Love Contract

Jazlyn and Aisha had been living in a five-star hotel in the center of A City the entire time. They had been posing as two journalists to guise their true identities. Their peers were also assigned different identities while they were staying at the hotel.

Aisha was happily humming a song as she walked through the corridors of the hotel.

"Boss, why did you come back so late?" Jazlyn got up from the bed and ran towards the living room. She asked with a cunning smile, "What did you do after the handsome guy took you away?"

"Haha!" Aisha crossed her arms and grinned complacently. "I won't tell you!"

"Did you do anything wrong?" Jazlyn asked while crossing her arms.

"Do you think I would be like you? Tell me what happened between you and Lucas!" Aisha said, with her hands on her hips.

"Nothing!" Jazlyn looked away as she recalled the entanglement she had with Lucas earlier. "He saved me after I was drugged that night. How dare he shame me for what happened and pester me!" she groaned. "Thinking of him makes me so angry!"

Aisha raised her eyebrows in surprise. "Really? He's not half bad, I see. If he could detoxify such a powerful toxin..." she trailed on her words.

"Boss!" Jazlyn was abashed with irritation. She glared at Aisha and shouted, "Boss, don't ask such nonsense.

Our job is not finished yet." "Don't worry! How can I forget our business? Calm down!" Aisha then sat on the sofa and tapped the space next to her. "Do you know who took me away tonight?" she asked. "The handsome guy?" Jazlyn pondered for a moment and answered, "He looks familiar."

"Archer Song." Aisha tapped her fingers on the sofa.

"Archer Song ?" Jazlyn was agog. "Is he really Archer Song? Right! It is him! I remember now."

"Damn straight," said Aisha as she nodded along.

"I should have remembered earlier! Last time I read the gossip about him and Frank Liang on the newspaper!" Jazlyn dabbed her thigh and asked, "Boss, did you approach him because of Frank Liang? So that you can catch Corbett in the process? Are you going to take advantage of him? That's awesome!"

Aisha neither frowned nor shook her head.

The two of them talked for a long time until Jazlyn yawned and said, "Boss, I'm going to hit the hay. I was wearing high heels the whole night. God, that was exhausting. I'd rather fight someone than wear those heels again!"

Aisha nodded along. "Alright, I'm going to bed, too."

Afterwards, the duo went back to their own bedrooms.

As she lay on the bed, Aisha tried to remember the unexpected kiss that Archer had mentioned. However, she couldn't.

Jazlyn had just gotten to her room and wanted to get some sleep, but Lucas's image was imprinted on her mind. So, she took out her phone and searched for any information she could find about him. He really was a doctor, and a famous specialist on cancer.

"Humph..." She snorted. She tossed the phone onto the sofa, and turned over. So what if he was an expert on cancer? Nothing was more important to her, than getting enough sleep.

The following morning, Aisha had gotten up early, and was planning to meet with Mary in the Kary Villa. Then, the two of them would drive to Z City and find out the complete truth of her birth.

With a sudden click, the other bedroom's door was opened. Seeing that Jazlyn was still fast asleep, Aisha shook her head in disbelief. She left a note for Jazlyn before leaving.

"Ah..." After a while, Jazlyn's head finally came out of the quilt. Her hair was ruffled into a complete mess. She sat up with her hands on the bed.

Although she hadn't fully opened her eyes, she felt that something was amiss. It seemed that someone had come in before she had the chance to wake up. Jazlyn immediately reached under her pillow for her pistol. She vigilantly stared out the window as she quietly got out of bed, holding the pistol at the ready.

"Damn it!"

When she searched every corner of her room, the only thing she found was a note left by Aisha on the table. Her face darkened as she read the contents of the note.

"I'm going to Z City today. You're sleeping like a log, so I didn't want to wake you up. Keep an eye out for that Japanese fellow."

In front of Kary Villa, Mary, and Aisha had already packed their bags and were ready to depart. When they were about to get into the car, they heard Jazlyn's anxious voice out of the blue. "Stop! Wait for a moment!" Jazlyn parked her car in front of the villa's gate. She poked her head out of the window from the driver's seat, and said, "Boss, wait for me!"

"What are you doing here?" Aisha scowled.

"I'll go with you to protect you." Jazlyn jumped out of her car, dressed in a tight, black leather jacket, looking quite formidable.

"Do I even need your protection?" Aisha rolled her eyes at her.

Before Jazlyn could respond, she heard two more cars stopping in front of the villa.

Archer's dashing face appeared as he opened the door of his car. He looked at Aisha, opened his arms, and walked forward with a smile on his face. "Oh, my darling! He pulled her into his arms and kissed her cheek.

Aisha was clearly enjoying his affection, and consequently, the other three were disgusted by their public display of affection.

On the other hand, Lucas stepped out of the second car. When he noticed that Jazlyn was present, he started laughing like a villain.

Looking at the man's face, Jazlyn shouted, "Why are you here again? Stop following me!"

"Why should I follow you?" Lucas glared at her. 'Tm here for Mary, okay? Don't flatter yourself!"

"Remember what you said. Don't follow me!" Jazlyn was obviously furious.

"I will definitely follow you. You need to be responsible for me," Lucas proudly declared as he shook his head in front of her.

"Do you want me to hit you again?" said Jazlyn. She waved her fist in front of him.

"Hey, have you finished your discussion?" William tapped the roof of his car with one hand and held Mary with the other arm. "If we don't set out now, we'll have to leave tomorrow morning."

"Of course! We should leave now!" Lucas added, "I'll go in Jazlyn's car! I don't care what you say. She has to be responsible for me!"

"Okay, let's go!" Jazlyn gritted her teeth before smiling sardonically. "I don't want to drive. Who doesn't want a free driver?"

"I didn't say I will drive!" Lucas said in surprise.

"You won't drive?" A devilish smile appeared on Jazlyn's lips, and an ominous aura emanated from her. She clasped her hands together, and cracked every knuckle on both of her hands. She roared, "You don' want to drive? Say that again?"

"What the hell... Are you planning to use violence again, woman? Are you some kind of brute? How dare you!" Lucas was taken aback, his face was wrinkled. He turned about and said to the others, "Keep a close eye on this one. If she does anything suspicious, please come and save me! Ah! Help! Somebody help!"

Unfortunately, before he could reach the end of his statement, he cried out in pain. It would seem that Jazlyn had twisted his arm behind his back.

She grunted, "My God, do you ever shut up? Are you going to drive for me or not? Answer me, now! Weren't you going to follow me? Hmm? If you're not going to drive, I'm going to break your arm!" "Ouch! Yes! Yes!" Lucas begged for mercy. He was completely subdued. "Of course I will drive! I'll be your driver! Just let go of me, you bitch!"
