President's Contract Wife

Nina messes up her hair and tries desperately to cover her side face.

As long as he doesn't recognize her.

She wants the waiter to come, but the ring on the table breaks. She dares not to speak. She tries desperately to wink at the waiter in the distance, hoping that he will notice her.

The waiter doesn't notice her, but Peter Johnson, who is diagonally opposite, gives her a strange look.

Nina doesn't dare call the waiter. She's looking forward to Peter Johnson and Lucien eating and leaving.

Nina lowers her head and pretends to drink, but she overhears Peter Johnson and Lucien.

"Lucien, haven't you found Nina yet?" The name Nina makes her shiver.

What's going on? Lucien is still looking for her? God, if he finds out that she is sitting next to him now, she will be miserable!

Nina's hands begin to shake, and the spoon in her hand rattles on the cup.

Nina is shocked by the knock again. She quickly peeps through the gap between the green plants. It seems that Lucien and Peter Johnson don't notice her.

Nina breaths a sigh of relief and listens attentively to Lucien's answer.

"No." Lucien replies coldly. But Nina recognizes the bitterness of his words.

She has a strange feeling. She doesn't know if it is sadness or uneasiness. Anyway, she's not feeling well.

Peter Johnson claps Lucien's hand. "She is not meant to belong to you. Forget her. Go to my bar for a drink in the evening. I'll pick you some of the most tender chicks." Lucien frowns. "I don't like the chicks in your bar. They all slept with you!"

Peter Johnson quips, "you've changed. Do you want to be a monk?"

Lucien gives a noncommittal hum.

Peter Johnson sits up and says seriously, "Lucien, are you guarding your virginity for Nina?"

"Go away!" Lucien punches Peter Johnson on the shoulder. Peter Johnson laughs, "I guessed it! You miss Nina so much!"

Nina sits by and listens to her name. She doesn't dare to look up or breathe hard. She is afraid that they will notice her.

Nina's cell phone rings! She hangs up quickly. But a second later it rings again! It's Grace. She may have something to tell her. But now Nina is afraid to answer the phone!

Nina's movements attract the attention of Peter Johnson, who is diagonally opposite. He looks at Nina and thinks the girl is familiar.

He looks at Nina carefully. Her heavy makeup blinds him to her features. Her popular, cheap golden wig and thick black eyeliner make him sure he does not know her. She is a complete stranger.

"Lucien. How is the cooperation between Gray Family and Germany in the development of new energy?" Peter Johnson and Lucien begin to whisper about their work.

Nina looks at the mute cell phone. There are 12 missed calls, all of which are Grace's. What should she do! Grace must have something to tell her. But now she's afraid to answer the phone. If she speaks, they will recognize her!

She wants the waiter to come. When she's out, she's going to call Grace to find out what happened.

Seeing a waiter passing by the table, Nina quickly grabs her. After a while the waiter finally realizes that she is going to pay.

This woman is really strange. Didn't she speak when she ordered just now? Why now she pretends to be a mute! The waitress brings Nina the bill in confusion.

At the sight of the bill, Nina's eyes immediately widen! More than $1000! It's too expensive!

That's impossible! When she ordered, she saw that these dishes are not so expensive!!

She asks the waitress with her movements. The beautiful waitress says haughtily, "the menu says pounds!"

Nina really wants to spit blood! She doesn't eat English food. Why mark the pound! If she knows this meal is so expensive, she will not come in! What should she do now? She's only $1000 and she's going to the hospital later. She doesn't have enough money! She wants to call her sister but doesn't dare speak. She wants to go out and get money, but the waitress doesn't let her go. She's afraid she'll run away!

Lucien and Peter Johnson at the next table frown at the same time and look at Nina.

Nina, with her back to them, is trying to ask the waiter to give her a discount! She has no idea Lucien and Peter Johnson have been watching her for a long time!

"It seems that the mute is short of money. The waitress doesn't let her go. The two are quarreling." Peter Johnson thinks it is funny. This pregnant woman is very interesting. She is very ugly, but he can tell from the dishes on her table that she has good taste. Lucien frowns. It's too noisy! He comes out to lunch with Peter Johnson and is interrupted by the woman.

Damned woman, don't come in without money! They both affect his mood too much!

Lucien snaps his fingers, "waitress!"

The waitress rushes over. The guests at this table look very noble. She must not offend them. Let the damned pregnant woman stand there! "What would you like, sir?"

A gold card is thrown on the table. Lucien reaches out a finger and impatiently points to Nina. "Use this card to pay for that woman."

This sentence clearly reaches Nina's ear. She is very surprised!

Lucien, you can help others! Sure enough, after a few months with me, your mind has improved a lot. Nina's getting complacent.

She hears Lucien say, "get her out of here. I have no appetite after seeing her."

Nina silently makes an expression of spitting blood for three liters in her heart!

Well, Lucien, the rich are bullies! I want to leave as soon as possible. You don't want to see me, and I don't want to see you! Nina mutters in her heart. She lowers her head and hurries out.

"Wait!" A tall figure stops in front of her! What? Nina is immediately anxious. She thinks she is leaving. She didn't expect she will be stopped!

"President Gray paid for you, don't you thank him?" Peter Johnson's voice comes from above.

Why are you nosy? Are you in love with Lucien? Nina curses Peter Johnson in her heart.

But it seems she has to face Lucien today!

She comes to Lucien pretending to be deaf and mute. She makes a deep bow to him.

Lucien doesn't look at her at all. He doesn't care about Nina's bow. Nina is secretly happy. Excellent! Thank god!

Suddenly a big hand reaches over and picks up the thin silver necklace on her neck. "Where did you get this?" Lucien's voice is cold.

This silver necklace is a birthday present from her father. Her family was very poor at that time. Her father was afraid of being chased by creditors, so he didn't dare to find a formal job. He made some money from odd jobs and bought the necklace for her. Simple style reposes father's endless love.

Nina has been wearing it around her neck. She is suddenly afraid. Does Lucien recognize the necklace?

What should she do! Nina is worried. Fine beads of sweat begins to ooze from the tip of her nose. She lowers her head to her chest. The hair on both sides covers most of her face. Nina suddenly thinks oxygen is thin.

"Is this necklace special?" Peter Johnson comes to see it, too. It's an ordinary silver necklace. It's not expensive and it's everywhere.

"Nothing. I've seen someone wear the same necklace." Lucien seems afraid that Peter Johnson will see his mind. He throws the necklace back to Nina's neck.

Nina is relieved. She makes a sincere bow to Lucien and is ready to leave.

She turns too quickly and runs into the waiter with the plate beside her.

A plate of hot soup is poured on Nina's arm!

"Ah!" She screams subconsciously! Nina responds quickly and covers her mouth in fear. She dares not to look up. She's afraid Lucien has heard her voice!

"I'm sorry, miss. I'll wipe it for you." The waiter is scared to apologize. This soup is just made. It's very hot. If the guest blames her, she will definitely be fired by the manager.

Nina is afraid to speak and stops the kind waiter. She wipes it with her hand and just wants to get out of here.

Nina feels someone behind her. She is worried. She knows her luck will not be so good! She knows God will get her in trouble!

Lucien's two long legs stand in front of Nina. He says coldly, "raise your head!"

That scream just now sounds too familiar. Although he knows it is impossible, he can't help doubting it!

Nina lowers her head. She desperately squeezes her eyes to let the tears come out. She wants Lucien to have trouble recognizing her!

But she can not shed tears. Lucien impatiently urges her, "huh?"

She still has some soup in her hand. She puts the soup on her eyes and pretends to be scared. She sobs and raises her head slowly.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
