Falling for My Contractual Wife (Grace and Brian) novel Chapter 655

Carson uttered those words as if he had exhausted all his strength.

Vivian remained silent. After a long moment, she said, "You're lying! If you don't like me, why did you kiss me?"

Carson furrowed his brow, figuring that Joy must have told Vivian about him kissing her.

He said calmly, "You've misunderstood. Joy was mistaken. I fell asleep on the couch that day. The couch is small, and with two people squeezed on it, it was easy to have physical contact."

Vivian's face slowly turned pale. "Carson... You're lying. I don't believe it. I don't believe a word of it."

Carson turned his head away coldly. "I'm not lying. If I liked you, why didn't I confess to you in these five years?"

Vivian's tears gushed more intensely.

Any woman rejected by the person she liked would be heartbroken. However, Vivian quickly realized that Carson was doing it on purpose.

He is just afraid he can't take care of me because he is in poor health,' Vivian thought.

She had known him for many years, so she understood him.

"Carson, I've never been bothered by your illness. If I were, I would have walked away from you five years ago," Vivian said calmly with a serious expression.

Carson frowned and looked at her deeply. For sure, he knew that she wasn't bothered, but he was.

"Vivian, you deserve a better man," Carson said.

Vivian was certain that it was why he rejected her.

Therefore, she wasn't going to let him have his way. She pouted and snorted. "Stop pretending to be indifferent toward me. No one will be there for you after I leave. Carson, I'm telling you seriously that I won't leave you. I'll stay by your side until you're willing to accept me."

Brian replied, "I came with my girlfriend to visit her brother."

Daisy immediately opened the door for him with a flattering look on her face. She whispered to Grace, "Why didn't you tell me you and Mr. Francis have made up?"

Grace couldn't be bothered to explain and followed Brian in.

When she saw Carson, she felt very guilty. "I was too anxious during this period and made you work so much."

Carson said, "Grace, don't blame yourself for everything. No job is easy. if I were to idle around all day, what's the difference between me and a good-for-nothing?"

Daisy was unhappy to hear that but did not dare to say anything because Brian was there.

If Brian weren't around, she would have taken the opportunity to suggest that Carson should rest at home while Grace could earn money to support them.
