Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

28 Jeslyn’s dream goddess

Jeslyn stirred awake and stretched while turning on her side. She furrowed her brows as she tapped the soft and fluffy thing she was sleeping on with her eyes still closed.

“When did manufacturing companies make the car seats this fluffy and wide”? She thought.

She slowly opened one eye and saw a white duvet covering her lower body. Her other eye flew open and she immediately sat up to glance around the place she was in.

It was a big room painted nude with gold intricates. The two single chairs placed beside the gold curtains were also gold, and a floor-to-ceiling window separated the balcony from the room with a white long curtain.

Jeslyn couldn’t believe what her eyes were seeing. She blinked and blinked again, still, the images didn’t disappear.

She lowered her eyes to the bed. The large king-size bed with a gold headboard and gold frame was the most prettiest she had seen… and the beautiful chandelier that was lit above her head made her throat go dry.

What about the floor? The fluffy cream foot rug placed under the bed that spread to cover a small space around the bed made Jeslyn forget to close her mouth.
