Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

194 Visiting Madam Caroline.

“Wh- what are you saying?” Jeslyn’s lips quivered. What son? How is that possible?! She’ll be glad to be Valen’s real mother but certainly not by playing such a joke on her. 1

Maverick couldn’t talk much, so he glanced at Rex who sighed before opening the can of worms. Even after the whole story from how she slept with Maverick to how she got into a coma was revealed, Jeslyn still couldn’t believe It.

Yes, she has a memory of how she got pregnant and how she gave birth. But isn’t that just another realistic nightmare like every other day?

“Hold on, let’s assume there’s truth in what you’re saying. Why don’t I have any recollection? In that dream, I gave birth to a girl and not a boy… Maverick, I don’t understand anything. Please, don’t tell me it’s true.” Large teardrops fell on her cheeks.

Valen was offended and heartbroken. He had been praying for Jeslyn to be his mother. Now that it turned out she was, she didn’t want to accept him?

“Mummy, don’t you want me?” For the first time in his life, Valen sounded pitiful. It shocked Rex so much that he thought for a second that Valen was switched.
