Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

360 Father and son’s saga

Jeslyn and Valen glared condescendingly at Rex before Jeslyn got up. “I dare you to touch a hair on my husband’s head… Valen love, let’s go on a date!” She spread out her hands and beamed, waiting for him to run over. 1

A small smile crept onto the corner of Valen’s lips as he slowly walked down the steps. After his leg touched the last step, he dashed towards his mother but before he could fall into her embrace, hesuddenly found himself in the air.

Valen panicked but soon he discovered it was his father who held him up by the collar, suspending him in mid–air.

“Plum, what are you doing?”

“Dad put me down right now!”

“Hahahahahaha… this is interesting!” Rex couldn’t help the drama in the family. He got on a couch and sat properly. He called a maid and demanded popcorn.

Rex wanted to enjoy this!

“Dad, if you don’t put me down, I promise when I grow up, I’ll bully you too!!” Valen promised while struggling to be freed.

Jeslyn sighed and facepalmed. These two, when are they going to grow up?

“Plum, he’s our dear son.” Still, Maverick didn’t let him go.

“Dad, this is embarrassing.”

“So you’re not aware that fighting me over what’s mine is also embarrassing?” Maverick asked with his lip curled.

“How can you be so shameless? By birthright, that’s mine!” Valen argued.
