President's Contract Wife
Chapter 85 Care about You

Lucien's words stun Nina.

How could he ask that? How could he say love to her?

Is he ill? Doesn't he just want women's bodies? Why does he want women's hearts? Lucien, you're too greedy!

I'm just your mistress. I'm just a commodity. When my father's operation is finished, we will not owe each other. You talk to me about love? Sorry, you don't have that qualification. My heart is not for sale. Nina shakes her head and says firmly, “No. I don't love you."

Lucien's hand clenches under the quilt. He suddenly turns to sit up and looks down at Nina's face from above. There is a faint anger in his voice. "What did you say? Say it again!"

Nina's moist eyes look at him coldly. "I will not change my answer. Lucien, I don't love you!"

Lucien is very angry. His thin lips purse a cruel arc. He lifts Nina's chin with his big hand. "Do you know the consequences of your remark?"

Nina looks at him bravely. "I'm just your mistress. I've never heard of a master wanting a mistress's heart. You are too greedy."

Lucien's mad. As soon as Nina finishes speaking, he slaps her hard! He is so strong that Nina is hit on the other side of the bed!

Nina's eyes are blurry. Her ears are buzzing and there is a fishy smell in his mouth. She touches her face with her hand, but she has no sense at all! She's numb!

Her face swells in a flash. Yesterday's bruise makes her face miserable!

"Mistress? I'll let you know what a real mistress is!" Lucien says coldly. He presses the bell by the bed.

"What can I do for you, young master?" Ryan's voice comes from the loudspeaker.

"Ryan, get the handcuffs and fetters!" Lucien's voice is cold. Nina freezes. What are handcuffs and fetters? What does Lucien want to do?

Ryan takes the handcuffs and shackles and respectfully gives them to Lucien. He gives Nina a sympathetic look. She annoyed young master. Young master is very kind to her. He gave her a very expensive necklace. After her disappearance, young master didn't eat or drink for a day or a night. What happened? Why does it seem that young master wants to lock her up?

"Get out of here!" Lucien gives Ryan a cold look. Ryan is so scared that he slips out.

"Lucien, what are you doing!" Nina is so scared that she hugs her body and desperately shrinks to the corner!

Lucien says coldly, "lock you up. Don't run around. Since you are a mistress, follow the rules. Don't forget I bought you!" "You pervert! You're crazy!" Nina struggles, but she can't fight at all. Lucien is too strong. Her hands and feet are locked! "Lucien, you lunatic! I'm your mistress! But isn't mistress free at all?" Nina shouts angrily.

"Freedom?" Lucien stares at her, "Nina, you're not free in your life!"

Lucien's words make Nina's fantasy disappear.

"Paige!" Lucien calls Paige in to wash Nina's face. He goes downstairs.

Nina stares at Lucien's back. There is a fire in her eyes.

Paige sighs when he sees Nina. "Miss Morrison, you need to understand young master. He's afraid you're missing again. He was worried after you were kidnapped."

Nina sneers. "He's worried about me? He's worried about losing his dog! He's just an inhuman beast!"

"Miss Morrison, don't say that. Young master is a little grumpy. In fact, young master cares about you very much. Otherwise he wouldn't let so many people look for you." Paige defends Lucien. "If he cares about me, will he beat me like this?" Nina looks up. Her face is still bruised.

Paige sighs heavily. "Young master is very angry so he did it. As long as you are obedient, he will let you go in a few days if he isn't angry."

"Obedient? Whether I obey or not is the same. Anyway, I'm one of his pets. He is good to me when he is in a good mood. When he is in a bad mood, he will beat and scold me!"

Pet? She's not even a pet. Which owner will beat the pet like this and lock it up? Nina gives a wry smile.

Nina's nose suddenly stings. She sits by the window, bending her legs slowly. She hugs her knees with her hands, forming a crouching self-protection position.

Yesterday's time with Troy becomes her only comfort. Although that time is short, it is beautiful and warm. It is like a sun shining into her dark and painful life.

Nina looks at the cold, metallic handcuffs on her arms and the fetters on her ankles, biting her lips. She raises her head and blinks hard not to let the tears come out. She will never cry for Lucien again! He doesn't deserve it!

Her face hurts and her back is bruised. Lucien was too strong yesterday. This is the worst time he has ever hit her. Two slaps yesterday and just now almost disfigure her face. Her eyes are so swollen that they can't open!

Paige sighs. Young master is a little too much this time. Miss Morrison is pregnant. How could he hit her like this!

Paige comes to Nina with a cold towel. "Miss Morrison, I'll help you reduce the swelling."

Nina doesn't move. She is like a dull wooden man. Paige puts the cold towel gently on her face. There is ice in the towel. The coolness eases the sting on her face.

"Bang!"

The door is suddenly kicked open from the outside! Lucien stands at the door with a gloomy face. His bleak eyes glare at Paige. "Get out!"

"Yes, young master." Paige says respectfully. She takes a sympathetic look at Nina and walks out from Lucien with a towel.

At the door, Paige looks back and gives Nina a worried look.

"Bang!" Lucien closes the door. The loud noise makes Nina's ears hurt a little.

Nina lowers her head and eyes. She is watching her hands locked together. She doesn't look at Lucien at all.0000000
