President's Contract Wife novel Chapter 40

Nina Morrison spends the whole morning worrying and unsettling. If the truth is revealed, she does not know how to face the contemptuous eyes of classmates!

With her hands on her cheeks, Nina Morrison stares at the spot on the table. Lucien Gray, this man has made a mess of her life!

“Nina, shall we go to the canteen for dinner later? You missed school the last few days when a new chef comes. His fish filets in hot chili oil are very delicious!” Red hearts appear in Lily's eyes, and she looks at Nina excitedly.

“Well, that ...” Nina Morrison is a little embarrassed. Lucien Gray ordered her to meet him at his office after class and have lunch. In fact, she would like to eat with Lily. She has not come to school for several days and would like to hear Lily talking about the new things in school.

“Nina, what is wrong with you? You have been weird lately. Is your father getting worse?” asks Lily worriedly.

Nina Morrison is touched by Lily’s worried look.

“Well, Lily, I will go and have fish filets in hot chili oil with you after class.” Nina Morrison decides.

She goes the stairwell and dials Lucien Gray’s phone number.

“Hey, well, I am something to do at noon, so I can’t have lunch with you.”

“What matter is more important than having lunch with me?” Lucien does not sound very happy.

Nina Morrison could not say more. Lucien Gray is a very perceptive person. And the more she says, the more likely he is to find her fault.

“The professor has something to do with me. It is time for class.” Nina Morrison quickly hangs up the phone and wipes the cold sweat off her head.

The hung up phone sounds so empty.
