Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

“Nothing I’m sure… she called the man sugar plum and he called her Candy floss.” Jeslyn frowned. (1 Maverick also knitted his brows because it was getting weirder. “Do you remember what year it was, date, month, Country, and hotel?”

Jeslyn thought for a while. Before her consciousness entered the hotel, her gaze flashed past a light board with the name; “Roller Coaster hotels? In Country Y? That’s weird.” Jeslyn frowned even more with her unreliable memory.

In all her years of living in Country Y, she didn’t recall that such a hotel existed.

“It’s not,” Maverick answered with a heavy tone.

Jeslyn felt his weirdness but decided to ignore it for now. “How did you know such a hotel existed?”

“It was Rex’s. Got destroyed after an incident.”

“Oh, I guess that’s why… but as for the date, it’s-”

“7th of October..” Maverick answered instead.

“That’s right. That year should be 2014” Jeslyn replied.

Maverick remained silent after hearing that. Then a while later, he spoke but his voice was deep like he was in pain. “I’ll find it out for you.”

“Mn,”
