Chapter 321: Actions And Words.
Arissa was stunned at Nicklaus’s words. Her face turned red and the butterflies in her stomach set themselves free and rejoiced in her.
Possessive already?
Woah! She screamed in her thoughts. She loved where all of this was going. He sounded like he wanted her to be his forever and her body had jolts of electricity passing through her bones, making sure the happiness in her heart got into every one of them.
She felt a bit overwhelmed and confused by the turns of events. Nicklaus has always been possessive but this level was another higher level of it.
"I_"
She was cut off from her words by the opening of the door ward and immediately, her mood switched from excited to alert.
She prepared her feet to sit up swiftly and walk away if it should be her mother but when the person appeared, she recognized the person to be Collins as he walked out of the door.
Remembering the awkward moment they had exchanged ever since she came into the hospital, she gave him a bit of her attention but withdrew her gaze momentarily and concentrated her gaze on her phone.
Collins was hurt by her action and when she stared back at her phone, Arissa blocked the side of her screen with her other palm so Collins would not catch a glimpse of Nicklaus from where he stood.
Nicklaus noticed this short moment of distraction from her and asked, "Who’s that?" he felt her attention to be on someone else and not something else.
"Collins," she replied and then she brought her mouth closer to the phone and said, "Go into the bath, please." her voice was in the lightest whisper.
