The Contract Lover (Nina Morrison and Lucien Gray) novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52 Be Strong

They have breakfast. The atmosphere is quiet and depressing that Nina Morrison just drinks a bowl of porridge. She can't eat anything.

"I'm full. I'll pick up the chopsticks in a minute." Nina Morrison stands up to leave the table. She is exhausted and tired.

"Stop!" Lucien Gray says coldly, "Clean the house."

Nina Morrison looks up at Lucien Gray who is drinking the milk expressionlessly. There is a small fire burning deep in his eyes. Nina Morrison suddenly feels a little frightened. Now Lucien Gray, who is neither violent nor cold, has made her feel a little afraid.

She knows that he is holding her father's life in his hands so she has to be good. She nods and asks, "Is there anything else to do?"

Lucien Gray ignores her at all. He stands up and puts down the unfinished breakfast and goes to the bedroom. He sees Nina Morrison as air.

After that, his attitude towards Nina Morrison is even more alienated. His dark eyes are always filled with thoughts. Even when he is sitting in the sun, he is covered with a layer of cold.

Nina Morrison is relieved. That's good. He won't harass her anymore. They live together but are thousands of miles away from each other. It's good to keep distance with Lucien Gray. Nina Morrison is content with such days.

Nina Morrison does housework actively. Her dad's operation is coming. She must not offend Lucien Gray during this period. She stoops and is busy cleaning the windows in the room with a rag. Her back hurts.

Pregnant women should bend down as little as possible and not climb high. But she does both.
