You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 496

John's hand was on Nina's face. It was a little cold for her tastes. He didn't pinch her hard enough to hurt her. But the place he pinched heated up quickly.

Indistinct images flashed through Nina's mind. She remembered someone loving to pinch her face.

John pinched her two more times before letting her go.

She grabbed his hand. "Pinch me again."

John stared at her for a few seconds and then laughed quietly, as intoxicating as wine. He held her hand and lifted it above her head. He leaned forward and whispered in her ear,

"I'll do it—if you kiss me."

She recoiled. Nina realized she had been inappropriate. But John was behaving so shameless.

"Bastard!" Nina took her hand back, pushed him away. She turned to leave.

John grabbed her arm again and said in an extremely evil tone, "Really? Then why are you blushing?"

"Let go of me!" Nina broke free from his hand again and quickly left the study, leaving him alone.

She was always just out of reach.

But at least he knew she felt the same way. Even if she wouldn't admit it.

So maybe he needed to be more subtle.

Feeling much better, John walked towards the desk and sat on the chair Nina vacated.

The woman ran to her room, head down. When she closed the door, she leaned against it and raised her hand to touch her face. It was really hot.

'Am I really blushing?

I didn't even blush around Noah. How could a bodyguard make me blush?

No way!'

Thinking of this, Nina looked at herself in the mirror suspiciously. Her face was indeed as red as an apple. How could this happen?

"Oh my God! He's right!" Nina patted her face. She couldn't believe this was happening.

She'd rather see a ghost. At least it was not as scary.

That night, Nina had a dream that frightened her even more. She had her back against the wall and was about to kiss Noah, but in the blink of an eye, it was John instead, wearing a mask.

Nina woke up with a start.

It was dawn when she opened her eyes. She wiped the sweat from her face. It was burning again.

The dream had made her blush.

Taking a look at the sleeping children, Nina stood up and washed her face. It was cold that morning, and Nina was on her period. Her stomach hurt, so she grabbed a cup, intending to get some warm water.

As soon as she got to the tea room, she heard a stirring sound. She looked up and saw John standing there. He had no shirt, and his abs were clearly outlined in the soft morning light.

She covered her mouth and turned around. She could feel her cheeks redden.

"Fuck..." Nina cursed quietly. She didn't believe she even said the word.

But she thought John was really rude, showing up half-naked like that.

"Put on some clothes for Christ's sake!" she hissed. She kept her head lowered. She wasn't going to give him the satisfaction of seeing her blush.

At this moment, John raised his eyebrows slightly. He brushed off her attitude. He put the cup in his hand on the table and walked over to Nina. "I made brown sugar water for you."

As soon as John approached her, she felt warm again, but she refused to look at him.
