Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife Chapter 54: Must Not Lose (1)

This unexpected encounter sowhat caught Gu Nuan off guard, but she quickly cald herself down.

As the guests who were getting off at the seventeenth floor exited the elevator, the doors automatically closed. Wa’s mother stood in the elevator, her mind in a haze. Seizing the opportunity, Gu Nuan quickly walked away, maintaining a normal deanor, and ducked into the restroom.

Wa’s mother exclaid in realization and hurriedly pressed the open button on the elevator. Once the doors opened, she looked outside several tis but, regrettably, did not see any suspicious figures.

Strange, where did the person go?

Wa’s mother wondered if she was seeing things.

"Hey, are you getting out or not? If you’re getting out, then hurry up!"

The people inside the elevator saw her persistently pressing the elevator button and urged her impatiently.

Wa’s mother could only retract her head, feeling dejected.

The elevator continued to descend, but Wa’s mother’s heart pounded uncontrollably, feeling uneasy.

This hallucination of seeing Gu Nuan terrified her.

How could Gu Nuan be here?

Hadn’t Yishan said? This place isn’t accessible to anyone but the wealthy. How could Gu Nuan, with her plain appearance, get into such a place?

Wa’s mother pondered back and forth but couldn’t understand it. However, if she said she was dreaming and suddenly dread of Gu Nuan, why would she dream of her here?

It was really like seeing a ghost!

The elevator stopped at the parking garage on the second basent level.

Wa Zicong, who had co down earlier to get the car, drove it near the elevator doors and rolled down the window. Seeing his mother, he opened the car door.

As if sleepwalking, Wa’s mother continued walking forward and didn’t even notice her son standing not far in front of her.

It was not until she almost walked past her son that Wa Zicong had no choice but to call out to her, "Mom—"

Wa’s mother snapped back to reality, turned around, and saw her son and the car.

"Mom, why are you alone?" Wa Zicong asked.

"The elevator was too crowded to fit everyone. Shanshan let co down first," Wa’s mother said.

Wa Zicong let his mother get into the car first, although he felt his mother was acting a bit strange earlier.

Wa’s mother got into the car.

Mother and son together waited for Yishan to co down from upstairs.

Wa Zicong said to his mother, "Mom, next ti I will bring you here again."

Originally, they had planned to eat leisurely upstairs while enjoying the view. However, an unexpected phone call had disrupted all their plans.

Wa’s mother was very considerate of her son, "You’re busy with work, focus on your work. Whenever we eat doesn’t bother . Rember, we used to wait for your dad to co back from working late into the night. We’re not afraid of eating late, just afraid of not eating at all."

Wa Zicong naturally felt good that his mother understood the nature of his work. However, on one hand, he felt vaguely uneasy. He rembered what his mother had said in the morning: Zicong, earning money is certainly important, but you can’t neglect yourself.

Moreover, it was clear to him and his mother that pleasing Yishan, who ca from a wealthy family, was much more important than doing a good job at work.

Wa’s mother, unaware of her son’s expression in the front seat, continued to prattle on with words completely different from those of morning, "There’s a saying, it’s easy to escalate from simplicity to luxury but impossible to return to the old days. You understand , right?"

Hearing her words, Wa Zicong asked, "Mom, is it sothing about ho—"

"Everyone knows you’re going to marry a wealthy heiress. One after another, people who haven’t contacted us since your father died have been calling. Can we really say that your marriage might be called off?" hinted Wa’s mother, unable to hide her concern about losing face.
