Mr. Conrad Proposes to His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 1222

Late at night, there was no groom in the large wedding room.

The bride was the only one sitting by the bed.

When the clock pointed to twelve, Ava May's tense nerves finally relaxed, slowly exhaled a breath.

Looks like he shouldn't be coming tonight.

However, just as Ava gets up, ready to go to the shower and go to bed, the bedroom door is opened.

Horace Jason stood in the doorway and froze when he saw her, "Are you still awake."

Ava instantly looked a little frazzled up: "Just about to go to sleep ......"

Horace loosened his tie with one hand, closed the door and walked in: "You sleep, I'll take the couch."

Ava sat back down on the bed, her hands clasped together as if she wanted to say something but didn't know how to speak.

Time long so minute by minute, the whole house, are filled with a faint smell of alcohol.

Horace leaned back in the sofa, his eyes slightly dozed, and he didn't know if he was asleep.

After a long time, Ava finally gathered the courage to go to him, pick up the thin blanket next to him and cover him with it.

Just as she turned around with the kettle on the coffee table again, ready to go downstairs to pour some water, her wrist was suddenly choked.

Ava turned around in surprise.

Horace opened his eyes at some point, and his voice took on a bit of a drunken hoarseness: "My mom is outside."

Ava understood what he meant and responded dryly, putting the kettle down again.

Horace let go of her hand, "It's quite late, you go to bed."

Ava nodded gently and walked over towards the bed.

Turning off the lights and lying in bed, she kept her eyes open and couldn't sleep.

Can't help but, think of something messy.

Her father's company has encountered a lot of problems in the past two years, has been thinking of various ways to solve, and then somehow, hitched Horace this line, originally her father wanted her sister to marry Horace.

But for some reason, the night she waited for the engagement to come down, her father told her that she could start preparing for the wedding.

This also made her sister, who already did not like her, see her as a thorn in her side.

Ava actually knows very well that Horace also did not marry because he liked her, but because of his mother.

His mother is sick and her greatest wish is to see him get married and start a family.

So they are actually just taking what they want, a contract marriage that ends when it expires.

Before the wedding, Horace made it very clear to her that she could refuse if she didn't want to.

But Ava also wanted to escape from that home, so she agreed without even thinking about it.

They are like two people who have no choice and are forced to make a choice to come together.

This night, Ava did not sleep much, she could not ignore, sleeping on the sofa of the man.

That too, her husband for the next three years.

The feeling is subtle and indescribable.

The next morning, when she woke up in a daze, she was alone in the room.
