Nina looked over and asked, "Mr. Romeo, did I put too much pepper?"
"Nope, it's fine." Tory smiled like a gentleman. "It tastes good."
Nina also smiled. "Um, my father just called yesterday, and he would like to know when will you be free?"
"We can talk about business when we're back in Italy," Tory said, and cut off a piece of steak, then put it into his mouth.
The smile froze on Nina's face. She nodded and asked again when she raised her coffee. "What if it's something personal?"
She had been by Tory's side for a whole year till now, and she was the only woman who could stay by his side for so long.
Tory was also very generous to her and willing to satisfy her any needs as to the basic necessities of life.
Therefore, she didn't care about her title.
However, ever since Kylie had appeared, she suddenly had a strong sense of crisis.
Tory never allowed anyone to call him his given name, but Kylie could. Except that Tory even had prepared breakfast for Kylie in person but told her it was cooked by the chef.
Ben was attached to Kylie very much now, so Nina thought Tory might soon dump her because of Kylie.
Tory chewed the steak at a slow pace. He didn't open his mouth again until he swallowed it down. "No personal affairs."
Nina was disappointed and mad but didn't dare show her real feelings on her face.
After lunch, she went back to their room and flushed all the rest of the birth control pills down the toilet.
Even if she couldn't stay by Tory's side forever, she at least should carry his baby. In that case, they would be connected to each other permanently.

Kylie wanted to go out with Ethan but gave the idea up once she remembered his brothers' suspicions of her.
"Take care and take medicines," she said to him with worries.
Ethan reached out his arm from the car window and smoothed Kylie's hair. "Take care of yourself too."
"I will." Kylie watched the car leaving her sight, then called Lucas.
When she asked Lucas about the 20 thousand dollars she told him to give Faith face to face, Lucas stammered, "I-I did. I gave it to her, and she felt happy."
"Oh, really?" Kylie had a cup of warm milk in her palm. "I met Faith yesterday."
"Oh." Lucas stiffened in anxiety.
"If you need money, you can just tell me." Kylie sipped her milk. "Why did you do that to Faith?"
Lucas knelt down before Kylie all of a sudden.
"Kylie, I'm sorry. I-I'm so sorry. I didn't know what to do." He cried. "M-My boyfriend. He..."
Kylie stared at him. Lucas's boyfriend was involved in politics. Was it possible that his boyfriend was caught?
"Calm down, and tell me everything." Kylie pulled him up.
"However, he changed afterward and easily lost his temper. He refused to work, nor eat, and swore at me all day at home."
"Is the nightclub named the Earth Nightclub?" Kylie squeezed the cup in her hands.
"Right, it is the Earth Nightclub!" Lucas continued, "I got to know it was the side effect of the magical pill later, so I tied him up at home. I did everything to help him get rid of it but failed."
"I didn't have the heart to see him being tortured by it, and you gave me much money that time, so I went to buy a magical pill at the Earth Nightclub with it."
Kylie understood how hard it was to get rid of the magical pill and got worried. "How is he now?"
"He went back to normal after taking a pill but got worse within a week! I..." Lucas glanced at Kylie with a feeling of guilt.
"I admit that I had a bad idea in my mind and wanted to embezzle some money to buy more pills for him, but the magical pill was out of stock all of a sudden."
"I was afraid he would cause more trouble, so I tied him up again at home."
"The magical pill is back on the market now, and its price is much lower, s-so I used my savings to buy a few for him. He can go to work like a normal person now."
Knowing that, Kylie sighed. The magical pill indeed was very harmful.
"Well, just take the money as the reward for your job," Kylie said at the end.
"What? Are you going to fire me?" Lucas knelt down before Kylie once again. "Please, I promise I didn't embezzle a cent at all!"
Kylie put the cup on the table and pulled Lucas up. "I'm not going to fire you, but you should have a long vacation," Kylie said with a serious face. "The magical pill is a kind of addictive drug, and you have to help him get rid of it as soon as possible."
"But..." Lucas was anxious.
"You're killing him by letting him take it." Kylie looked at Lucas. "Think about it twice."
Lucas wiped his eyes. When he walked outside, he turned around to glance at Kylie once in a while.
Lucy came out of the kitchen at this moment. "Mrs. Parker, you're really a good kind person."
"Lucy, I'm just a woman," Kylie said.
Before Ethan left home, he arranged many bodyguards to protect Kylie 24/7.
Even though Kylie wanted to keep a low profile, she became the focus of people wherever she showed up.
She planned to meet Faith in a café, but the café was directly cleared.
"Kylie, Lord Ethan, treats you so well." Faith was envious.
"Ken will treat you so well too once he's out of jail." Kylie smiled.
Faith pulled her lips. "Does he have the ability to clear a whole café?"
Kylie was surprised and looked at her. Faith realized she shouldn't have said that. "Um, I was just joking. As long as two people are in love, they will feel happy no matter what they're doing together."
Kylie didn't say a word.
"Kylie, I know I've made a terrible mistake, and you probably won't forgive me, but..." Faith moved a little near to Kylie, "I just want to stay by your side, even if I can only help you carry your bags."
"Sorry, I don't have work these days, and there is no need to carry my bags," Kylie said and declined.
Faith thought for a while before she opened her mouth again, "Well, I know you're still mad at me because I left you for Vivian, but..." She looked around the bodyguards. "Your bodyguards are all men. Don't you need a female by your side?"
Kylie smiled. "Faith, be honest with me. Did someone bribe you?"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Nina looked over and asked, "Mr. Romeo, did I put too much pepper?"
"Nope, it's fine." Tory smiled like a gentleman. "It tastes good."
Nina also smiled. "Um, my father just called yesterday, and he would like to know when will you be free?"
