Chapter 120 Stop It (1/2)

At North Yard

As soon as Nina stepped into the living room, Helen felt that something was wrong. Nina looked at John angrily.

”Mrs. Shi, you are back. I can prepare dinner for you now.”

”No, I won't have dinner tonight. I have a headache.” Nina was so angry that she snapped at Helen, which she would not normally do regardless of how she felt. She glared at John as if she was going to pounce on him and rip his head off.

Then, Nina marched upstairs. She stomped loudly enough for everyone to know she was pissed.

Helen ran after her, looking worried. ”A headache? Are you sick, Mrs. Shi? I'll call the family doctor right away.”

”No,” Nina retorted.

”No,” John said at the same time.

”It's just a headache. It isn't serious.”

He would not allow her to go out wearing makeup tomorrow even if she pretended to be sick.

That was not going to happen.

Nina snorted derisively and continued marching upstairs. Her footsteps were still heavy as if she was protesting.

Helen sighed. It was said that the frequency of quarrels between lovers determined the degree of their love for each other. Most normal couples only quarreled every two or three days.

However, John and Nina quarreled nearly every day. They must love each other very much. Helen could not bear witnessing such scenes on a daily basis at her age.
