Falling for My Contractual Wife



Although Ava was not very smart, she had a vicious mind. Back then, Ava almost caused her to lose her child. She had yet to settle this matter with Ava. Although there was no evidence, she thought that the culprit was most likely Ava!

On the other hand, Ava was furious when she heard Grace's words.

She threatened, "What? You don't even care about your child? You're in Capern City now. As long as I want to, I can make you kneel and beg for mercy..."

Grace felt very annoyed. She hung up on Ava and blacklisted her number.

Ava looked at the phone in disbelief and cursed.

Grace looked at her phone. She did not understand how her number got leaked.

This number was not certified, and she had almost never bought anything online, so how did Ava know about it?

Had Ava been secretly following her? She had already left and Louise was the one that got together with Brian now. Why couldn't Ava just let her off?

When she thought of this, she started to panic.

At that moment, the phone rang again. Grace subconsciously trembled. She looked down and realized that it was just Justin.

She patted her chest and answered the phone. She greeted weakly, "Justin."Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Justin thought that she was sleeping and asked, "Were you sleeping? Am I disturbing you?"

She replied, "No. What can I do for you?"

He then said, "It's nothing. I just wanted to ask if you've been well recently. How's Austin doing?"

Grace thought of Ava's call just now. She hesitated for a while before saying absent-mindedly, "We're fine."

Justin immediately sensed that something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

For a moment, Grace wanted to tell him what had just happened, but then she remembered that she had already troubled Justin too much. In the end, she replied firmly into the phone, "No, I'm safe with Carson here. Nothing will happen." Justin was silent for a while.

Grace then said, "Justin, I have something I need to do so I'll hang up first."

She hung up before Justin could say anything else.

Justin glanced at his phone. His intuition told him that Grace was hiding something from him. Hence, he went straight to Grace after work.

Grace's heart skipped a beat when she heard the knock on the door.

Her brother had gone to the hospital to take care of Frederick. Now, she was at home alone with Austin.

She didn't order takeout either so who was knocking on the door outside?

She picked up a broom and walked behind the door. Her fingers subconsciously tightened around the handle. When she opened the door, she closed her eyes and hit the person hard.

As soon as Justin stepped in, he saw a broom smashing down on him. He quickly leaned back and barely dodged it.

He called out, "Grace?"

Grace heard a familiar voice and opened her eyes. The broom in her hand loosened and fell to the ground.

She muttered, "Justin... Why are you here..."

Justin frowned and said, "You're still lying to me. Did something happen? Why are you so nervous?"

Grace turned around to hide her panic. She explained, "I'm really fine. It's just that I just moved in and Carson isn't at home at the moment, so I'm a little more vigilant."

Justin entered the room and closed the door behind him. He took a few steps forward and grabbed her hand.

"Your palms are covered in cold sweat," he commented as he looked down at her palms.

She pulled her hand back and was silent for a while. In the end, she told Justin about Ava's call today where Ava threatened her.
