Late at night, the old lady suggested Monica drink the milk she was hesitant to drink it, but the lady persuaded Monica by telling her that she had been out in the cold night for a long time and had traveled so far that she could feel uncomfortable the next day. The old lady believed that drinking this milk would provide her with ease before retiring to bed. Despite having accepted it, Monica now found it difficult to drink.

Monica ascended the bed and sat close to William's head, carefully placing the glass on the table next to the bed. The doctor had not dressed William but had laid a big, soft blanket over his body to keep him warm, and the fireplace was also extremely bright, so the temperature in the room was very comfortable.

In addition to being extremely upset over William's injuries, Monica also took issue with William's silence. He had been warning her all along that her life could be in jeopardy, so why hadn't he mentioned that he was also a target?

    ★★★William shifted a little on the bed as morning approached, but he felt something heavy on his chest. After letting out a long breath and cautiously opening his eyes, he discovered Monica's head resting on his chest. Her body contorted into a ball as she lay next to him, her breath dropping steadily over his chest and pressing against his naked flesh.He wanted her to wake up, but as he poked her, she cuddled close to his chest, and he discovered she didn't have a blanket over her body.“This lady!" He let out a sigh and peered towards the fireplace, where he noticed that the flames had diminished, making the room feel more chilly. After that, he carefully removed his blanket and covered Monica, who instantly cuddled closer to the warmth emanating from William's body. Having never allowed a man and woman to get this near before, William stopped dead when Monica reached out and put her hands around her waist, causing him to experience tingling sensations.He was at a loss as to

    ★★★★ “Your father is here!" With a curious murmur, Monica withdrew her gaze from the door and wondered if William's father was aware of what had happened to his son. “No, my grandfather has arrived," William said in a low tone, his thoughts racing to figure out what motive could be behind his grandfather's presence. He was about to visit his grandfather in his place with Monica. "You just need to follow me as I proceed," William said as he released Monica's waist and descended to the bed in order to reach the wardrobe for a change of clothes. "Is he more severe than you are? Will he also annoy me?" With a focused tone, Monica inquired about the outcome of her meeting William's grandfather prior to getting out of bed as well. William's hand plugged up just as it was about to open the cabinet door. He heard Monica's true thoughts, and a tiny smile came to his lips. He pivoted and uttered, "He might be if your attitude doesn't impress you, as he yearns to accept my unexpected marri

    ★★★★Monica took quick strides towards the hall and arrived after a few marches, her eyes catching sight of the back of an old guy sitting on the sofa, while William sat on the king couch across from him.“Come over here and meet him; he's my granddad."When William spoke, she straightened her back and glanced at him, wondering what she was going to do next. Moving swiftly to William, she extended her arms to grasp one of William's shoulders before looking directly into the icy eyes of the elderly man.“The woman I married. Just ignore her outfit because we arrived here last night and I didn't arrange any women's clothes in this place. By the way, she looks fine wearing my clothes,” William responded by putting his hand around her waist and pulling her in close, causing her to fall onto the couch's handrest. William's sudden gesture stunned Monica a little because all of her focus was on his grandfather, who was staring at her with a chilly, suspicious stare.“What sort of busine

    ★★★ “You sound ridiculous, Grandfather. By the way, I learned that Dad has planned a lavish celebration for your birthday." William quickly shifted the subject after noticing that Monica was rubbing her hands together tensely, seemingly because she was mulling over what his grandfather had said. “Your father cannot make such a large effort without a compelling reason, but I have no notion," William's grandfather responded, furrowing his brows in thought at what Winston was contemplating. As he grew older, he became increasingly concerned about his son's drift away from the proper path. William glanced at Monica's way before directing his gaze to his grandfather and uttering the words, "I don't think Father has any hidden agenda since Father truly loves you." With a sigh, Grandfather said, “Jerry asks you to come over for supper with your wife so he can make dinner for the two of you. Jerry wanted to see your wife. He is too old, therefore I removed him from his job. However, he is

    ★★★★“Will you enlighten me on what has taken place, Dad? Since we have both remained motionless for so long, my exhaustion has increased. I am still trying to figure out why I've been called,"Katherine inquired of her father, who was seated across from her on a chair with a table in front of him, reading a file. Katherine was irritated because there was no need to call her and keep her here if there was so much work her father had in his hand.Mr. Hughes took off his spectacles and placed the file down from his grasp before turning to face his daughter.“You seem to be lost in your own thoughts, Katherine. I had assumed that by coming here you could have discovered what you have been called to, but unfortunately, your brain has stopped working. I have granted you the freedom that no other powerful family has granted their kids as we are concerned with the family's name. However, it appears that you no longer give a damn about the boundaries you were raised with but were never co

