You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 373

Firmly, John pressed Nina's body against the wall. He then lowered his head and tried to kiss her. However, she was able to slide down and avoid his kiss.

At last, John came to her. Although Nina was happy, she couldn't take her mind off the fact he and Vivian used to lie in the same bed.

The thought of it upset her.

"Why are you here?" Nina asked, turning around to switch on the light. The dim room brightened in an instant.

Nina stood in the light in a nightgown. Because of their brief struggle, John's shirt had become a little wrinkled. He frowned slightly when he saw the calm expression on Nina's face.

He knew exactly why she reacted that way, and he didn't blame her.

Slowly, his gloomy face lit up.

His little girl was jealous.

"What are you laughing at?" Nina exclaimed. She had no clue why he was laughing all of a sudden. The change in his emotion confused her.

Without answering, John unbuttoned his shirt slowly.

Eventually, his solid chest was exposed. Rolling her eyes, Nina turned her head and scoffed,

"Don't even think for one second that I'll let you go just because of your good figure.

I'm not going to make it that easy for you."

John had taken his shirt off, and red marks covered his body.

Walking towards Nina, he pinched her chin to make her look at him.

"I cleaned my body," he said in a low voice.

Nina didn't understand what he meant. Only when she turned around did she notice the red protruding marks on his body. Only hard scratching could cause those marks.

"What happened?" Nina felt sorry for him. She put her hands on his arms and scanned his body up and down. She also found that the back of his neck was red, but hot water was the cause, not scratching.

When her eyes went up to John's face, she gazed at his eyes.

He held her in his arms and took the back of her head with one hand. "If you think I'm still dirty, I can wash again," he whispered.

"No," Nina answered without hesitation.

She didn't think he was dirty. She was just deeply unhappy when she saw him lying next to another woman.

"No, I didn't mean that. You don't need to wash yourself again," she said softly.

John held her tighter. His well-built body clung to Nina's. They could feel the warmth of each other's body through their clothes.

"Does it hurt?" Nina asked. She looked up at him, and the resentment in her heart disappeared all of a sudden.

"It doesn't," he whispered, cupping her face in his hands. "I'm sorry, Nina." John then kissed her softly on the lips.

"You don't have to say sorry. It's not your fault." Nina couldn't bear to hear his apology.

She went and poured him a glass of warm water. "Did you get hurt when you climbed into the balcony?" Nina asked him in a worried voice.

"No, fortunately." John took the glass of warm water and kept his eyes on Nina. He knew that she had always been uncomfortable deep inside.

Nina smiled and said, "You're good at climbing."

"Well, honey, you are a good teacher." John tried to please Nina, but he only got a faint smile in return. It was clear that she had something on her mind.

John knew what it was that bothered her. He took a sip of warm water and said, "I've already investigated what happened."

Nina raised her eyebrows slightly but said nothing.
