Falling For My Contractual Wife (Brian and Grace) novel Chapter 804

While running, Brian was always on the same line as Grace. He would glance at her as if he had something to say occasionally.

Grace turned a blind eye.

After two laps, Brian went to buy two bottles of water.

Austin drank water and continued running. Grace was about to chase after Austin when Brian grabbed her wrist.

"What are you doing?" Grace turned around and looked at him coldly.

"Are you still angry?" Brian looked at her deeply.

Grace glanced at Austin who had run far away. She was a little worried. She shook him off and chased after Austin.

Brian put down the water bottle and chased after her. As he jogged, he said to her, "Gracey, I thought about it all night last night. The more I thought about it, the happier I became."

Grace glared at him. "Get lost."

"I know you're angry. From your point of view, you've suffered unfair treatment. I gave everything I should have given you to Louise because I recognized the wrong person.

"But later on, I thought that perhaps God wanted us to experience these tribulations as a test for us. Look, even if I recognized the wrong person, after going around in circles, we still got together. Don't you think God had arranged it deliberately?"

Grace glared at him again. "Don't be glib in front of me."

"Gracey, I was wrong. I promise to be at your disposal for the rest of my life. I'll do whatever you ask me to do. Okay?"

Grace slowed down. After taking two steps, she turned to look at him. "Alright, I'll let you do one thing now. Don't follow me."

Brian was speechless.

Sure enough, he stopped.

Grace caught up with Austin. After running two more laps, she went to the stairs to rest.

Brian walked toward the mother and daughter and squatted down to look at Grace. "Are you still angry?"

Grace turned her head away and tidied her hair, ignoring him.

Austin looked at her mother, then her father with big eyes.

So, when she woke up this morning, she was not so angry anymore. When she saw Brian cooking in the kitchen, and the place under his eyes had turned greenish-black from staying up late, her last bit of anger was gone.

However, she had always been domineering and refused to forgive him so quickly.

Brian could tell what she was thinking and tried to please her even more.

*****

On Monday.

There was an urgent knock on the door. Vivian walked into the office. "Grace, Mr. Casper is here."

Grace raised her head. There was a hint of heaviness in her indifferent expression.

"He's waiting for you in the conference room," said Vivian.

Grace nodded. "I'll be right there."
