Love Contract novel Chapter 84

William walked towards the door and placed his right hand on the doorknob. Hearing Mary's voice, he paused.

Mary continued, "Even if you don't like her, you should respect your elders, right? Why is it so easy for you to abuse other people's kindness? Do you think the world owes you something?"

The more Mary spoke, the more furious she became. Mary actually remembered what they said when they were drunk that night in Hainan. Aunt Amy decided not to have children for William's sake. She still remembered he said his mother cheated on Timothy and committed suicide.

It was not that she didn't feel sorry for William. She was just angry that he was still struggling with the past.

When William turned around, he saw Mary's flushed face because of sheer anger. He kept his mouth shut and said nothing.

"You're very lucky that they treat you well! I'm off duty. I'll tell them that you won't be back tonight." Mary grinned.

She then walked past William, opened the door and left.

"Ahem..." William couldn't help but cough as he frowned.

The door behind him was slammed shut with a bang. William placed his hands in his pockets. He stood still for a long time.

Since the time when he felt that the whole world was against him, he had tried his hardest to not care about anyone. 'Am I really such a coldblooded and ruthless person?'

After taking two steps, he came face-to-face with his desk and opened the second drawer on the right. A bag of medicine was lying quietly in it.

William grabbed the medicine, took out his phone and dialed a number.

"Hello, William. Are you about to leave?"

"Frank, I can't see you tonight."

"Why? What?" Frank sounded surprised. He stuttered as he said, "William, why?"

"Don't worry, Frank," William said and looked at the medicine in his hand. "My father is back. I have to go back to the family house tonight. I'm sorry."

"Oh... When did Uncle arrive?"

"He just arrived today, so I can't leave."

"Alright." Frank let out a deep sigh. If he wanted to be with William, he had to get his powerful father's permission. The stakes of this were clear.

"Then have a good rest tonight."

"You too, William."

"Okay."

Mary rushed downstairs and ran outside the AJ Building. She felt that what she did was really brave and righteous, but before she could applaud herself for her "heroic deeds", she realized a very serious problem.

She didn't have a car. Was she going to take a cab back? It was more than an hour's drive, and she didn't have that much money with her. By bus? No bus passed through the villa area.

Besides, she didn't know the specific address of the family house. Even if she did have a car, she didn't know how to get there.

"Oh my God..." Mary struggled for a long time and said in distress, "Should I call Aunt Amy? Well, I have no other choice... "

"What? Are you going to call for help?"

As soon as she took out her phone, she heard William's voice coming from behind her.

Mary jumped in surprise. She turned around and squinted her eyes. "It's none of your business."

"It's none of my business? I was just going back to the family house and figured that I should give you a ride, but it seems that I'm getting ahead of myself," William said with a smile as he walked in front of Mary.

As soon as he finished speaking, a red sports car came in front of the building. A bodyguard stepped out of the car and respectfully stood in front of William. "Sir, the car is here."

"Okay." "Don't you want to leave?" William took the car key from the bodyguard and turned his head to Mary.

"Well, if you insist." Mary's legs reacted quickly and she sat inside William's car.
