Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

Chapter 388

Jeslyn returned him from seeing Lolita, yet her husband wasn’t back. Worried, she went in search of Rex and finally found him in the laboratory. 1

“You unreliable f*ck! Why haven’t you been answering my calls-!” Jeslyn immediately interrogated the minute she forcefully pushed the door open.

She held back her tongue after seeing the person in the ward… Celestine was sitting beside the gloomy Rex.

“Sister–in–law, you’re here.” Rex said, trying to forge a smile.

Jeslyn glared at him but still walked into the room. “Teacher,” she bowed slightly.

“No way! I won’t forgive you for lying to me!”
