Contract bride: from contract wife to his obsession chapter forty four
The restaurant was warm and lively, filled with the soft clinking of glasses and low conversations drifting through the air. For the first time in days, Ava felt slightly relaxed. She had close from work early to spend time with Jane..She sat across from Jane near the large glass windows, absentmindedly stirring the drink in front of her while Jane watched her with curiosity.“You’ve been quieter than usual today,” Jane said, leaning forward slightly.Ava looked up faintly. “Tired maybe.” she said.Jane narrowed her eyes playfully. “Or thinking about your husband?”Ava almost rolled her eyes. “Please.”Jane laughed softly. “What? I’m serious.”She lowered her voice dramatically. “You’re married to Elias Ward. The Elias Ward.”Ava sighed softly, though a small smile briefly touched her lips.Jane immediately noticed.“Aha.”Ava frowned slightly. “What?”“That smile,“There was no smile,“There was definitely a smile.”Ava shook her head lightly and took a sip from her drink while J

The moment Jeff left the Lin residence, the atmosphere inside became chaotic. Clara stood frozen for only a few seconds before panic fully settled in.“What is wrong with him?!” she said as She snatched the divorce papers from her mother’s hand angrily, flipping through them again as if hoping the words would somehow change. But they didn’t. Every page remained the same, official and real.“He can’t divorce me over something this small!”Rose looked at her daughter carefully. “This didn’t start today, Clara.”Clara looked up sharply. “So you’re blaming me too now?”Rose sighed tiredly.“I’m asking what exactly you did to push him this far.”Clara scoffed immediately. “I didn’t do anything.”Rose gave her a look. “A married woman publicly embarrassing herself over another man isn’t ‘nothing.’”“That’s not what happened!”“But it’s what everyone saw.”Clara’s expression twisted with frustration. “Why is everyone acting like I committed a crime?”.“Because your marriage is falling

The atmosphere inside the Lin residence was tense long before Jeff arrived. Clara sat restlessly on the couch,l with irritation written all over her face as she vented angrily to her mother.“I’m telling you, Mom, I can’t keep living like this.”Rose sat opposite her quietly, listening while sipping tea. Ever since Clara arrived that morning, she hadn’t stopped complaining.“Jeff has become unbearable,” Clara continued bitterly. “Every single conversation now is about money.”Rose raised an eyebrow slightly. “Well, his company is struggling.”“That’s not my fault!” Clara snapped immediately and crossed her arms tightly. “He complains anytime I buy anything now. Even yesterday he started calculating how much I spend weekly.”Her face twisted in disgust as she continued, “Can you imagine?”Rose looked at her carefully and said,“And what exactly do you expect him to do?”Clara stared at her mother in disbelief. “You’re taking his side?”“I’m being realistic.”Clara scoffed loudly.

By the time Clara returned home, she looked like a disaster. Her hair was damp and sticky from spilled drinks, her makeup ruined, and her expensive dress clung awkwardly to her body. But none of that compared to the rage burning inside her.The humiliation at the lounge replayed endlessly in her mind.The way people stared and laughed and also the whispers. And worst of all the way Elias had looked at her cold and disgusted as though she were something beneath him.Clara stormed into the living room and threw her handbag violently onto the couch.“This is all her fault!” Her voice echoed through the house. She paced furiously, her heels striking harshly against the floor.“Ava!” Her face twisted with hatred as she shouted. “Everything is because of that pathetic girl!”The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. To her, Ava had ruined everything,Stolen attention and power. And now even Elias Ward had humiliated her publicly because of Ava.Clara clenched her fists tigh

The moment Clara reached their table, the atmosphere shifted very obviously. She carried herself with calculated confidence with every step deliberate and every movement designed to attract attention and it did get attention. Several eyes in the lounge followed her immediately.Her dress was tight and revealing far more than elegance required, hugging her figure provocatively. It was the kind of outfit meant to tempt and provoke reactions especially from men. Raymond noticed it instantly and nearly sighed out loud.Married woman behavior, he thought dryly.But Clara didn’t even glance at him because her entire focus was on Elias. She stopped beside him with a bright smile.“Mr. Ward.” she said smiling.Elias barely looked up,his attention remained on the drink in his hand. This slight dismissal irritated Clara immediately but she forced her smile to remain intact.“You probably remember me,” she continued smoothly. “I’m Clara.” but there was Still no reaction.Her smile stiffen

The soft sound of jazz drifted through the lounge while city lights shimmered beyond the glass walls. Unlike the noisy clubs Raymond usually preferred, this place was quieter and more private. A favorite spot for businessmen and powerful people who wanted peace without attention,the type of place that Elias preferred.Elias sat comfortably on one of the leather chairs while a glass of whiskey rested untouched in his hand. Across from him, Raymond leaned back lazily, looking far more relaxed than usual.“For someone about to join the police force officially,” Elias said calmly, “you seem unusually free.”Raymond grinned immediately. “Enjoying my last days of peace.”Elias shook his head faintly. “You got transferred already?” he asked.“Mm.” Raymond nodded. “The approval finally came through.”“When do you resume?”“Next week.”Elias gave a slight nod. “That fast?” he saidRaymond laughed softly. “You sound disappointed.”“I’m questioning the judgment of the people hiring you.” E
