Love Contract

Chapter 150 He's Back ( Part Three)

"Mary... Mary... "

"Victor..."

The two hugged each other tightly, not caring they had people watching them. Seeing this, Ena bit her bottom lip and felt sad.

"I didn't expect you would be here so soon." Mary's voice was choked with emotions.

"I really couldn't wait anymore. Four years is too long! I couldn't stand another second without seeing you."

"I am so sorry." After all, it was her fault.

"No, don't apologize. I am glad to finally meet you," he said, wiping the tears off her face.

"Where have you been in the past four years?" asked Mary.

"I traveled around the world." Victor smiled and began to fill her in with everything that had happened to him.

They were busy talking and in the process lost track of time. When they glanced outside, it was already dark, and the moon was shining into the room. "You haven't told me anything about the movie," he said smiling.

"Oh right! I completely forgot about work. How about we get to that tomorrow?" Mary suggested, raising her eyebrows. He nodded his head. "Will you come to my house for dinner today?"

"Of course!" he accepted her invitation in an instant.

Sitting in Mary's car, Victor realized how much she had changed in the past four years. "Looks like you have lived a completely different life. You are a big girl now," he said endearingly.

"What can I do? Circumstances forced me to change," said Mary, flashing him a smile.

"I still remember our first meeting like it happened yesterday. I had to carry your electric bicycle to my car. Do you have any recollection of it?"

"Of course, it's still fresh in my memory." As they thought about the olden days, a wave of nostalgia swept over them.

Soon, the car stopped outside her villa.

Victor looked around, curious to see where she lived.

Just when the two of them got off the car, her phone rang. She took it out of her pocket while saying,

"Victor, you should go inside. There will be people to receive you. I need to pick this call."

"What do you mean? Who is going to be there to receive me?" He couldn't conceal his confusion. Somehow, he was starting to feel nervous.

"You'll know when you get in! Be a man and go inside. It's not like I am asking you to enter a haunted mansion." Mary laughed and urged him to go inside.

Victor looked at her doubtfully. In the end, he had no choice but to oblige.

Elissa would be thrilled to see him, wouldn't she?

Mary smiled and answered the call.

"Hello? Jill, what's up?"

"Oh, Mary," Jill said, "AJ Group suddenly called and said that they wanted to discuss "Be Together" with you."

"Who exactly called?" Mary's eyes darkened. She hoped this had nothing to do with William. 'Can't he mind his own business and let the

Entertainment Department do their job!' she thought.

"The special assistant of AJ Group's CEO was the guy who made the call."

Rubbing her eyebrows, Mary said, "Well, then tell them I will talk to them in person at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Mary sighed. Once the movie was over, she promised herself she wouldn't keep any connection with William.

Victor stepped into the villa and looked around, not sure if he should continue walking.

"Who are you?" came a voice that seemed to belong to a little boy. Now the little boy appeared before him, looking at him up and down.

Victor took a step forward, gazing at the boy. There was something disturbingly familiar about the little boy. But he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"Victor? "

Victor was still confused, but Alick quickly recognized him. His beautiful eyes widened.

"Hey, little kid. Do you happen to know me?" said Victor smiling. He was pleasantly surprised by the boy's reaction.

"Of course I do!" Alick said, nodding his head.

"Brother!" Suddenly, a little girl descended the staircase. "I heard you talking. Has anyone come?" When Elissa's gaze landed on the man's face, she let out a shriek of surprise.

"Oh my God"

She rushed towards Victor. "Victor! Victor!" She kept on repeating his name, unable to believe he was actually here.

'Where am I?' Victor couldn't help but wonder. Before he could react, Elissa caught a hold of his thigh. Cuddling against it, she said, "Uncle Victor is actually here! I am so happy."

"Kid, how do you know me?"

Victor squatted down and looked at Elissa with a smile.

"Don't talk. Just hug me!" Elissa pleaded with a cute smile. He looked at her, dumbfounded. But she began to implore.

