Only you in my love novel Chapter 488

John was stuck like a statue. His eyes followed Nina's foot. Then he slowly looked at her, shrouded in emotions.

He felt like the air turned thick as his breath became heavy.

When Nina looked into his eyes, it was as lifeless as the Dead Sea. Occasionally, she could see some ripples, which seemed to be caused by anger or something else. There was so much going on that she couldn't get a read on him.

Her chest pounded as her nerves took over her. She too felt stuffy, making it difficult for her to breathe.

She didn't dare to look into John's eyes anymore, so she turned to Noah and asked, "Noah, is your arm okay? You can't be working with an injured arm. How will you deal with all those menacing criminals?"

"I'm fine." Noah rolled his wrist to show Nina he was all right. He looked over Nina's shoulder and locked eyes with John.

The light that Nina ignited in John's eyes was slowly being extinguished, leaving behind nothing but pain and sadness.

John's hulking frame gradually weakened, as if he was being shrouded by darkness.

Noticing the sorrow in John's eyes, Vicente said to Nina, "It was just a joke between Sean and Noah, but I think he feels bad that you lashed out against Sean. Would you like to apologize?"

As Vicente spoke, she kept winking at Noah anxiously.

'Hurry up and stand up for John. We can't just let a fight break out.'

Noah understood and nodded, "Vicente is right."

"Don't lie to me." Nina rubbed Noah's wrist and looked up at him. "Sean did it on purpose. No matter what enmity you have with him, I will get back at him when he hurts you."

Hearing this, Noah had mixed emotions.

He was happy but there was still a strong guilt hanging over him.

Before he could figure out how to ease the tension, Nina said coldly, "Sean, pack up and leave before noon."

Hearing this, the three of them were all stunned.

John clenched his fists as his eyes turned red. He gritted his teeth tightly, as the fury built from inside of him.

Noah looked towards John.

'If John's heart got hurt form Nini's kick, this sentence would have broken his heart completely.'

"Nini, stop it. Sean is the children's bodyguard." Noah had to intervene before she did anything rash.

Vicente said, "Yes. Don't forget that Jett still has his eye on the two of us. If he can't get to us, he'll definitely go after the children."

"I'll protect the babies myself." Nina refused to listen to them.

Vicente became a nervous wreck. For the first time, she angrily raised her voice at Nina. "You can't fire Sean because of your own selfish motive! He is my children's bodyguard. Nina, you can't just think of Noah all the time."

Nina said slowly, "I'm just protecting him."

There was no sense of doubt in her cold voice. Noah could tell she was as domineering as John.

"I don't think you should dismiss him either. If you fire him, you'll regret it," Noah said.

Nina stopped him and said, "Noah! He kicked you on purpose. No matter what the reason is, I can't keep him around. Why are you standing up for him?

You were never like this before. Whenever anyone hurt you or the people around you, you would be merciless towards them."
