Contract Marriage: The Replacement Groom

He called his doctor to the house and his doctor told him he was only stressed and that nothing was wrong with him. The old
man didn believe his doctor and that was when he started to suspect that enemies were lurking around them.
He didn want to alert the enemies, so he started to investigate things from the dark. His granddaughters wedding was fast
approaching and she was extremely happy about it, so he didn want to ruin her happiness by revealing these things to her, and
for that, she had to find out in such a heartbreaking way.
”S–sorry, ch–child, Im s–orry– ” the old mans dimmed eyes slowly closed and the hand on her cheeks was about to fall off when
she grabbed it.
”N–no, no, grandpa, please don do this to me, grandfather, I beg you please... g–grandfather... ” She slowly put his hand down
and gently patted his body in an attempt to wake him up.
”Grandpa! ” She called again while shaking him gently.
”Old man Lee! ” She patted his cheeks.
When hes sleeping and she sneaks into his room, she would pat his face like this and call him, old man Lee. He would smile
before slowly opening his eyes to ask her what she wanted.
She only calls him by his name when she needs something, so she was expecting him to smile at her and ask her what she
wanted, but her expectation was dashed!
”Old man Lee...grandfather!!! ” She started to shake him vehemently, but still, he showed no signs of waking up.
”Christine!! ”
”Guards!!! ”
”Maya!!! ”
”Aunt Martha!! ”
”Uncle Wong!!!! ”
But nobody came. Realization dawned on her that she was alone, all alone with her grandfather in the whole sitting room with no
one to help.

She searched around the place with her blurry eyes, looking for anything that could help her and she spotted the telephone.
She laid her grandfather on the cold floor and stood up. Jeslyn hurried to the telephone while stepping on her gown numerous
times, almost falling.
On reaching the phone, she hurriedly picked it up, placed it on her right ear, and started to punch the ambulance number she
had committed to her memory.
After punching in the numbers, she was expecting to hear an indication that her call was connecting or hear a voice from the
other end, but nothing came even after trying it a few times. Her chaotic mind told her to check the wires and when she did, it
was cleanly cut!
Jeslyn slammed the telephone on the table. She was about to hurry back to her grandfather when she tripped over her gown and
fell, hitting her head on the edge of the center table.
She felt a terrifying pain in her head but still managed to stand up. Dizziness washed over her and she swayed. But thanks to the
table she held for dear life, she didn fall.
She stayed like that for a while before she stood up and staggered towards her grandfather with blood trailing down her broken
forehead.
While searching the couch they sat on earlier, she saw her phone, the damned phone she had been looking for, and hurriedly
called the hospital for an abundance, not having the time to think of how her phone which was supposed to be missing suddenly
appeared out of thin air.
....
At the hospital....
Jeslyn could be seen sitting on a bench, glancing at the operation room every 2 seconds. She would stand up and pace around
for a while then return to her bench to sit.
Her exercise continued like that for five hours until the operation room door dinged open.
She rushed to the doctors who walked out with their nose masks on and asked in a frantic voice: ”Doctor, how is my
grandfather? ”

The doctor sighed and shook his head, ”Im sorry, young Miss, your grandfather couldn make it. The poison had destroyed his
organs and... Miss Jeslyn! ”
The doctors immediately supported her limp body before she touched the floor and helped her into a VIP room.
Jeslyn opened her eyes to a white room and heard a beeping sound. She turned to her right where the beeping sound was
coming from and saw the monitor producing the sound. That was when she registered she was in the hospital.
She tried to sit upright but felt a needle pricking her wrist. She looked down at her wrist and it was an injection needle connected
to a thin pipe. She sighed before sitting with her head resting on the wall.
It so happened that the TV screen in front of her was on and a funeral scene was being played.
She frowned when she saw a few familiar faces, and then the ones that hit her right on the core were Ray and Christine.
Christine was being held by Ray. Now thats not her problem. However, why is she seeing Christine crying so much while looking
at... wait, her grandfathers picture?!
At that moment, Jeslyns mind turned cold. Shiver ran down her spine as memories flooded her mind. She forcefully pulled out
the needle from her wrist, totally disregarding the fact that the drip was not finished.
She pulled away the white cover from her body and got down from the bed.
Taking her first step towards the door, pain hit her hard in the head but she ignored it and staggered out of the room barefooted.
While she was walking along the corridors, everyone she bumped into either gave her weird looks or pointed fingers at her, yet,
that wasn her concern. She was too carried away to notice anyone.
She got to the road but found no taxi. However looking up, the billboards were playing her grandfathers funeral.
Inside a black inconspicuous car speeding across the road, Rex could be seen trying to force the groom to tell him who he got
married to, but the groom was adamant about keeping mum.
”Brother, so you aren going to tell me who you got married to? Your lil brother wants to know. Tell me and I promise Ill zip my lips.
” He made a lip-sealing gesture.
The groom sneered, ”sure, Ill resurrect from the dead if a parrot like you could keep shut for two minutes. ” He answered with his
eyes closed.

