Only Mr. Zack's Contract Wife

Two weeks

"Grandfather heard you're getting married in the near future Yan?" the question from Victor's mouth was quite striking Bryan's heart.

Victor doesn't usually come to visit Bryan's private house. Especially at night like this, usually Victor has been sitting relaxed in a rocking chair.

"Know where?" bryan's question deliberately sounds like a trivialization of who Victor really is.

"This kind of behavior that Grandpa missed for a few weeks" Victor said with an anxious smile at his second grandson.

The old man had always longed for Bryan's arrogant attitude which always seemed to demean him. However, these few days Bryan did not come to Victor's house.

"You could have been Cake." Bryan said this time accompanied by a slightly smirked smile.

"Don't take your grandson's cigarette! I'm lazy to take you to a specialist." Bryan screeched as Victor's hand tried to grab his pack of cigarettes lying on the table.

"You always thought I was an old man helpless." Victor's face seemed to quip Bryan's behavior.

"To be honest with me, what's Grandpa here for?" finally Bryan asked what Victor was coming for.

"Every Grandpa meets you, Grandpa's desire is still the same thing" Victor said, smoking a cigarette with a deep suction, like trying to drain fatigue in the smoke he released.

"Zack." That's just Bryan's response.

Bryan had been trying to find the whereabouts of Zack, but still his efforts are nil.

"Find him first, and you're married." Victor's greatest wish in life is to meet his first grandchild who has long disappeared from Victor's family.

"I won't marry anyone." said Bryan, who didn't want to marry Friska.

"Based on the dissident's son." said Victor flatly, the old man felt that Bryan was against his will.

"It's not that I'm a Kek dissident, I just don't love Friska" Bryan told Victor.

Bryan hopes Victor will help him escape David's ridiculous matchmaking entanglement.

"Make sure Zack comes to see me, I'll cancel all your crazy papah plans." said Victor in a relaxed tone.

Hasn't Bryan been trying to track down Zack for the past five years?

But, still Zack still he did not find.

"You gave me a very difficult choice Mr. Victor." said Bryan.

To be honest in his heart Bryan wanted Victor's help without having to barter with Zack's whereabouts. Because, all of that is very unlikely to be able to fulfill Bryan.

"When has my granddaughter had the guts like this?" victor's words sounded condescending to Bryan.

Victor has long been famous for educating his family. All provisions and choices are always rigid, everything must be subject to the rules of the Victor game.

"Grandfather knows, your marriage is just a tool for your father to get all the parts of Victor's family. But, it's not that easy Yan."

"I know Kek." cut Bryan feeling like he didn't want to look greedy in Victor's eyes.

Bryan was always afraid that Victor would consider him the same as David who always thirsted for the Victor family's share of the treasure.

"Two weeks of your time, son." said Victor as he moved from the sofa on the back porch of Bryan's house.

"You're really, really, cake. How is it possible to find Zack within two weeks?" bryan protested with a frown.

"Brarti you're ready to live with Friska." that's Victor's only response after hearing Bryan's protest.

"No!" cry Bryan.

"I'll make sure my brother Zack, I'll take him to Victor's house." threatened Bryan with a tinge of his faith.

Then Victor just smiled at Bryan, and left Bryan alone on the back porch.
