Chapter 72 It's a Mess
Chapter 72 It's a Mess
Nina thinks it is the funniest thing she has ever heard. “I tried the dress, and it disappeared. I stole it?”
The shop assistant who is holding Nina’s arm gives Nina a hard push, “you’re guilty! Why not open
your bag for us to check?”
The floor is so smooth that Nina is pushed to the ground unprepared. She feels a lot of pain when her
crotch hits the ground.
Nina’s face turns white with fear. The baby in her stomach can’t be hurt!
Nina quickly touches her stomach with her hands. She bursts into tears, “baby, are you ok? How are
you doing? It’s mom’s fault! Baby, you can’t get hurt!”
Nina cries and talks to the baby in her stomach. The shop assistant who is a little kinder is also
shocked! This woman is pregnant!
The shop assistant who pushed Nina down is still shouting and scolding. “Are you pretending to be a
pregnant woman? Hand in your clothes, or you won’t leave today!”
Nina doesn’t care about her at all. She just touches her stomach with her hand. She looks down at her
slightly bulging abdomen, remorse and fear. Her tears run down her face.
“It’s noisy here! Troy, let’s go to another store!” A soft female voice suddenly sounds.
Nina turns her head in surprise when she hears the name “Troy”. They stare at each other in surprise.
Troy is standing in front of the store! He’s holding Abby’s hand.
No! She doesn’t want Troy to see her in such a mess! She doesn’t want Troy to know she is pregnant!
Nina turns her head quickly. She doesn’t want Troy to see her face.
But it’s too late.
Troy leaves Abby’s hand and steps over. He gently lifts Nina with his strong arm. His magnetic voice is
full of care and heartache, “Nina, what’s the matter with you? Who bullied you?”
Nina hurriedly wipes away tears from her face and shakes her head. “It’s OK. I’m fine.”
Abby is very alert. Who is this woman? Why is Troy so nervous?
She approaches Nina and feels her familiar. But she can’t remember where she has seen her.
Abby pulls Troy’s sleeve and quietly separates Troy from Nina. “Troy, who is this lady?” Abby’s voice is
still soft. She has a good upbringing. Even if she is angry, she will keep her dignity.
“Abby, this is Nina. Nina, this is my fiancee Abby.” Troy introduces them. Troy struggles with the word
fiancee.
Nina? Abby remembers it all of a sudden! At the hospital that day, Troy ran out looking for an old friend.
That was the name he called!
She asked the nurse later. The nurse said Troy had been in the woman’s ward for more than an hour.
They spent more than an hour alone together. She didn’t believe they were just chatting!
Looking at Troy’s look at Nina, Abby knows that her big trouble is coming! A woman’s intuition tells her
that there’s something between Troy and Nina!
Abby smiles and reaches out to Nina. “Nice to meet you, Miss Morrison!” She looks Nina up and down
with a little mean in her eyes.
Nina reluctantly smiles at Abby. She is worried about the baby in her stomach and is not in the mood to This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
talk to her.
“Troy, Abby, I’ll go first. Take your time!” Nina gently strokes her stomach and is ready to walk out the
door.
“Stop! You can’t leave without paying for the dress!” The fierce shop assistant stops Nina.
“What’s the matter?” Troy’s soft voice hardens and goes to Nina’s side to protect her behind him.
“She stole a dress!” The fierce shop assistant points to Nina’s nose.
Abby comes over and pulls Troy’s sleeve. “Troy, it’s her private business. We are not fit to take care of
it.”
She doesn’t want to help Nina! She wants to see her make a fool of herself! But she still has to pretend
to avoid her privacy.
Troy ignores Abby at all. He says sternly, “this lady can’t steal your clothes. If you keep pestering, I
have to call the police!”
Troy’s momentum shocks the shop assistant. This gentle man is terrible when he gets angry.
But she doesn’t want to let Nina go. “The facts are very clear. Why call the police? Let her open the
bag! The dress must be in the bag!”
Troy wants to talk but Nina raises her hand and stops him.
Nina feels very tired. Her body and heart are tired. She just wants to end the farce quickly.
Nina opens her bag and hands it to the shop assistant. “Check it!”
