NovelEnglish"Okay." Nina nodded obediently and turned to walk inside.
Meanwhile, Aurelia arrived with her bodyguard in tow. She saw Nina emerge from the restroom and head outside alone. When Nina didn't return for a while, Aurelia and her bodyguard followed.
"Nina, what brought you out here all by yourself?" Lilith quickly cup with an excuse, "I... just wanted to wander around a bit." Aurelia didn't think much of it and wrapped an arm around her shoulder, "You can't be wandering off alone, kiddo. If you want to explore, take a bodyguard with you." "Oh." Nina stuck out her tongue playfully.
They walked past a grove of palm trees when they heard crying and arguing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA portly old man was berating a middle-aged woman, and by his side stood a young woman in a bikini, looking quite seductive, probably his mistress.
"You nagging hag, why'd you followhere? Seeing your sour face just ruins my mood," the man spat as he slapped the middle- aged woman, knocking her to the ground in tears.
"I slave away at home, doing laundry, cooking, taking care of the kids, and you're out cavorting with your mistress. How could you do this to me?" the middle-aged woman cried out.
"The fact | haven't given you the boot yet is a miracle in itself. Complain one more time, and you can hit the road.," the man snarled, aiming a kick at the woman who seemed too meek to fight back.
The young woman by his side giggled smugly, caressing the old man's chest, "Honey, don't get so worked up. You don't want to ruin your health over this." The old man pulled her close, unabashed, "You're the only one who gets me." Nina's big eyes spun with curiosity. Without a second thought, she dashed over to them.
"Hey mister, are you guys putting on a show? Are you intecelebrities or something?" The old man glared at her, "Scram, kid. None of your business." "I bet you're intefamous!" she said, turning to the young woman and digging out a green-wrapped chocolate from her pocket, "Miss, you're so pretty. You must be a star. Today's my birthday, so have a chocolate liqueur truffle. My dad brought them from France. You can't find these around here." The young woman lit up her eyes as she accepted the chocolate.
Nina handed another to the old man, "Sir, you look sharp. Are you the pretty lady's boyfriend? Have a chocolate and here's to hoping you two lovebirds make it official." The old man couldn't help but smile at the sweet-talking youngster.
He unwrapped the chocolate and popped it into his mouth.
The young woman ate hers as well. "Not bad for a French chocolate," she commented.
Nina grinned and waved goodbye, "Good luck with your acting. See ya!" Aurelia approached and took Nina's hand, "Kiddo, why did you go over there and give them chocolates out of the blue?" "lI saw scelebrities doing their thing and thought it was fun to say hi," Nina shrugged nonchalantly, her face calm.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAurelia wasn't convinced it was just a performance, given the lack of cameras and crew.
But she chose not to explain this to Nina and quietly led her away.
Back on the beach, Skyler and the three kids were collecting seashells.
Fredric and Jelena were frolicking in the waves.
Nina joined her siblings for a bit before seeing Jelena return to her chair. She approached Jelena.
"Lady Jelena, have a chocolate liqueur truffle." She handed the last green-wrapped chocolate to Jelena.
Mira, ever observant, rushed over.
"Where did you get chocolates from, sister? We didn't bring any with us." Nina glared at her, "lI bought them at the shop just now." "Ooh, | want stoo!" Mira reached out her chubby little hand.
Nina pulled out a red-wrapped chocolate and handed it over, "Here you go, you little glutton."