  • The Contract Marriage With An Arrogant Billionaire   Monica got pissed

    ★★★★ When William got to his room, he couldn't find Monica inside, so he went to the bathroom, which was also unoccupied. His brows wrinkled, and he moved to exit the room, but before he could do so, a servant appeared at the door and made a deep bow. "Doctor Cesar has come for your examination, master. Do you want to meet him elsewhere, or should I invite him here?” “Where is she?!" William felt the need to find out about Monica first, so he asked the servant about her. "Aaa.. I apologize! Regarding whom are you inquiring?" The servant inquired when he thought the master would want to see another servant. “My wife!" William's impatience grew up in his voice because he didn't think he needed to tell the servant who could be the woman he was looking for. “Oh, yes. Your wife went to the next room with a new dress that Sir. Sam has sent this morning," The servant replied with his head bowed, while a gust of wind walked past him. Raising his head, he noticed his master was no longer

  • The Contract Marriage With An Arrogant Billionaire   William turned cold

    ★★★★“What if you get the chance to have a family one day? What will you do?"William inquired, his tense nerves soothed after much effort. Although he understood this was not something he should be aware of, what she had in her thoughts was critical for him to know.Monica blinked, taken aback by his inquiries. Even though it wasn't a really significant question, Monica found it a little odd to hear it come from his lips, and William didn't appear to be speaking nonchalantly.After a moment, she released her breath and said, "I will, as I've spent years living alone and am now eager to start a family and raise kids."Her response was spot-on and sincere, and as she had been considering it for a while, she did not keep it a secret from William."You won't be able to judge if the guy you are marrying is good or bad if your thoughts get too deep,"William responded, feeling as though someone had seriously injured him, as he looked into her eyes and saw the truth flowing there.“

    ★★★Baron climbed on a private jet with William and they were off to Australia. It was unneeded for William to travel to Australia so quickly, but he felt the need to flee one thing that made him desperate. At that particular moment, he believed that the longer he saw Monica, the more he would waste his time with his other ideas.“I was thinking that Boss...umm..!"William never liked to be negative about anything, so Baron hesitated as his throat clenched."You can't fix that business in a day. Aside from that, Miss Katherine's father notified me this morning that he will be coming to meet you in the office with his daughter. I feel you ought to consider your fiancee!"To be honest, Baron was reluctant to speak about it with his boss, but he was anxious that William would be upset if he didn't tell him about his fiance, who was soon to be his wife, and eventually became an important person to his boss.William gave Baron a hard glance that mostly made Baron cringe due to its de

  • The Contract Marriage With An Arrogant Billionaire   The happy ending

    1 day later ★★ William told the reporters that he did not consider Winston to be his father, nor did he consider his family to be his family, which was why he ejected them from the Makenzie Mansion, which he owned entirely. However, the reason was not the past William exposed about Winston, but rather that Winston was the one who liberated that boat on the water for Brian to escape with Monica to ensure he could injure William by harming Monica, allowing Winston to find the peace he sought. William would harshly punish anyone who intended to hurt his wife. As a result, Winston went to Elder Mackenzie's house because it was the only place he could stay. Mark had brought Jayla with him, who was devastated with sadness and suffering. The condition had dug such a deep pit in her heart, that she was unable to sob anymore. Brian's cruel tortures had left her daughter in critical condition in the hospital. She was given a drug by him that fully paralyzed her body and impacted her brain,

    ★★★★During dinner, there was a lot of noise in the castle. When they got home, the doctor gave everyone a thorough examination. After that, everyone went to their respective rooms for a long rest which their bodies required because they were all exhausted, including Danielle, who stayed up all night drinking strong coffee. Danielle took care of Cornell and baby Lucas, who slept soundly in his cradle because he had his mommy's handkerchief. Cornell had said that Lucas would never cry as long as he had something that belonged to his mother. She found that to be incredibly fascinating, and she did see it.Mr. Liam placed a cloth that belonged to Jessica next to Lucas and he did not cry, rather he had a sweet smile on his face and even responded to her words. Despite the fact that her mind was preoccupied with dread and tension, she nonetheless managed to survive the period thanks to Cornell and Lucas.The dining table was packed with buzzing folks while Lucas was sleeping in the roo

  • The Contract Marriage With An Arrogant Billionaire   Brian got killed by Liam

    ★★★★William pointed the gun towards Brian, who pulled Monica up on her feet with her hair before throwing his arm around her neck and placing a knife next to her throat as he screamed, "I will ensure that the knife goes through her throat as soon as you release the bullet. So, toss the weapon away!" Brian smirked, his tone relaxed, and there was no indication that he wanted to flee or speculate on anything else."Let go of her; I will spare your life, and your parents will also be able to escape such situations," William spoke in a chilly tone, his gaze fixed on Monica and the knife in her throat, which terrified him. He dreaded nothing, but seeing Monica in destitution was excruciating."I said throw the gun, bastard!" Brian bellowed with hateful eyes as if he was watching his sworn enemy in front of him; the individual who caused pain, shame everything, even took his love away."Alright!" William replied and tossed the gun far away from him, “Now, withdraw the knife from her. Y

