Falling for My Contractual Wife

Grace opened her mouth forcefully and ate a spoonful of porridge.

After eating a few mouthfuls of porridge, she finally felt that she had regained some strength.

Louise was so angry that her eyes were red. She walked into the room and asked in a concerned tone, “Grace, what’s wrong? Can’t you eat?”

Grace looked up at Louise. She gulped before calling out, “Miss Adkins.”

Louise sneered in her heart. She thought, “What a bitch! She’s definitely pretending!”

She only skipped two meals, but she pretended to be so weak and tried to gain sympathy from Brian!

Louise snatched the bowl from Brian’s hand and said, “Brian, let me feed her instead.”

Brian looked up at her and nodded slightly. He stood up and moved aside.

Louise sat on the bed with a smile and fed Grace the hottest spoonful at the bottom of the bowl.

She then asked her with concern, “Weren’t you fine when I went to see you today? What’s wrong? I haven’t seen you for just

a little over ten hours. Why are you not able to get up from the bed? Is your body so weak?”

Louise’s words implied something. Her eyes were fixed on Grace.

Grace felt a little uncomfortable. When she saw the porridge by her mouth, she opened her mouth.

It was hot!

It was so hot that her tears flowed out, but she still swallowed the porridge.

Louise gripped the spoon tightly, wishing she could dunk the entire bowl of hot porridge into Grace’s mouth.

“Miss Adkins, I can do it myself.”

Louise smiled and refused, “How can that do? You’re weak now so I should feed you.”

Grace’s heart sank.

At this moment, Brian instructed Melvin, “Melvin, bring the two plates of food from the wine cellar over.”

Melvin did not understand, but he still said “yes” and went to the wine cellar to bring the food. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

After searching for a while, he finally found the food on the patio.

Melvin brought the two plates back and placed them on the table.

Brian looked around the room and frowned slightly. “Where’s Ava? Ask her to come here!”

When Louise heard Brian’s words, she took a deep breath. As she expected, his first suspect was indeed Ava.

Ava was sleeping when Melvin woke her up.

She cursed as she came downstairs. When she saw the scene in the living room, she was shocked.

Her footsteps were a little stiff. As she went downstairs, she asked, “Bri… Brian, what’s going on?”

Brian waited for her to walk into the living room before asking, “Who sent Grace Sherman lunch today?”

A female maid stood up with a trembling body and admitted, “It’s… it’s me, Mr… Mr. Brian.”

“Were you the one who sent the food tonight as well?”

“Yes, yes… It’s me, but I really don’t know why the food is like this. When I… sent it over, it was clearly good… It wasn’t spoilt.”

Brian’s cold gaze swept across the room and finally landed on Ava’s face.

Ava was so scared that her heart skipped a beat. “Bri… Brian, it wasn’t me. I don’t know. I don’t know anything about this!”

“You’re the only one who keeps causing trouble all the time. Who else would do this except you?” Brian asked her coldly.

“I, I really didn’t. I don’t even know what happened. You, you bitch! Why did you frame me?”

Ava could not find any evidence to clear her name, so she vented her anger on the maid.

The maid was on the verge of tears as she quickly denied, “Mr. Brian, it really wasn’t me.”