”Aai, brother, don be like that. I might be a parrot but– ”
”Screech!!! ”
”What the f*ck! ” Rex cursed after hitting his head on his brothers palm, thanks to the driver holding brake without warning.
Rex was about to hit his head on his brothers shoulder, but the groom was quick enough to stop his head with his palm.
”Hey, what the hell is wrong with you?! If you can drive them you are fired! ” Rex yelled at the driver in frustration.
”Im sorry young master, it wasn my fault, a crazy woman ran into the road. ” The driver apologized.
”Then run her over. ” Came the grooms annoyed voice.
ed at the phone before he wound down the tinted window and threw the phone out, then closed his eyes and rested his head on
the headrest.
Rex stared wide-eyed at him. Whats wrong with this devil? That phone was just custom-made and sent to him yesterday!
Even though his eyes had started to bore holes into the villain, he refused to spare him a glance.
”Even though you threw my phone away, I have already seen everything. It says that the D-list celebrity, Jeslyn Lee killed her
grandfather because— ”
At the mention of her name, Jeslyn who had not been paying attention to the people sitting in the back seat peeked her ears. On
hearing the words that followed, she didn know how she found the strength to go against her weak mental state and responded.
”Mister, I appreciate the fact that you were kind enough to give me a lift, Ill be alighting from here, thank you... stop the car. ” She
said to the driver.
The groom who had his eyes closed all these while suddenly opened his eyes when he heard her words.
The minute the car was stopped, he turned to look at Rex and ordered, ”get out. ”
”Huh? ” Rex who heard the words turned his gaze from the lady sitting in the front seat to the man sitting beside him.
He had thought his brother was telling the lady in front to get out but was stunned when he met those emotionless eyes. Not that
his eyes ever held emotions though.

”Thank you for the ride, ” Jeslyn said from the front seat as she was unbuckling her seat belt.
”Not you, young Miss. Rex, get down. ”
Jeslyn was taken aback by that voice. She had heard that voice somewhere but can recollect where she heard it from. Her mind
was still clouded and in total disarray with all the chaos in her life that she couldn make her mind to focus.
She turned to look at the person but couldn see much as the car was dark and he had his eyes closed with the back of his head
resting on it.
”Brother, you want me to get down? ” Rex pointed at himself.
”Hmm, now. ”
”In the middle of– ”
”You want me to pull you out? ” He asked with a curved brow.
”Hehehe... of course not, Ill get down, Ill get down. ” Rex swallowed his sorrow and opened the car door.
The car zoomed off before he even got to close the door and he was very sure it was the command from that demon.
Inside the car, Jeslyn sighed and said: ”Thank you, mister, but you really didn have to do that. That place is dangerous and there
have been multiple reports of bad things happening there lately. ”
”Hell be fine. ” He uttered with his eyes closed.
”Oh, ” she answered and shut her mouth. She looked out the window to see if she could see him but couldn .
...
The black car stopped at a cemetery and from where the car stood, they could see people in black standing in front of a grave.
”Thank you, mister. ” Jeslyn offered her thanks and got out of the car and started to run unsteadily towards the people.
The driver was about to start the car when he heard that emotionless voice.
”Hold on. ”
