President's Contract Wife novel Chapter 228

Isn’t he going to be engaged to Jasmine Harris? Then why does he give Nelson my number? Can’t Lucien Gray leave her alone?

Nina Morrison feels a rush of nausea.

“Nelson, honey, I... I can’t play with you now. Later......I may not be able to play with Nelson anymore. Nelson, I'm sorry...” Although she hates Lucien Gray, Nina Morrison can never be cold to Nelson. She doesn’t have the heart to say any harsh words to him.

“Auntie Morrison! Why? Why can't you play with me? I am going to celebrate my birthday in a few days. You promised me last time that you would come to my birthday!” Nelson feels so wronged and begins to cry. He says with a sobbing tone.

What Nelson says has reminded Nina Morrison, she did promise Nelson to accompany him with his birthday.

Nina Morrison feels sorry, “Nelson, I’m sorry... Auntie is too busy these days to go to your birthday. Shall I give you a birthday present to make up for it?”

Nelson doesn’t accept it, “Auntie Morrison, if you don’t come, I don’t want to celebrate my birthday. Dad always brings a lot of uncles and aunties, but I don't like them! I only like you!”

That makes Nina Morrison feel sorrow. But what could she do? Lucien Gray has left her. She can’t be so cheeky to go to the Gray Family.

Nelson cries sadly on the phone. Nina Morrison hangs up the phone helplessly and cries herself into bed.

The days passes in a blur. Sunny and Peter Johnson return from their honeymoon. Sunny buys gifts for Nina Morrison and asks her out for lunch.

“Nina, why are you so skinny?” Sunny is shocked as looking at haggard Nina Morrison.

Nina Morrison shakes her head with a wry smile. She doesn’t have the mood to speak.

Sunny comes back and hears Jasmine Harris show off her engagement to Lucien Gray. Thinking Nina Morrison is upset about this, she pats her on the hand, “Nina, don’t be sad. Peter Johnson and I have discussed about this. We think Lucien Gray is on purpose. Maybe he is just holding off to beat Jack Harris. So, he has to send out the engagement message to hold the Harris Family.”

Nina Morrison looks out of the window feebly, “I don’t care who he’s going to marry. What makes me saddest is that I promised to accompany Nelson to have his birthday party, but I can’t keep it. Nelson must have been disappointed with me.”

It comes to Sunny’s mind suddenly, “Yes, it is! Nelson’s birthday is in two days. I also get the invitation. I haven’t bought him a birthday present yet!”

Nina Morrison’s eyes light up, “Are you going to Nelson’s birthday? Can you give him my present?”

Sunny nods, “All right! There is a children’s toy store near my house. The toys there are very exquisite. We can go there and pick our presents after dinner.”

Nina Morrison feels better now. After lunch, she urges Sunny to take her to buy toys.

Sunny gives her a glance, but can’t figure it out. Yes, Nelson is lovely, but it’s starnge that Nina Morrison loves him so much. They just meet several times!”
