Chapter 1640

Nikita kept quiet and let her vent. Then she spoke in a calm voice, “Going after someone just because of their looks comes with a price.”

Nacy was taken aback and responded indignantly, “Aren’t you guilty of the same thing? You can’t tell me you’re with your hubby Sheehan not because of his good looks!”

Nacy knew Nikita very well.

If Sheehan wasn’t so handsome, would Nikita be with him?

Nikita didn’t deny it. “Yes, I went after him because he’s attractive, and I’ve paid the price too.”

“You’ve paid the price?” Nacy exclaimed, “Don’t play innocent when you’ve got the upper hand.

Sheehan is head over heels for you, ready to pluck the stars and moon from the sky if you ask him to!”

“What exactly did you have to pay?”

Nikita pursed her lips.

Of course… it was a price that couldn’t be spoken of.

Not only were her legs sore lately, but her back was aching too.

Sheehan was becoming more and more unbearable.

To some extent, Nikita regretted letting him get a taste of that particular sweetness that night and ever since then, there was no stopping him.

If she had known he had such poor self-control, she wouldn’t have…

Never mind, it was too late for regrets.

Nikita planned to escape abroad for a while and she had to keep this a secret from Sheehan. Her flight was already booked for tomorrow morning.

“Do you want to go abroad for a few days?” Nikita originally planned to go alone, but now she thought it wouldn’t hurt to bring someone else.

Nacy was instantly excited, “Of course I do! But..”

She lowered her voice, “Sampson is always home and keeps a close eye on me. I need to come up with a good excuse to leave.”

Nikita replied, “My flight is tomorrow morning at 10:30. I’ll wait for you at the airport. We’ll probably be abroad for a week. If you can make it, we can go together.”

As soon as Nikita hung up, Sheehan walked into the bedroom.

“Are you done with work?” Thinking about her “sudden departure” tomorrow, Nikita walked towards Sheehan and hugged him.

Sheehan embraced her with a slight surprise. She had been avoiding him recently, so her initiative was somewhat unusual today.

“Yep.” Sheehan was a bit surprised by her behavior, but didn’t think much of it, “I promised you I’d cook for you today, so I finished my work as soon as I could.

What would you like to eat?”

Nikita thought for a moment, “Salt-baked shrimp, spicy diced chicken, tomato fish, sweet and sour ribs, and braised beef brisket. You can decide the rest.”

Thinking about how she wouldn’t be able to eat his cooking while she was abroad, Nikita didn’t hold back and ordered five dishes.

Sheehan left her on the couch, ‘I’ll check if we have enough ingredients. Play for a while and I’ll call you when dinner’s ready.”

As usual, Nikita asked, “Do you need any help?”

There was no way Sheehan would let her help. He handed her the phone that she had left on the couch, “Play some games. If you want to help, just eat more later.”
