President's Contract Wife
Chapter 218 I can't Swallow This

Lucien is taking a bath. Nina goes into the kitchen and looks around. She wants to replace some ingredients to make something to eat.

After half a day of toing and froing, she is a little hungry.

The kitchen is well stocked with meat, fish, vegetables and fruits in the fridge. Nina thinks about it and makes the simplest noodles with tomato and egg. Lucien can eat them right after his bath.

The noodles are ready. She puts the noodles in a big bowl and then puts the bowl on the table. Lucien comes out in a bath towel. When he sees the noodles, he laughs happily like a child, "Nina, you really know me well to know I'm hungry, and dinner is ready." Nina glances at his half naked body, "Go and get dressed! Don't spoil my appetite."

Lucien contentedly goes to get dressed. In the middle of his walk, he turns to look at Nina, "Would you like to pick up Nelson tomorrow? I'll take you to the barbecue in the park."

Nina opens her eyes wide with pleasant surprise, "Tomorrow is not the weekend. Don't Nelson need to go to kindergarten?"

Lucien raises his outstretched hands, "I'm going to Bismarck on business at weekends, so I can't take you out."

His tone is like a father taking two children out. It's very sweet in Nina's heart, "You don't have to take us. I can take Nelson out."

Lucien suddenly becomes nervous and comes to hold her shoulder, "Nina, when I'm away, you must not go out at will, much less go out with Nelson alone, got it?"

Nina nods, and she is very upset. Will Jasmine stop so easily?

In the Harris' living room in Bismarck.

Jasmine's eyes are widening in disbelief, "Dad, I was bullied like that by Lucien. How could you let me go back to replace him and make up?"

Aldrich frowns, "Right. You go back to him and make up. You gotta tell him that you doesn't mind his occasional cheating."

Priscilla, the mother of Jasmine, is also surprised, "Aldrich, why is that? Lucien, such an ungrateful thing, dares to bully Jasmine in this way. In my opinion, you can directly pull some strings and make his company bankrupt!"

Aldrich waves his hand, "It's shortsighted. The Gray Family is also very influential. Do you think it's so easy to break Lucien? It needs to be planned slowly. Besides, I think Lucien is a good choice for my son-in-law. Although he is arrogant, he is really talented, and the Gray Group has been developing rapidly. It is a good choice for Jasmine to marry him. With the marriage between official and businessman, it will be convenient for us to launder money in the future."

Priscilla has been trembling angrily, "Aldrich, how can you sacrifice the life-long happiness of our daughter? They are not married yet, but Lucien has got a mistress. Who knows what else he will do after they get married in the future?"

Aldrich doesn't care, "It's just philandering with a woman! In a few days, he'll get bored. Lucien is a businessman. How can he give up Jasmine for that woman? Just think about it."

With that, he turns to Jasmine and says, "Jasmine, if you want to marry Lucien to be the president's wife of the Gray Group and enjoy a lifetime of riches and honor, you just bear it for the present."

Jasmine thinks for a long time, and then says haltingly, "Dad, I do like Lucien and really want to marry him, but I can't get over it!"
