Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

182 I want your life

“Thank you for the information, I owe you one.” Alex got up to leave. (1)

“Hehe…” Diana chuckled. “You don’t owe me just one favor, Alex. I can’t count how many times I’ve helped you, so if you want to pay me back, you’ll have to pay all the favors you owe me.”

Alex took a deep breath. “What do you want in return?”

Diana looked at her for a while before she turned her eyes to the wine in her hand and took a sip. “Everything you took from me… but you can’t return them, so… I want your life.” She enunciated slowly.

Alex stayed silent for a long time with her gaze on Diana. Seeing that she didn’t look like she was joking, Alex nodded. “That’s fair, but give me some months to set things right for my daughter and her family.” With that said, she walked out through the door.

After Alex left, Diana threw the glass of wine to the wall in front of her in a fit of rage. “She’ll rather die than explain herself or sincerely beg for forgiveness!”

Alex did a lot of bad things when they were friends, yet she wouldn’t explain or clear the air no matter what they said and how much they insulted her. They were best of friends, yet she knew almost nothing about Alex. It makes her feel that Alex doesn’t trust her. It hurts her feelings!

While she was trying to calm her raging heart, her phone rang. She answered the call and put it on speaker. A sweet voice of a lady drifted from the other end.
