A Force Love Contract With GANG LEADER

Soft and slow music filled the air of the room without disturbing the two people who were playing chess. The antique chess pieces were made of elegant black walnut.

One of the pieces was removed from the checkerboard. Tristan checked his watch. His rival detected it and asked, “In a rush?”

He paused and said honestly, “I have an appointment for lunch.”

“Woman?”

Tristan smiled.

“Rumor says you have a little girlfriend that you are crazy about. You hang out with her all the time. I didn’t believe it, but now I am convinced. I thought we could have a good fight today…” He stopped and said, “What a surprise!”

“Ha, you laughed at me.”

“Hey, it is okay. Whatever career a man has, he has to have a family.”

“When will you start the position in the state government?”

“It was scheduled to start after the New Year, but I had to put it off. Kane lost one of his men recently. He has a problem with his heart and is on leave now. There are too many cases to leave unattended. I have to cover for him for a while.”

Tristan seemed uninterested in his job and switched to the subject that mattered most to him, “Well, I have contacted a top neurologist in New York and sent the medical records to him. There will be a consultation in a couple of days. I have wired payment to that account.”

“Thank you very much for your help.” The other one sighed, “Ruth has had numerous surgeries these past few years. My heart can never catch a break.”

“If this surgery goes well, it will be done for good. You won’t have to worry anymore.”

Kate ate half a dish of cookies while she was waiting. Vomiting became less frequent, and her eating volume increased as her belly grew bigger.

There was a shelf in the room with arts and crafts. A clear crystal ball with purplish color caught her eyes. She took it up and saw through it. It reflected her deformed face on the curved surface.

Tristan pushed the door and walked in. He saw what she was playing with and said, “Do you like it? Take it if you like.”

Kate asked in surprise, “Is it free?”

“Free.”

When they finished lunch and were going to leave, Kate heard Tristan tell the staff to put the crystal ball in the bill. She took it out of her purse immediately, but Tristan grabbed it and put it in his pocket, and held her hand out of the door.

After they got into the car, Kate said, “Can they make money with so few customers?”

Tristan laughed and said, “They are selling the quiet and secluded atmosphere here. Besides, they make a pile out of one customer.

Kate was shocked. Were the things they ate so expensive?Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Tristan took out the crystal ball from his pocket and gave it to Kate. It was clear with no impurities and even gave a purplish color as you turned around to see all its sides. “Is this real crystal?” Kate asked.

“No. Glass.”

The next day, Tristan spent the whole morning at home.

Kate had thrown up three times since she had woken up. She ate a small breakfast and then went back to bed. She lay there with her eyes closed, feeling dizzy.

Tristan stayed with her for a while and then went to his study to work.

While he was reading some emails, he heard the cat crying outside the window. First, it cried once. Later there was a scary cry. Something was wrong.

Laura knocked on the door and came in anxiously, reporting that Lucy was on the roof of the house and could not get down. It was meowing out of fear all this time.

Tristan went out of the house and saw Lucy was at the slope of the roof. It spread its fat body on the roof and grabbed the red tiles helplessly with its claws.

The window of the attic was opened slightly. The cat was a lazybones. Did it find a mouse in the attic?

The tiles were smooth, and Lucy had the tendency to slide down. It meowed helplessly.

Tristan asked Laura to take a blanket out and wait there to catch Lucy if she fell down. He went to the attic to rescue it.

Kate went into Tristan’s study after Tristan left the room.
