Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

That was the second time he asked her for the reason Mulan raised her hand to slap his wife and he still hasn’t gotten an answer.

Mulan swallowed. She knew him too well to grasp the meaning behind his question.

“I- I’m sorry,” Mulan stuttered.

What reason could she have other than anger and jealousy? She couldn’t tell Maverick it was because she was angry or jealous, right?

Maverick didn’t say anything else but only turned his head to his men who were trailing behind him.

Number 2 immediately stepped out from the line of guards behind Maverick and started to walk towards Mulan.

Mulan suddenly had a weird feeling crawling towards her heart. Maverick hasn’t said anything other than those two words, but she could already feel the heat on her back.

With that said, Maverick glanced at Jeslyn who had a beam on her face, and walked away, towards his
