Contract Marriage: My Sweet Bossy Wife novel Chapter 124

Lorenzo and Jessica sat down on the fur blanket not far away from them. Then he took her in his arms, while Jessica beamed a calm smile at him as her legs touched his pants in a desultory way. She was enjoying the moment of being his little princess.

Lorenzo chuckled and let go of her.

Jessica turned over and looked up at the starry sky. She was ecstatic to find her constellation on the star ceiling.

Then she raised her hand and stared at her blue diamond ring with a smile, overwhelmed with happiness.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, she spotted shooting stars streaking across the sky. They shot from the top of the night sky and blazed like fireworks in front of her face. Jessica exclaimed and flinched away subconsciously.

"You get spooked, huh?"

Lorenzo chuckled, wrapped his strong arms around Jessica and kissed her gently on the smooth forehead.

Several seconds later, countless fireworks blasted in the sky. It was a firework show!

At first, the fireworks formed a few words: Love of my life.

After that came the firework display, and Jessica couldn’t even name many of the fireworks.

"Gosh! This is so beautiful!"

Jessica was amazed by the dazzling fireworks.

"Jessica, you’re the love of my life. I would like to be your protector, your shelter, and grow up with you. My dear princess, happy birthday!"

Lorenzo felt full with Jessica in his arms. He had never been so happy before.

…

Meanwhile, Leila didn’t go away after she was dragged out of the Claus Hotel by Aminah. She was dazzled by the beautiful fireworks in the night sky.

The grand firework show attracted everyone’s attention.

"Oh my God! This is the most incredible firework show I’ve ever seen in my life!"

"Is today some special day? Why is there a firework show going on?"

"Well, don’t you know that? Lorenzo Fletcher, the president of the Fletcher Group, planned this great firework show to celebrate his wife’s birthday."

"Whoa! It’s so moving! Mr. Fletcher must have spent a fortune on it!"

"Did you see that? Love of my life! Aww, it’s so romantic!"

"I want someone to love me like that!"

Leila looked up at Crystal Pavilion resentfully, her heart bleeding as she thought that Lorenzo and Jessica were having a sweet moment over there.

Lorenzo had given all his love and attention to Jessica. He had released countless sky lanterns for her. He had planned a beautiful firework show for her. He had prepared an artificial meteor shower for her…

All this should have been hers if Jessica hadn’t married him in place of her!

Anger, regret, jealousy and indignation engulfed Leila, but she was too numb to feel pain even if her fingernails were cutting into her palms.

The internet was filled with the news of Lorenzo celebrating Jessica’s birthday, which made Jessica and Lorenzo’s names remain on the top search. Besides, everyone was looking them up so that the network failed to work properly.

The number of Jessica’s fans on Season V-Broadcast was getting close to that of Amara’s. Meanwhile, Lorenzo showed no interest in social media. He hadn’t even updated his account, and there wasn’t any new information about him on the Fletcher Group’s website.

Leila refreshed the page, wanting to post something on Season V-Broadcast, but suddenly, she found Jessica was put on someone’s special list, and it was actually Lorenzo!

Leila tapped it and found that Lorenzo had registered a new account three seconds ago, and Jessica was the only one he followed.

In addition, there was only one post on his page, which said, "J, the love of my life! I would like to be your protector, your shelter, and grow up with you. My dear princess, happy birthday!"

Leila’s heart ached as she read those words, tears streaming down her face.

People showed their love all the time, and there were so many wealthy people in this world, but none of them would do so to their woman like Lorenzo.

Lorenzo was so rich and powerful, and he was the Prince Charming in every girl’s dream. Once he chose a woman, he would give whatever he had to her and created a world specially for her.

Jessica was only 23 years old. Her life had just begun, and she had a brilliant future.

Indeed, she was still a little girl in Lorenzo’s eyes, but he was willing to give her everything he had and grow up with her.

The internet was flooded with Jessica and Lorenzo’s names, and people held similar opinions on the matter.

"Wow! It turns out Mrs. Fletcher is Jessica. That’s totally different from what you said, Leila, hahaha!"

"Lorenzo and Jessica are a perfect match!"

"I’ve never seen any man spoiling his woman like this!"

"I told you guys long ago that Jessica would definitely be the queen of the world. Leila is no match for her. She’s embarrassing herself by coveting Jessica’s position. She’s nothing but a clown."

"I’ll never ask for more than being loved like Jessica."

"Leila, don’t you feel ashamed? You wish you could bury yourself now, right? Hahaha!"

Most importantly, Jessica’s most loyal supporter, Granny Mrs. Fletcher, also left a comment, saying that, "Who else has released countless sky lanterns for you? Who else has prepared a beautiful firework show and meteor shower for you? Who else has given all his love to you?"

The more Leila read, the more violently she shook. The next moment, she burst into tears with indignation.

Why would things turn out like this?

Why was Lorenzo treating her like this!

Why!

She was the best candidate for Mrs. Fletcher!

…

At midnight, Lorenzo walked out of the Claus Hotel with Jessica in his arm. They got into his limo and headed home.

Lorenzo looked ahead attentively at the road, the limited edition mechanical watch clicking on his wrist, the blue opal cufflinks sparkling against his white shirt, which made him look so elegant and sophisticated.

Somehow, he felt that someone had been tailing him. He glanced at the rearview mirror, only to see a car following them closely, while the one driving the car was exactly Leila.

It didn’t occur to him that this woman was like a gum stuck in his hair.

"It’s so delicious that I’d like to suspend my diet. Do you want to take a bite, Mr. Fletcher?"

Jessica was enjoying the birthday cake made by Lorenzo personally and held a spoonful of cake beside his mouth. She was putting all her attention on Lorenzo that she didn’t notice the car following them.

"Put it in my mouth."

It wasn’t until the spoon touched his lips that Lorenzo realized what Jessica was doing. He cast a looked at her subconsciously and saw cream on her lips, but she looked cute anyway.

"Open you mouth, Mr. Fletcher. Say 'ah'."

Jessica coaxed Lorenzo into opening the mouth happily.

Lorenzo ate the cake, but his eyes were fixed on the road ahead of him. When the time came, he spun the wheel sharply while jamming down hard on the gas. The car accelerated instantly and vanished from sight in a few seconds.
