"Really? Do I look awful?" Grace raised her hand and touched her cheek.
"That's right. Your face is so pale. There's no color at all. What's wrong? Why don't you sleep a little longer? I'll accompany Austin," Jasmine offered.
Grace shook her head and forced a smile. "I'm fine. I might have caught a cold. It was chilling outside."
Jasmine asked worriedly, "Are you sure you're fine?"
"Yeah, sure," Grace assured her.
"Alright, then. I'll leave her to you," said Jasmine.
Grace looked at Austin and closed her eyes in sorrow.
Her phone suddenly rang. Grace took it out and checked. It was Justin, whom she had not contacted for a long time.
"Hello? Justin?" Grace pressed the answer button.
Over the phone, Justin hesitated for a while before asking, "Grace, how are you?"
Justin's words were simple, but Grace could no longer hold back her tears. They fell.
Even though she tried hard to control herself, Justin could still hear her soft sobbing.
"Grace, where are you?" Justin asked.
Grace cried bitterly. "Justin, I'm in the hospital. Austin's sick..."
Justin's heart tightened. "Which hospital? I'll be right there!"
Justin hung up the phone and arrived not long after.
He was breathing hard, looking like he had run up the stairs.
Panting, he asked, "What illness does Austin have? Where's Brian?"
Grace covered her mouth and said slowly, "Leukemia."
Justin was stunned. "How could this be? What about Brian? Doesn't he know?"
Grace did not want to talk about Brian now because it reminded her of what she had heard outside the study.
Grace stared at a certain place with a blank gaze. "Justin, is there any other way than a bone marrow transplant?"
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have let you be with him," said Justin heavily.
Grace looked at him in surprise. "You... you know about that?"
Justin nodded. "Sharon is my sister. How could I not know?"
Grace frowned in confusion. "What? Sharon?"
"You-you don't know?" Justin gaped at her. He suddenly realized they might not be discussing the same thing.
'Perhaps, she still doesn't know about Brian and Sharon,' Justin thought.
"Justin, what are you talking about?" Grace asked.
Justin hesitated before taking out his phone and showed Grace the photos.
Falling For My Contractual Wife (Brian and Grace)
Grace watched the photos, thunder-struck.
'He was with another woman last night! Lying on the same bed as another woman!' Grace felt her heart ached.
Grace returned the phone to Justin with an ashy face.
She tried to control her expression and trembling fingers as she looked up at Justin.
"Justin, is there no other way to treat Austin's illness other than a bone marrow transplant?" Grace repeated.
Grace's eyes lit up. "Ask her for me, please."
