I went back to the living room and asked Nicholas, “Why is there only so little food here? Is there

something else?”

“I guess not. I live here alone. As you know, not many men know how to cook. I usually order takeout or

I'll eat outside. But I don't think there will be any takeout service at this hour.”

Nicholas shrugged helplessly.

Heaving a sigh, I dragged my feet back to the kitchen. I figured I could whip up a bowl of noodles.

Even though that might sound a little too simple for someone like him, the most important thing now

was to fill his stomach. I was somewhat relieved as it did not take long to cook a bowl of noodles. All I

wanted was to fulfill my obligation and go home right after that.

After I was done preparing the dish, I brought it over to Nicholas.

If it wasn't for the fact that he got beaten up for me, I doubt I would be willing to cook for him. After all, it

was awkward for me to do so based on our current relationship.

Seeing the bowl of noodles in my hand, Nicholas raised his brows. But he did not seem to be disdained

by it.

“It smells nice. I bet it's delicious.”

He flashed me a gentle smile before picking up his fork to eat.

“Enjoy. I'll clean up and leave once you're done.”

“You only cooked one portion. You have not eaten dinner too, right? Aren't you hungry?”

He was puzzled to see me not eating anything.

“I'm not hungry.”

After all that happened earlier, I no longer had any appetite.

“You look unhappy. Is it because of Michael?”

Nicholas paused after eating a few bites.

“I don't want to talk about it tonight. I'm exhausted.”

I knew that I would get emotional again if I mentioned Michael. Hence, I chose not to touch on the

topic.

“Okay. I won't mention it if you don't like it.”

He did not press further on the topic. He simply lowered his head and continued digging in.

Probably due to the fact that he was actually famished, he finished the bowl of noodles in the blink of

an eye.

After cleaning up, I grabbed my coat, preparing to leave.

Yet, at that moment, Nicholas grabbed my hand. I was forced to turn around and face him, only to see

that he was looking at me with a profound expression.

I did not know why but I felt extremely awkward. I shook off his grip and tried to keep the distance

between us.

“Is there anything else?”

I frowned slightly, my tone indifferent.

“Why don't you stay here tonight?” Nicholas uttered in a low voice.

I could see that he had a strange expression on his face.

Being an adult that already had sexual encounters before, I knew right away what he was implying.

As I looked into his eyes, I started to panic. Without hesitation, I rejected him, “I'm not going to stay. I've

got to go. You should rest early.”

It never crossed my mind to start a sexual relationship with him. Plus, there were only the two of us in

the house. I was worried that something might happen.

As I turned around to leave, he hugged me from behind.

Even though he was injured, there was still no way I could defeat a man's strength. No matter how hard

I struggled, I could not free myself from his hug.

“Nicholas, let go of me. Don't be like this!”

I struggled desperately as anxiousness filled my heart. His behavior was frightening me.

Even though I have had sex countless times, I did not want to do it with someone I did not like.

“Anna, you've accepted my proposal today. Sooner or later, we will be together. So please just stay

here tonight.”

His tone was heavy with desire and impatience.

I had known him for around one year. I knew he was a decent man, and he seldom hung out with

women. As a man, it was only natural he would have sexual desire. I understood that. Nevertheless, I

did not want to have sex with him.

“Nicholas, I know what you mean. But I won't stay. Our relationship is not at that kind of level yet. Plus,

I only treat you as a friend.”

How could I possibly do such a thing with a friend?

“A friend? How could that be? You've already accepted my proposal. You are my fiancée now. We are

no longer friends. In fact, we will get married and have children in the future.”

Upon hearing what I said, he got slightly emotional.

I was overwhelmed with frustration as I stared at him. Initially, I wanted to wait until tomorrow to explain

to him. However, judging from his behavior, I felt I needed to explain everything clearly to him right

then.

I shook his hand off and looked at him sternly. “Nicholas, I only accepted your proposal because I didn't

want Michael to look down on us. I wasn't thinking straight. It was a reckless decision of mine and I feel

like I need to be honest with you now.”

Thinking back, I could only blame myself for accepting Nicholas' proposal. After all, I only did it to piss

Michael off. I could not believe I had made such a hasty decision and put myself in a troublesome spot.

Upon hearing that, Nicholas frowned. His gaze was filled with disappointment. “Do you mean to say

that you accepted my proposal not because you wanted to but because Michael was present?”

There was a trace of anger in his voice as he spoke. Being a man, it was natural that he would have his

pride to uphold. As such, I knew it would be hard for him to accept the truth that I only accepted his

proposal because of another man.

Looking at his piercing gaze, I lowered my head with guilt. I should not have mentioned Michael in front

of him. Nonetheless, I had no choice but to explain everything to him right there and then.

“I'm sorry. I acted recklessly and made you misunderstand. It's my fault.”

I knew his feelings for me, yet I used him to piss Michael off. It was reasonable for him to feel angry

now. I did not blame him. I only blamed myself.

“Stop saying that you're sorry. Anna, be honest with me. Are you still thinking of Michael? Are you still

holding hope for him?”
