Chapter 199 Misunderstanding



"Mrs. Shi, what\'s wrong?" Only then did Helen notice that Nina looked a little emaciated. She quickly extended her hand and placed a palm over Nina\'s forehead. Fortunately, her temperature seemed normal to which she heaved a sigh of relief.

Nina forced a smile and said, "Helen, I\'m fine. I guess he\'s just a little busy."

If she were being honest, she only said that last sentence as a way to comfort herself.

Lamentably, the warm sunshine outside could not distract her from the dark clouds that enveloped her.

She couldn\'t understand what had happened. Why would John ignore her and come up with an excuse to not see her?

Things seemed to have changed last night. Ever since Kristina died, John had been indifferent to her.

This was the first day that he didn\'t have lunch with her.

When John heard the door open, he knew it was her just from hearing the footsteps alone. However, he pretended not to hear her.

When she asked him if he had lunch yet, his hand holding the pen twitched as the expression on his face shifted.

She didn\'t ask him anything else—instead, she was more concerned about him than anything.

Perhaps Nina was an excellent spy who knew how to manipulate his emotions.
