"Nina, is not that man out there rich?" Doris looks at Nina Morrison with her bright eyes. Unexpectedly, this wench looks like a stubborn girl is so clever to get such a rich man.
"Aunt Lauren, I just want to pack my things." Nina Morrison heads down to her room. She hates Doris's tone.
"Grace, you are useless! You see, even Nina can catch rich people. You are prettier than her and you are better than her. Why can't you get along with a rich man?" Doris says.
"Who knows where she gets her luck from?" Grace touches her long hair. The money Lucien Gray gave her last time has been gambled all away by her. Or she will not come back to this slum house!
Leaning obliquely against the door, Grace holds her hands to her chest and looks at Nina Morrison, who was packing, "Are you moving in to live with Lucien Gray?"
"Live with Lucien Gray" sounds harsh. Nina Morrison bites her lip, feeling a little sad.
If it is possible, she would like to be like other ordinary girls, living a normal life. She would not like to be a secret mistress, being used and bullied all day long!
If possible, maybe she can see Andrew again. Maybe she will marry him and have a beautiful baby, living a happy life rather than being despised like today!
Seeing Nina Morrison not talking, Grace turns her eyes and comes up with an idea.
"Nina, can I come and see you often?"
"Of course you can." Nina Morrison is touched. She has not expected that Grace will still miss her.
The phone in the jeans pocket suddenly rings.