'Well, how can I refuse that?' he thought and pulled her into an embrace. Victor's heart melted at the sight of her. He had never seen such an adorable girl before.

"Oh my God! Uncle Victor is hugging me!" Elissa kissed him on the cheek several times.

"Crazy!" Alick said as he watched his sister's reaction.

"She is crazy!" Lucas agreed.

Ascending the stairs, he stood watching the spectacle before him.

"Kid, may I know your name?" Victor passed her a feeble smile.

"My name is Elissa. And I will be marrying you in the future,"

she announced. Victor was taken aback. "Why... Why will you marry me?"

"Because I like you!" Elissa confessed shyly and hid her face behind her hands.

Victor was at a loss for words. Mary had finished the call with Jill and had now stepped into her house. Luckily, she had the honor of witnessing her daughter's confession. Seeing the bewildered expression on Victor's face, she burst out laughing.

"Mary..." Victor eyed her helplessly.

"Alright, Elissa!" Mary smiled at her daughter. "I think you need to let go of Uncle Victor."

"No!" Elissa refused to leave him.

"Who is she?" asked Victor, hoping she would put him in the picture.

"Elissa is my daughter."

"Your... Daughter?" Victor's face was washed blank with confusion. After gathering his wits, he looked at Lucas, who was standing near the staircase with Alick. Disappointment crept to his face. In a feeble voice, he said, "So you have already... Married?"

"No." Mary shook her head, understanding Victor had mistaken Lucas for her husband. "They aren't Lucas' kids. He is a very good friend of mine. My children lovingly call him daddy."

'Good friend. Is that all?' Lucas wondered.

A wry, self-mocking smile appeared on his face.

"If that's the case, then who is their father?" Victor demanded, waiting for her to disclose the truth.

"Well... I think we should talk about it some other time." Mary bit her lips.

Victor wasn't satisfied. He glanced at Elissa whose face didn't give him any answers. However, when he turned to Alick, something struck him. "Do you mean... Are they... " He could only speak broken sentences and his expression revealed profound shock.

As soon as Mary saw his expression, she knew he had understood it. Nodding at him, she revealed, "Yes, they are his children."

Now it dawned on him why they looked so familiar. It turned out that they were William's children!

"You and him..." Victor swallowed.

"No, no, no." Mary shook her head, realizing she had a lot of explanation to do. "In fact, he has no idea about it. I met him recently but didn't mention this. Please keep it a secret for my sake."

Victor pursed his lips and nodded. "Mary, tell me what happened to you in the past four years. I feel like I know nothing!" He let out an exasperated sigh.

"Just relax, I will tell you everything."

Mary went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

When she came out, her kids were busy playing. Sitting next to Victor, Mary told him everything, letting the cat out of the bag.

"Why... Why didn't you call me? I had gone to your hometown, looking for you. However, you weren't there."

"I am so sorry. I didn't want you to get involved in that back then," Mary said.

Moreover everyone knew about her relationship with William. If she had stayed with Victor, it would have a serious impact on him. She couldn't bear the thought of hurting him.

"Are you happy now?" he asked. It was a simple question, but one he needed to know badly. Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes, I am extremely happy with them. If it weren't for these little angels, I don't think I could have borne the pain of losing my mother," Mary replied honestly. "I am glad you are happy." Victor nodded. There were a million things he wanted to tell her. But knowing fully well that now wasn't the right time, he resorted to remaining silent.

"Uncle Victor, will you stay here tonight?" Elissa came running. Standing close to him, she looked at him expectantly.

"Well..." Victor didn't know how to respond.

"You should live here. We have many rooms." Seeing he hadn't given her a response, Elissa shook his arm and begged, "I want to sleep with you!"

Her brazen suggestion made him smile.

"Elissa! I see you like Uncle Victor more. You aren't paying any attention to Daddy Lucas," said Lucas, looking aggrieved.

"No! I love Daddy Lucas," Elissa replied firmly, but she barely glanced at him. Instead, she chose to cling closer to Victor.
