Contract Marriage: My Sweet Bossy Wife novel Chapter 145

However, in the eyes of Lorenzo, it didn’t look like a pleasing moment.

He somehow felt a bang of pain deep inside his heart.

Never had he expected Jessica to attend this banquet. He was stunned at the very beginning.

However, when he saw Aunt Valentina, he suddenly realized what was happening.

The medical talent Valentina had mentioned about actually referred to Jessica.

The banquet was just an excuse she came up with so as to arrange a blind date between Wilfred and Jessica.

“Honey!” Lorenzo strode forward decently while frowning. His voice sounded quite chilling.

Soon, Jessica captured his husky voice, she raised her head and saw Lorenzo approaching.

Though wrapped inside the suit, his muscular and statuesque body still caught her eyes.

With the light from chandelier shedding on his face, he looked less aggressive than usual. He somehow appeared both gentle and aloof, triggering others’ will to reach.

However, his serious expression at this moment seemed too threatening for others to get close to at the same time.

With his lips pressed, Lorenzo approached domineeringly.

What was going on?

How came he appeared here?

Jessica was so confused.

It should be a banquet exclusive for medical practitioners, not for businesspeople, she supposed.

Jessica trotted over to him. However, she accidentally stumbled herself. Seeing that, Wilfred hurried forward. Fortunately, before her face hit the ground, Lorenzo managed to catch her a bit earlier than Wilfred.

“Hey, be careful.” Lorenzo hugged her into his arms. But his voice still sounded emotionless.

“But…Lorenzo…what brought you here? I was surprised when seeing your sudden arrival…”

“Valentina, the chairwoman of the Training Institute, is my aunt. Wilfred is my half-blooded brother.” While staring at her, Lorenzo tightened his hug on her waist.

What?

Jessica was stunned.

So incredible!

Valentina was actually his aunt?

While Wilfred, the most promising young talent in the medical world of Fretston was his brother?

“Wait a second…what’s going on?” Valentina was also stunned when hearing their conversation.

She had planned to introduce Jessica to Wilfred, and then tried to make a match between them.

Everything went on smoothly until Lorenzo suddenly showed up.

“Jessica, what’s going on? Lorenzo is married! That is known to all in our family. But how did you…what’s your relationship with him?” Valentina couldn’t help exclaiming out of surprise.

At this moment, Lorenzo suddenly pinched her skin. Jessica soon felt the great pain. But meanwhile, she could clearly tell that Lorenzo was now being extremely displeased.

Undoubtedly, he did this out of madness.

“But…Ms. Fletcher…you’re right…He’s married. And I am his wife…” Jessica replied awkwardly.

Jessica was his wife?

Hearing that, Valentina was shocked.

“Honey, you should address her as Aunt Valentina just like I do.” Lorenzo smiled at Valentina mockingly.

“Aunt Valentina, I am so sorry…” Jessica apologized to her embarrassedly.

Valentina felt like being frozen.

From her perspective, it was such a pity that she had been the wife of Lorenzo, whom she favored the least between the two nephews.

She should have been the girlfriend of Wilfred, Valentina sighed.

But there was something she was still confused about—as far as she knew, Jessica was just sixteen. But she had got dual doctorate degrees. How came Leila claimed that she hadn’t even finished her study in middle school?

What a ridiculous rumor!

Valentina felt like being choked while looking at Jessica. She felt really sorry for her being the wife of Lorenzo, who was once sent to madhouse due to mental issues.

“Wilfred, come over here.” Lorenzo fixed his eyes on Wilfred.

Then he continued, “This is my wife, Jessica Fletcher. Your sister-in-law!”

Obviously, he was pointing out his marriage with Jessica.

As always, he declared it in a domineering way.

Standing still, Wilfred was gazing at Lorenzo’s grip onto Jessica’s waist.

Obviously, Lorenzo was claiming his right to Jessica.

Meanwhile, Wilfred had witnessed everything.

Wilfred’s face turned seriously sullen. Anger was slightly escalating within his eyes while he was staring at Lorenzo.

The eye contact between the two men seemed to indicate an upcoming storm.

“Lorenzo, I think it’s time to leave.” Jessica suggested so when she noticed the atmosphere was getting intense. While speaking, she leaned against his chest, acting softly to plead with gentle voice.

“Aunt Valentina, Jessica looks a bit tired. I gotta take her home. And welcome to drop by in my house at any time.” Lorenzo smiled formally.

Before Valentina could reply, he left with Jessica.

“See you…” Jessica uttered apologetically while looking at Valentina and Wilfred awkwardly.

Lorenzo tightened his hug on her again to lead her away.

“Wilfred, tell me, have you known before me that Jessica has married Lorenzo already?” Valentina frowned to ask coldly.

Wilfred nodded to reply.

“I can’t believe that such a nice girl has been captured by Lorenzo already! I really wanna make her your girlfriend!”

“No wonder grandma seems so weird. She must be worrying if I have a crush on Jessica. So she was trying to hold me back.”

“How came Lorenzo actually married her! What a pity!” Valentina sighed again.

“Aunt Valentina, what is done is done. Nothing can change. Well, I think I gotta go.” Wilfred was about to leave.

“Wilfred, wait.” Valentina hurried to stop him.

“Perhaps Jessica hasn’t known about his physical condition…Wilfred, to be honest, do you have a crush on Jessica?”

But still, Wilfred continued to step forward and bypassed her.

He only replied with silence.

“Wilfred, listen, I am sure that Jessica is still a virgin!” Valentina shouted at him from behind.

“Lorenzo doesn’t deserve the marriage. If you love her, take her back!”

Hearing that, Wilfred suddenly stopped and turned around to look at her.

“Listen, I bet Jessica is still a virgin!” Valentina repeated again.
