You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 524

Vicente stood up and used her male voice again. It was as if she was trying to make herself realize who she was now.

"I'm going to change my clothes. Come with me. You can help me to choose what clothes I should wear. While we’re at it, we can continue to discuss the previous topic."

A beaming smile already bloomed on her face.

Nina was at a loss whether to laugh or to cry.

"John isn’t as popular as you, and his reputation isn’t as good as yours either," she said as they walked into the closet.

Originally, Nina’s closet was separated from Vicente's, but because Nina’s wasn’t big enough to accommodate her things, Vicente had people take down the wall separating their closets.

Although Nina had numerous things filling up her closet, they seemed to act only as decorations. Her various pieces of jewelry, for example. Vicente had only ever seen her wear a few of them. Her clothes, though, were a different matter. Nina had never worn the same clothes twice, and she could get changed into a different set of clothes a few times a day.

Vicente, on the other hand, didn’t really have many things in her closet. The majority of them were formal suits and casual clothes in neutral colors.

Her watch collection was quite impressive, though. They were arranged in a recessed wall shelf that occupied almost an entire wall.

The combination of two closets was at least two hundred square meters. It was further divided into several areas, but only one-third of the things there belonged to Vicente.

"Go on." Vicente excitedly went to the business wear area and picked a light-colored suit.

When Nina saw the suit Vicente picked, she went towards the tie drawer, all the while saying, "John rarely appears in public. There are indeed many women who like him, but their number isn’t as big as the number of your fans. Besides, although they like him, they’re also afraid of him. He can be quite standoffish, which gives off the illusion that he’s tyrannical."

"Illusion?" Vicente turned around and looked at her incredulously. "Isn’t that the fact? There wasn’t even the slightest hesitation in him when he stabbed the needle in Demy's eyeball. It was like what he was doing was just as normal as drinking water!"

Nina said thoughtfully, "I've even seen him chop someone’s hand off for real once."

"Is he really that merciless?" Vicente shuddered.

Nina said indifferently, "Yep, but I actually think he should’ve cut off both of that person’s hands instead of just one."

'That bastard wanted to harm me. If John hadn't cut off his hand, I might’ve kicked him in the balls.'

Vicente didn't know the real story, so her heart skipped a beat when she heard Nina’s blood-thirsty words. "You are a match made in Heaven! When one murders, the other prepares the knife! The two of you will definitely bring about disaster to the world. Should I just keep the two of you eternally separated from each other to maintain the safety of the world?"

"You dare?" Nina raised her eyebrows. "Try repeating what you said to me to John. I think he’d poison you to make you mute or perhaps cut your throat."

Vicente shuddered all over. The scene of John stabbing the needle into Demi's eyeball once again emerged in her mind. She shook her head frantically and said, "No, no, no. On second thought, I think it's best for you to be together. Maybe you two will contain each other, achieving checks and balances which will benefit the world."

Nina burst out laughing. "That’s very thoughtful of you."

Vicente wiped the cold sweat on her forehead. "Forget it. I’m already satisfied that I don’t lose to him in terms of appearance and wealth. Don't tell me anything about him anymore. I don't want to be jealous or scared out of my wits."

Nina walked over with the tie she’d chosen and personally tied it for Vicente, who seemed to be enjoying the treatment she received. "My dear princess is actually helping me to put on my tie. I would be..."

Vicente trailed off. She was so frightened by what entered her line of sight that her sentence was stuck in her throat.

"Why not continue?" Nina, who was still in the process of tying her tie, looked up in confusion, only to see the reflection of a man in Vicente's eyes.

At this moment, John was walking towards them with a straight face. Vicente, who kept recalling how cruel and merciless he was, subconsciously stepped back. However, Nina was still holding the tie around her neck, so she ended up only taking a small step back.

Upon seeing that reflection, Nina turned around and ran into John's muscular chest. "Little girl, you can tie a tie?"

Vicente sighed in relief. Fortunately, John didn’t get angry when he saw the two of them. Nevertheless, the 1.9-meter-tall tyrant standing in front of her was really putting her under immense pressure.

"Nina wants to practice with me so that she can help you tie your tie in the future." Vicente squeezed out a smile and pulled her tie out of Nina’s grasp, intending to make her escape as soon as possible.

The next second, however, she received a warning gaze that scared her so much her hands trembled all over. She immediately stopped what she was trying to do and pretended to be nonexistent.

Nina tried to explain herself, "I..."
