Only you in my love novel Chapter 490

Nina lowered her voice and smiled, "Well, knowing him, he might cut your arm off."

"Really? Don't you think that's too cruel?"

"He's always been ruthless."

"And what if he doesn't chop my arm off?" Vicente said that because she clearly knew that the person Nina was talking about was not Noah.

Without hesitation, Nina answered, "Then he will definitely play a trick on you. Watch your back."

"Really?" Vicente was dubious, but she immediately believed Nina's words at the thought of John's face. 'I can't let him know that I hugged Nina by the waist.'

While they descended the stairs, Nina reminded Vicente, "Change your voice now. Don't expose yourself. Start speaking in a male voice."

"Yes, my dear princess." With a big smile on her face, Vicente raised the pitch of her voice so that people on the first floor could hear her.

Nina rolled her eyes at her.

Vicente burst into laughter.

Cali saw them and overheard them giggling, and the blush on her face slightly intensified. "They really are sweet. I want to fall in love too. I don't understand why Princess Nina fired Sean. What a pity!"

Noah turned his head toward Cali when he heard her sigh. "Cali, do you like Sean?"

"What?" Cali's cheeks flared at Noah's sudden question. She shook her head and denied, "No. I have to go get their breakfast."

After that, Cali left.

"Cali, what's wrong?" Nina and Vicente ran into Cali on their way to the dining room. Cali only stopped for a second and bowed to them before heading to the kitchen.

Vicente let go of Nina upon entering the dining room.

"Good morning, Noah." Grabbing a seat next to Noah, Nina glanced at him from the corner of her eye.

'Doesn't he have anything to say?' she thought.

Sitting opposite to them, Vicente snickered in her heart. Nina was waiting for Noah to be jealous, but Noah kept his face neutral. Although Noah did not know that Vicente was a woman, he was aware that Vicente liked men.

"Well, Noah, don't you have anything to say?" Vicente asked considerately, raising her eyebrows and smiling at Nina.

Noah looked at Vicente and then at Nina. "You already know?"

"Know what?" Nina and Vicente looked at him in confusion.

"I'm going back to Spring City today at noon to deal with a case. I don't know when I'll be back." Noah smiled gently at Nina. He decided to go back to work after thinking it over for a long time last night.

"And you're leaving at noon?" Nina supported Noah all the way when it came to his job, but he was leaving so soon. She was not yet ready to let him go.

She stared at his face with eyes full of reluctance and longing.

Noah's heart melted the moment he met Nina's gaze. It was true that she did not want him to leave because of their friendship, which was different from her feelings for John.

Noah touched her head and said with a smile, "You can call me when you miss me."

"But...All right." Nina pursed her lips and looked a little pitiful. "Can I come with you?"

"No." Vicente denied immediately.

Noah added, "What about Van and Don? They're still awfully young to leave their mother. More importantly, they need to be protected. You've fired Sean, so there's no one to look out for them now."

"Then I'll ask Sean to come back."

"Thank you." Noah finally took the can, opened it, and took a sip. It tasted nothing special.

"You're welcome." Vicente steered the car onto another road.

Soon, tall, green trees lined the road on either side, mountains peeked over the horizon on the left, and the ocean appeared on the right. The wind eventually tasted like pine and salt.

It was warmer in March on C Island than in Lexingport City and Spring City. It seemed that spring lasted for only half a month here and then summer came barging in. Vicente's car shone with the sun rays hitting its body.

Noah closed his window to block the howl of the wind and the smell of the sea.

"You're a very careful person." Noah kept his eyes fixed on the asphalt road ahead. "You're so careful that you remembered to give me this can of coke. You also know that John minds how others address Nina, so you practically ordered them to call her Princess Nina instead of the countess."

Vicente glanced at him but said nothing.

"You're not only considerate but also selfless. Even if the twins are not your biological children, you take care of them like they're your own." Upon hearing this, Vicente stepped on the accelerator.

The car lurched forward, pressing Noah's and Vicente's backs against the seat. After a few moments, Vicente eased his foot off the accelerator, allowing the car to run steadily. Then, she spoke to Noah while keeping her gaze ahead. "How sure are you that the twins aren't mine?"

"I've always been an excellent judge of character." Noah smiled. "Drive safely, will you? I won't snitch on you or anything."

"Good. Save your cleverness for the criminals, not the people around you who're trying to treat you right." Vicente felt her heart start racing.

Meanwhile, Noah returned to the original topic. "You're really selfless, and I'm your complete opposite."

"Is that so? How?" Vicente asked in confusion.

Noah smiled without saying a word. After a while, he finally answered, "This is my answer to the question you asked me last night. This is my choice."

He chose to be selfish and not tell Nina that he was not the one she really loved.
