Too Much to Bear, My Love novel Chapter 739

Chapter 739 Do What You Have To Do

Carter got into the car and said, “Mom, why don’t you and Nina go back first? I still have unfinished business at the company.” “I can do that, but Nina’s going with you. That’s settled,” Faye responded firmly. “Mom…”

Faye peered at him and said, “I’m taking another car. Nina’s keeping you company. Don’t be mean to her.” After she said that, she stepped out of the car. Only Carter and Nina remained in the vehicle.

Nina smiled gently at him. “Carter, don’t be mad. Just think of me as a friend sharing a ride with you. I know you don’t like me that way. Me neither. However, I don’t have a boyfriend. I came here because my parents intend to do something about that. Seeing you, I think we can become good friends.”

Carter shot her a glance. Oddly enough, his restlessness was suppressed when he took in her straightforwardness and gentle expression. “Nina, I heard that you used to study abroad. Why didn’t you consider working overseas?” he asked.

“I like Chanaean food. I love the colors, aroma, and tastes of Chanaean cuisine, so I came back. But after I take over the company, my parents might consider moving abroad,” Nina answered.

Carter laughed at that. Feeling relaxed, he said, “I was surprised to see you get physical. I thought you were soft and weak. Weren’t you afraid that June might hit you?”

“I doubt he can beat me. I don’t usually get into fights indiscriminately. I just don’t like the way he regards others, so I deliberately taught him a lesson with my fists. I don’t think he’s deserving of Ms. Larson. On that note, Ms. Larson would turn to look at you from time to time. I think you’re the one she likes,” Nina said to him, her eyebrows arched. She looked harmless enough, but she had sharp observation skills.

“Do you really think she likes me?” Carter said as he held the steering wheel tightly.

“Of course. She was quite subtle whenever she looked in your way, but I do think that she actually likes you. In fact, I think the two of you make a fine couple.”

“Nina, I find that you’re quite an interesting woman,” Carter commented out of the blue.

Nina blinked at him. “Thank you for the compliment,” she uttered mischievously.

Carter smiled faintly without saying anything.

While Carter was parking the car, Nina turned to look at the building outside the window. “Carter, why are we at the hospital? Have you come to check on the injuries on your face?”

Carter unbuckled his seatbelt. “No. A friend’s mother has been hospitalized. I want to check on her.”

Nina also unfastened her seatbelt and got out of the car. “Carter, why didn’t you say so earlier? I could have gotten a present. It’s not nice to drop by empty-handed.”

“I’ve got it covered.” With that said, Carter took out various supplements from the trunk. “See? Let’s go.”

Nina walked behind him. She reminded him kindly, “Carter, the bruises on your face… I’m afraid they might scare the patient. Why don’t we visit her some other day?”

“It’s fine. Go on,” Carter said, reassuring her.

Nina nodded.

The two entered the elevator and headed upstairs. When they arrived at the ward, the door was open, so they walked right in.

James was giving Eleanor a checkup. When he was done, he instructed Eleanor to pay attention to her diet. Amelia took note of everything. Then, she turned to see Carter and Nina, both of whom had just entered. She was surprised by Nina’s appearance. She didn’t think that there could be anyone more good-looking than Derrick and Kate, but apparently, Nina proved her wrong. Nina’s outstanding looks seemed rather surreal.

“Oh, you’re here, Carter. Come in,” Amelia greeted them graciously.

Carter and Nina walked further inside.

James turned around. When his gaze landed on Nina, he felt as if he had been electrocuted and fell into a momentary daze.

His mind kept on buzzing. That’s her. That’s her. That’s her!

After searching for so many years, he finally found the woman who made him fall in love at first sight.

Indeed, he fell in love with Nina at first sight.

The woman was pretty, sweet, and demure. She was as beautiful as a painting.

Amelia watched as James stared blankly at Nina with a spark of romance glinting in his eyes. This isn’t good.

James was probably harboring different thoughts about the unbelievably attractive woman in front of him. If that were true, her cousin’s previous efforts would have been for nothing.
