This was the first time she had ever done something like this in her life. Her heart wasn't strong enough to take it.

All of a sudden, her heart stopped for a second. Jasper, who hadn't returned for a long time, entered the villa.

Jasper frowned slightly. "What can I do for you?"

"I-I ... You ..." Nina cursed herself for getting tongue-tied now.
