Chapter 747


    Chapter 747


    He couldn’t quite put a finger on his feelings for Trisha.


    He enjoyed herpany and didn’t want her to ignore him. But when it came to liking her, something


    seemed to be missing. He didn’t have a strong urge to be intimate with Trisha.


    Even when he kissed her, it felt more like a tease. His heart was calm and gentle, but itcked passion.


    However, the rxed and happy feeling he had around Trisha was something he didn’t experience with


    his ex–girlfriends.


    He didn’t want her to get hurt by Jace, was worried about her being treated unfairly, wanted to protect


    her, and wanted to have her under his protection, but he didn’t have the desire to be intimate with her.


    Could it be?


    That he saw Trisha as a friend?


    The more Nics thought about it, the more likely it seemed.


    When he was on good terms with Liam, he once felt uneasy about Liam’s rtionship with Mason.


    Mason’s return to the country initially made him jealous for a couple of days.


    His feelings for Trisha were probably the same.


    She might be a bit naive, but she was very loyal, a great cook, and although straightforward, she didn’t


    hold grudges.


    She was the kind of straightforward person he liked.


    Once he realized this, Nics felt more than ever that he needed to resolve this issue. He didn’t want


    to lose this loyal friend who cooked delicious meals. So he took the initiative to pour wine for both of


    them.


    “Trisha, about the food delivery incident, I was wrong. I let you down and betrayed your trust. This


    ss of wine is my apology to you. Please forgive me.” Trisha was surprised, then furrowed her brows,


    “Are you up to something again?”


    Nics fell silent.


    He didn’t me Trisha for thinking this way. Nics‘ apology was indeed too direct, making her


    instinctively think he was up to something.


    He softened his voice, “I’m sincerely apologizing to you. After you got off the carst night, I regretted it


    so much. You’re so good to me, cooking for me, ying games with me. I upset you just because I


    wanted a few more bites. I feel really guilty.”


    As for that kiss, he was still figuring out how to exin it.


    Before he could say anything, Trisha said, “You did more than one thing wrong. You kissed me in front


    of Dr. Ledford. Did you ever consider my feelings? How would Dr. Ledford see me after that? I consider


    you a friend, you shouldn’t do this to me, should you?”


    Nics fell silent again.


    In her eyes, that kiss didn’t mean anything.


    He should be happy, but Nics felt a bit uneasy.

    Did she not see him as a man?


    Or did she treat all men, except for Jace, this way?


    Trisha took the wine ss, “Considering your sincere apology and this bottle of Lafite, I forgive you. But


    don’t do


    Ledford. We can’t have him misunderstanding me.”


    Nics reluctantly agreed.


    After Trisha finished her wine, she began eating happily.


    again, and find time to exin things clearly to Dr.


    She didn’t seem to care about that incident. While eating, she mumbled to herself, “You’ve dated so


    many girls; howe your kissing skills are so bad? You even bit my tongue.”


    Nics was dumbfounded.


    Trisha could hold her liquor slightly better than Liam, but her wine–tasting skills were not as good as


    Liam’s.


    Liam knew he couldn’t handle liquor well, so he usually avoided it.


    But Trisha was the type who wasn’t good at drinking but loved to have fun.


    Chatting while eating, she started to feel a bit woozy after a few drinks.


    Her cheeks turned rosy, and she held a fork, trying to stab some meat in the pot.


    After several unsessful attempts, Trisha got angry, “I don’t think you’re here to apologize sincerely.


    The meat you brought is acting like it’s got legs; it runs away every time I try to stab it. You’re


    deliberately not letting me eat!”


    Nics was speechless.


    He picked up a fork, speared the piece of meat, and put it on her te.


    Trisha got angry again, “What, my hand can’t operate a fork? I don’t believe that I can’t get that piece of


    meat!”


    After saying this, she threw the meat from the te back into the pot and tried to stab it again.


    Five minutester, she decided to ditch the fork, rolled up her sleeves, and prepared to grab the meat


    with her hand.
