The Contract Lover (Nina Morrison and Lucien Gray) novel Chapter 151

"Young master, wash Miss Morrison first, and bind up her wound!" Paige wipes her tears and walks over.

Young master is brought up by her, like her own son. Seeing young master and Nina being like this, she also feels upset.

When Nina wakes up, she suddenly feels that she suddenly aged 10 years, as if she had a very long dream and had walked a very long way.

There is a dim lamp on the bedside table. Lucien fell asleep lying down by her bed.

His hands are heavily bandaged. His brow furrow tightly, as if something bad is happening to him in his dream.

Nina's forehead is also wrapped with thick bandages that she can't sleep well. She turns to face the window. She does not want to see Lucien's face.

Nina's rolling over immediately wakes up Lucien.

"Nina, are you awake? You are finally awake!" Lucien is excited to hold Nina's hand and says, "You have been sleeping all day and night."

Nina just wants to get rid of Lucien's hand, but finds something wrong!

She sees Lucien's lips moving as if he is talking to her. However! She could not hear what he is talking about!

A great fear hangs over Nina. She curls up and retreats to the corner of the bed, looking at Lucien in horror.

Lucien thinks that Nina is still afraid of him, so he moves lightly and puts Nina's hand tightly on his face. His bloodshot eyes are filled with guilt and remorse, and he says, "Nina, I'm sorry! I am not human! Hit me!" He raises Nina's hand up and hits hard to his face!

Nina, however, screams and draws back her hand! She find out she is deaf! She will never hear a sound again!

Thinking that Nina is afraid of him, Lucien holds Nina into his arms tightly and says softly, "Nina, it is my fault… it's all right… I will never do this to you…do not be afraid."

Nina knows Lucien is talking to her, and the heat of his breath sprayed on her neck. Lucien hugs her tightly, she can feel the vibration of his throat, but she cannot hear any sound!

That is... good. As long as she closes her eyes, she can lose touch with the world. Just close her eyes and Lucien will disappear...

Nina curls herself more tightly in the quilt, keeping her eyes closed, does not speak, nor move. Like a dead wood.

The ashtray in the living room is full of cigarette butts.
