Falling for My Contractual Wife

Chapter 34

Ava’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Do I mishear her? Is Louise asking me to go to Brian’s house?‘ Ava thought.

“What’s wrong? Don’t you want to go?” Louise asked with a smile when she saw the surprised look on Ava’s face.

“No! I do!” Ava said almost immediately.

Realizing that she sounded too eager, Ava cleared her throat. “Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t agree to it because of you. I agreed to go for Brian’s sake.”

Louise had a gentle smile on her face. Meanwhile, Louise was mentally sneering at Ava.

‘Idiot! She really thinks too highly of herself. As long as I don’t agree, Ava won’t be able to step through the doors of the Francis family for the rest of her life. She doesn’t even have a bit of gratitude!‘ Louise thought.

Shannon was also shocked. The other day, Ava acted provocatively towards Louise during their meal, admitting that she liked Brian.

Louise knew that Ava liked Brian yet still asked her to go to the Francis’s home. “Is she really that generous or does she have an ulterior motive?‘ Shannon thought.

Shannon was a worldly person, but she couldn’t see through Louise.

Shannon knew her own daughter only too well. ‘What should I do if Ava went over to the Francis’s home and caused trouble?” Shannon thought.

Thinking of this, Shannon tried to dissuade Ava. “Ava, what are you going there for? You’re so clumsy. You’ll only cause trouble for your older sister.”

Ava looked at her mother in shock.

‘What is she saying? She doesn’t help me fight for the chance to marry Brian, and now she’s preventing me from going to Brian’s home! Is she really my real mom? Ava thought.

“Mom, what are you talking about? What do you mean by saying I only know to cause trouble?” Ava demanded.

Louise worried that Shannon wouldn’t allow Ava to go with her, so Louise hurriedly said, “Shannon, that won’t happen. I’m all by myself in the Francis family’s home without anybody. I just want someone to talk with.”
