Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

”Oh? ” the new groom smiled faintly.

”Or, you two had been cheating, ” a lady walked over and stood beside Ray as she glared at the new groom.

They could clearly see that the new groom didn look like someone they should mess with but the Zhou siblings didn care because they know all the affluent and power-holding families in the country and they are aware that this man in front of them, despite having the air of a powerful person, was not on the list of those people they should fear.

They knew that the man cannot be a pauper, but refused to believe that he was wealthier than them.

”So what if it is? ” The new groom responded emotionlessly. He glanced one last time at the people that were starting to gather around him before walking towards the door.

”Hey! Stop right there, Im not done with you yet! ” Ray yelled as he ran towards the new groom and was about to yank his black shirt from behind when the new groom turned and avoided his hand. He kicked his leg forward and ruthlessly pushed him back, sending Ray falling into the empty seats.

The friends and family remaining in the hall were alarmed and immediately rushed to Ray to help him up, but Ray pushed them away. He got up and pointed a finger at the new groom.

He Ignored the fact that he was just humiliated in the presence of so many people and said: ”Divorce her, come with me to the magistrate and divorce her, right now!! ” He yelled like a crazy man. He was really going crazy. How dare she do this to him?

The new groom pulled out his phone that was vibrating in his pocket and glanced at the caller before he turned around and walked away without uttering a word to Ray.

The desperate Ray was about to stop him from leaving again when the lady earlier stopped him. ”Ray, calm down, there are other ways to get her to divorce that wild man and marry you. ”

”Sister, how? What other ways? ” Ray couldn wait to get back at Jeslyn for humiliating him so much. ”She will pay for this!! ” He angrily kicked the chair in front of him.

”Calm down, brother, leave it to me, Ill take care of Jeslyn. You shouldn give the reporter outside the hall the wrong impression that you are a violent man. Grandfather, you all should return home. Ill stay behind with Ray to speak with the reporters. ”

”Settle things well. ” The angry grandfather who had been sitting after the Lee family left, stood up and headed out of the hall with the other members of the Zhou family.
