Love Contract
Chapter 247 Illusion (Part Two)

The bright light was not as bright as his passionate eyes. Moreover, Aisha was mesmerized by his tenderness.

William looked at the woman in front of him with a gentle gaze. He just could not get enough of her face. All of a sudden, a thought came to his mind. He gently held up her chin, and slowly lowered his head. Inch by inch, his lips moved towards hers.

Aisha closed her eyes nervously.

Their lips moved nearer and nearer, and they could feel each other's breaths as they moved closer.

Ring! Ring! Ring!

All of a sudden, a ringtone broke the romantic atmosphere. Aisha opened her eyes in an instant.

William angrily took out his phone and hung up coldly. "Where were we?" he asked slyly. It was unusual for Mary to cooperate with him in public. He could not miss this chance! Ring! Ring!

Before the atmosphere could even recover, his phone rang again.

"Wait for me," William said to the woman gently. When he turned to answer the phone call, his voice changed into a fierce tone. "It's so late. What's up? Tell me!"

"Boss," said Kevin on the other end of the line, "there is a problem with the bidding of the land in the old district in northwest. You need to come here immediately." Frowning, William responded, "I'll be right there." "Okay, sir."

"Something happened in the company. I have to go now. Wait for me!" After hanging up the phone, William nodded to the store manager. He then patted Aisha's back to comfort her and strode away. Aisha could not help but stare at William. She felt her heart beating so fast. He was so handsome! So cool! So overwhelming! 'He's my cup of tea!' Aisha thought to herself.

It was not until William's figure disappeared from her sight and Jazlyn's loud voice came through that Aisha came back to her senses.

"Boss," said Jazlyn, waving her hand in front of Aisha who was stunned, "what are you staring at? Is there any handsome guy?"

"Yes!" Aisha nodded happily. "The handsome guy just talked to me. Oh, my God!" "Eh?" Jazlyn rested her hands at the hips and said with contempt, "You left me in another store just to see a handsome man yourself? Boss! May I ask if you have decided on your dress?"

"Yes, of course!" Aisha nodded and pointed at the dress. "This one. Go and buy it for me. I, your boss, will make a splash at the celebration party!"

"Yes, ma'am." Shaking her head, Jazlyn walked into the shop and added, "Don't forget your business."

After the two ladies had chosen their dresses and left, Aisha still felt regretful. She had already met the handsome man twice, but she did not know his name yet. How unfortunate!

In Kary Villa.

As soon as Mary had put the two kids to sleep, William called her on the phone.

"Hello? Mary, have you gone back home?"

"I've been home since long ago!"

"That's good," William nodded his head and continued, "I had to go back to the company temporarily. I wanted to pick you up from the shopping mall, but it's too late. I figured you've already gone home, so I'm driving home directly. I'll be home soon. Wait for me. Talk later."

"Huh? Okay." Albeit confused, Mary hung up the phone.

The shopping mall? Did he make a mistake?

Thirty minutes later, the beam of William's headlight swept through the gate of the villa.

William drove his Maserati back to the villa in a good mood. He was happy because he had resolved the company's affairs.

"You're back." Mary had just taken a shower. When she heard his car, she rushed downstairs while wearing a bathrobe.

"Yes, I'm back!" William walked up to her and kissed her on the cheek. The fragrance of her body wash filled his nose and he could not stop smiling. "My Mary smells so good."

"Shut up. I'm not yours." Mary blushed and added, "You also smell good after taking a shower."

Since Mary moved here with two children, William had fully fulfilled his responsibility as a good husband and a father. He went to work on time and got off work on time.

Every night, William pestered Mary and deliberately made love to her to make up for all his love to her in the past four years.

At this moment, William could not resist the urge to touch Mary's body under the bathrobe. "Don't." Mary pushed him gently and whispered, "We are still in the living room." "Then let's go upstairs." After kissing her affectionately, William picked her up in his arms and went upstairs.

After a passionate sex, Mary lay in William's arms. The two were like two halves of a broken jade, clinging to each other without a gap. Only in this way could they become complete.

"Are you tired?" William said as he kissed Mary on the forehead.

"Yes." Mary nodded.

"It doesn't matter." William chuckled. "It will be fine when you get used to it."

Mary, who was afraid that he would start a new round, hurriedly changed the topic. "Why did you come back so late tonight?" she asked.

"Hmm?" Raising his eyebrows, William asked, "Mary, don't you know the reason?"

