Chapter 151 Nancy, Look Carefully
Jennifer found herself unable to provide further exnation and bowed, offering an apology. “Mr.
Foster, I apologize for lying.”
Ignoring her, Luke carried Linda and stepped into the elevator, leaving Jennifer awkwardly standing by
the door.
In this tense moment, Shannon approached with a guilty look on her face. She cautiously asked,
“Jennifer, what should we do? Will Mr. Foster be angry at Linda like this?”
Jennifer replied uncertainly, “I don’t know if he’ll be angry at Linda, but he’s already angry at us.” After
saying this, she casually scratched her head. “For us, it’s bearable as long as Linda isn’t negatively
affected.”
“Mr. Foster loves Linda so much; he probably won’t.”
Jennifer sighed, her experience in theplex world of the entertainment industry shaping her
perspective. She reflected on the blurred lines between reality and fiction in this world. Her request was
simple-she just hoped Linda wouldn’t get hurt.
Without time to retrieve Nancy’s luggage, Nichs carried her directly to his room. As heid her on
the bed, it became clear that she was heavily intoxicated. As he was about to help her undress for a
shower, a sudden realization hit him-they were no longer a couple. This left him wondering how he
could assist her with something as intimate as a shower.
As he was about to get up and find someone to help her with her shower, she unexpectedly reached
out. She grabbed his tie with her slender, fair hand, forcefully pulling him in front of her. Caught off
guard, Nichs found himself inches away from Nancy. Their breaths mingled, and their noses nearly
touched. Despite the close proximity, the sight of her features, particrly her rosy and plump lips
under the warmmplight, instantly stirred his heart. He admitted to himself-he was in turmoil. It was a
complete mess.

In this intense moment, there was a palpable heat in the air, perhaps intensified by the alcohol. Nancy,
still intoxicated, reached out and began fumbling with her clothes as she hummed lightly. Her actions
seemed casual, but the sounds escaping her lips were like a potent elixir to Nichs at that moment.
He feared he might not be able to control himself.
Unaware of her own actions due to the alcohol, Nancyy on the bed, breathing heavily. The flush on
her face, intensified by the alcohol, looked alluring and captivating under the gentlemplight,
entuating her natural beauty. Her clothing pulled down at her chest, further emphasizing her
enticing curves.
Nichs was tormented to the point of madness. His parched and restless state was further
exacerbated by their close proximity, as everything about hery bare before his eyes. The intensity of
the moment led him to lose all reason. His whispered words of “Nancy” were followed by his impulsive
lean to kiss her rosy lips.
As he leaned in for a kiss, Nancy abruptly pped him across the face. Her hazy eyes fluttered open in
disbelief, and she wondered, Nichs? What’s going on? Why is he here? She had intentionally
drowned herself in alcohol, hoping to forget about him and have a peaceful night’s sleep. Yet, there he
was, his face blurrily swaying before her.
In her intoxicated state, Nancy reached out, patting Nichs’ face, her ps producing a loud
smacking sound. As she continued to pat him, she murmured, “You’re so annoying! Nichs, why are
you everywhere? Why do you keep showing up?”
Her words immediately darkened his expression, making him wonder if she wanted to avoid him even
when she was drunk.
“Nichs, do you know? You’re like a lingering ghost. Why can’t you leave me alone?” Her irritation
was palpable, and she couldn’t seem to shake his presence from her thoughts.
Nichs, sensing her annoyance, grabbed her wrist and warned her with frustrated gritted teeth,
“Nancy, look carefully. I’m a person, not a ghost.”
She seemed momentarily taken aback by this revtion, her drunken stupor briefly interrupted. Then,
she chuckled, her inebriated mind refusing to believe it. “You can’t be a ghost. Ghosts aren’t so
handsome. But how can you look exactly like Nichs? Who are you?”
Nichs, frustrated beyond words, struggled to respond.
Nancy pouted in dissatisfaction when her demand for an answer went unanswered. She extended her
hand and pushed forcefully, reiterating her question, “Who are you? Who exactly are you?”
“I am Nichs,” he said, his tone softening as he recognized that a gentler approach was needed to
handle the situation.
Nancy smiled drowsily upon hearing this, her mood shifting erratically. She reached out and patted
Nichs’ face again, mumbling, “Nichs? Haha… You say you’re Nichs?” In her state, she
couldn’tprehend how he could be her ex-husband. “But how could you possibly be Nichs?
You’re so silly that you can’t even tell a lie,” she remarked, still baffled by the situation.
He attempted to exin, “I didn’t lie; I am Nichs.”
“You dummy. Nichs is at home now! I’m in Swania; how could he be here?” she eximed, her
intoxicated grin revealing her amusement.
Gathering Nancy’s disheveled clothes, Nichs struggled to suppress his impulses and then patiently
exined, “You silly girl. Can’t I…” He hesitated, his thoughts racing-Fly over here?
However, before he could finish his sentence, she suddenly lowered her arm, rolled over in bed, and
began tossing and turning while keeping her eyes closed. Even though her eyes were shut, she
remained awake, clearly somewhat confused. She continued to roll on the bed, holding onto a pillow,
her pink and tender lips puckered as she murmured incessantly. “Linda, do you know what? I actually
saw a fake Nichs just now. He even tried to deceive me, but luckily, I’m clever; otherwise, I would
have been fooled.”
As the real Nichs stood by the bed, he couldn’t help but twitch his lips, utterly perplexed by how he
ended up being mistaken for a fake version of himself.
“Linda, your bed is incredibly soft andfortable,” Nancy mumbled in her intoxicated state.
“Linda, you’re right. There are so many good men out there. Why should I tie myself to one person?
You said you’d introduce a boyfriend to me. I think the young hunk in your phone with the great
physique is much better than Nichs. How about you introduce him to me?”
“Or maybe a mature man is okay. Mature men are caring. I feel like I might prefer a mature man. Why
don’t you introduce me to a mature man?”
“Hmm? Sister-brother romance is cute, too. What should I do? How about introducing a cute younger
brother to me?”
“Linda, I believe they’re all great. What should I do? Could you please introduce all of them to me?”
She hoped that by considering different potential partners, she could distract herself from her ex-
husband, Nichs, who had be such a bother.
“Naughty, please go away.”
“Please leave quickly.”
Every time Nancy thought of Nichs, she would vigorously wave her hand, trying to dismiss the
intrusive memories. It had worked the first two times, but now, something was wrong. Her hand,
seemingly paralyzed, couldn’t respond to her desperate gestures. “Boohoo…” She panicked and cried
out. “Naughty! Who is holding onto me? Let go of me. Let go of me immediately.”
