Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

163 I’m not lying

“Ms. Rossa, are you into a relationship?” He asked.

“Don’t care about my personal life too much.” Jeslyn replied.

Mr. Stanley spun her around but before he could grab her, someone else did.

“I would like a dance with this elegant lady,” Judge said with a half smile. Stanley wanted to protest but when he saw Celestine shake her head, he left his dance partner and took another. After all, the dance floor was filled with people and the moment the guys spun the girls around, dancing partners could be exchanged.

Jeslyn also wanted to protest but somehow, she caught sight of Maverick sitting at a dark corner. He seemed to have been watching her.

So, he’s stalking me now?

Jeslyn didn’t say anything and directly placed a hand on Judge’s shoulder as a form of acceptance. Judge wrapped a hand around her waist and held her other hand with his left hand, then they started to dance to the cool music.

“I’m Judge, what’s your name, pretty?”

“Not important,” Jeslyn responded.

“It is important. But don’t worry, you’ll tell me in a while.”

Jeslyn rolled her eyes and they continued to dance slowly. Soon, the music changed to something more seductive and provocative.

Jeslyn, Celestine, Lolita, and Ruben, plus the clients and a few other people on the dance floor frowned at the changed music. Something was wrong. They were also dancing, so they stopped and turned to look around. Only Jeslyn and Judge were still dancing.