The shop assistant looks into the bag expectantly. Her eyes widen in surprise! There is nothing in the
bag except the mobile phone, key and wallet!
Troy looks at the tired Nina and he’s upset. He says coldly to the shop assistant, “now can you let this
lady leave?”
The shop assistant’s eyes are turning fast. This dress is worth tens of thousands of dollars. If Nina
leaves, she needs to bear the loss herself. Even if she didn’t steal the dress, she must frame her!
The shop assistant holds Nina’s arm firmly. “It was only after you tried the dress that it was lost. You
have to be responsible for that.”
Nina is stunned. How can there be such a shameless person in the world?
Troy pulls the shop assistant away from Nina. There is a trace of disgust in his eyes. He doesn’t want
to talk to such unreasonable women!
He takes out his wallet and fills in some figures on the check. He coldly throws it to the shop assistant,
“take it! That’s enough for two dresses!”
All of a sudden a loud noise startles everyone present.
They look back and see a tall, handsome man standing behind them. He is smashing the vase
decorated in the shop to the ground.
It’s Lucien! Why is he here? It’s a mess here!
Nina looks at Troy and Lucien. She has a premonition that a storm is coming!
Lucien kicks the glass and walks to the shop assistant. He picks up the check in her hand and slowly
tears it to pieces!
The shop assistant is frightened by his ferocity. She forgets to fight back.
Lucien puts Nina in her arms and says lightly, “she belongs to me. She doesn’t need someone else’s
check!”
His eyes are hostile to Troy.
Troy smiles politely at Lucien in a soft voice, “who are you, please?”
Lucien doesn’t pay any attention to Troy. His cold eyes look at everyone present. The two shop
assistants are shocked.
They think that the man just now is terrible. This man is even more terrible. He is a devil!
Lucien lets go of Nina and goes to the fierce shop assistant. He stands there and looks at her. There is
no expression on his face, but his eyes are getting red.
The shop assistant is frightened by his eyes and draws back. She looks at Lucien tremblingly. “It’s not
my fault... She stole...”
Before she has finished speaking, she is punched in the face. The shop assistant suddenly falls to the
ground.
Something comes out of her mouth. She feels her mouth and begins to cry out, “help! He’s going to kill
me! My teeth...”
Lucien stands beside her fiercely. He gently raises his hand and throws the glass partition of clothes on
the floor and smashes it to pieces.
Every time the shop assistant howls, Lucien smashes one thing.
The whole magnificent store has been smashed into a mess.
Abby looks at Lucien who is smashing the shop. She is a little envious. This man is cold but can protect
his girl!
But the girl is Nina. She is becoming more and more disgusted with her.
Lucien is president of Gray Group. He is the most handsome and powerful man in city C. She didn’t
expect him to be Nina’s boyfriend.
Maybe she should try to make friends with him. After all, Gray Group is rich. If Gray Group can help
her, her father’s career will be better.
Abby comes to Lucien and says softly, “President Gray, the shop assistant has suffered enough. Let
her go today. I invite you and Miss Morrison to dinner.”
Lucien looks back. His cold eyes make Abby shiver.
“I’m teaching the shop assistant a lesson. It’s none of your business!” Lucien’s tone is as cool and
domineering as ever.
Abby blushes with embarrassment. Her eyes become colder as she looks at Nina. For this poor girl,
Lucien makes a fool of her in front of Troy!
“Mr. Gray, please be polite.” Troy’s voice is cold and his handsome face is a little white.
He has heard of Lucien for a long time. He has a good head in business. He is very bold and decisive.
He hears that he changes women like clothes. Every woman has a shelf life of no more than seven
days. How could Nina be with such a playful man?
Nina pulls Lucien’s sleeve, “Lucien...” Nina just wants to get out of here. The situation embarrasses her.
She looks up at Troy. He is holding Abby slightly and patting her on the back.
Nina suddenly feels a little sad. She droops her long lashes. At this moment, she realizes that Troy is
Abby’s fiance. He has nothing to do with her.
Troy is just a memory that will never come back.
Lucien throws a vase, smashing the last complete mirror far away. Glass chips are scattered all over
the ground. Lucien hugs Nina’s waist and pulls away.
