Falling for My Contractual Wife

Chapter 31

Brian froze, stunned.

Seeing how Grace bit her lip as she hurled her accusations against him, Brian felt at a loss.

Grace said all this on purpose. She knew if she didn’t dispel Brian’s doubts, he would continue investigating the matters between her and Justin. Then, it’d be very likely that Brian would find out about her pregnancy since there was a record of it in the hospital.

But at the same time, Grace was nothing but sincere with her words, which caused an inexplicable tug at Brian’s heart when he saw the wetness in Grace’s eyes.

Brian couldn’t figure out what emotions he was feeling. He obviously wanted to teach Grace a lesson, but Brian’s anger deflated when he heard her words and saw her like this.

Brian cleared his throat. His face was still very gloomy, but the light in his eyes was not so cold.

He sarcastically said, “You like me? Ha, you just like my money!”

Grace looked at him in disbelief. ‘Am I really this kind of woman in his heart?‘ Grace thought.

She laughed angrily, “Yes, you’re right! I just like your money. I wouldn’t like you if you didn’t have money, so why do you think I’ll like a poor doctor?”

Brian was dumbfounded. For a moment, he was so stunned that he couldn’t speak.

‘Dammit! I clearly came to give her trouble. Why am I cowed by a few words from her? Brian thought.

Brian was very unhappy. “Whatever. Know your place. If some random person learns of your relationship with me and it affects my wedding with Louise, I will hold you accountable!”

Grace’s heart ached when she heard Brian’s words..

‘So he came to ask me all this, not because he cared that I liked Justin, but because he’s worried it will affect his wedding with Louise, Grace thought.

Grace laughed bitterly to herself.

“Don’t you think you’re being contradictory? You claim that I like Dr. Vance, but if I really liked Dr. Vance, I would certainly do my best to hide that I’m married. Wouldn’t getting together with him save me a lot of trouble after I divorce you? Just like how you’re keeping Louise in the dark?”

“You!” Brian was exasperated.
