Falling for My Contractual Wife

Louise could not believe what she heard. "Brian, what do you mean? Do you think I'll cause trouble for Nova if I move over?"

Brian pressed between his eyebrows. "That's not what I meant."

He just felt that if Nova really wanted to do something, Louise was not her match at all.

"Then don't say anything. If it weren't for the fact that I haven't married you for so long, would I be so insecure?" As Louise spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. Brian looked at her and frowned. "Alright, let's go. I'll send you back to pack your clothes."

Louise had mixed feelings. She was not happy because of his words.

He was still avoiding the topic of marriage and would rather compromise and let her move over.

Nova and Jasmine arrived home first.

Jasmine said, "Nova, you can stay in the room you stayed in last night."

Nova hesitated for a moment and said, "Mom, can I stay in the room across the hall? The one with the door locked."

Jasmine paused for a moment. "That room... that's fine too. Melvin, go get the key and open it for Nova."

Melvin did not move. He looked troubled.

Nova asked in confusion, "Melvin, what's wrong?"

Melvin did not know how to answer. After all, Grace was already dead. It was not a good thing to mention.

Ever since Grace moved out of this house, no one had stayed in that room. Only Brian would occasionally go to that room to sleep after drinking too much.

At this moment, a deep voice sounded. "Any room is fine, but not that room!"

Nova frowned and the confusion on her face intensified. "Brian, what' wrong? Why can't I stay in that

room? I just think that room is closer to Mommy."

At this moment, Louise's voice sounded. "That's the room Grace slept in. Oh, right, you don't know yet, right? Grace is Brian's ex-wife."

As soon as she said this, the entire living room fell silent.

Especially Brian, his entire body seemed to be gradually covered in a layer of cold air. Jasmine looked at Louise coldly. She became even more dissatisfied with Louise.

She didn't want that part of the past to be brought up, however, Louise had to mention it. Louise also realized that she had said something wrong and quickly covered her mouth.

At this moment, Jasmine stepped forward to smooth things over. "Nova, I'm sorry to let you hear such a bad thing. Brian's ex-wife has been gone for many years. She has

stayed in that room before. We feel that it's indeed not a good thing to give you that room. Look, why don't you stay in the room last night?"

Nova said, "Mom, it's just a room. Even if there's a ghost, she will be looking for the perpetrator. She won't be able to haunt me, right?"

"You still can't. No one can stay in that room!" Brian said coldly.

The only memory he had of Grace was that room. If that room was occupied by someone else, he would have nothing.

Just thinking about it made him feel terrified.

The atmosphere was a little tense. Jasmine glared at his son. "Brian, why are you shouting? If Nova wants to stay in that room, just let her." Brian refused no matter what. He stared at Nova coldly. "If you have to stay in that room, I will have to kick you out of here."

This was the first time he had said such harsh words to Nova.

Jasmine was so angry that shenovelbin

stomped her feet and punched him hard. She quickly comforted Nova. "Nova, don't be angry. How about

thu can stay in my room,

okay?"
