"No, Dray, you can't..." Sky's voice choked, his eyes turning red in an instant.
Although he said Logan couldn't do it, he knew that he could say and do anything he wanted. Even his casual tone could make everything come true without any cold threats.
At this moment, the unease in his heart was even more overwhelming than when he said he was just a commodity.
"Yes, you know I can," the man said, towering over him, his large hand holding his small chin, admiring the panic in his eyes with a cold and stern expression.
The ambiguous atmosphere from earlier had long disappeared. Logan was never a good man.
Since it was destined that this man had to stay by his side, he would make the most of him. He would break his spine and crush him restless thoughts, making him obediently follow him as Mr. Li. No more greedy and despicable actions allowed.
Dray's slender fingers pinched Sky's slightly trembling chin, watching his emotions collapse bit by bit. He finally closed his eyes and let the panic and tears flow freely.
He knew Logan was right... he had no other choice. Even if it was just for his mother, he had to accept his conditions.
"Okay, I will try my best to play the role of Mr. Li. Master Li, our contract... continues."
After a long while, Sky's voice, filled with tears, finally broke the silence. A tear rolled down his cheek.
Dray's lips curved into a smile as he wiped away the tear with his slender fingers, cradling his trembling face and kissing him gently.
"Good boy, that's more like it, my dear husband."
*Dong dong*
Just then, a knocking sound came from outside the door.
"Young Master Li, Old Master Xander called from the hospital. He has urgent business with you," Eli, Old Master Xander's most trusted aide, entered the room.
Dray was currently pinning Sky down on the bed. To outsiders, their position seemed extremely ambiguous.
Eli's face briefly showed surprise upon entering, but quickly returned to a calm expression.
Dray's eyes darkened slightly as he gave Sky a deep look before getting off the bed.
The look was full of meaning, clearly indicating that he should be careful with his words and cooperate.
Dray casually picked up his phone, "Hello, Grandfather..."
Old Master Xander's voice came through the receiver, sounding weak but also angry.
"I heard my grandson-in-law almost got into trouble outside... Dray, how did you take care of Sky? How could you let him run out alone so late at night..."
"Grandpa, this was just an accident..." Dray took his phone and went to the balcony.
Now, only Eli and the extremely embarrassed Sky were left in the bedroom.
Just now, the man was still emotionally upset and had red eyes from being bullied by Dray.
But upon seeing Eli push open the door and enter, his face was now only a shy blush.
Sky pulled the blanket up to his chin, his eyes slightly unfocused, and pursed his lips as he nodded at Eli standing at the foot of the bed. "Mr. Xia, hello."
Sky had known Eli for a long time.
This young and promising man was adopted by Uncle Xander. Although he was an adopted son, he had always been Uncle Xander's right-hand man, taking care of his body and company affairs.
He was one hundred percent loyal to Old Master Xander and was someone that Dray could never buy off.
Sky's eyelashes drooped slightly as his gaze flickered. No wonder Dray had specially brought him back to act in this play...
Old Master Xander suspected their marital relationship and had sent Eli over to keep an eye on them.
If Dray didn't turn this fake play into a real one, he would never be able to fool Old Master Xander.
