Daniel lowered his head and pressed his lips over hers while holding his phone near his ear.
It wasn't until he got through to Nicole that he released Janet from his kiss. "Nicole, I'm coming to pick you up," he said.
But Nicole replied in a low voice, "No, thanks. I will go home later."
"Nicole, be careful what you do, and before you do it, think it twice!" said Daniel. He lay on one side of the bed beside Janet, holding her with his free arm.
He was also thinking that only Sven and Nicole were staying in the apartment that evening, just like Jane and himself were. It wasn't that simple!
"... Um, okay, I see. Go to bed early," said Nicole. After uttering these words, Nicole hung up the phone.
At that moment, she had been in a passive state, whilst Sven, who seemed to be a little tipsy from all the booze he had drunk, kissed her wildly.
"Sven, you're drunk. Let me go!" said Nicole. She pushed Sven away, who was pressing on her body.
Sven then immediately looked up at her, and said, "I'm sober as a priest on Sunday. Nicole, listen, I'll allow you to go back to America tomorrow, and I'll also give you... a month at most to make your decision, at most. You'll then change your workplace and come back here, and if you don't want to work in C Country, you can also choose to work in A Country. After all, Chuck has a hospital there, where I can work."
At present, Sven didn't have any plans to further his career abroad, but if Nicole liked America so much, he would consider moving and working there for her.
"Um... I understand," said Nicole. She again tried to push him away.
Sven got off her, turned over, and then tightly held her in his arms. "Now, I want you to become my woman," he said. However, he still had to ask her if she also wanted it, because it was not an insignificant matter after all...
Nicole glanced at Sven, who had now closed his eyes. In fact, if Sven had ever forced her to do it tonight, she would've refused him straight away.
But now, he endured the pain, and asked of her opinion on the matter...
"I don't trust you," softly whispered Nicole. She was being held tightly in his arms.
They had met many times before, but they had seldom talked to one another, and Nicole had never paid any close attention to Sven.
But this time, all happened in a sudden. It felt strange, because now Nicole seemed to not be disgusted with Sven when he got closer to her...
Her ex-boyfriend had been in a relationship with her for four years, but he had eventually cheated on her because he couldn't stand her fuddy-duddy ideas any longer...
"Nicole, both father and mother* are keeping an eye on you, and if I just want to flirt or sleep with a woman, I won't do that with you." If Sven just wanted to casually date a woman, there were a lot of them out there who were more than willing to play with him; he wouldn't have gone through all the trouble to convince Harry's daughter to date him.
Sven's words reassured Nicole a bit and, after all, their family members often got together, so Sven would never dare to deceive her.
Nicole, who was holding Sven's large palm, buried her face in his chest, and then with a muffled voice, she said, "But, I'm afraid..."
Sven understood that she was afraid, because she had never even been kissed by a man before today.
He quickly turned over and again kissed Nicole's mouth, leading her into another whole world with his sweet, caring love.
At about midnight
Daniel and Janet now stood in front of the old house, pushing each other around. Daniel had wanted to send Janet to her own house, but Janet didn't let him come in.
They were locked in a stalemate.
"If you won't let me enter your house, you'll have to leave with me," warned Daniel. He was very disappointed, because he wanted to be held accountable for Jane and she just kept refusing him over and over again.
If Janet continued to refuse him like this, he would then have to take matters into his own hands, and directly go to her house to propose her for marriage, without her consent.
"I don't want you to enter my house, or leave with you either!" said Janet.
Daniel didn't want to argue with her anymore, so he dragged her into his car again. After he helped her fasten her seat belt, he decided to call Samuel and tell him about what had happened.
When she saw that Daniel's phone screen lit up, Janet knew that he was about to call her father.
She immediately grabbed his phone out of his hand and cancelled the call. "I'll call Samuel and I'll tell him personally," she said.
