Falling for My Contractual Wife

Brian furrowed his brows. "What the heck are you saying?"

"I'm talking reality here! Remember the Vance family party? You vanished for the whole night, only to stroll out the next morning! You seriously expect me to believe you just chatted the night away?" Brian's stare turned icy. "Are you spying on me, Louise?"
