Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

424 Maverick’s plan

Nancy stayed silent for a while. “You’re right. Maybe I shouldn’t have married him but rather tortured him… maybe I shouldn’t have made an enemy out of Alex,” She mumbled inaudibly. 1

Every intelligent person always has a flaw. Maybe this is her price to pay for being too smart, she sighed softly.

“I’ll send out men to take care of Ani on your behalf. After that, you won’t demand revenge from my men. They followed my orders to torture Alex, so I’ll take the responsibility.”

Jeslyn looked at Nightcrawler who had his head down before she replied, “Fine… before I leave, can you tell me one last thing?” when she saw that Nancy’s attention was on her, she continued, “Your sickness, what is it about?”

“Why do you want to know? I don’t need your pity.”

“Who cares about that? I just want to know when I should prepare a funeral dress. I want to appear as the most gorgeous guest to send you off…”

“Miss! That’s disrespectful!” Nightcrawler frowned.

Nancy raised her hand, “An honest enemy is better than a pretentious friend. Jeslyn is not wrong… You should take care of your health, otherwise, you will turn out like me.”

Jeslyn frowned, “What do you mean?“.

Jeslyn bolted up, “Y–you- that was the effect of ATOM?!” She panicked. The way she met Nancy earlier is not something she would want to experience. Not now, not ever?!
