The Contract Lover (Nina Morrison and Lucien Gray) novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77 Never Pay Any Attention to Him

What's going on today? Why do all women warn her to stay away from their men?

Nina, calm down. She turns and looks at Kristin coldly. "I really want to stay away from Lucien. If you can find a way for Lucien to let me go, I will thank you very much!"

Then she leaves the uncomfortable bathroom with her head up and her chest up.

Kristin's face is red with anger. She grabs the green plant next to the washbasin and hits it hard on the ground. Nina is challenging her! She thinks Lucien loves her and dares to talk to her like this! It seems necessary for her to teach her a lesson!

Kristin picks up her cell phone and dials a number. She says a few words in a low voice.

The person on the other end of the phone replies, "don't worry. I promise it will be perfect." Kristin hangs up with a grim smile on her face.

Nina goes out of the bathroom and wants to breathe on the lawn.

There are too many people in the hall. She is bored by the hypocritical entertainment and the polite talk. She meets Lucien just around the corner. Next to him stands several men and women.

"Nina, come here." Lucien says. His tone is intimate but more like summoning a maid.

Everyone around Lucien is looking at Nina.

Nina mutters, "shit!" But she has no choice but to walk over slowly.

Next to Lucien stands a woman. She smiles, but there is a little disdain in her eyes. She asks Nina, "are you Miss Morrison? Lucien mentioned you just now. Are you Lucien's girlfriend?"

Girlfriend? Nina suddenly thinks the word sounds weird.

It's a good word with integrity. It's not as gloomy, wretched and humble as "mistress" sounds.

But unfortunately, Nina can't use the word.

Nina looks up at Lucien who is smiling. She doesn't answer yes or no. She is just silent.

Nina doesn't answer, so the woman is embarrassed. She has to change the subject.

Lucien's faint smile disappears completely. His eyes are full of displeasure.

They leave after a chat. Only Nina and Lucien are left.

Nina is still silent. She refuses to look at Lucien and is looking at the lawn. The breeze blows and the petals of the trees fall to the ground. It's beautiful and sad.

Lucien pinches her arm hard with her powerful arm. He asks her to turn around and face him. "Why didn't you talk just now?" His voice is cold.

"Say what? Should I say I'm not your girlfriend or I'm just a mistress?" Nina looks at Lucien and even smiles.

But the smile infuriates Lucien. "What? Is it disgraceful to be my mistress?" His arm is harder, and Nina feels her arm is about to break, but she stubbornly refuses to ask him to let go. She is still pinched by Lucien.

"How can it be disgraceful to be a mistress of President Gray? It's a great honor. Many women want to do it!" Nina looks down and says softly.

"Since you know, why does your expression show that you feel disgraceful?" Lucien lets go a little. He raises Nina's face to look at her.

Nina smiles angrily. It's a satire! President Gray is so naive that he can't hear people satirizing him!

Seeing Nina smile, Lucien's anger slowly dissipates. But his eyes are still sharp, and he says to Nina, "answer me. Why did you just show that expression?"

Nina frowns. "President Gray, does this question make sense? If you are bored, you can go to Kristin. She will be happy to talk to you in depth."

Lucien is a little surprised. He is staring at Nina. His voice is a little warm. "Kristin?"

Lucien's surprise makes Nina uncomfortable. She turns away and doesn't look at him. "Didn't you just have a deep conversation in the lounge and have a good time?"

"Haha..." Lucien suddenly raises his head and bursts out laughing. Nina bites her lips in panic. What is she doing? Why did she say so?

Sure enough, Lucien looks down at Nina. He has a smile on his face and a happy light in his eyes. "Nina, are you jealous?"
