You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 498

Nina ran down the stairs, picked up Van, and asked, "Cali, can you help me carry Don upstairs?"

"To the second floor?" Cali shook her head. "Sorry. Servants are forbidden to enter the second floor. Otherwise, Count Nangong will severely punish us. The count is kind, but he's strict when it comes to his rules. We've been very careful not to break any of them."

Nina turned to look at her and said, "Fine. I'll just come for Don later."

"Okay. Remember to put Van in a safe place before you leave him."

"Okay, I will." Then, Nina went upstairs with Van.

Standing in a remote corner, John had been watching Nina. When Nina disappeared to the second floor, he picked up Don and walked to the stairway.

Cali stopped him immediately. "What are you doing, Sean? The second floor is a forbidden area. You can't go up there."

But John simply ignored her and kept walking. Don giggled in his arms and touched his chin and neck with his little hands.

Seeing that he ignored her, Cali shut her mouth. John was different from them. Maybe he had gotten Vicente's permission to enter and exit the second floor as needed, so she did not need to worry about him.

Van and Don also seemed to like John very much. They stopped crying and fussing whenever he got close to them. It could even be said that they responded better to him than they did to the count.

Sometimes, Cali could not help feeling that John and Nina were somewhat a couple. John always looked at Nina with so much love and pain sometimes.

Cali thought, 'Does Sean love Princess Nina?

Maybe. So many men loves the princess, and it's not surprising that Sean is among them.

But... Alas...'

Cali sighed and lowered her gaze dejectedly.

Nina put Van in the middle of the big bed and tightly swaddled him. Before leaving him there to get his brother, she put lots of pillows around him to keep him from falling off the bed.

As soon as she walked out of the bedroom, she saw the tall and cold man walking toward her with Don in his arms. The contrast between the cool man and the cute baby in his arms made Nina stunned.

But what really surprised her was that he was able to enter the second floor.

"Did I forget to shut the door? How did you get up here?" Confused, Nina walked toward him and took Don.

"With my face," John replied flatly.

Nina knitted her brows. "Vicente programmed the biometric lock with your face? Why would he do that?"

"Because we're half-friends."

"Half-friends? And what's the other half supposed to be?" Nina looked him up and down and thought that he must have a close relationship with Vicente.

John simply glanced at Nina and did not answer.

Vicente had had his wife and children for more than half a year now. He had treated Vicente as his half-friend only because Vicente did not intend to steal Nina away from him and even tried her best to bring them back together.

Without excusing herself, Nina turned around and carried Don into the bedroom. When she was about to close the door, a big hand reached in and stopped her.

"What are you doing, Sean?"

"Keep the door open."

"No." She would talk to Noah on the phone. There were some things that she could not let others know.

Nina insisted on closing the door, so John had to compromise.

After she shut the door, he took a look at the fingerprint lock on it. He raised his right hand and gently pressed his thumb on the scanner. A hint of slyness quickly flashed across his face.

In a second, the lock sighed free.
