Love Contract novel Chapter 331

"Okay." Barry nodded. As he watched Selah walk farther away, he felt an indescribable ripple in his heart. "Be careful!" he blurted out.

Hearing his voice, Selah walked faster with her suitcase.

As soon as she was out of the villa, she could not help but cry. She did not know why she was so aggrieved and full of tears. Tears kept dripping down her face relentlessly.

Holding a delicate lighter in her hand, she continued to walk away from the villa, and most importantly, away from Barry. She recalled the time she had spent as she walked on the streets and lanes just to find the most suitable gift for Barry. Instead of resting on her free time during her shooting, she chose to find a gift for him. She was so excited to see his expression if he would like it, but she did not even have the chance to give it.

"Woo! Woo! Barry Gu..."

Selah cried as she walked. She wanted to throw the lighter away several times, but she could not make up her mind.

"Everybody! Put your hands up!"

"Handsome, come and have a drink!"

"Wow! Let's get high!"

In a bar at the center of the city, Selah was so drunk and her cheeks were extremely flushed. She handed the

empty wine glass to the bartender and said, "One more! Give me your strongest one!"

Ring. Ring. Ring.

Suddenly, her phone rang. It rang for quite some time before she swiped the screen to answer the incoming call. "Hello? Who is it?"

"Why is it so noisy? Where are you now?" A familiar male voice came through.

"I... I'm drinking! I'm having a great time! Ha ha! Jaime, why are you calling me?" she asked with a sluggish voice.

"Where are you? Answer me, Selah!" On the other end of the line, Jaime was pissed off.

"I... Shush! I won't tell you! Ha ha ha!" Selah laughed and hung up the phone quickly before Jaime could even respond. Then, she started drinking again.

"Hello? Hello! Selah..."

When Jaime found Selah, she was dancing on the dance floor. Her waist was swinging to the dynamic music, surrounded by several men.

Jaime gasped slightly. He worked so hard to find her, but why was she like this now?

"Come with me!" He squeezed through the crowd, and grabbed Selah's arm forcefully.

"What are you doing?" She was about to resist, but when she saw it was Jaime, she grinned, "Oh, it's you! How did you find me? You are awesome!"

As she was speaking, Jaime dragged her away and stuffed her and her suitcase into the car.

After that, he got into the car as well. Seeing that Selah was groaning in the backseat in protest, he asked her in an unhappy tone, "Didn't you just go back to Mr. Gu's villa? Why did you come out to drink alone?"

The smile on Selah's face immediately disappeared. She no longer looked like a drunken woman. With a trace of calmness in her eyes, she muttered, "He said he would set me free."

"Free?" Jaime frowned as he was trying to figure out what the word meant. Did Selah mean that Barry had abandoned her?

"He said he would set me free! Ha ha! Burp!" Selah burst into laughter suddenly which made her burp. "I'm so happy! I don't have to be his secret woman! That's why I'm here to celebrate! Ha ha!"

"Congratulations!" Jaime said through gritted teeth.

"But here," Selah said as she placed her hand on her left bosom, "it hurts so much! Do you think I'm insane? Am I stupid? I'm free now, but I don't want to leave."

"You are indeed stupid."

"But he promised he would wait for me! He asked me to be his woman!" Selah suddenly shouted. Her beautiful eyes were wide open, and tears streamed down her face one after another. "But why would he marry someone else? Why did I have to witness his proposal to someone else? Barry Gu! You big jerk! Woo! Woo! I don't want to be free! Bastard!"

"You are drunk." Jaime took off his glasses and pursed his lips hard.

"No! I'm not drunk!" Selah immediately retorted. She kicked and hit the backseat and cried, "I've always been so sober! I like Barry! I like him! But he wants to marry someone else!"

All of a sudden, Jaime tightened his grip on the steering wheel. Looking at Selah from the rearview mirror, he asked, "What's so good about him?" "Yes, what's so good about him?" Selah snorted. Until now, tears were streaming down her face in an unceasing manner. "He likes to give orders and play tricks on me. He is so fierce to me. He even showed me his worse side! But no matter what he does, I just can't help but like him!"

"Stop it," sighed Jaime. "Just sleep. Everything would be fine. Where are you planning to go?"

"Where else can I go?" Selah slumped on the backseat and did not want to move anymore.

Without answering, Jaime turned a corner and drove towards his house.

"I know I don't deserve him," Selah said in a cold voice while sobbing. Her eyes were closed because of dizziness and pain. "I already have a son and he is such a wonderful man. I know he deserves better. I just wish I could stay with him. I don't want anything else. But even if I could stay with him, it doesn't change the fact that he doesn't want me. Now, I don't even have the right to stand by his side."

Selah just laughed at herself like a fool. She did not say anything more in the end.

Squeak!

The car stopped in a high-end neighborhood. After getting out of the car and looking around to make sure that there was no paparazzi around, Jaime opened the door of the backseat.

Selah had already fallen asleep.

He picked her up and carried her on his shoulder. "It seems that I'm luckier than you. At least, I'm qualified to stand by your side. Also, you didn't ask me to leave," murmured Jaime.
