The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 226

Maybe some new PJs ? It was a lie ; Nan had plenty of Pjs and comfy clothes to wear tonight , but she needed an excuse as to why she was back so soon .

Becky nodded , not picking up on the lie .noveldrama

I think I have just the thing , she said as she walked out from behind the counter .

We got some new Pjs in yesterday , so this is good timing .

Lucky me … Nan thought to herself .

As she went to the pajama section , Nan watched her .

Becky was so beautiful .

This was the woman that her mate chose instead of her , and it made Nans heart hurt with every beat .

Becky returned with a cute pajama set and Nan forced a smile , barely even looking at the set in her hands .

Its perfect , she said mindlessly .

Do you want to try it on ? Becky asked , raising her hands .

No , need .

Im sure theyll fit fine , Nan said , nibbling on her lower lip .

Becky chuckled and walked back towards the counter .

Well okay then , Becky replied over her shoulder .

So … Nan said as she followed her to the counter .

How was your date the other night ? Becky shrugged .

The date itself was fine .

He was such a gentleman , Becky answered .

I was hed invite me to his place … but he didnt .

He dropped me off at home and kissed my cheek .

Nans chest tightened ; his lips were on her skin ? The thought made Nan feel sick to her stomach and she had to swallow down the bile that rose in her throat .

But hes been a little absent minded lately , Becky continued .

Like theres been something on his mind .

Weve seen each other a couple of times since that date , and it was the same … its obvious he isnt telling me something .

I think there might be someone else .
