Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband

Chapter 269 Superstar's Contract Wife

"What's wrong?" Adam asked, his expression turning pained.

Claire licked her lips-a small, nervous movement that didn't escape Adam's sharp eyes. His gaze followed every sweep of her tongue, and he found himself parting his own lips unconsciously.

"I'm worried..." Claire began hesitantly, slowly lifting her eyes to meet Adam's. He quickly composed himself, shifting his gaze from her lips to her face and pressing his lips into a thin, disapproving line.

"That we left Daniel alone in the bathroom after you beat him to a pulp," she continued, her voice tinged with worry. "What if... What if Daniel goes public, ranting about you attacking him?"

She was concerned; after all, Adam had dragged her away without a second thought, leaving Daniel alone. Knowing Daniel's true nature, Claire was panicking. He was capable of doing anything for his own benefit and stooping to any filthy level to get what he wanted. But Adam was fuming with jealousy, his anger intensifying as he realized Claire was still worried about her ex-boyfriend. The thought only made his frustration grow.

However, unbeknownst to Claire, after Adam had taken her away with him, his bodyguards had entered the bathroom. They threatened Daniel with dire consequences if he uttered a word about what had happened. They offered him a large sum of money as compensation-just the usual way they handled these types of situations, knowing well the weak temperament of the superstar.

"You're still thinking about him, huh?!" he snapped, his voice laced with accusation, making Claire furrow her brows.

She narrowed her eyes as she stared at the knucklehead superstar. Here she was, thinking about his clean image and doing everything possible to keep him out of trouble, yet he didn't hesitate to blame her at every turn.

"Adam, I'm worried about what will happen if your fans find out you beat a man in a hotel bathroom and left him bloodied! Do you even realize the consequences?" she shot back, her frustration boiling over. First Daniel, and now Adam-everyone seemed to take her for granted.

"And what if they find out I beat that man because I found my wife locked alone in that bathroom with him?!" he mocked, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

Claire's eyes stung

eyes stung with tears as she glared at him. How easily these men judged her character, reducing her to nothing but baseless assumptions. She was done done explaining herself, done defending her intentions. No more.

"Okay, if I'm the problem, then I should leave," she said, her voice trembling with a mix of hurt and self-respect. "You don't have to bear the humiliation because of me," she shot back, her words sharp as she stormed off toward the room where her belongings and suitcases were kept.

"Fuck!" Adam cursed loudly, raking a hand through his hair in frustration. He hadn't imagined things would escalate like this. He hadn't imagined the situation turning out like this. He was upset, but he hadn't expected Claire to cry or get so upset with him. with

expecting luxury everywhere.

As he entered, he found Claire frantically gathering her things, shoving them into her suitcase with trembling hands.

"What are you doing?" he asked in a cold voice, standing casually with his hand in his pants pocket.

But Claire was too upset to respond. She continued moving around the room, gathering her things and stuffing them into her bag.

Adam stared at her for a moment, his frustration growing. After a few seconds, he sighed heavily, trying to calm himself. He stepped toward her, taking her hand to stop her from packing.

"Stop it, Claire," he said, his voice softer this time.

"What's your problem, Adam?" Claire retorted, raising her voice as she pulled with all her strength to free her hand from the arrogant superstar's firm grip. "You can't stand to see me, and now you don't even want me to leave you, alone?!"

Adam took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. He was a superstar, worshipped by millions of fans. The arrogance had become second nature to him. He didn't tolerate tantrums from anyone, but the world had always been expected to put up with his. However, this feisty woman-his wife-who was fuming in anger, had him silent for the first time in his life.

Wait... no, it wasn't the first time.

Claire had always been like this with him. When she worked with him, she used to throw orders at him as if he weren't the celebrity but she was. And to his surprise, he never felt offended. What the hell was that about?

Without thinking, Adam pulled her closer. Claire was startled and almost stumbled into him. Their noses nearly touched, their faces inches apart. Claire's sweet breath brushed against Adam's lips, and he sucked in a sharp breath, feeling the temptation she unknowingly carried with her and she didn't even realize it.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Claire's eyes widened as she realized the most handsome man she had ever seen was so close to her. Their breath mixed, their bodies flush against each other, and Claire felt her pulse quickened. Her throat went dry at the sudden proximity. His intoxicating scent invaded her senses as the warmth of his body seeped into hers, making her dizzy, setting her body on fire. She swallowed hard unconsciously.

"I never said those things, sweetheart," he whispered, surprised to realize how breathless his own voice sounded.

Claire gritted her teeth, sensing the lie, and tried to pull away. But Adam didn't let go of her hand. Instead, he allowed her some space, knowing that the distance was good for both of them. It helped him retain his sanity and stop himself from doing something stupid. "I want you to stay. That's why I came here with you," he reasoned, his tone calm.

"Huh!" Claire snorted, rolling her eyes, which made Adam frown. He wasn't used to dealing with a woman's strop, yet he was still listening to her.

"But your actions say otherwise," she taunted. "Why don't you decide what you really want?"

Tightening his grip on her hand, Adam yanked her toward him with sudden force, and slammed her hard. against his chest. Claire gasped as she was startled, and before she could protest, he wrapped his arm
