Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

Chapter 273

273 Lolita chasing her crush

When it was Celestine’s turn, she pulled Jeslyn into a hug and said: “Jeslyn, my talented student, I’m proud of you. I hope that you soar higher than me.”

“Teacher flatters me, I’ll try to not disappoint you.” Jeslyn smiled.

“You’ve met them all,” she shifted her gaze to Maverick and others. “I forced them here. Some of them didn’t attend my debut and they owed it to me, so as my first student to debut, I asked them to come. and pay their debts.”

When everyone heard this explanation, some sighed in relief and others immediately accepted; it was a feasible explanation. However, those who knew the truth rolled their eyes.

Manager Kate sighed. That was a relief but why did Maverick shake Jeslyn? That was a question she won’t be getting an answer to today.

In all this drama, the person who was equally shocked and couldn’t help herself when she saw the big shots was Lolita!

Kill her, but she would never have believed that she would be seeing her long–time crush among those attending Jeslyn’s debut today. She’s also one of the many that felt Jeslyn was directly connected to the big shots.

But that would rest for now because, at this moment, she’s about to start her pursuit of her dream

man. 2

After the event ended and people were starting to leave, Lolita didn’t wait for Jeslyn like she promised and ran after Matt. She knew he was a doctor and doctors cared about lives, so the only way to get his

attention was to need the help of a physician in a place where only he is the available doctor. Hehe,

brilliant! 2

“Excuse me!” Lolita started to hurry towards them with her phone held to her ears, pretending like she was talking to someone on the phone.

“What do you mean?! My upcoming debut?! Ok, I’ll be there in a jiffy!” She ran past Maverick and his friends and just a little distance away from them, she let out an ear–piercing shrill.

“Ahhhh!” She fell with a loud thud.

Celestine sighed, having an inkling of what had happened to her. She’s a lady who wears heels too, so she understands perfectly well. “Lolita, why aren’t you behaving like a lady? What are you in haste

for?”

“Teacher?!” Lolita had no idea that Celestine was inside one of the cars in the park, if not she would have been more careful. “It hurts, my ankle hurts.” She burst into tears. Both from embarrassment and the fear that her plans failed and her crush will be slipping away too.

Celestine chuckled and shook her head. Her three students are weirdos. “Rex, check on her.”

“I’m not a doctor, why should I check on her? Matt, you should check on her, it’s your profession after

all.” Rex said.

Matt didn’t even spare Rex a glance before he opened his car door and was about to get in when

Celestine stopped.

“Don’t be a jerkass. She’s my student.”

Matt paused. He was mad at Rex and Celestine but couldn’t say no to her, so he shifted his gaze to Lolita who was wearing a long off–shoulder black gown and gestured to one of his men to bring her

into his car.

Lolita’s heart bubbled with excitement but her face looked pained with sweat on her forehead because she twisted her ankle for real.

In an unknown location…

Pink is seen staring at the large TV on the wall. Seeing Jeslyn being surrounded by reporters battling to interview her, Pink smiled faintly and wiped the blood off her face with the back of her right hand which was holding a silver gun.

“Child, keep soaring while I uproot the obstacles off your path.” She lowered her gaze to the dead lady on the floor and curled her lip into a sneer..

“Don’t you intend to tell her? She’s no longer a child.” Yellow asked this question again while searching for something in the dead lady’s bag. Not being able to see what she was looking for, she poured the content of the bag onto the center table.

“Not yet, she needs to stabilize herself and build influence… She’ll need all the help she can get.” Pink replied.

Yellow nodded. “Found it,” she took a small flash drive from the things on the table and passed it to Pink. “What should we do to her body?”

“Set the house on fire. She died in a fire accident that originated from the kitchen.”

“Ohk…” Yellow chuckled.

In no time, the brown building that was standing alone in the middle of nowhere was seen burning furiously in the open.

Inside the car running through the quiet road, Yellow smiled: “Three spies down, two more to go.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

“Hmm.”

“So, where are we going now?” Yellow asked with her eyes on the road.

“To the fourth spy,” Pink replied.

The half–heart organization sent spies after Jeslyn. If not for Diana who alerted her on time, she

would have been done for.

“Alex, the sky is gathering storm and for the first time, I’m scared of the tough times ahead.” Yellow turned her head to look at Pink who was looking out the window of the front passenger seat. “Whatever the storm brings, it won’t touch my family unless it kills me first.” She shifted her gaze back to Yellow. “Don’t be scared, you have a long life ahead of you.”

Yellow turned to look at the road. “You know, when I first saw Jeslyn in prison, she was so innocent

that I wanted to give up everything to shield her from this world.” She smiled. In a flicker of an eye,

her smile turned bitter… “Who would have thought she was directly connected to this world of ours?”

Pink rested her head on the seat and closed her eyes, then she heard Yellow’s question.

“Who is her father?”

Pink slowly opened her eyes but didn’t reply.

“I thought as much… this is the third time I’m asking!

“She has no father,” Pink replied. 1
