Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

Chapter 8

”Ah, take it easy bro, thats a life we are talking about, ” Rex smiled.

”Should have known better than to jump into the road when the cars are moving. ” He said with zero feelings.

Rex sighed. He turned to the driver and asked: ”Man, why aren you moving? ”

”Young master, the crazy woman is banging on the window. ” The driver reported.

”Then give her a few seconds, ” Rex said while looking at his brother and sighed in relief when he said nothing.

The driver wound down the glass to ask what the problem was when the womans pitiful voice spoke.

”Please sir, can you give me a lift? Im heading to the Rose Cemetery. ”

”Sorry maam, we are heading to the airport, ” Rex answered. He wanted to yell at her, but that pain-filled voice pulled at his heart string.

”Let her in. ”

”Huh? ” Rex asked in confusion.

”… ” The driver was lost.

”Brother, you… ”

”Let her into the car. You got a problem with that? ” He raised his brow at Rex.

”N–no, no, of course, not. Hehehe… ” Rex laughed sheepishly.

”Thank you, ” Jeslyn got into the front passenger seat with her hair looking like a birds nest with her face looking pale like a sick person. She looked nothing like the infamous celebrity many people knew in Rose City.

”Hmm, ” he answered her, leaving Rex in bewilderment. This is interesting, he thought.

She was supposed to look back at the people behind, but due to how desperate to get to the funeral she was, coupled with the confusion and disbelief she was in regarding everything that has been happening since her wedding day, she didn care to look.

After a while, the car became silent, too silent for Rexs liking so he decided to scroll over the entertainment news. He loves gossip and loves to make some if there was none, so the minute he saw the glaring headline of a popular singer in Rose city trending, he couldn help but laugh out loud.

”Wow, this is by far the most interesting trouble this sensational celebrity has caused ever since her debut. She abandoned her 5 years fiance for her cheating partner at the altar and married another, then killed her grandfather because he was disappointed in her for ruining the familys name and destroying her innocent fiances life.
