soot and ashes. "My sister didn't leave too many things to you. How could you bear to burn them all?"

"I should have done it before," said William regretfully while looking at Frank. "Frank, it's you who told Mary about Sansa. What you did only made me hate you even more! Moreover," William added through gritted teeth, "you were the one who bought the videos from Andy and Beth. I really didn't expect that I would be fooled by those stupid women. You are the more hateful one, Frank. When did you become like this? You're so despicable!"

"You know everything..."

"Of course I do!" William narrowed his eyes dangerously and said, "I thought what happened to Victor was an accident. It turns out that from the bottom of your heart, you are cruel to begin with. It's all my fault. I never should've thought highly of you. I thought you would never end up like this!"

At the moment, he just stared at Frank. He wished he could vent all the unhappiness and anger in his heart.

"William, I did them all for you!" Frank grabbed William's sleeve and cried, "Please come back to me!"

William shook off Frank's arm coldly. "We can't go back to where we used to be. Four years ago, I already told you that we were done. This video incident isn't over yet. I'll ask someone to resolve it."

"Resolve it? How?" Frank laughed sardonically and added, "It was me who disclosed the videos, but it was you who's in them! No one forced you to be there! You did it yourself!"

Hearing that, William felt a chill down his spine. Every word Frank said was right. It was his fault.

"In your eyes, I'm useless and will only make you sick." Frank looked at him dejectedly and sneered, "Mary cares about the videos, but I don't!"

"Fuck off!" William ejaculated. "Next time I see you, I'll pretend that I don't know you. If you make trouble again, we'll be on the opposite side. I don't want to see that day. Don't force me!" Then, he passed by Frank and left without looking back.

"William! William Lan!" Frank roared. He stood petrified in spot as he watched William leave. In fact, he lost count how many times he had watched William walk away from him.

Outside the cemetery, Mary was sitting in the car quietly. When she heard Frank's crazy cries, she peered through the window, only to see William walking towards the car.

Bang!

William opened the door and smiled at Mary. "Mary, I'm sorry for making you waiting. Let's go back."

Mary did not answer. To be frank, she did not want to talk to him.

The car started slowly and made a turn away from the cemetery. They left shortly after.

"Mary, I didn't expect him to come," explained William while driving. "I just took you to see Sansa tonight. The night of the award ceremony happened to be the anniversary of Sansa's death. That's why I left there and came to the cemetery in a hurry."

"I don't want to hear it." Mary closed her eyes and sighed deeply. "To be honest, I was not waiting for you. If you had not taken the car key with you, I would have driven the car away." "Mary," said William bitterly, "I'm sorry. Can you forgive me?"

"Forgive you? Keep dreaming!"

Bang!

Before Mary could finish her words, she heard a loud bang from the cemetery. It seemed to be an explosion of some sort.

The loud sound made her startled in her seat.

"Don't be afraid!" Noticing her expression, William frowned and comforted her. "It's probably because of a broken tire. It's all right!"

"It's none of your business."

"Yes, it is! Your business is my business! Mary, I...” William swallowed hard before continuing, "I will take good care of you and our children. We'll be together happily for a lifetime."

Mary sneered, "How many women have you said the same words to?"

"No one! I only said them to you! The others..." William was about to reason out but found it was difficult for him to defend himself. "Others.

"The others were just to satisfy your lust?" Mary finished his words for him impatiently. "Right? Are you sure I'm not one of them? Whether four years ago or now, I got fooled by you." ''Mary!'1

"Stop it!" Mary shouted. She bit her lips and said in a spiteful tone, "I don't want to hear your excuses anymore. Even your voice makes me sick!"

The words that William was about to say stopped right at the tip of his tongue. He had never felt so aggrieved by her. With a squeak, the car came to halt in a place where no one was around.

Without hesitation, William pulled Mary's arm, held her head with his other hand. Suddenly, he pressed his thin lips against hers.

"What are you doing?" Mary cried out with fear. She tried her best to push him away but he did not budge. Suddenly, she felt sick to her stomach and felt the urge to vomit. "Ew! Blaargh!

She instinctively turned her face away and retched.

"Mary, are you okay?" William was scared and frantic. He had no idea what to do. All he wanted was to kiss her. How could it be like this?

Mary felt her chest tighten so she took multiple deep breaths. Once she calmed down, she opened the door and ran to the side of the road. She went to the nearest tree and leaned there before retching again.

"Mary!" William got out of the car in a hurry. With an anxious look on his face, he stood beside Mary and slightly patted her back. "What's wrong with you?"
