Lahat ng Kabanata ng A Contract Marriage With My Boss: Kabanata 81 - Kabanata 90

The maid intervenes immediately, pushing her away."Serena, you really have no sense of propriety!"Serena leaned back a little as she was pushed, banging her head against the wall and hitting her head on the floor.The maid wears a triumphant expression.The bitch deserved it!In pain, Serena's tears almost burst forth.Seeing the arrogant look on the maid's face, Serena lifts her hand and delivers a resounding slap.*Slap!*The maid's face bears five clear fingerprints, and she covers her cheek in disbelief."Serena, you..."Before she can finish her sentence, Serena delivers another slap.*Slap!*Serena's strength is considerable, and her hand hurts after hitting twice.Her gaze is icy as she rubs her wrist.The maid's cheek instantly swelled and blood spilled from the corner of her mouth."Are you FUCK awake now? Who do you think you are?!"Serena's voice was cold as she looked down and rubbed her wrist weakly.The maid, intimidated by Serena's gaze, steps back, covering her face

As she walked away, Serena's face still unattractive and miserable, she casually bought a bowl of porridge and sat down in the small shop to eat it.Waiting for her mood to ease a bit, she took out her cell phone and looked at the messages on it.Her eyebrows furrowed as she noticed the contents of the forum, Linda was determined to make a big deal out of this.Public opinion would always be on the side of the underdog, and since Linda had committed suicide, people were more than willing to believe that she was the underdog.Serena rubbed her forehead, she really didn't have any proof about Linda and her stepfather.Now that Linda had come to testify against her, there was really nothing she could do for a while.In that case, let's try it with this so-called stepfather.The corner of Serena's mouth twitched, actually she didn't want to deal with such a man, but this was all forced on her by Linda, and if this matter wasn't resolved as soon as possible, she was afraid that Henry would

These days, Serena hardly rested.After the surgery, Granny entered a critical period, and only when that passed could her safety be ensured.Serena was busy shuttling between the company and the hospital, rarely returning to Pines Ridge. This made a certain man unhappy.Since their last unpleasant encounter, they hadn't spoken for several days.The atmosphere in the villa was tense. Matthew sat on the sofa, his brows occasionally furrowing. "Has Serena returned?"This was the ninth time he had asked today. Since coming back from the company, he had been sitting there, waiting."Sir, Madam's grandma will soon pass the critical period. She's expected to return tonight."Matthew nodded, his face regaining some indifference.At seven in the evening, the servant respectfully spoke, "Sir, should I bring up dinner?""Hmm." He answered faintly, occasionally glancing toward the door.Why hasn't she come back yet?At half-past seven, the door of the villa opened, and a tired Serena walked in,

Serena calmly looked at him, reaching out to cup his face." I just want you to understand that it's not that I'm unwilling, but rather, you are. You have a strong sense of responsibility. I am only your nominal wife, and you protect me at every turn, preventing me from harm. If you take away my body, the two-year agreement might become void. You are well aware of this, so since we got married, you have never thought about what could happen between us. Even when you hold me or kiss me, you've never thought about it in that way."Matthew's hand, pressing down on the blanket, stiffened. A complex emotion suddenly surged in his silent eyes.This was the first time a woman had held his face and said such things to him.He pursed his lips, but ultimately remained silent."Matthew, you are a good man. If I had met you earlier, maybe I would have loved you, but my love has already run out."Everyone thought she fell in love with Jack during college, but in reality, it happened even earlier.

Matthew walked down from the car not far away. He had seen her crouching here for quite a while.Could it be that she was feeling upset because he took advantage of her last night?With such thoughts, he hesitated but eventually got out of the car.There lay a dog on the ground, poisoned to death, and Serena held a thermos box.If someone saw this scene, they would probably think Serena was a psychotic poisoner.However, Matthew didn't see it that way.When he saw the dog foaming at the mouth, a cold glint flashed in his eyes."What happened?"Serena's legs felt weak, and when she stood up, she almost stumbled.Matthew reached out to support her, immediately forgetting the morning's unpleasantness."Matthew, have someone investigate the owner of this thermos."Poisoning like this was a cruel method. The thermos had been with her the whole afternoon, and she didn't notice anything.If she had taken a sip, she might have met her end by now.Matthew nodded, his face chilling.Serena's ey
