Falling for My Contractual Wife

Grace got out of the car and quickly walked into the villa with the box. She immediately locked the door.

After locking the door, she immediately locked all the windows. She even locked the windows on the second floor tightly.

When she was done, she sat on the sofa, breathing heavily.

The new house was empty and quiet. At this moment, Grace was extremely nervous. Even the slightest movement was able to alarm her.

She walked slowly to the balcony.

The black car was parked by the roadside not far away. The window was closed, and Grace could not see if the person inside had come out.

She took out her phone and took a photo before sending it to Nancy.

[It’s this car. I’m not 100% sure that he’s the person who robbed me that day, so don’t call the police for the time being. Be careful when you come over.]

After sending this message, Grace walked back to the living room to put away the bag of bamboo charcoal that was used for formalin removal. When Grace walked to the living balcony outside the kitchen, she suddenly saw the scar–faced man at the entrance of the first floor!

He was pushing the door open. When he realized that he could not push it open, he ran to look at the doors and windows elsewhere.

Realizing that all the doors and windows were locked, he raised his head and looked upstairs. Grace was so frightened that she quickly hid behind the pillar.

Her heart was pounding. She stuck her neck out to take a look. The scar–faced man was obviously unwilling to give up. He walked to the other side of the villa and checked around to see if there was anywhere he could climb into the villa.

At this moment, Nancy’s car drove in. Grace hurriedly gave her a call and asked her to stop by the side and not to do anything. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Nancy sat in the car and watched the man walk around the villa. Nancy was so nervous that her heart was about to jump

out of her chest.

Tinley Hills was a high–class villa area. In terms of safety, it was still relatively reassuring, unless the scar–faced man broke through the window. However, the man did not have the guts to do so in broad daylight.

The scar–faced man looked around and realized that he could not enter the villa. He suddenly realized that something was

wrong.

“Even if she has the habit of closing the door behind her, it’s impossible for her to lock all the doors and windows. The only possibility is if she had discovered him! Perhaps there will even be police officers arriving later, the scar–faced man thought.

Thinking of this possibility, the scar–faced man looked around vigilantly. He pulled on his mask and quickly walked back to his car before driving away.

Grace heaved a sigh of relief. She supported herself against the wall and went downstairs to open the door.

Nancy hurried over to support her weight. “Grace!

Vare you?”

Grace felt unsafe and waved her hand. “I’m fine. Let’s go back to the car quickly.”

“Alright!” Nancy nodded heavily.

Grace sat in the car and felt weak all over. She didn’t dare to imagine that if Brian hadn’t come to pick her up yesterday, she wouldn’t have discovered Louise’s secret.

Then today…maybe I won’t even live to see another day, Grace thought.

Nancy held Grace’s hand. “Oh my god, your hand is so cold.”

Nancy took a piece of clothing from the backseat and draped it over Grace. “I’ll get you some water.”

Nancy poured a cup for Grace from her thermos. “Drink slowly. Be careful not to burn yourself.”

Grace drank some hot water and gradually came back to her senses.

“We should have called the police just now. There’s definitely something wrong with that man! Grace, did you see him clearly? Is he really the person who robbed you that day? They’re hooligans from Jacksonville. Why did he come to Capern City? Is he here for you?”

Nancy w

was anxious and confused, asking a lot of questions.

Grace massaged her temples. “This matter can’t be explained clearly at the moment. In short, I am their target.”
