Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom
Chapter 75

75 My room in 10 minutes

"I understand, but Valen is too young for such, he should be playing with toys at this age and when he's a little older, he can then do what he needs to do." (1

Pink sighed and shook her head. What else could she say? No matter what she said, Jeslyn wouldn't reason with her so she left her to do things how she wanted. "Since the day you got married to Master, little master became your responsibility, hope you know

that?"

Jeslyn nodded.

"Master won't interfere in how you raise him, the same way he didn't interfere when Mulan was taking care of him. No one will stop you from training little master however you want, but... make

sure you

don't turn him into a simp. I can see that the boy has started to like you, make us proud, dear little bunny." Pink advised.

"Hmm..."

Seeing Jeslyn nod, Pink got lost in her thoughts for a while as she looked at the beautiful Jeslyn.

Pink snapped out of her thoughts and got up. She walked to the bed and stood beside Jeslyn.

Jeslyn turned to look at her, wondering what she wanted to do before Pink picked up the duvet and spread it on Jeslyn. "You should sleep, this is almost midnight."

Jeslyn nodded but then asked: " aren't you sleeping?"

Pink didn't say anything and returned to the couch. She couldn't tell Jeslyn that she was here to watch over them through the night, Jeslyn would freak out and force her to go to sleep. "When do you intend to go back to Rose City? Yellow told me you are planning to go greet your grandfather."

Jeslyn nodded, "that's right, but I'm not sure your boss will allow it," she sighed. He didn't allow her to finish the words the last time, so there won't be any reason he'll let her say it again this time. "Weakling," Pink rolled her eyes.

"Huh?" Jeslyn sat up and rested her back against the headboard, "he must have a reason for not letting me go, right?"

"Of course... but he has the power to protect you, don't be stupid."

"I'm your Madam now, shouldn't you give me a little respect? Hehehe, Jeslyn teased and waggled her brows. 1

"Tsk, keep dreaming..." Pink snickered.

"Hahaha...I'll replace it weird if you start bowing or addressing me as others do. I'll be grateful if you don't slap my head in public." Pink was a lot older than Jeslyn. She might look very young like she's in her early twenties, but Jeslyn could tell that Pink and Yellow were in their late thirties or early 40s.

"I might do that when I desperately want my head on the stake."

C

people are- rumors."

Pink looked at Jeslyn for a long time and sighed. "You want to know?"

"Hm...yes," she nodded.

"Boss is a very-"

"Click"

Pink stood up at the clicking sound of the door. Her hand moved to her waist and rested on her gun, ready to pull it out. Jeslyn frowned as she looked towards the door, waiting to know who it was that didn't bother to sound the doorbell.

Without suspense, he walked in. Just like always, his demeanor was suffocating.

"Boss," Pink bowed in greeting.

"Hmm, leave," Maverick said slowly, however, Pink knew the order was for her, so she bowed and

walked out. 7

"Y-you are back," Jeslyn said a little nervously.

Her mind traveled to the event of that morning and the words he told her; 'We are consummating our marriage tonight'.

Jeslyn's cheeks turned pinkish at the lewd images flashing in her mind... she was imagining how things would go down.

'Would there be blood stains?'She heard and learned that the majority of women see blood for the first time. She also learned that some don't.

Jeslyn never stopped wondering what category she would fall in. However, she'd like to see her blood on the bed after the deed.

"...are you listening?" His voice came out colder than it used to be.

"Y-you said?" Jeslyn looked up at him sheepishly. 'Did he say something?' she thought.

Maverick stared at the blushing girl in silence for a long time before he walked unhurriedly to her on

the bed.

With every step he took slower to her, Jeslyn's heart beat hard against her ribcage.

Anticipation, excitement, nervousness, and all the weird feelings she couldn't place her fingers on, rushed into her, knocking her into staring foolishly at him. He stopped beside her and lowered his height.

Jeslyn got a shock with him being in her view, almost too close for a kiss on his cheek if she wanted

1.

'Is he about to start?... Here? Valen is...' she slowly turned her head to look at the child, his eyes tightly shut with his hand resting on her waist under the blanket. Jeslyn turned her head, took in a sharp breath, and widened her eyes as her face almost collided with his.

"Are you ok?" He asked in that deep voice.

Jeslyn swallowed and nodded. Her face was getting hotter and hotter. She slowly closed her eyes. Whatever the eyes didn't see, the mind wouldn't think.

However, after a long while, she didn't feel his skin on hers. Her brows furrowed slightly. Just when she was about to open her eyes, she felt the sheets on her getting tugged.

She snapped her eyes open to see Maverick kissing his son on his forehead before he raised himself to stand erect.

Jeslyn felt embarrassed at her own shameless thought. 'So all these and he was only intended to kiss his child? Goodness! What was I thinking?! 1

As Jeslyn was chastising herself, Maverick started to walk away. Jeslyn almost spoke out of disappointment.

Didn't he say this night? She thought he was a man of his words. After making her think of it throughout the day...

"mtchewww," Jeslyn mindlessly hissed. It wasn't loud enough for Maverick to hear, but Jeslyn thought he heard her hiss because, at the same time, he paused in his steps and turned around to look at her. "Meet me in my room in 10 minutes."

'Whaaaaat!' Jeslyn couldn't believe her ears. They must be playing jokes on her.

"Wh- what do you mean?" She summoned the courage to ask.

"My room... in 10 minutes..." he walked out after that. 1)
