Love Contract novel Chapter 95

The arrogant smile on that man's face made Frank sick to his stomach as he forced the words through gritted teeth. "What the hell do you want from me?"

"Since we met each other in this life, let's be friends." The man slowly put down his gun and added, "I want you to stay in our villa for a few days. I'm sure you won't mind, will you?"

"You..."

Before Frank could finish his words, a strong blow to the back of his head knocked him unconscious.

"Take him to the Maple Pavilion!" The young lord glanced at Frank as he was falling down and said, "By the way, run a check on his information. I want all the details!"

"Yes, sir!"

The man's pensive smirk implied that there was something about Frank that had him very intrigued.

"I need to meet those guys outside the villa. Follow me!" As Frank's lifeless body got dragged away, the man rushed out of the villa with several people behind him.

In the Lan Family house in R Town. William woke up early in the morning and decided to stay in bed with his eyes wide open.

"Uh..." Mary muttered as she turned over and faced William with her little red face.

"You should get some more sleep," whispered William as he turned to look at her and then chuckled to himself.

He wondered how Frank was doing.

It was not until after the sun rose that Mary woke up from her slumber. She didn't have anything to say to William, so she rolled around in bed, idly playing with her phone.

"May I come in?"

Suddenly, Aunt Amy's voice came from outside.

Mary's eyes immediately jumped from the door to William, who also had an equally surprised look on his face.

The bodyguard slowly opened the door and led Aunt Amy into the room as she brought breakfast on a tray.

"Aunt Amy, good morning!"

"Good morning, Aunt Amy. You didn't have to do this, but thank you!"

"Good morning to you both," replied Aunt Amy, her face beaming with a smile. She walked to the bedside and gently put down the tray from her hands.

"Aunt Amy... Can we go out now?" Mary asked.

"Your father hasn't changed his mind yet." Aunt Amy shook her head, glanced at William and continued, "William, your wound... Are you feeling better today?"

"Yes, I am," said William as he nodded resoundingly.

"That's good," Aunt Amy smiled rigidly and

continued, "Have some breakfast first."

"Thank you for doing this, Aunt Amy!" Mary smiled and politely expressed gratitude.

"You're welcome, my good girl." Aunt Amy looked at Mary affectionately and gave her a gentle pat on the head.

How could such a lovely child conspire with William to trick her? William... The mere thought of this brought tears into Aunt Amy's eyes and she quickly turned around to wipe the tears from her face.

"Aunt Amy, what's wrong?" Mary asked as soon as she noticed the tears in her eyes.

"Oh, it's nothing really..." Aunt Amy waved her hand and said, "Just eat!"

"Aunt Amy," William suddenly said, "could you please ask my father to let us out?" "William..." Aunt Amy's lips trembled as she looked at him with disappointment and said, "Do you have to go? Do you really have to find him? Do you..."

Aunt Amy lowered her head and started sobbing because her throat was so sore, she could hardly say a word without feeling pain.

William's pupils contracted all of a sudden, but he remained silent.

"Aunt Amy..." Mary frowned and shyly asked, "Do you know everything?"

Aunt Amy looked at William first and then at Mary before she nodded her head. "Yesterday, your father told me that William and Frank... I just can't come to accept the truth."

Although her mouth was wide open, Mary didn't know what to say or do except for stare at William and Aunt Amy.

"I was wrong to keep the truth from you, Aunt Amy. I just hope that you can understand why I was forced to do so," said William.

"Do you even care whether I understand you or not?" With tears on her face, Aunt Amy added, "You've never treated me as family. You have never respected me, so why does my opinion matter? You're still just going to disregard it anyway, right? The only thing that matters to you is your father's permission..."

"Aunt Amy..." Mary's lips trembled as she uttered her name.

William lowered his head slightly and the expression on his face was clear indication of his suffering.

"Your father told me..." Aunt Amy continued, "Frank was taken to Japan by his father, but he disappeared as soon as he arrived there..."

"What does that mean? " William raised his head at once and clenched his fists tightly, as if flames would burst out of his eyes.

"I don't know. I've told you everything I know," said Aunt Amy, turning around and walking towards the door slowly. "I can only try to persuade your father. That's all."

The door was closed, as if it was the door to Aunt Amy's heart, and it could only be closed in a lonely manner. It seemed as though this family was going to fall apart in an instant.

Mary stood in the middle of the bedroom, completely at a loss.

"I have to go to Japan."

After making up his mind, William suddenly took a few steps forward to the door and began to bang his fists on it. "Open the door. Let me out! Let me see my father!"

"Your hand..." Mary ran to him and looked at him with concern. She took his hand and said, "The wound on your hand hasn't healed yet! You're only making it worse!"

"Let me go!" William broke away from Mary's grip and continued to pound the door vigorously. "Let me out! Otherwise, I will jump out of the window. Do you hear me? "
