Love Contract novel Chapter 327

"A child?" Lucas asked. "Whose child? How old is the child? Is it a boy or a girl? What does he or she have to do with you?"

"Why do you ask so many questions? Just do as what you're told!" Barry gritted his teeth.

"You are the same as William! What's wrong with asking those questions? I'm just curious. Besides, I'm a doctor. I should know the details of the patient in question.

Even William..."

Lucas was still nagging on the phone when Barry hung up on him. Finally, Barry got the silence he craved.

That afternoon, after completing her work, Selah returned to the villa. She had a nervous mood on. She had schooled herself over and over during the day to avoid getting on Barry's nerves.

To her surprise, Barry didn't return to the villa that day. For several days, he didn't come home at all.

Selah felt much better in his absence.

She used his bathroom and slept in his bed! She swore to herself that one day, she would give her son such a comfortable life too.

On the day that the celebration party of "Be Together" was to hold, Selah remembered that he had mentioned that he would take her to the party. But it was about five o'clock in the afternoon, and there was no news of him.

Holding the invitation card that Mary sent, Selah hesitated to call Barry.

'Well, I'll just call him! In any case, as part of the "Be Together" crew, I have to be there too!'

She was about to dial his number when his call came in.

"Hello? Mr. Gu?" She answered the phone in a hurry.

"Where are you?" Barry's hoarsely sexy voice came through the phone.

"I'm at the villa."

"Okay." He seemed to be satisfied with her answer. "I'll be there in twenty minutes. Get ready. I'm taking you to the celebration party tonight."

"Okay, I will."

"Bye."

After hanging up, Selah sat on the bed. There wasn't too much getting ready to do. After a few minutes, she went downstairs and waited for Barry outside the villa.

In about ten minutes, his car arrived. Seeing Selah waiting at the door, he beamed. She could see that he was in a good mood.

'Well, she's waiting obediently for me. Good girl!' he mused.

"Mr. Gu, you're back!" She hurried to meet him.

"Yes." He carried a bag in his hand. He handed it to her with one hand, his other hand dug deeply into his pocket.

"What's this?" she asked hesitantly.

"An evening dress! Or what were you planning to wear?" Barry walked forward. "Change into it quickly. You still have to do your hair."

"Oh!" Selah followed him with the bag in her hand.

In the living room of the villa, Barry had already changed into his suit and was waiting downstairs, checking his watch from time to time. 'Women are really something! It's been more than thirty minutes. Why hasn't she come out? Just to change her clothes and make her hair!'

Then it occurred to him. Why didn't he ever feel that Mary was troublesome when they were together?

Barry's body froze at the thought. Perhaps, it was not because Mary was faster, but because at that time, he had no choice but to wait for her.

"Tap. Tap. Tap."

The sound of the heels came from the second floor. Selah walked down, holding her handbag.

Barry shook his head, stood up, and looked towards the stairs. He was amazed at what he saw.

Selah wore a white strapless dress, which made her skin fairer. Her dress stopped at her knees, revealing her straight and slender legs. Her short hair was dark brown, striking the balance between fluffy and soft. She looked pure and stunningly sexy.

"Mr. Gu, is this okay?" Selah walked up to him and asked shyly.

"Yes." His Adam's apple bobbed as he got lost in fantasy.

Selah smiled, "When do we leave?"

"Right now. It will take an hour to get there."

"Alright. I'm ready."

When they arrived outside the hotel where the party was being held, Barry and Selah got out of the car from the different sides.
