Chapter 515 Hickeys
Vicente knocked on the door and yelled, "Can Ie in? Are you decent?"
"Come on in."
Hearing Nina''s answer, Vicente pushed the door open and walked in the ward. John and Nina were
sitting on the sofa and having breakfast. Nina was drinking soybean milk with a straw. Seeing Vicente
milk?"
John was sitting half a meter away from Nina and eating a bun slowly and elegantly.
"Thanks. Don''t pretend. I know what you were doing." Vicente shut the door behind her and locked it so
that they would not be disturbed.
He walked toward Nina and took the soybean milk that was supposed to be John''s. She took a seat
beside her and said, "Can you scoot a little bit, please?"
Nina slid closer to John, making space for Vicente on the sofa. She then said defensively, "We were
just having breakfast. We weren''t doing anything else."
John silently put his arm around Nina''s waist, which he had been thinking about for a long time.
Vicente shed them a knowing smile. She turned her head to look at them and then took a sip of her
soybean milk. "I wasn''t born yesterday, my dear princess. Even if you two arepletely dressed, I
know what you were doing before I walked in."
Then, Vicente bent down and pulled out John''s tie from under the sofa. She waved it in front of them
and asked, "Case in point."
Nina''s eyes widened.
She swiped the tie off Vicente''s grasp as her cheeks red furiously.
With an embarrassed smile, she stuffed the tie behind her.
"Besides, you have a lot of hickeys on your neck." Vicente looked sidelong at Nina''s neck and
corbone.
Nina looked down and found the love bites on her skin. She raised her hand in panic but could only
cover a few of the marks.
Embarrassed and annoyed, she red at Vicente.
"What are you ring at me for? He''s the one who gave you the hickeys," Vicente said discontentedly,
nodding at John.
Feeling genuinely amused, John only snickered.
It was not his fault. Nina''s skin was so tender that even the gentlest kisses left marks on it thatsted
for several days.
Noticing the anger in her eyes, John quickly stopped smiling and turned tofort Nina, "It doesn''t
matter. You can just wear a cheongsam to cover them up."
"A cheongsam?" Nina asked in confusion. "You got me a cheongsam?"
Vicente asked in surprise, "How did you know that the cheongsams I had bought for Nina arrivedst
night?"
"I didn''t," John answered.
Turning her head toward Vicente, Nina said, "You bought cheongsams for me?"
"Yes." Vicente nodded. "Didn''t you say that you wanted to wear a cheongsam? The craftsmanship here
isn''t that good, so I especially sent someone to Z Country to customize several cheongsams for you.
They just arrivedst night, and I thought you could wear one of them when you get discharged from
the hospital today."
"Oh, Vicente, that''s so nice of you." Nina was deeply touched. She mentioned the cheongsam to
Vicente before because she was missing John, but she did not expect that she would remember it.
"The man...woman who will marry you in the future will be very lucky." Nina almost spilled the beans.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly and changed her words.
She reached out and was about to hug Vicente. She was suddenly reminded of Michelle who always
jumped into her arms when she got excited.
"Ahem." John cleared his throat loudly and grabbed her hand. He quickly stood up and sat between
Nina and Vicente.
Vicente could only shake her head.
She thought, ''Wow, this man is really possessive.
He not only guards Nina from Noah but also from me. What the hell is wrong with this guy? Haven''t I
working my butt off to get him back together with his wife?
Maybe I shouldn''t be so kind to him after all.''
"I have to remind you two that you''re now involved in a secret love affair. You should try harder to hold
yourselves back now," Vicente said in a soft voice with a bit of toughness. "Especially you, John. No,
Sean. If you expose your rtionship with Nina, I won''t be able to help you when others take you down
for it.
After all, you two are technically cuckolding me." Vicente raised her chin.
Nina did not know what to say.
She thought, ''This person really has a special way of speaking.
Which man would sound so arrogant after being cuckolded?''
"We''re not cuckolding you, Vicente." Nina leaned forward. "Our marriage is a political move. When your
power is stabilized, I will go back to Lexingport City with John."
Vicente also leaned forward and whispered back, "Well, I haven''t stabilized my power yet, have I?
That''s why I''m telling you two to be careful. A couple, even a fake one, share weal and woe. If anything
bad happens to you, I will also be seriously affected."
"I suppose you''re right."
"So you and Sean should restrain yourselves and keep your rtionship a secret."
"Okay, fine."
Their voices became lower and lower as if they were preventing themselves from being overheard.
John did not want to hear the conversation, but he was sitting between Nina and Vicente and heard
everything.
"Why are you two whispering in front of me? You know I can hear you, right?" John blinked, feeling a
little confused.
Vicente turned her head at him and retorted, "I just started whispering because Nina started
whispering." Then, John and Vicente stared at Nina.
Nina whipped her head at them. "What? It''s a secret I don''t want strangers to overhear. I was being
careful."
Vicente pointed to John and asked, "I take it he''s not a stranger anymore."
John narrowed his eyes at her.
Nina blinked and then smiled widely. She twined her arm with John''s and said, "We''re a couple. We are
one."
"All right, that''s enough." Vicente rolled her eyes. "You don''t need to rub it in my face, you know."
Ninaughed heartily and answered, "But thank you for everything, Vicente. I really appreciate it. We''ll
try our best to act normally until you attain your goals."
As she spoke, she gave John a soft kiss on the cheek.
Vicente raised her hands to cover her eyes. She roared in her heart, ''Damn, no single person needs
these tant disys of affection!''
"Good. Then I''m leaving." Vicente stood up and walked out with her eyes half-covered.
When Vicente was gone, John snaked his arm around Nina''s waist and pulled her close. He raised his
hand and ran his thumb on her lower lip. "Did you just steal a kiss from me?"
"No," Nina said confidently. "I didn''t steal it if it belonged to me to begin with."
A gentle smile spread across John''s face. He put down his hand, leaned in, and said, "Then take as
many kisses as you want."
"And what if I no longer want to?" She kept her face neutral and slightly leaned back.
He gently pinched her cheek and threatened in a deep, seductive voice, "Then I''ll just give you more
reasons to wear a cheongsam."
Thinking of the marks on her neck, Nina stood up, braced her hands on John''s shoulders, and
straddled him. She grabbed his cor and pulled him close until their breaths mingled.
"Excuse me, I..." Vicente returned. Thinking that John and Nina would restrain themselves, she just
pushed the door open without warning. What she saw surprised the hell out of her.
She finally understood what Nina meant the previous night, how she and John were justpletely
incapable of controlling themselves around each other.
It turned out that she was worried that she was unable to resist John''s charms.

She was on top of him!
Vicente was so shocked that she stammered, "I...I came back for something. Demi''s handbag. I want to
return it to her on my way to see Cali.
Don''t worry. I wasn''t here. I didn''t see anything. Go on, Nina." A hint of admiration shed in Vicente''s
eyes. She really wanted to give Nina a thumbs-up sign.
Nina just chuckled and did not say anything. It seemed that she had understood what she meant.
Seeing the couple on the precipice of getting busy, Vicente quickly half-covered her eyes once again.
She mindlessly reached out for the handbag and identally knocked it over, scattering its contents all
over the floor.
Demi left the handbag unzipped, so stuff just came tumbling out of it.
There was a tube of lipstick, apact mirror, a silk scarf, a pair of headphones, and a pen.
And then there was also a dazzling sapphire ne.
Nina stopped and stared at the piece of exquisite jewelry. She had seen that ne before.
