Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom novel Chapter 337

337 Pink’s suspicion- ugly days ahead 

A smile settled on Jeslyn’s lips as she watched the brother and sister bonding. It was an interesting sight. Her mind jolted to her twin brother. 

Would he be like Maverick? Would they bond? Would he even care about me? Will I become another Piper who would beg for years to be united with him? 

Jeslyn sighed as those thoughts ran through her mind. ‘Twin brother, hope you’re fine?” 

“Is their unity so heart–touching?” 

Jeslyn turned to stare at Brian who was smiling as he gazed at her with love and care in his hazel eyes. 

“You were talking to me?” Jeslyn asked. 

“Of course, you are crying and I was wondering if the scene of their bonding is so emotional.” He said while pulling out a white handkerchief from his chest pocket. He didn’t hand it to her but stretched his hand to wipe the tears from her cheeks as they both smiled. 

That scene didn’t escape Maverick’s hawk eyes, nor did it pass Pink who was staring at them from a distance. She couldn’t see Brian properly but was quite surprised to see another man seducing Piper in front of Maverick without him doing anything. ‘ 

‘What is going on?‘ She thought. 

After wiping her tears, Brian was about to drop his hand when his phone rang. He pulled it out and it was his Manager calling. He answered the call and after a few seconds, his aura changed and his face downcasted. 

“I understand,” he replied before putting his phone away. He forced a smile at Jeslyn before brushing her hair out of her face. 

“I’m leaving, I brought Piper here so I could wish you a farewell.” 

Jeslyn’s heart dropped and she quickly grabbed his hand in panic. “Wh- where are you going?” 

Brian chuckled at the panic on Jeslyn’s face. “I’m only returning home for some time, I’m not dying.” He laughed and ruffled her hair. 

“Oh, that’s a relief. When are you coming back?” she asked. 

“That, I’m not sure.” his gaze shifted to Piper, only to see that Maverick and Piper had been staring at him and the oblivion Jeslyn. 

He ignored them and focused on Jeslyn. He didn’t know why he loved Jeslyn so much, yet it wasn’t a romantic kind of love. From the first day he saw her on the TV in an audition, that was when he 

started liking her. 

From the onset, he knew his feelings for Jeslyn weren’t like what he felt for Piper, so he just concluded that he has a soft spot for Jeslyn because she was similar to him in many ways. Also, if he had a sister, he would have wanted her to be like Jeslyn. 

Brian shared a farewell hug with Jeslyn and Piper before leaving in his car. 

He was supposed to have been on his private jet by now, but because he remembered that he hadn’t 

wished Jeslyn farewell, he had to shift the time of his flight after his exercise with Piper at the hospital. 

As Brian was walking back to his car, Pink saw his full view and a small smile swept past her lips. Her heart, which was filled with curiosity a while ago, suddenly found tranquility. The feeling she had for the celebrity she never cared to give a second glance before, suddenly felt like what she felt for Jeslyn. 

It was strange, but she loved it. 1

Pink prayed for the young man to look her way if just once so she could get a full view of his undoubtedly handsome face but he didn’t. 

She watched with disappointment as the car sped out of the compound before she gathered herself. That was weird, she thought. 

Without wasting any more time, she went into the house to use her computer. She wasn’t the type to have feelings for people but from what she observed and witnessed, that guy has to be investigated! 

Meanwhile, Piper didn’t go back to her mother after she left the hospital. In those few days, she was at Maverick’s house trying to create a relationship with Valen to no avail. 

Although Maverick was still cold like he used to be, he always came to check up on her almost every night. Somehow, she felt it was Jeslyn’s doing but she was happy that he came. 

Madam Caroline was angry at Piper for ruining her plans but after she got to know that Piper has united with her brothers, the woman felt excited, thinking her days of being the richest woman in the world were here again but if only she knew what Jeslyn has in store for her. 

On this day, Young Master Wu barged into the Yu cooperation to see Emilee but was stopped by security at the gate. 

“I want to see your boss!” He screamed in frustration for the umpteenth time. 

“You’re not allowed to go in.” The head of the security guards said without an iota of respect.
