All Chapters of Contract And Marriage: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

SarinaI couldn't figure out why I was feeling strange. I've felt this way since I woke up, but I haven't told Maximus because I'm worried he might skip work again. He's been neglecting the company because of me and our child. So, as long as I could bear it, I tried my best to hide my feelings from my husband.But I felt dizzy the whole morning. Thankfully, it got a little better around noon, so I could eat a lot. The problem was, after that, I started feeling severe stomach pains as if something was stabbing me. Rocel had already told me to see a doctor, but I wanted my husband to be with me.Seeing my husband's face when he entered our bedroom made me feel a little less pain. I knew he was worried again, and I started to feel guilty. As soon as he found me, I felt I had been a burden to him. I had never given him complete happiness.And now, here we are, sitting in front of the doctor, who's asking when I last had my monthly period. I paused and looked at Maximus. "I can't remember,"

Maximus"Sir, Mr. Jason Satudez is here and wants to talk to you." I frowned when I heard Aries say that. I looked at him to make sure I heard correctly. "He's outside and waiting."I glanced at my wristwatch to check the time. I wanted to go home by lunchtime with my wife and son. But I agreed since it was still early, and I felt talking was important. Aries left after I nodded, and a few moments later, he returned with Jason."Sit down, Mr. Satudez." He didn't speak but sat in the empty chair across my office table. "What can I do for you?""You know why I'm here, Mr. Lardizabal." He spoke calmly, not looking for a fight."I have no idea, Mr. Satudez. And please, make it quick. I want to go home for lunch," I replied. Although I knew it was because of Sarina, I didn't want him to think I was open to any conversation regarding my wife."It's about Sarina.""What about my wife?""I'll pay you whatever amount you gave her, and after that, you leave her." He said it without hesitation as

MaximusThe nerve of this man was unbelievable, and it took everything in me to stop myself from hitting him. He would never take my wife from me, and from now on, I wouldn’t let him out of my sight. I needed to find out if he had anything to do with what happened to Sarina in Las Vegas because, looking at him now, I couldn’t see the man my wife once loved.He looked and sounded different from how my in-laws knew him. All the good things they say about him now contradict his actions. I love my wife and she's the best thing that happens to me, so there's no way that I am going to let that bastard take her away from me.The last three years were hell for me. I was living but I don't feel alive at all. And I didn't want to experience that ever again.“If you have nothing good to say, you can leave now, Mr. Satudez.” We stared each other down, and I could see his jaw clench before he quickly hid his anger, as if he was holding himself back just like I was. It made me think that there was m

Sarina"You're mine! You're only mine, Sarina!" I couldn't get those words out of my head. I felt so scared when I heard Jason say that. But why? Why was I so afraid? Maximus said he was my first love and childhood sweetheart, so he's jealous of my ex. But why do I feel different about him now? Why does he seem like a stranger to me?I tried to ignore my feelings because I saw how worried my husband was in his voice and face. I didn't want to add to his worries when he already seemed so burdened by just me, and now we have a child, too. I felt like I wasn't contributing enough to our relationship. So when he asked me if I wanted to return to work, I said no.It's important to me to take care of my family, and knowing how responsible and hardworking my husband is, I wanted to be the reason he relaxed when he went home after a day's work.We had fun shopping, and even though I was afraid, I still enjoyed every moment with my husband. He didn't let me think about anything else but what we

MaximusI wanted things to be good between me and Grandma, so I went to her mansion before heading to the company. I talked to her about Sarina’s condition because I didn’t want her to add to my wife’s worries, especially since I knew she wasn't well, not because of her pregnancy but because of her mental health. I feel like she’s really traumatized by everything happening in her life, and she’s just trying to stay strong so I won’t worry and also for Chase and the baby she’s carrying.I was nervous about what Grandma might do all morning, but I didn’t get any calls from the mansion, even by lunchtime, so I was relieved. I thought that maybe she didn’t bother my wife anymore. I just wanted her to understand that I’m happy with Sarina and hope she can be happy for me, too.At 2 PM, I decided to go home to be with my wife and child. But when I arrived, I found my grandma playing with Chase and Jerome. Even though I didn’t expect it, I was happy to see that. I looked around to find my wif
