My Pregnant Contract Wife Ran Away from Me!

Chapter 259: Chapter 259: Nameless Fury

Wen Ran’s face slightly changed when she heard Fu Jiayue’s question.

Even though it was posed as a question, the phrase "not presentable" felt impolite to the ears.

Wen Ran looked towards Fu Chenlie.

The latter frowned and cast a cold glance at Fu Jiayue, his tone chilly as he countered, "What did you say?"

Perhaps sensing Fu Chenlie’s mood, Fu Jiayue chuckled sheepishly, "I... was just asking casually, brother, don’t be so serious."

He withdrew his gaze and walked silently towards his desk.

Fu Jiayue followed behind him, tilting her head inquiringly, "By the way, brother, I never had the chance to ask you. You used to like Sister Wan Ning, but now you have a wife. What will you do if Sister Wan Ning comes back? Brother, will you divorce..."

Before she could finish the word "divorce," the man suddenly turned around, his eyes icy and stark as they landed on her face, frightening her into silence.

Fu Jiayue bit her lip, "Brother, I was just casually asking, don’t get angry."

"The things you shouldn’t ask about, don’t pry into," said Fu Chenlie with an icy look on his face.

She quickly nodded.

Fu Jiayue had always been afraid of her cousin. If she wasn’t asked by someone else today, she would never dare to question him so boldly. Now just one look from him made her want to leave on the spot.

After a brief moment of pensive silence, she turned back to look at Wen Ran.

Fu Jiayue walked up to her with a smile on her face, and warmly linked arms with her.

Wen Ran was not comfortable at all with being so close to someone she hardly knew and pulled her arm away,

Fu Jiayue tilted her head and probed, "Sister-in-law, you and my brother have been married for almost a month, right? Are you planning to have children?"

"Fu Jiayue!" Almost as soon as her words fell, an intense, cold voice, heavy with warning, rang out from Fu Chenlie.

Fu Jiayue shivered all over, looking at him with fear, "Brother... what’s wrong?"

The latter spoke indifferently, "Disappear from here at once!"

Fu Jiayue pursed her lips. Although she felt uncomfortable with his cold attitude, she dared not defy him and spoke timidly, "Well... the dance studio should be open by now, so I’ll take my leave, brother, goodbye."

With that, she left swiftly without even glancing at Wen Ran.

The door to the office opened and closed, and Fu Jiayue was gone.

After the office door shut, Wen Ran glanced at Fu Chenlie and turned to head toward her driver’s resting room.

"Stop right there!"

His voice called out from behind her.

She turned around, her face expressionless, "What is it?"

The man stood behind his desk, his eyes fixed on her, standing five meters away without immediately speaking.

His gaze was deep, as if he was pondering something.

Seeing that he was silent after calling her, Wen Ran chuckled lightly, "Boss, since when do you need to think before speaking to me? Is there something you’re hiding from me? Debating whether to come clean?"

Fu Chenlie’s eyes hesitated.

Secrets?!

His agreement with Grandma to get her pregnant in exchange for Wan Ning’s return was one.

The man gathered his thoughts and stepped toward her. Once he came to a standstill in front of her, he looked down at her with a slight smile on his lips, "I was wondering, what do you think about our secret marriage? Do you feel wronged?"

"Not at all."

"Really?"

Wen Ran nodded, casually affirming with an "Mm": "It’s just for a year before we divorce, so a secret marriage is quite good. After the divorce, no one will know I was married, and I won’t have to answer why I divorced every time I meet someone. For me, a secret marriage is a good thing."

She wasn’t bothered about the secret marriage; he should have been pleased by this.

Yet, as he watched her matter-of-factly mention "divorce," a nameless anger surged in his chest for no apparent reason.
