Chapter 130 Chapter 130 Huh? Noelle blinked innocently at Nicolass suspicimis gaze, then shook her head earnestly.
Not I really wanted a bath, but then I thought of this ides, so I figured Id ask you to help me.
Its like going with the flow, you know? Youre such a smooth talker, Nicolas said, poking her forehead lightly Inut carefully.
Nick, help me, help me, Nick, Nick, Nick, please, please, please! Noelle clunted like a broken record. She was like a piece of sticky candy- once she latched onto you, there was no shaking her off.
Nicolas had no choice but to give in.
If he refused, shed probably pester him about it all day.
The thought alone was exhausting.
Finally, he sighed in defeat Alright, lets go.
Noelle cheered, Yay! Bath t! Bath time? In the bathroom.
Noelle stripped down and draped herself over the edge of the bathtub like a contented kitten, letting Nicolas wash her with slow, centle strokes.
His careful tender touch had her humming in pleasure.
Her soft, sweet murmurs were pure temptation, pushing Nicolass self control to the brink Nicolas felt like he must have owed her in a past life, and now she was here to torment him.
He was a normal, healthy man, and having the person he loved naked in front of him, making such inviting sounds, was an immense challenge.
But no matter how strong his urges, he wasnt about to take advantage of her while she was injured.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter silently reciting every moral principle he could think of to no avail, Nicolas decided to distract himself by starting a about those assassins from yesterday any idea who sent them? Any enemies you can think of? Hmun Noelle tilted her head, pausing her humming. Not really a conversation.
Elly babe.
The fact that the attackers were also from the lab had surprised her.
Even more surprising was that someone had hired them to kill her. Any suspects? Nicolas pressed Ive had a lot of enemies in the past, but Im not sure who is could be.
Nicolass expression darkened, Could it be because your photo was released by the company, drawing attention ? Probably not, Noelle shook her head.
For dangerous jobs like being a spy, assassin, or mercenary, I never revealed my identity.
And in other industries where I did show my face.
I dont think I made any enemies.
So its unlikely to be an old enemy seeking revenge, Nicolas mused, his eyes narrowing, Could it be Lela ? Noelle had been in the spotlight lately, and jealousy might drive Leia to do something extreme.
But Noelle shook her head again.
Doubt it.
Leia doesnt have the connections for that The assassins were from the lab, and someone like Leia, who lived a normal life, wouldnt have access to such people.
Sull, Nicolas wasnt convinced.
We should investigate Leia anyway, see if shes been in contact with anyone suspicious Okay.
Noelle nodded.
After what felt like an eternity, Nicolas finally finished bathing Noelle.
He wrapped her in a large towel and carried her back to the bedroom.
The scene felt Lamiliar, The Last tNoelle had been in a similar situation was when shed stayed over at Dumons place and ended up with Nicolas.
That night, theyd crossed a line As the saying goes, A well fed mind wanders to mischief Noelle couldnt help but recall that night, and her thoughts quickly took a naughty turn.
When Nicolas bent down to place her on the bed, Noelle suddenly grabbed his arm.
What now ! Nicolas looked down at her, noticing the mischievous glint in her eyes Noelle grinned eagerly.
Nick, I want to do o what we did last time.
Chapter 130 A heavy sigh escaped Nicolas.
The moment he saw that sparkle in her eyes, he knew she was up to no good.
He set her down and flicked her forehead lightly.
What are you thinking? Youre still injured.
Dont push your luck.
Whats the big deal Noelle pouted, refusing to let go.
My wounds already healing.
Once it scabs over, itll be gone in a few days, no scar left! Lets wait until youre fully healed, okay? Nicolas replied, trying to stick to his principles.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUghhh Noelle let out a small groan, clearly disappointed.
She leaned in, whispering in a teasing tone, Nick, are you ... not up for it Shed read in a magazine that men his age were supposed to be at their peak. Yet, he kept turning her down. According to the magazine, if a man kept refusing woman, it was either because he didnt like her or because he had...
performance issues.
Nicolas raised an eyebrow.
His eye t twitched as he looked at her, forcing a smile.
You little troublemaker, what kind of nonsense have you been Supe Its not nonsense! Noelle crossed her arms, defending her source.
Its full of life truths every woman should know ! Nicolas sighed.
Shed clearly been misled.
No more of those trashy magazines, got it! Why? Noelle frowned, clearly not happy with his decision.
Because I said so, Nick snapped back, his patience wearing thin Humph Noelle huffed, then added slyly, Nick, if youre really having trouble, you should see a doctor.
Dont be embarrassed! The magazine said men often ignore their problems because of pride, and then it gets worse! Her constant jabs about his performance were pushing Nicolas to his limit.
Hed been restraining himself all this tout of concern for her injury and now she had the audacity to question his capabilities! His eyes darkened as he leaned over her, his voice low and dangerous. You really want to push me, huh? Nick Noelle blinked up at him, sensing the shift in his demeanor.
His body temperature seemed to rise, his breathing growing heavier.
Nicolas closed the distance between them, his dark eyes locking onto hers.
A sly smile spread across his handsface as le murmured.
Elly babe, looks like the last lesson wasnt enough, he muttered, his tone low and dangerous Fine, lets see if we can make this a real lesson.
