Love Contract novel Chapter 340

"Dad, you were so awesome today!”

Ray yelled with so much enthusiasm as he walked out of the primary school's playground. It was already dark, but the glimmer of excitement in his eyes was still so bright.

"You were also awesome, Ray!" commented Elissa, who was walking with Selah hand-in-hand. Slightly grazing the medal on her neck, she proudly said to her elder brother, "Alick, Ray gave this gold medal to me!"

Looking at the medal, Alick felt a little envious. He wondered when the sports activities would be held in his kindergarten. He bet his father would play really great too!

"Everyone was great today." Barry smiled and glanced at Selah unconsciously.

The latter wore sportswear for that event, making her look youthful and a head-turner. She was the most beautiful mother sitting in the grandstand and cheering for her family. Some teachers and parents had even recognized and flocked around her, requesting pictures and autographs. For quite a while, the crowd was out of control, but Selah couldn't do anything but smile. More than that, she had also attracted many fathers' secret glances, making Barry uncomfortable and slightly agitated.

"Aunt Selah, you've been sitting there all day long. Are you tired? We will get in the car soon," said Alick, who looked at Selah with evident worries in his eyes.

"I..." Selah blushed. "I'm fine. Thank you, Alick."

At the same time, Barry flashed a smile and said nothing.

"Daddy Barry, I miss Mommy. Can you drop me at the hospital later?" asked Elissa, pulling the hem of Barry's shirt to catch his attention.

"Okay." Barry smiled before roaring the engine to life and driving away from the primary school.

Along the way, the three kids played cheerfully in the backseat, jumping and shouting in sheer joy, which made Selah a little worried. "Be careful. It's dangerous to play when the car is moving. Sit still!"

"Don't worry about them; they know what they're doing. The boys can take care of Elissa," Barry said as he reached out his hand to hold Selah's.

"You..." The sudden warmth of his hand against her skin startled Selah. "What...What are you doing? The kids will see..." she stuttered, blushing as she craned her head to look at the kids again.

Barry arched his eyebrow, and soon a trace of bitterness emanated on his face. "Then, I'll let go." Slowly, he raised his hand and unclasped his fingers from hers.

"No!" Before he could fully untangle their hands, Selah quickly held his hand back, placing it in its former position.

Barry seemed to have expected this and smiled more proudly, evidently satisfied.

"Will this affect you while you are driving?" Selah, who was pretending to be calm, didn’t realize that her face was beet red.

"Isn't it too late for you to ask this question now?" Barry asked with a smirk. After pausing for a while, he continued, "Besides, you're blushing right now. If you keep being like this, I can't help but want to kiss you."

"Aww! Daddy Barry! So sweet!" Hearing their conversation, Elissa stood up and pointed her head between the two front seats. "My father also likes to kiss Mommy a lot."

"Ha-ha!" Both Barry and Selah, and even the kids, instantly burst into laughter, filling the car with such a positive vibe.

Meanwhile, back in the hospital, Mary was having dinner with William.

"Feed me!" William opened his mouth, playing cute and pretending to wait on the food.

"Eat it or leave it." Rolling her eyes at him, Mary caressed her belly and uttered, "I want to eat with my baby."

"Hey, I'm injured..."

"Dad is acting like a spoiled child again." Elissa's voice suddenly penetrated the ward, making both Mary and William turn their heads towards the door. Several people came in one after another as soon as it clicked. "You act like a spoiled kid better than I do, Daddy," the little girl continued to say as she stepped foot inside.

"Oh, you are here!" Mary instantly stood up with a smile etched on her lips. "How's the sports meeting today?"

"Not bad, isn’t it?" Barry answered, smiling at Selah and Ray to ask for their confirmation.

"Mommy," said Elissa, with her chest up proudly, "look! This is Ray's gold medal. He won first place!"

"Wow, that's great!" Struggling with her now swollen belly, Mary bent down and kissed Elissa.

"Humph!" William stood up arrogantly and snorted disdainfully. "It's just a gold medal. Alick, when will your kindergarten have its sports meeting? I'll win you two gold medals."

"Really, Daddy! Yey!" Alick nodded hard, almost jumping out of sheer excitement.

'He still wants to dominate even with children's activities! How childish!' Mary thought to herself.
