Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom novel Chapter 330

330 Breaching the agreement 

“You’re lying!” Christine screamed. 1 

“Oh?“Jeslyn raised a brow. “You don’t believe I can get your sister in trouble?” She smiled with her lips sealed and eyes devoid of warmth. “Watch me.” 

She shifted her gaze to Assistant Miles and said nonchalantly; “She has exhausted her usefulness. Take care of her.” 

Jeslyn was about to get up when Assistant Miles immediately cried out; “Please, don’t hurt me, Jeslyn! I promise I’ll be of use to you! That lady on the video, that lady, I can take her place. Please, don’t kill an innocent person, let me take her place. I can be useful to you, please Jeslyn!” 

It took a few seconds for Jeslyn to realize that Assistant Miles was referring to the lady on the video she just played. Assistant Miles wants to be the lady who wore ‘Jeslyn’s‘ face and killed ‘Christine“? “Hahahaha…” Jeslyn cackled up. She was amused at Assistant Miles‘ determination to live. 

“What? You thought I’d sacrifice innocent people just to bring Emilee down? Oh please!” she rolled her eyes. 

“The- then, who-” 

“The whole thing is a charade, it’s staged. So don’t worry about what I do.” She got up and turned to leave. However, getting to the bar gates, Jeslyn paused and ordered. “Send Assistant Miles to rest in peace… that is if she can find peace in the afterlife.” 

“N–no, no, Jeslyn, pleaaaase!! Christine, save me, save me, Christine. Jeslyn, I promise to be better!!…Please….!!!!” 

“Sis- sister, Jeslyn! Please let me out! Forgive me! Please, Jeslyn! I never meant to hurt you! Jeslyn!!!” Fear and anxiety gripped Christine when she saw how the men left behind by Jeslyn were dealing with Assistant Miles. 

“Arghh!!” Assistant Miles roared to the ceiling when her fingernail was forcefully pulled out. 

Christine shivered and the next thing, hot liquid began to gush out from in between her legs. Christine was peeing herself! 

Jeslyn had long walked far from the cell and couldn’t picture what was being done to Assistant Miles but one thing she was clearly aware of is that, Assistant Miles would be tortured so badly that she’d beg to be killed swiftly because the men in charge of punishing her were Code 5’s subordinates. Code 5, Code 6, Code 7, and Lolita are still unconscious after their surgery. Doctor Matt assured her that Lolita and others would be fine but with Code 5 being the one with the most life–threatening injuries, his situation wasn’t looking too promising. 

Out of all of Maverick’s subordinates, aside from Pink, Code 5 is the next person Jeslyn cares for. One of the reasons is that Code 5 is a very handsome man whose aesthetic triggered her protective nature. The second reason is that Maverick holds Code 5 in high esteem, although he never said nor showed. it but as his wife who is gradually understanding everything about her husband, she was about to know that Code 5 means a lot to Maverick. 

“You’re still soft towards your sister?” 

Jeslyn snapped back to reality when she heard Maverick’s voice. Her lips stretched into a faint smile as she slowly walked into his embrace. “It’s quite painful to kill someone you cherish but she has to 

die.” 

Maverick brushed her long hair back and replied; “Your heart is still soft.” 

“No, it’s not softer than yours.” She chuckled. 

“Oh?” Maverick raised a brow and the few men standing along the dark passage couldn’t help but take a quick glance at Jeslyn. 

“Yeah, my evil mother–in–law is still alive after all her atrocities. Why haven’t you killed her if she’s not dear to you?” 

Maverick flattened his lips. “She’s not dear to me but to Rex. He still loves her. My dad loved her too. Moreover, she’s still my mother.” 

Jeslyn sighed. The word mother is a very heavy word. Not all women deserve to be a mother, likewise, not all mothers deserve the MOM title. But still, we can’t dismiss the fact that we were brought into this world by women who went through so much pain and agony for 9 months, and that alone should be respected. 

Jeslyn sighed again. Now she understood why Maverick had been passive regarding his mother even though that witch had tried to ruin his life and Valen’s life multiple times. 

“She’s your mother but not mine. She hurt me a few times already and I’m not intending to let that slide,” she stated. 

Maverick sighed and held her hand, walking her in the direction of the entrance. “Her sins are unforgivable. I don’t want to punish her either, but you can’t kill her.” 

“Mn, I’m not intending to kill my mother–in–law because I’d be mad if you killed anyone from my family even though they’re evil.” she glanced at his side profile. “Can we make her a pauper?” 

“Mn,” he replied. 

“Perfect. It’s been about three to four months since we made a bet. I’ve not seen her make a move yet. What is she waiting for?” 

“She’s cunning. You should be careful.”