"Me?" Mary asked in confusion. "Did you send me a message? I didn't see it!"

"No! I mean, when we were at the mall earlier today," answered William, "I left in a hurry after answering the phone. Didn't you hear me? I said

"Wait!" Perplexed, Mary interrupted him. "What did you say? What mall? I came home straight from the company today! I didn't see you earlier. "What?'1

Hearing this, William was petrified at once. Mary felt his body stiffened as well.

"What... what's wrong?" Startled, Mary asked, "What happened?"

"You... you really didn't go to the mall? Didn't you go shopping for a dress? In Chanel..." William swallowed hard.

"No, I didn't," answered Mary while shaking her head.

William's eyes widened with shock. Mary would not lie. She could never lie! But then, if the woman was not Mary, who did he see earlier? So weird! Was it all an illusion? "What's wrong? You are freaking me out, William! " Mary shook William's arm worriedly.

"Mary," said William while holding her in his arms, "it seems I had an illusion. It must be because I love you too much."

"Humph!" Mary pouted. "How could it be possible?"

"Really, Mary!" William said hurriedly. "It seems that I can't be far away from you."

"You rascal!" Pursing her lips, Mary chuckled and said, "I'm going to sleep now. I'm so tired."

"I'll hold you as you sleep." "Okay.'1

Mary closed her eyes. She fell asleep easily so she did not notice the way William looked at her.

At this moment, William's heart started beating like a drum. Did Mary lose her memory or did he really have an illusion? He decided to go see a doctor the next day. In the hospital.

Barry was physically and mentally exhausted after going through so much.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

As he was about to sleep, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Open it," ordered Barry to the nurse.

"Okay, Mr. Gu." The nurse nodded and opened the door, only to see Ray, who was brought to the ward by a nurse.

"Hello. Are you the uncle I bumped into this morning?" Ray's eyes were covered with gauze. He thought it was Barry who opened the door so he talked to the nurse.

Barry, who was lying on the bed, was stunned and signaled at the nurse to let the little boy in.

"Yes, I am." Barry looked at the little boy in front of him. "I'm sorry, uncle." Ray bowed politely and continued, "It was my fault this morning. I heard from the nurse that you were hurt by me again. I feel very sad. I'm terribly sorry. Can you forgive me, uncle?"

"Ray? Is your name Ray?" Barry suddenly asked and looked at the little boy in front of him with curiosity. He did not know if the curiosity was piqued because of his mother.

"Yes, my name is Ray. My full name is Raymond Shen. My mommy calls me Ray," the little boy answered proudly.

"Well, not bad!" Barry nodded and asked, "What's wrong with your eyes? Why are they wrapped with gauze?"

"Because I can't see." Ray bit his lips which started to tremble. "Mom said I need to have an operation. Now my eyes are covered in gauze with potion!"

Barry smiled. Perhaps because he had not seen Alick and Elissa for a long time so he was very patient with the boy in front of him.

"Do you feel sad that you can't see?" Barry asked again.

"I'm not sad, but I'm afraid that Mommy will be sad. Only when my eyes have been cured, would Mommy not need to work so hard to make money."

"I know your mother." "Really? Uncle, you know her?" Ray was taken aback and almost jumped up with excitement.

"Yes, she and I" Barry suddenly paused. Thinking of the terrible night he had spent with Selah, it was a little difficult for him to face the little boy in front of him. "Your mother and I... we work together." "Uncle, could you please take care of my mother?" Ray fumbled as he searched for Barry's hand. When he found it, he held it gently and sincerely. "My mother has been working hard alone."

"Well, if that's the case then I will." Barry nodded, raised his hand, and touched Ray's head gently.

Selah's son was very considerate. He knew he loved his mother very much. Barry wondered if Ray's father would regret knowing that he had such a good child.

"Thank you, uncle!" Ray grinned and said, "Uncle, you are so kind. You must recover as soon as possible! Otherwise, I will be very sad!"

"Don't worry. I... I'm fine."

"Ray, it's getting late. It's time for you to go to bed," said the nurse who accompanied Ray.

"All right." Ray nodded his head and turned to Barry again. "Uncle, you should go to bed early too. I'll come see you every day until you recover. Mom always tells me that a boy who is brave enough to apologize is a real man. Uncle, please forgive me!"

"You are a good sensible man. How can I not forgive you?" Barry's heart softened and he said, "Then you should go back and rest as soon as possible. I'll wait for you here tomorrow!"

"Okay. Good night, uncle!"
