Contract Marriage: My Sweet Bossy Wife

Jessica and Lorenzo looked at each other in the eyes. Lorenzo's eyes were as serene as water. He didn't say anything, which only made Jessica more nervous.

"Thank you so much for helping me."

Jessica lowered her head and murmured.

"You've already thanked me verbally twice tonight. Is that all you can do?"

Jessica acted like a child who had made mistakes. She was so afraid of being reprimanded by her parents, so she tried to be as invisible as she could. Seeing that, Lorenzo arched his lips, but his eyes remained as cold as ever.

Jessica didn't know what to do. She could only stand there, frozen.

"What are you doing?"

Lorenzo's slender fingers with beautiful knuckles fell on Jessica's torn clothes. Jessica Grabbed his big hand hurriedly, trying to stop him. Lorenzo could see apparent panic and vigilance in her eyes.

"I'm not going to do anything to you... Or do you want to bond a 'deeper' connection with me?"

Lorenzo scoffed with a smile. Then he snorted and quickly helped Jessica to tidy up her disheveled clothes.

"I... Can I go to see Rosa in the hospital?"

Jessica tentatively opened her mouth and asked. She almost failed in every argument with Lorenzo. Moreover, Lorenzo didn't seem in a very good mood now. If he really picked on her now, Jessica would be so embarrassed. She might find a way to run and never want to see Lorenzo again.

As Lorenzo's handsome face kept getting closer to her, she had to lean back until there was no more space. Her face blushed like an apple.

"You'll see her very soon."

Jessica felt so embarrassed because she was sitting on his lap in front of so many people. He held Jessica tightly in his arms, but Jessica silently tried to get out of his cuddle.

However, Lorenzo refused to let her go. He held her tighter and looked at her, warning her not to move around in his arms. Then he raised his hand and flicked her smooth forehead playfully as a bit of punishment.

Jessica raised her hand to cover her forehead. She then pouted. As unhappy as she was, she wouldn't dare to confront Lorenzo.

There was a lot of traffic outside the car window. The lively sense caught Jessica's attention. She wanted to look out, only to see the reflection of Lorenzo's handsome face on the window glass. It looked vague, yet she was deeply attracted and lost in her thoughts.

"Have you ever listened to me at least once?"

Lorenzo had withdrawn into sullen silence. He had no way to vent his anger and could only pull on his tie.

"It was my fault that I didn't tell you what I would do, and the way I'm doing this can be very dangerous... But our marriage was no more than a contract, which means we're not a real couple. I shouldn't bother you with everything."

After what happened on the interactive program last time, Jessica didn't want to beat around the bush with him anymore. She decided to make things clear with him, so that they wouldn't have any misunderstandings.
