The Contract Lover (Nina Morrison and Lucien Gray) novel Chapter 244

Nina Morrison holds the phone, listening to the hollow beeps. Her heart floats up and down, with sour mixed with sweet. After a while, she finds herself standing by the window for nearly half an hour.

There is a terrible hole in her heart. Her fingers slide on the phone’s screen. She finds the phone number of Lucien Gray. Hesitatingly, she doesn’t dare to dial the number.

What could she say if she calls? Say thank you? And then?

He’s about to get engaged to Jasmine Harris. On his emotional scales, she is, after all, less than Jasmine Harris.

There is no need!

Nina Morrison throws her phone away. Her heart is so upset like a field of weeds, she sits on the sofa, there is him on the sofa. She walks in the kitchen, there is him in the kitchen. She lies on the bed, and there is him on the bed!

Lucien Gray is everywhere, occupying all her minds.

Nina Morrison clutches her head crazily. If days keep going like this, she’s going crazy.

Nina Morrison grabs her bag and rushes out the door. She needs to breathe some different air!

Outside the apartment is a busy shopping street. Nina Morrison is going to get something to eat.

The phone rings, Nina Morrison’s heart neats. She opens her bag and takes out the phone.

It’s Troy Roger. Being disappointed, Nina Morrison smiles anyway and answers the phone, “Troy...Oh, no, Troy Roger, what’s up?”

“Nina, I’m on XX Road of Cagliari. Would it be convenient for you to come and see me?”

At a restaurant on XX road, Troy Roger and Nina Morrison sit opposite each other.

“Nina, I’m sorry. Abby ...She asks someone against you. I doesn’t know it until this morning.” Troy Roger wrestles with the words.

His amber eyes, with pain and embarrassment, hide from Nina Morrison’s vision.

Nina Morrison shakes her head, only to find she doesn’t know what to say.

After a long pause, she asks softly, “Troy Roger, do you love her? Do you love Abby Lewis?”

It is as if Troy Roger has been burned by coals, and his eyes shake, “Nina, you know exactly who I love.”

“Troy Roger, you...” Nina Morrison is about to speak when Troy Roger stops her with a wave of his hand, “Nina, Please let me finish.”

He keeps silent for a moment before slowly opens his mouth, “Abby and I have known each other for ten years, and she is my son’s mother .I would be disrespectful to her if I say I don’t love her. But I can’t deceive myself to say that I really have the affection which is between men and women for her. I love Abby, but it is the love between the family.”

Nina Morrison looks up at Troy Roger, her eyes are wet with tears. Her Troy, has always been a gentleman, so gentle, so affectionate, never lets her down.

If he tells Nina Morrison that he doesn’t love Abby Lewis, she’ll be devastated.

“Troy Roger, I don't know Abby Lewis, so I can’t say for sure what kind of person she is. But I’m sure of one thing. She loves you very much. She loves you very, very much.” Nina Morrison holds back tears and smiles as she looks at Troy Roger, “As an onlooker, I have no position to comment on your feelings. I only want to say something from the bottom of my heart: Cherish the present one.”
