Chapter 127 Jealous (Part Two)

After all, William, I was reckless in trusting you!’

Mary opened her eyes, tears coursing down her flushed cheeks.

"Do you feel miserable? !" William shouted in her face, "Did I mistreat you? !"

Mary bit her lips, trying not to meet his gaze.

"Facing Victor, you were grinning like a Cheshire cat!" He forced her to look at him, pulling her by the chin. He ordered, "Smile! Smile! I want you to smile at me!"

Slap!

The air stilled, as a defeating silence settled in the living room.

William held the side of his stinging face, staring at Mary in disbelief. He couldn't believe he had been hit by her.

Mary’s hand trembled in mid-air, anger welling up inside her. Tears threatened to spill from the corners of her eyes, as she scowled at him. She couldn't even recognize the man in front of her.

"Ding!"

Mary’s phone suddenly pierced through the silence in the room.

William’s eyes accidentally fell on its screen, only to see the message that drove him crazy.

He quickly sat up, grabbing the phone.

"Mary, are you resting? Have a good night. By the way, when the contract is over, I

, that's impossible..." There was no connection between them, it was all just the contract. William started shaking his head, murmuring, "Is it possible?… Did I really fall in love with her?"

"Ring! "

The phone in his pocket rang again.

"Hello?" William rubbed his eyes.

"Have you set off?"

"Yes," William replied, as he hurried towards the elevator. "I'm leaving. I'll be there soon."

"That's good. William, come back quickly!"

"Yes, I will." He stepped into the elevator after hanging up the phone, his face, a mixture of confusion and fear.

"William! William! Let me out!" Inside the bedroom, Mary’s throat burned after screaming for a while. She kept pounding the wooden door, but no response came.

"William... Let me out... "

Her voice frail, Mary fell to the ground. Her whole body felt heavy as she struggled to sit up.

When her gaze fell on the mirror, she couldn't recognize the face staring back.

The left side of her face was swollen, her ear turned red. There were streaks of tears covering her face.

Mary let out a small whimper, as a sharp pain burned in her ears.
