Love Contract
Chapter 105 I Like Her (Part Two)

It didn't take them long to reach Kylin International.

On the 20th floor of Kylin International...

It took a long time for Mary to pick the most refreshing dress, a short, yellow gauze dress.

It was the only gift that William had bought her.

William! She shook her head, trying to remove his name from her mind, and changed into the yellow dress.

The car had barely come to a halt before William dashed out and upstairs, as if he was afraid that something would happen if he was even a little late.

Click!

Mary opened the door and was about to step forward, when she looked up to replace William standing there.

Their eyes met and they held each other's gazes for a long time without saying anything.

Mary recovered soon enough and decided to pretend as if she hadn't seen him. She pulled the door shut and made to walk past him. "Wait!'1

William grabbed her arm.

"Where are you going?" he asked, his voice still serious.

"Out."

"Where are you going?" William asked again, his tone more serious than before as he tightened his grip on Mary's arm.

Mary had put on makeup, her eyes glittering and lips full. Her hair was curly and it fell stunningly on the yellow dress and thin coat that she was wearing. She was really beautiful. William suddenly became worried. Was she going to see another man?

"It's none of your business," Mary said coldly, struggling to escape from his grip. "Let go of me!"

"You..."

William started but his phone started ringing. He frowned and let go of Mary to get the phone.

"What?" William barked into the phone.

"Boss," Kevin was startled, but recovered quickly and said, "Mr. Chen is leaving. You'd better get back to the company as soon as possible."

Mary took advantage of William's preoccupation with his phone. She rubbed her arms as she quickly ran to the elevator.

"Okay, I'll be right there." William hung up and turned around, only to replace the elevator making its way down.

"Mary!"

William shouted angrily and chased after her.

Mary went downstairs and straight to Jane's car. The car had just turned out of the community when she saw in the rear view mirror that William was now running out of the gate. Was this scene similar to the one in which he left her that day?

The night in A City had become a little cold. Leaves littered both sides of the road, rolling in the autumn wind. William had found it difficult to pacify Mr. Chen, and it was past nine o'clock when he returned to Kylin International. He opened the door to complete darkness. Not even moonlight. William felt uneasy. Hadn't Mary returned yet?

Turning on the light, William pulled out his phone and looked at Mary's contact for a long time, but he didn't call her. Why should he call her? 'Mary, don't come back tonight if you can!'

He sat on the sofa in the living room in a huff, took some documents out of his bag and tried to work. But he was distracted and kept looking at the door from time to time.

The ticking of the wall clock was the only sound in the room, a kind of loneliness permeating the air.

Time passed by. William perused the documents for a while before he glanced at the clock.

It was already eleven o'clock. Why wasn't she back yet? Would she really not return?

He had barely begun to entertain this thought when he heard the sound of the key in the door and the doorknob turning. The door slammed open, knocking against the shoe rack with a bang. But the person who had entered didn't come in.

At the sound, William turned to see Mary wobbling in, leaning against the wall for support.

"Were you drinking?" William frowned.

"Hmm? Ha-ha!" Mary closed the door, a loopy smile on her face, and walked - or tried to walk -slowly towards William. "You... are at home?"

Mary's face had turned beet-red because of the alcohol, her eyes glinting brightly. She looked more charming than usual. This stunned William. But she reeked of smoke and alcohol, causing William to frown even more than usual.

"How much did you drink!" he said exasperatedly.

"Drink? I didn't drink! Pffffbt!" Mary stammered and shook her head, which, she realized, was a very bad idea.

William lost his temper as he watched her like this, so out of control.

He suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled at her. She turned to face him but lost control and fell into his arms. William hugged her and the moment she raised her head, their lips met.

Mary exhaled as they broke apart, the smell of alcohol wafting over William.

"William..." Mary said, squinting to look properly at him.

William shuddered, his anger disappearing.

Mary opened her arms, wrapped them around his neck, and moved closer to him.

Mary tightened her grip on him, taking the initiative to kiss him.

All of a sudden, Mary felt her head clear. She looked at the man in front of her and started to push him away.

"Aaaah! Let go of me! Stop!" Mary cried, trying to avoid his kiss.

"You kissed me first. I'm not going to stop!" William said fiercely. He then lowered his head and kissed her again.

Mary continued to struggle against him, clenching her fists and pounding his chest. But it didn't stop.

William didn't know why he didn't stop. All he knew was that he wanted to follow his feelings, and so he kissed her when he had her in his arms.

"Um..." Mary's mind was a mess. Her grip loosened slowly and her hands came to rest on William's shoulders. She couldn't help but lose herself in his kiss. They hugged each other. The more they kissed, the more intense the kiss became. William walked towards the bedroom without breaking the kiss. They continued to hug in the bedroom before William slammed the door shut.

After a long time, he sat up in bed, looking at Mary who was sleeping quietly, her hair messy and eyebrows knotted. She was so cute! "Mary..." he said softly.

William looked at her sleeping beside him, smiling slightly. He kissed Mary's forehead, rolled over, and hugged her tightly.

He suddenly felt very satisfied. Mary liked him. Why would she kiss him otherwise? Now no one could take her away from him. Then William snuggled up to Mary and fell asleep with her in his arms. Candy Q
