Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

201 Gracious and generous Mother–in–law

“More than enough to buy your worthless life.” Jeslyn’s voice sounded and she smiled. “Christine…” she shook her head. “That identity was given to you by my mother, so you have to change it. All your certificates, the knowledge you have, and everything you own, including your glowing skin, were given by my mother, so you are going to return everything when I finally have your time. However, fo now…” she patted Christine’s face. “I’m lending them to you. When I come for them, it will seem like a dream.” She smiled, washed her hands, cleaned her wet hands on Christine’s expensive white gown, turned around, and walked out. Leaving Christine in a daze. 1

Christine lost her breath for a long time. She stood there frozen like a chicken. Soon, she gasped from holding her breath for too long. That was scary! Jeslyn gave her the feeling of a grim reaper and the way she said those threats, it didn’t seem like she was joking at all. Christine felt a chill run down her spine. Even her arms were producing goosebumps.

“Jeslyn is different now.” She mumbled to herself. She has to talk to her sister about this as soon as possible!

The next day, Jeslyn bought flowers and went to the hospital to visit her generous mother–in–law.

The hospital was very large and beautiful. They said it was one of the Xu family’s establishments, making Jeslyn wonder whether the three families were competing to own the same thing.

Maverick has a hospital, the Yu family has a hospital, and also the Xu family.

Jeslyn entered the hospital with some guards. One of the guards walked to the counter and asked for the ward Madam Caroline was in. Getting his answer, he returned and told Jeslyn.

Jeslyn took the elevator and got to the ward in no time.

Of course, it was a VIP room on the topmost floor. There were guards stationed outside the door. However, when Madam Caroline’s guards saw that the people coming were Maverick’s guards and a woman they didn’t know, one of them immediately went in to inform Madam Caroline.

Soon, he came back out and allowed them in.

The room didn’t disappoint the exterior of the hospital. It was a sight to behold. Jeslyn placed the flowers inside a flower vase sitting close to the window before she went over to sit gracefully on a sofa with her legs crossed.

She slowly removed her mask and beamed at the woman staring at her.

“You… What are you doing here?” Madam Caroline narrowed her eyes.

“Gracious mother–in–law, this daughter–in–law is here to thank you for your generosity.”

“What do you mean?” She knitted her brows.

“Oh, you’ve done a lot of good deeds that you don’t know which one I’m thanking you for.” Jeslyn nodded. “It’s understandable.” She said sarcastically.
