Andrew Williams waits for her for three years. But there was a crisis in his family business. His grandfather knelt down and begged him so he had to marry Aby Lewis to protect his family. But every day he misses Nina Morrison.
Andrew Williams is surprised to see Nina Morrison's name on the hospitalization list.
He knocks on the door of Nina Morrison's ward with trembling hands and waits anxiously for Nina Morrison.
Nina Morrison thinks it is Paige when she hears a knock at the door. She comes over with a cup of hot tea in her hand and opens the door.
The door is opened. She sees Andrew Williams' elegant and handsome face. His eyes are pleasantly surprised. He looks at Nina Morrison with a smile. The cup in her hand falls to the ground and the chips splash around, making a harsh noise. But Nina Morrison and Andrew Williams seem to have heard nothing at all.
They look at each other's faces and don't know what to say...
"Nina, how are you doing?" After a while, Andrew Williams asks. His voice trembles slightly but it is warm and magnetic.
Nina Morrison's eyes are wet and her tears fall. She looks at Andrew Williams foolishly.
His face is very handsome. He has a faint fragrance of mint. The fragrance matches his mild temperament.
She wants to speak but she chokes. She can not say anything at all.
"Nina, Nina... I finally find you..." His gentle voice is somewhat husky and murmuring. He calls her name again and again. He holds her tightly in his arms.
He seems afraid that she will disappear at any moment. She clings to his warm chest. She can feel his heartbeat clearly.
Nina Morrison is hugged by him. Her head rests on his chest and she is crying all the time.
"Nina, where have you been these years? I'm looking for you everywhere..." Andrew Williams gently blames her. But there is surprise in his voice.
"Sorry..." Nina Morrison can not say a complete sentence.
"Never say sorry to me." Andrew Williams gently touches her long hair with his warm palm and mutters, "Nina, how are you doing?"
How are you doing?
Nina, how are you doing?
Nina Morrison's tears are more turbulent. She cries silently.
How's she doing? She does not know who the father of her child is. She is a disgraceful mistress. She is imprisoned and kept in captivity. If the master is in a good mood, he will treat her well. If the master is in a bad mood, he will get angry and insult her.
How's she doing?
Her life is terrible.
"Nina, you have my phone number. Why don't you come to me?" Andrew Williams asks eagerly. His voice trembles a little and his hands hug her tightly. He wants to insert her into his body and never separate her again.
Nina Morrison's slender hands almost want to lift in response to his hug.
However, after a moment of hesitation, she slightly retracts her arms.
She doesn't deserve it. Yes, she doesn't deserve it. She is dirty.
Andrew Williams has a great future. He is handsome and elegant. And what about her? She is a dirty and shameful mistress. She's an unmarried mother...
She doesn't even deserve to be embraced by Andrew Williams...
She's been crying. She bites her lip and restrains her sobbing voice. "I'm fine," she says.
I'm fine. I've calmly accepted my destiny. Andrew Williams, stop thinking about me.
Nina Morrison's words give Andrew Williams a violent shock.
There is alienation in her voice that he is not familiar with.
She is alienated from him. The girl who always smiled sweetly at him and called him "Andrew" in a crisp voice never spoke to him so politely.
Andrew Williams' hands slowly loosen.
Nina Morrison subconsciously wants to wipe the tears off her face. She doesn't want Andrew Williams to see her crying. She must be ugly.
Andrew Williams is a little sad about her. He carefully lifts her face and whispers, "Nina, why are you crying?"
Andrew Williams seems to be holding the most precious treasure. He wipes her tears and coaxes her softly, "Don't cry. We haven't seen each other for years. Why do you cry when you see me? Am I so terrible?"
Nina Morrison begins to cry again.
Because she has been thinking about him for three years. Because he has become a thorn in her heart. She will be heartbroken at the thought of him.
Nina Morrison smiles at him and raises her hand to wipe away her tears.
Andrew Williams smiles. Nina Morrison's smile makes him see the girl's shadow again. He reaches for Nina Morrison's hand and wants to say something. "Nina..."
Nina Morrison looks down and sees his engagement ring on his ring finger.
Simple platinum ring represents vows and love.
Andrew Williams is engaged to Abby Lewis.
Nina Morrison yanks back her hand. Andrew Williams looks down at his hand, stiff in midair.
