Chapter 52 Be Strong
They have breakfast. The atmosphere is quiet and depressing that Nina Morrison just drinks a bowl of
porridge. She can't eat anything.
"I'm full. I'll pick up the chopsticks in a minute." Nina Morrison stands up to leave the table. She is
exhausted and tired.
"Stop!" Lucien Gray says coldly, "Clean the house."
Nina Morrison looks up at Lucien Gray who is drinking the milk expressionlessly. There is a small fire
burning deep in his eyes. Nina Morrison suddenly feels a little frightened. Now Lucien Gray, who is
neither violent nor cold, has made her feel a little afraid.
She knows that he is holding her father's life in his hands so she has to be good. She nods and asks,
"Is there anything else to do?"
Lucien Gray ignores her at all. He stands up and puts down the unfinished breakfast and goes to the
bedroom. He sees Nina Morrison as air.
After that, his attitude towards Nina Morrison is even more alienated. His dark eyes are always filled
with thoughts. Even when he is sitting in the sun, he is covered with a layer of cold.
Nina Morrison is relieved. That's good. He won't harass her anymore. They live together but are
thousands of miles away from each other. It's good to keep distance with Lucien Gray. Nina Morrison is
content with such days.
Nina Morrison does housework actively. Her dad's operation is coming. She must not offend Lucien
Gray during this period. She stoops and is busy cleaning the windows in the room with a rag. Her back
hurts.
Pregnant women should bend down as little as possible and not climb high. But she does both.
Lucien Gray doesn't go to the company today. He lies on the sofa and lazily watches Nina Morrison
doing housework. He commands Nina Morrison to wipe here and there.
Nina Morrison really wants to cry. She really wants to ask, "President, is your company going to close
down? You are so idle. Don't you have to work?"
But Nina Morrison has to give in to him. She cleans the house respectfully and conscientiously. She
rubs the floor diamond-like shine and even outside the window sill is spotless.
Nina Morrison feels she can be elected the top ten maids. But Lucien Gray is not satisfied. At noon he
lies on the sofa and read while Nina Morrison cleans the room.
Suddenly, Nina Morrison feels a chill on her back. She turns her head and looks back and watches
Lucien Gray's deep eyes. Is it an illusion? She even feels that there seems to be a special emotion in
Lucien Gray's eyes which is commonly called "sadness".
Is he sad? Nina Morrison's pink lips open slightly and she looks at Lucien Gray. She trys to see exactly
what is in his eyes.
It's an illusion. For the next second, Lucien Gray squints and says coldly, "Are you perfunctory with
me? Is that how the floor is swept?"
His eyes narrow and it's a sign of his anger.
Nina Morrison pauses and withstands the pain in her waist and whispers, "I'm sorry, I'll clean it again."
Nina Morrison kneels on the cold floor and wipes the top-grade teak floor inch by inch with a rag until it
is as bright as new and the figure can be seen clearly. In this meticulous way, she cleans the living This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
room all morning. When the floor is all cleaned and she stands up, she finds that her back aches and
she is almost unstable.
Nina Morrison rubs her belly and in her heart she encourages the baby in her belly, "Baby, you must be
strong! When your grandfather's operation is finished, I'll take you out of here. I'll never let you suffer
again."
