Falling for My Contractual Wife

"Yeah, it's me," Grace said. "How's Carson's condition?"

"He's fine now," Vivian said. "The doctor said he can go back after staying in the hospital for a few more days. Grace, why haven't I seen you recently?"

"I'm in Seefer City right now," Grace said.

"Seefer City?" Vivian said as she widened her eyes in slight surprise. She thought, 'Isn't that my hometown?'

"Yes, Vivian," Grace said. "Too many things have happened recently... I'm physically and emotionally exhausted." As she spoke, she choked up.

"How come you ended up in Seefer City?" Vivian said. "And why are you calling me from a landline?" "My phone fell into the sea," Grace said. "I'm at Central Hospital in Seefer City right now."

Vivian knew that Grace must have been through a lot, but it wasn't something that could be explained clearly over the phone in a short amount of time.

"Are you injured?" she said. "How come you are in the hospital?"

Grace said, "It's Brian..." She could not help but choke up when she thought of Brian's current state. Vivian hurriedly said, "Grace, don't cry. Do you have any money with you right now?"

"Don't worry," Grace said. "I still have money. I'll return once Brian's condition stabilizes a bit."

With that said, Grace hung up.

Carson came out of the bathroom after taking a shower. When he saw Vivian in a daze, he asked, "What's wrong?"
