As they walked, the two of them discussed clothes, furniture, passing judgment items they saw. To
everyone else watching, they looked like a couple planning their married life together!
For some reason, the beautiful Nina even invited Philip up to her place after he walked her to her
neighborhood.
“Um, I don’t think I should…”
Philip scratched his head and gave her an awkward smile.
So she did have an ulterior motive after all, huh?
“It’s fine, just come up for a seat,” Nina continued to persuade him.
Philip thought it over and agreed to follow her upstairs.
Nina’s apartment was very clean, with one living room and two bedrooms. There was a simple three-
seater couch in the living room, while her bedroom was much more girly, with pink decor and many
stuffed animals on the bed.
Philip sat on the living room couch and took a deep breath. Whoa, it smelled good!
The whole apartment smelled faintly of perfume. It really raised his spirits.
Nina had just changed into something less restricting. She poured Philip some juice and said, “What do
you think? Do you like my place?”
Philip smiled and looked around, saying, “It’s pretty nice.”
However, Philip stole another glance at the blood-colored spider tattoo on Nina’s chest.
Where had he seen it before?
It must be a long time ago, at least before he left the Clarkes.
Nina found his awkward demeanor quite amusing. All of a sudden, she said, “I hope you can do me a
little favor later. My washroom light is busted, do you know how to fix it?”
“Of course! It’s easy as pie, no work at all.”
Philip laughed somewhat sheepishly.
The two of them chatted casually for a while, trying to put a stop to the awkward atmosphere.
…
“Here, give me the lightbulb.
“Screwdriver, please.
“Turn on the light and see if it works.”
Philip gave her one order after another. Nina stood at the washroom entrance, looking up at him. When
she flicked the switch on, the lightbulb lit up!
“It’s working, it’s working!”
Nina clapped her hands in delight, her eyes sparkling beautifully.
Philip jumped down from the stool and patted the dust off his hands. “If you need me for something like
this again, just give me a call and I’ll be right here.”
Philip did not really mean it, of course. He knew men should not go to women’s houses so flippantly.
He only offered it as an excuse for him to keep getting closer to Nina, all so he could eventually find out
who she really was.
Seeing the sweat on Philip’s forehead, Nina hastily took a napkin and wiped it off for him. It was just a
casual thing to do, but it made them feel infinitely intimate.
Philip looked up slightly and saw the way Nina looked as she helped him wipe off his sweat. His eyes
widened!
Although he looked surprised, his heart saw everything clear as day.
This Nina woman was quite intriguing.
Very well, he wanted to see what her game was.
Nina noticed Philip’s gaze as well. Her face quickly reddened, and she rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t
look at me like that!”
Philip chuckled. The two of them returned to the living room, and he never stopped evaluating what he
saw around the apartment.
Just then, a man’s voice yelled from outside the apartment, followed by loud banging on the door.
Nina was bringing Philip some tea, but her body stiffened when she heard the noise. Her eyes betrayed
her terror and fear!
Philip was surprised. Who could be knocking at this time of the night?
His gaze locked onto Nina’s, and he read the horror in her eyes!
Was she hiding some secret?
F*ck!
Could she actually have a boyfriend?
Was he going to get caught red-handed?
The mere thought made Philip feel even more awkward, but Nina’s behavior seemed to suggest
something else.
As a result, he asked her quietly, “Does anyone else live here?”
Nina bit her lip and glanced at the door, her slender fingers gripped her nightdress. “Actually…”
Before she finished that sentence, the banging on the door grew louder, and a man roared, “Nina
Jacques, open up! If you don’t, I’ll kick the door down!”
