Nina Morrison has a dream. In her dream, she seems to be a carefree girl. Her father's company is good and her mother doesn't die in a car accident. She is also the beautiful little princess. Andrew stands under the cherry tree and smiles at her. His smile is warmer than the spring breeze.
Nina Morrison suddenly wakes up. She hears Lucien Gray whispering something around her. She thinks he is awake and turns to look at him. She just wants to ask him what he said just now but she can see his eyes still closed. It turns out that he is talking in a dream.
Lucien Gray's eyes are closed tightly and his thick eyelashes are shaking uneasily. He is talking about something and his face is filled with fear and despair.
Nina Morrison is shocked. She has never seen Lucien Gray look so helpless and painful. He must be having nightmares.
She is about to wake him up but suddenly she hears him clearly. "Mommy, don't... Don't... Mommy, I'm very good. I'll listen to you. Don't..."
With a low scream, Lucien Gray's eyes suddenly open. He awakes from his nightmare.
Lucien Gray sees Nina Morrison looking at him in surprise and his thick eyebrows tighten sharply.
His hand suddenly pinches Nina Morrison's chin. "What did you hear just now?"
Nina Morrison is shocked by Lucien Gray's action. "I heard you have nightmares," she says.
"Did you hear what I shouted?" Lucien Gray's expression is even worse. His black eyes shine a sharp and cold light.
"Well, I didn't hear you clearly. I just woke up." Nina Morrison is not a fool. It seems that Lucien Gray is reluctant to let others hear his dream talk. She's not so silly as to tell the truth.
