You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 14

Subsequently, John's whole body stiffened when he heard what she said, her delicate voice seemed to be enveloping him all around. His heart skipped a bit, as if it had been hit by something. He raised his eyes and saw a slim figure dragging a mass of unidentified object past him before it disappeared.

After a minute, John came to his senses and asked, "What did she just call me?"

Henry thought he was not talking to Jason and was asking him, so he answered right away, "Mr. Shi, Miss Lu just called you honey."

Yes, just now, Nina called John honey in an endearing, melodious way, which made him admire her courage very much.

Perhaps this was what one called fate. Even though the two were not aware that they were legally married, she still called him honey.

Then, the person on the other end of the line said, "Yes, she indeed called you honey."

With two people having heard the same as he did, he was sure that he didn't mishear what Nina called him just now. This made John frown with feel conflicting emotions, and he couldn't explain clearly how he felt at that moment.

He hated this feeling of uncertainty. In effect, he got angry and his face turned cold. "Have I agreed to be her honey?"

How could she dare to call him honey so casually?

Did she think she could be his women so easily? No way!

On her end, Nina was in a wishful daydream. She hoped that by calling him honey, he and his mistress would have a misunderstanding and quarrel with each other.

If that were to happen, she would gloat menacingly on his trouble, all the while standing watch on the sidelines.

Just the thought of the stunned look on John's face a while ago made Nina feel victoriously complacent.

"Campus belle, are you okay?" Michelle had a feeling that the campus belle in front of her was not the real deal. It was already a bit out of the ordinary for her to smile, but the way she had caused trouble just now was way too strange.

The campus belle she usually saw on campus was a gentle and noble lady who seldom smiled and spoke only a few words.

So how could this person in front of her do such a mean thing?

It was only then that Nina realized that there was another person standing beside her. She immediately restrained herself and replied, "It's okay, don't worry. I'm fine."

"But how could you frame your uncle like that? Will you get scolded when you get home?" Up until that moment, Michelle was still under the impression that they were relatives. After all, it was highly possible because they were both good-looking.

"Don't worry. I won't," Nina reassured her with a smug smile. They didn't live together anyway, so it didn't matter at all.

If they were to meet again, there would never be a need to talk to each other anymore.

"Didn't you say that you were here to catch someone in the act of adultery? Come on, hurry up," Nina prompted her as a reminder and walked forward.

"Okay, let's go." Michelle nodded in agreement and walked in a hurry to follow Nina. She glanced at the room numbers on both sides but she wasn't able to find the room that she was looking for.

Michelle was at a loss. As far as she could remember, it was on the twentieth floor.

"Why can't I seem to find the room?" Michelle stopped in confusion and looked around worriedly.

Nina couldn't stand watching her anymore. "What's his name?"

"James Shi," Michelle replied dully and continued to look for the room on this floor. Nina could find no word to describe this confused and befuddled girl.

"Keep on looking for it. I need to go to the toilet for a while."

"Okay."

Nina told Michelle that she wanted to go to the toilet, but it was just an alibi. In fact, she just wanted to find a hidden place and used her watch. In less than half a minute, she found the check-in information of James.

When she came back, Michelle was still looking at the rooms randomly. She stepped forward to grab Michelle's hand and dragged her towards the elevator.

"You have been searching for his room on the wrong floor," Nina criticized her. Michelle was so stupid that she couldn't even get the right information.

Michelle was astonished. "Are you sure it was the wrong floor? But how did you know he's not here, but on another floor?"

"Well, I just made a wild guess that he must be on another floor." Nina calmly pressed the elevator button which took them two floors up.

Looking so serene, Michelle felt for a moment that Nina was still the same campus belle who always had a quiet and otherworldly demeanor.

It was only when faced with that uncle of hers that she would behave like a normal person.

"Don't be in a daze. Let's go," Nina reminded her and took Michelle in front of the door to Room 2241. Nina assuredly raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "This is the room that James Shi booked."

"Really? Are you sure?" Michelle was dubious, uncertain if they were in front of the correct room.

"If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself by trying."

"But how will I find out by trying?"

Nina rang the doorbell once, cleared her throat and said like a professional hotel clerk, "Hello, Mr. Shi. Room service."

"Wait a minute," a man's deep voice answered from inside the room.
