Chapter 88 Good Morning

"Ring, ring, ring..."

It was six o'clock in the morning when the phone kept on the bedside table rang loudly.

"Uh..." Mary groaned, dazed by the alarm. She willed her reluctant hands to come out of the warm quilt and turn off the alarm with her eyes closed. She had mastered this skill.

The family house where she resided was far away from her workplace, so she had to get up early to make sure that she reached on time. This was quite difficult for her.

She was about to get up when she felt a presence on the other side of the bed that had sunken slightly. This was accompanied by a few hoarse coughs.

"Ah!" As the fog of sleepiness faded, Mary came to her senses. She opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling, remembering that William was still sleeping beside her!

"Are you awake?" he almost whispered. She was shocked when William turned over lazily and greeted her. His voice was gruff and husky that made him sound incredibly sexy and magnetic.

"Yes." Mary turned her head, her eyes meeting his. "Good morning."

"Good morning."

"Okay." Mary nodded with a smile. 'How happy it must be for two people to be together when their relationship has turned from love to affection and they know that they will spend the rest of their lives together!' she thought.

She was interrupted by William soon. "In fact," he said, looking at the direction where Aunt Amy had left, "Father already knows that we are not really married."

"What? " Mary dropped the bun into her bowl in fear and disbelief. "Father already knows that? "

"Yes." William nodded.

"Oh, well..." said Mary with her hands trembling. Timothy was engaged in dock business and had many cruel means to deal with people. If he knew that she had colluded with William to cheat on him, wouldn't she be in danger?!

"Don't worry." William frowned, as if he sensed what she was thinking of. "Since he didn't say anything, it means that he is not angry."

"Really? Are you sure?" Mary was still a little scared.

"Yes." William pursed his lips. "You're with me. Even if he wants to harm you, I won't let that happen."
