Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom novel Chapter 96

96 Brazen Jeslyn 

“Find out where Damien was sent to.” 1 

“Ahhhh!! Impossible! Brother, I refuse! I’m not going! Either you change my mission or you kill me-” 

“Deal.” 

“D-deal? What deal?” Rex stuttered, 

Maverick curled his lips and said nothing. He was about to walk away when Rex stood in front of him and spread his hands. “If you don’t answer me, you are going no-” 

Maverick stretched his hand and slapped Rex’s hand away before he walked past him. 

Rex laughed mockingly at himself. Why did he mess with his wicked brother? If he truly didn’t carry out the mission, Maverick wouldn’t kill him, that’s for sure. 

However, Maverick would instead give him a tougher mission. What if his brother asks him to go find out where those people’ hold their meeting?! 

Thinking of that, Rex’s eyes sharpened and he immediately ran after Maverick’s silhouette while screaming. “I accept the mission!” 

That evening, Jeslyn graced the kitchen to make something for everyone. She was told that Maverick and Rex came along with Valen but she hadn’t seen them because they left for some work. 

A few days in… 

When the going was sweet, 

You get me in the mood. 

Even though I was down… 

Your love was addicting 

Till I lost myself in your charming eyes… 

Yeah… baby yeah… 

The night is long and I need you 

Yeah… baby yeah… 

The night is cold and I want you. 

A few years later 

It’s the cold season 

When I touch you 

You point at the blanket 

And tell me it’s enough 

I got things to say

but my blanket is enough.. 

Jeslyn felt something crawling on her stomach. She froze and before she could scream, her back hit a hard surface. Her nose picked the soft smell of musk, nature, and wood, a scent she was familiar with. 

“F*ck! 

She let out the words subconsciously. He scared the sh it out of her. 

Turning around with a cooking spoon in hand, she wrapped her arms around his neck, and without him asking or making any attempt to do anything, she leaned in and kissed him. He didn’t respond to her kiss however, she didn’t feel awkward. 

Even though his lips were sealed, Jeskyn continued to push her luck. She could feel his eyes boring ho les in her face, but she couldn’t care less. 

With the tip of her tongue, she outlines the edges of his lips. She felt his lips move but didn’t open up. so she smiled. Getting a reaction meant she was doing good.
