Falling for My Contractual Wife

When Carson called, he was met with Grace's anger. He felt guilty. "I admit that I want to matchmake you and Justin, but I'm doing this for your lifelong happiness. You want Austin to have a father figure, right?" Grace was speechless for a while. Til give Austin a father figure, but it can't be Justin."

"I don't get it. What's wrong with Justin? What part of him make you so unhappy?" Carson expressed his confusion.

Grace immediately hung up, and Carson closed his eyes in frustration. In Carson's eyes, Justin was an outstanding person who could satisfy Grace in every way. It was precisely because of this that Carson wanted them to be together. In addition, Justin would never hurt Grace.

But on the contrary, Grace had been in The Francis family for three years. She knew public image was a primary need for upper-class people. So, if she decided to date Justin, she would make him a laughingstock of the entire upper-class circle.

After a while, Carson tried to call Grace again. This time, he tactfully didn't mention Justin. "Alright, I was wrong. Could you send me your address? I need to talk to you face to face."

Only then did Grace send her new address to him. Carson went over to help her tidy up her new place and sighed. "I'm worried about you living so far away alone. Why can't I stay with you!"

"No. As you can see. I live in a flat. Where are you going to sleep?

T'll sleep in the living room. There, problem solved!"

Grace didn't try to talk him out of it. Besides, Carson had been living with her for quite some time. He might not be used to being alone all of a sudden.

Just as Carson and Grace finished unpacking, a call from Daisy came in. Seeing the caller's name, Carson said calmly, "Don't, worry, let me answer her."

Grace nodded and returned to her room. Meanwhile, as Carson answered the phone, he heard Daisy's sharp voice. "Why did you take so long to answer the phone? Where's my money? It's been a few days. Can't you come up with the money right away?" "Mom, it's me."

Daisy was stunned. "Carson?"

Upon hearing his voice, Daisy felt inexplicably guilty. However, she realized it might be her only chance to ask Grace for the money. So, the guilt in her heart disappeared almost instantly. She shamelessly asked, "Where's Grace? I need her on the phone!" Carson tried to be as patient as possible. "Mom, you've plundered enough money from her over the years, right? Didn't she give you enough money while living with The Francis family?"

"What do you know? She's not your biological sister at all, and you're still siding with her? Whose son are you? If it weren't for me, she would've died from starvation long ago!"

"I've known about that for a long time, but ask yourself, did you treat her as your daughter after adopting her? In junior high, Grace had to do multiple jobs to support herself, and she seldom used your or dad's money. Even if she did use your money, she should've sent more than enough to return the favor. She owes you nothing!"NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Daisy was furious. "What spell did she cast on you? How dare you speak up for her. Forget it, I won't talk to you about this anymore. Tell her that if she can't give me the money as agreed, I'll tell Brian her address immediately!"

After a brief silence, Daisy added smugly. "You need to know, I didn't tell Brian immediately because of my mother-

daughter relationship with Grace. Besides, if I revealed her whereabouts to Brian, what's in it for me?

"You're being unreasonable! If you do this, don't blame me for culting ties with you and Dad Carson was furious, and Daisy was shocked. Just as she was about to curse, Carson had already hung up.