    ★★★★ "Monica, there is no lock on the door! Would you mind trying to shatter the wall while I stand here and watch to see if anyone approaching the room? After that, I will try to break the wood and you will take my place. Aside from that, I have no idea how I would handle this circumstance," Jessica advised. Monica nodded to her, then turned to face the window and pushed the wood out as hard as she could. Even though the wood was a little old, it was still a little challenging for a woman to push. Monica was having trouble breaking it with her hand, therefore, she used the back of her arm to push the wood, which made a 'Crack!' sound. "SIGH!" Monica expelled a laborious breath since she was tired and hungry; as a result, even a simple chore exhausted her. Jessica raced over to her and began pushing the loosened wood, which still needed a little push to break. But they were both unable to, so Jessica responded, "Okay, we will push together on 3." "Now, one, two, and..." "And 3, my

    ★★★★ Brian supported his two hands on two long sticks which were already inside the room at the corner of the door, which demonstrated that Brian had already thought of everything for himself. He held his injured leg up in the air while walking with the help of those sticks as he led Jessica to meet the patient. The trepidation felt never-ending as if the more she walked with Brian the further the fear thrived. Jessica looked around and saw guys standing with rifles in front of that door, and just as Brian came to a halt, Jessica did as well. "OPEN THE DOOR!" Brian addressed his men in an authoritative tone as he looked sideways for Jessica, who was staring at her surroundings. Jessica fixed her gaze on the door as Brian's voice rose and she noticed his man holding the door open. Brian stepped inside first, so she didn't dilly-dally and hurried inside quickly, where she discovered Monica with her face on her knees as her legs crouched on her chest. In contrast, Monica knew Brian h

  • The Contract Marriage With An Arrogant Billionaire   Brian ordered Jessica

    ★★★★ "I am a nurse; I have been working as an intern for a week, but I seldom encounter difficulties," Jessica responded in a soft tone, portraying herself as a helpless girl so that Brian would believe she posed no threat to this area or to him. She had to be patient with her goal of finding Monica because any error may throw their strategy off track, and Brian, from what she gathered, would not mind shooting her and Monica if necessary. "What?!" The doctor was horrified that the hospital sent an intern with him instead of a skilled nurse, especially because he suggested that he required someone who was proficient in tending to the wound. "Why did not you tell me beforehand that you were not an experienced nurse?” The doctor lambasted Jessica, who had said absolutely nothing to him until now. "Dr. I apologize for it, but I expected you to ask me something, but you remained silent throughout the drive, and I couldn't have the guts to speak with you." Jessica expressed regret to the

  • The Contract Marriage With An Arrogant Billionaire   Brian noticed everything

    ★★★★ Jessica sat in the backseat as the Doctor drove the car to an unknown location with few lights visible from the woods. She wouldn't deny that her soul was seeping out in dread. Despite her preparation, there was concern that she was no longer capable of eliminating. There was little time left in the morning, but she didn't expect to obtain much sunshine because the weather was chilly and dismal. As they walked out the door, two armed guys approached and stated, "Before we go inside, we need to search you." "I am the doctor, and he knows me well!" the doctor grumbled, gritting his teeth. He had already taken so many risks, leaving aside the danger of being apprehended by the cops. Not only was he compelled to come here, but Brian also made threats to harm his family. "That doesn't mean we will ignore the given orders," one of them grumbled at the doctor before moving his gaze to Jessica, which immediately disgusted her, and she quickly said, "If there is no woman to search me,

    ★★★★“Brian asked his physician to come treat his leg over the phone. The location is on the outskirts of the city, not anywhere nearby. Well, In addition, I saw an old cottage near the forest from where the call has happened," Cornell spoke to William, who was momentarily at a loss for words, before approaching the couch and settling in next to him."How are you aware of it?” William asked, focusing his attention on the laptop where he noticed a red dot in a specific area. Though it was unclear what the location was, it appeared to be on the outskirts of town, and the forest was close by.“While traveling to Edinburgh, my mother and I learned more about Brian. And we came across that Brian met a specific doctor, with whom he typically had check-up appointments due to his rare illness. Though we aren't positive, my mother has some reservations that Brian would look for someone to get in touch with. I therefore hacked the doctor's phone number."Turning on the recording he saved fo
