Jocelyn was confused by the sudden turn of events.

She did not understand why Aren would interpret her apology as she wanted to terminate the contract.

Jocelyn was shocked, unable to reply to him just yet. But the silence from Jocelyn made Aren believe that he was right in thinking so.
Aren grabbed Jocelyn’s arm in exasperation. “Our engagement has been announced. It’s too late for you to regret now.”

“Don’t think about leaving before the three-year contract is up.”

At this moment, Aren was like an angry lion. The flames in his eyes burned Jocelyn’s eyeballs.

“That’s not what I mean,” Jocelyn said defensively.

She wanted to get rid of her family, so this engagement was going to be a big help to Jocelyn.

In addition, she knew very well that she wasn’t in a position to say no because of the power and wealth Aren possessed.

‘The difference in wealth and power between the two of them made it clear that only Aren had a say in this contract marriage.
Therefore, no matter what, Jocelyn wouldn’t take the initiative to suggest terminating the contract, because it’d be to no avail.
She thought that Aren knew this better than her, but looking at the scene, she realized that Aren thought differently from her.
“You should know that no matter what, I won’t be the one to end our relationship.”

Jocelyn looked into Aren’s eyes and said seriously.

“Also, can you get Mr. Luke to stop the car by the roadside? I really have something very important to do. Can you return my phone to me?”
Jocelyn extended her palm. On her fair palm, there were traces of bruises, probably caused by the gangsters.

Aren gritted his teeth.

This woman always had a way of making him angry.

Before Jocelyn could get her hands on the phone, Eliza called again.

The piercing ringtone broke the silence in the car and attracted Jocelyn’s gaze.

“My friend is looking for me. Please give me my phone. I need to talk to her.”

Jocelyn pushed her palm forward again.

However, instead of returning the phone to her, Aren hit the off button and stuffed the phone into his pocket in front of Jocelyn.
“As my fiancée, what you should do now is accompany me to the hospital, not to see your so-called friend.”

“Don’t forget I’m your husband,” Aren added to himself, even if the marriage was just a contract.

“Don’t park. Go straight to the hospital,” Aren ordered Luke, who was driving.

What Aren said made Jocelyn unable to refute. The cold aura and pressure exuded from him made Jocelyn unable to sit still.
‘Wasn’t he very cold to her just now? Then why was he saying these ambiguous words to her again?

Moreover… Jocelyn stole a glance at Aren’s well-defined side-face. He seemed to be angry. Why? Was it because of her?
Questions after questions crowded into Jocelyn’s mind, making her unable to find an answer.

A moment later, Jocelyn fidgeted uncomfortably as she looked at the car driving in the city center.

“Can you give me back my phone now?” Jocelyn mentioned the phone again and dropped her gaze to Aren’s pocket.

“Ican go to the hospital with you, but I should tell my friend so that she won’t worry about me.”

“Friend?” At the mention of the word, Aren was suddenly on alert.

“What kind of a friend, man or woman? Why do you keep mentioning this friend in front of your fiancé?”

Out of blue, Aren flew into a fury again. “Do you want me to remind you again what your identity is now?”

Aren leaned closer to Jocelyn.

His tall body made her feel extremely oppressed, forcing Jocelyn to back off to the corner of the car.

The distance between them was getting closer and closer. Aren’s body was almost on top of Jocelyn’s.

Jocelyn used her hands to press against Aren’s chest, wanting to push him away from her. However, Aren was like a mountain, unmoved.
“You can’t be so unreasonable! What does my identity have to do with me talking to my friend?”

Hearing her words, Aren got more solemn.

“You think it doesn’t matter?” He sneered.

Aren’s gaze drifted from Jocelyn’s large, bright eyes to her red and juicy lips.

Without warning, Aren lowered his head and sealed Jocelyn’s red lips with his..
