Falling for My Contractual Wife

Chapter 180

Everyone happily gathered around the table to eat. Only Brian sat silently at the side and watched them coldly.

Since Brian did not join the group, Ava dared not go over to join them to eat. Even if she was drooling from looking at the food, she could only watch regrettably from the side.

Justin looked at Brian and put on a fake smile. “Mr. Francis, aren’t you coming over to join us?”

Before Brian could speak. Justin said, “Oh, I’m sorry. You must be having lunch with Miss Adkins next to you. Sorry for disturbing the two of you.”

Brian’s face turned dark as he said, “Dr. Vance, please refrain from slandering me. I have a fiancée, but she’s studying abroad now. Miss Adkins is my personal secretary. Dr. Vance, please be careful with your words in the future.”

Brian’s words made Ava’s face turn pale.

She did not dare to look Grace in the eyes. Two days ago, she had flaunted in front of Grace that she was now Brian’s girlfriend. In the end, Brian had personally clarified their relationship today.

However, with so many people present, Ava could only endure her embarrassment and stand there with a smile.

Grace was busy eating. She did not even look at Brian. To her, his explanation sounded more like he was himself.

Justin smiled brightly. “Really? I’m sorry, then. It seems that I’ve misunderstood. Mr. Francis, if you don’t mind. would you like to come and join us?”

Brian snorted. Tm afraid I won’t be able to enjoy Dr. Vance’s loving meal.”

With that, he stood up and strode away.

Justin had a two–day break, and he spent both days accompanying Grace on set.

The more Brian saw how close Justin and Grace were, the more unhappy he felt. The filming time at night felt longer and longer.

On the day Justin was about to leave, Nancy came.

Nancy was wearing a slim–fitting dress and a sunhat. When she saw Grace, she ran over and hugged her, not forgetting to avoid pressing against her stomach carefully.

Grace introduced Justin to Nancy. Nancy sized up Justin while drinking coffee. Then, she turned to glance at Brian.

The atmosphere was awkward.

Nancy’s eyes twinkled as if she was scheming something. She looked at Grace and said loudly, “Dr. Vance is really compatible with you.”

Grace hurriedly covered Nancy’s mouth. “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Justin enjoyed Nancy’s compliment very much. He looked at Grace and smiled gently. He looked as though he had stepped out a beautiful painting.

Chapter 180

In the afternoon, Justin set off for Capern City

Before he left, he told Nancy, “I’ll leave Grace to you.”

Nancy raised her eyebrows at him. “Don’t worry. With me around, no one will bully Grace”

Brian stared blankly at the document on his computer screen and did not manage to read a single word. He then stood up and left in frustration.

At night, it was still a day of overtime filming. Nancy was worried for Grace. “How are you holding up? It’s already 11 pm. By the time you return to the hotel and shower, it’ll be 1a.m.

Grace shook her head and comforted Nancy, saying, “I’m fine.”

After Grace returned to the hotel and took a shower, she turned on her tablet to draw. It was already two in the morning when she uploaded her work. She yawned and fell asleep on the table. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

The next day. Grace was sleep–deprived and went to the set with dark circles under her eyes.

Brian didn’t come to the set, and Ava wasn’t there either.
