Marriage Contract: Love Game With CEO

There was a special pain in endless waiting; waiting with no end and without hope.

The sun and moon continued to dance with one another as day turned to night. Late autumn passed, and winter began as always. When December came, the first snow in A City fell, casting its white dust over everything.

Mary was bundled up in oversized clothing, then got out of the car. She placed a protective hand around her growing belly and made her way towards William's ward.

It had been two months, but William was still in a coma. Although his ventilator had been removed, and the doctors all said he was fine, William still refused to wake up.

"Madam, be careful."

Watts, the bodyguard employed by William, was in charge of keeping Mary safe. He followed her closely twenty-four hours a day and was always on the lookout for anything that might harm her.

"Don't worry about me. Thank you, Watts." Mary waved him off and smiled at him. "It's snowing today. The snowflakes are all so beautiful."

"Indeed," Watts replied and stood beside her respectfully.

"Watts, have you eaten yet?" Mary asked. "It's lunchtime. You can have lunch first if you're hungry. I'll go and see William. Nothing bad will happen."

"I'm not hungry."

"Ha ha..." Mary laughed and covered her mouth. "I knew you would say that. Every time I ask, you always give me the same answer," she teased, "You gave me the same answer yesterday but I heard your stomach growl."

Watts' face blushed immediately "Please don't tease me, madam. It's my duty to protect you. I'll always be here for you."

Mary rai

s still comfortable for me to wear them." Nancy waved her hand dismissively.

"I don't think so! Nancy!" The man next to her frowned and said, "I'm scared to death every day seeing you dressed like this! The more I tell you what to wear, the more you go against me!"

"Who's this man?" Mary asked, feeling amused by his reaction.

"Oh, I'm Nancy's husband. I'm Zion Cui. I apologize, I forgot to introduce myself." Zion reached a hand out politely and said, "It's nice to meet you."

"Likewise." Mary shook hands with him.

"Zion, wait for me outside. Mary is an old friend and I want to catch up with her for a bit." Nancy waved him away casually.

Zion glared at her and scoffed, "Alright, I'll only give you ten minutes."

"Why are you being such a party pooper?" Nancy waved him away again.

Zion shook his head with a doting smile and walked away.

"Your husband is so kind and considerate of you," Mary praised.

"He's like gum stuck to the bottom of my shoe. I can't get rid of him. He's so annoying!" Nancy said in a tone of fake disgust, with a charmed expression on her face. "Do you have time? Let's find a place to chat," she suggested as if they had been long-time friends.

"If you don't mind, we can go to William's ward… William is in hospital." Mary forced a smile on her face.

"William Lan?" Nancy was stunned to hear her mention his name. "You and him…"

"It's a long story."

"Let's go to his ward and have a chat, then." Nancy was still as energetic as ever. She pulled Mary towards William's ward, and Watts followed closely behind them.
