Chapter 638 Be Good
“Release me, Nico!” Summer flushed a bright red. Her limbs were too weak to break free from Nico’s
restraint.
Her weak struggles only served to arouse his desire to dominate her.
Infuriated, Summer exclaimed, “Let me down! My skirt is too short. It’s not safe…”

Nico scowled and stated, “If you know your skirt is too short, why did you wear it before coming here to dance? Did you take your safety seriously at all?”
Even though he sounded like he was lecturing her, he still thoughtfully used the coat Summer had removed from her shoulders earlier to cover her butt.
The DJ and the bar staff members were dumbfounded as they watched the deputy director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation flirting with his girlfriend.
A few female employees there even whispered, “Mr. Nico’s so manly and domineering, not to mention he’s the adopted son of the Jenson family. It must be nice to be the girlfriend of someone as rich and handsome as him.”
Summer heard that loud and clear. Like heck it is! He’s just a dense, inconsiderate man!
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. They entry me, but they don’t know how tiring it is to be in love with a blockheaded man like him. Only I do.
“You’re a b”stard, Nico! I’m your bride-to-be, not your subordinate! Stop trying to coerce me!” she shouted.
Sighing, Nico continued striding out of the building. It wasn’t tiring for him to carry Summer on his shoulders at all.
He restrained Summer’s restless legs with one arm while gently patting her butt with his other hand.
Pushing his anger down, he said. “Stop messing around. I’ve never tried to coerce you before. It’s just that you’re too naughty tonight. Let’s talk once we head home. It’s getting late.” I think she has gotten fatter after caring for her for a year. Back in Erihal’s dungeon, she was skinny and malnourished. Now, she’s heavier than before, and her butt is chubbier.
When he recalled their first encounter, especially her pretty eyes and how terribly abused she had been, he sighed in his mind.
Taking on a less stern tone, he spoke earnestly. “Back when I saved you from Erihal’s dungeon, your weight was less than forty kilograms. After I took care of you for a year, you gained eight kilograms, and your body isn’t as skinny as before anymore. Who should you thank for that, huh? I asked Cedrick to enroll you in a university. Not once did I interfere with your professional or school life. I’ve respected almost every wish you have. Aside from forbidding you from spending the night outside and returning too late, when did I ever force you to do what you don’t want to? I’ve been doing my best to take care of you over the year. I even gave you my payroll card for safekeeping. Yes, I’m aware that I’m not an excellent talker and that I don’t understand a woman well. However, aside from you, I also need to manage my career. Otherwise, you and I will have to sleep under a bridge. So, can you be a little more well- behaved?”
I’ve been saving up money because we’re about to be engaged. All I want is to give her the best that I can so she doesn’t need to be envious of the priceless jewelry and other items in Gwendolyn’s possession. I’ve been so busy the whole day
dealing with my work. Instead of being able to rest after returning home, I have to come here right away to grab Summer. I’m so, so exhausted. Mentally and physically. However, I’m a mature man. As drained as I am, I won’t complain about my woes. I’ll swallow them all, but I do hope Summer can understand me better. It’s not easy for me to care for her.
Summer listened quietly, and once he was finished, she remained silent for a long while after.
I must say, Nico did a flawless job taking care of me. He provides me with the best, whether in terms of food, education, or anything I’m using. He’s doing his best to earn a living. Sometimes he may be a cheapskate or argue with me, but he’s never stopped giving me my weekly allowance. In fact, he granted me the warm care my real father never showed me before. Still… As Summer’s eyes reddened, she pouted aggrievedly.
