Love Contract

Chapter 226 Enemies Are Destined To Meet (Part On^

In Kylin International Community.

William drove the car from the underground parking lot while Mary was sitting next to him. They were heading to their family house.

"Ha ha!" Mary laughed as she watched the reporters leave dejectedly. "You made them dismissed just by a phone call. You really are capable, aren't you?"

"Do you think you've found a treasure?" William turned around and looked at Mary

narcissistically.

"Don't flatter yourself." Mary glanced at him, dissatisfied.

William grinned and put his hand on Mary's, and squeezed it gently.

"Go away!" Mary pushed his hand away playfully. Suddenly, her phone rang unexpectedly.

"Who is it?" asked William.

"Shush." Mary took out her phone and looked at the caller ID. "It's Barry."

Touching his nose, William thought, 'Hasn't he given up after yesterday's dinner party and today's news?'

"Hello?" With a guilty conscience, Mary answered the phone.

"You finally turned on your phone, Mary," Barry said hastily.

"I... My phone ran out of power this morning." Mary bit her lips and stammered at her words.

"I see," Barry answered indifferently. Nobody could tell his emotion right now, not even Mary.

"Barry, I-"

"I heard that Alick and Elissa were picked up by their grandparents," Barry interrupted Mary before she could even find the words to say. "That's good. I happen to be very busy in the company these days. I don't have time to accompany them."

"Then," Mary said with a relief, "Then don't be so hard working. Take care of yourself too. The movie shooting is going to end soon. I'll be very busy as well. It would be nice to let the elderly watch the children."

"Yes, it is," answered Barry. "Take care of yourself too. I have to hang up now."

"Oh. Okay. Bye." She seemed dissatisfied with their conversation but she just nodded.

"You seem very disappointed!" While driving the car, William heard Mary's slight sigh. This made his heart feel a little unhappy.

"Not disappointed, but guilty." Mary's eyes darkened and she continued, "He has been with me for so many years. Whenever I think of it, I feel very sorry for him."

"I know." Hearing what she felt, William sighed. He knew what exactly she meant as he had the same feeling towards Frank.

"Oh my God! I feel so bad," Mary exclaimed as she buried her face in her hands,

"You can't be divided into two parts," said William, while holding her hand. "If only you have a sister, preferably a twin sister, then just let her be with Barry and everything will be fine.

"Ha ha." Mary rolled her eyes at him. "It's impossible. Go and get a clone. What a joke! Besides, if I had a twin sister, would you fall in love with her?"

William shook his head firmly and answered, "I like you, Mary Lu. Even if she were your twin sister with a similar face, how could I fall in love with her?"

"You are right. Barry has the same thoughts as you."

"You are right."

In the CEO's office of GM Universing Studios. After Barry hung up the phone, his assistant scratched his head and asked, "Mr. Gu, have we been busy recently? I don't think you have much work to do these days."

Barry suddenly raised his head and looked at Cooper sharply.

Cooper sensed a murderous look in Barry's eyes and an idea flashed in his mind. He quickly said, "Mr... Mr. Gu, I have something else to do. I'll go out first."

"Go." Barry waved his hand and dismissed him coldly.

With a click of the door closing, the office was quiet again.

Barry rubbed his eyebrows, leaned back heavily, and sat on his office chair dejectedly.

He did not know why, but when he heard Mary's voice with hesitation, his heart seemed to shatter in pieces. He was afraid that Mary would say something he could not bear so he could only choose to escape, the most cowardly way to defend his little selfishness.

Meanwhile, William and Mary arrived at the family house in R Town. When the two kids who were playing in the yard saw them, they immediately rushed over.

"Mommy! Dad!"

"Dad! Mommy!" Mary opened her arms to welcome the kids but they opted to squeeze into William's arms. With that, she withdrew her arms slowly and awkwardly.

"Dad, you looked so handsome when you danced! " Elissa looked at William with yearning and thought, 'My dad is awesome!'

"Did you watch it, Elissa?" William asked as he kissed her on the cheek.

"Yes, I did."

"I saw it too!" Alick answered quickly. "Dad and Mommy were on TV!"

"Daddy is very handsome, right?" William raised his eyebrows and looked at Alick expectantly.

"Yes!" Alick nodded enthusiastically.

Seeing the three of them talking together and totally ignoring her like a fool, Mary did not know how to react.

"Ah, Mary is back with William!" At this moment, Amy came out of the villa with a plate of fruits in her hand. When she saw them, she said in surprise, "I was just wondering if you would come back, and you did."

"Aunt Amy, thank you for taking care of the two kids." Mary greeted her while smiling warmly.

"It's no big deal. How I wish they could stay here longer," said Amy, putting down the things on the table. "Your father was very happy when the two kids stayed here last night."

"It's good that Aunt Amy and Father don't feel bothered."

"Of course not!"

"Aunt Amy!" William greeted Amy as he walked towards them with two kids in his arms.

"Mommy! Grandma!" Elissa called them sweetly.

"Good girl!"

"Mommy!" Alick opened his arms as if asking for a hug.

Mary deliberately pretended to be angry. "What? You didn't greet Mommy when I came in. I don't want to hold you now!"

"But," said Alick while biting his lips. His face was both gloomy and sad. "I just greeted Mommy."

As Mary saw the grievance on his face, her heart softened. She opened her arms and comforted him, "Good boy, Alick. Mommy will give you a big hug."

"I want a hug too!" Watching her brother squeeze into her mother's arms, Elissa wanted to join in the fun as well. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Mommy was too tired last night," said William. He took a look at Mary and added, "Dad will hold you, Elissa."

"Why was Mommy tired last night?" Elissa asked suspiciously.

"Because..." William looked at Mary ambiguously.

Hearing the conversation between the father and the daughter, Mary glared at him, as if telling him she would beat him if he told Elissa something he should not.

"Mommy, where did you go with Dad last night?" Lying in her arms, Alick asked innocently.

"Hmm." The corners of Mary's mouth twitched. "I forgot."

"All right, all right," said Amy with a smile as she saw Mary's flushing face. "Let's go inside first. Your father must be very happy to know that you are now here."

"Let's go!" William then stretched out his hand around Mary's waist gently.

"Let me go!" Mary glared at him, turned around, and walked quickly.

"Wait for me and Elissa!"

They walked into the villa together. When they got inside, they saw Timothy standing in front of a huge square table, and moving his ink freely and intricately. Although Timothy heard their footsteps, he did not raise his head. "Alick and Elissa, come here to see Grandpa's writing. I'll buy two sets of pen, ink, paper, and ink-stone in a few days. You can write with Grandpa together!" he said without stopping.

As soon as he finished speaking, he stopped writing as well. He had written several powerful characters on the paper.

Timothy put down the brush, looked up, and smiled warmly. "It turns out that Mary has come. I was wondering why that little girl, Elissa, didn't make any trouble right now!"

"Trouble." Feeling a little guilty, Mary turned to the little fellows and said, "Apologize to Grandpa. How could you be disobedient when Grandpa is writing?"

"But Grandma said I write better than Grandpa!" Elissa argued.

"Yes, I did. Mary," Amy chimed in with a smile. "Children are just curious. Besides, your father seems unhappy, but in his heart, he wants the two kids to stick to him all the time!"
