Nola was puzzled that after going through the same thing, Elvis was able to go to work in high spirits while she had a sore back and just wanted to sleep.

She tugged on his hand and looked at him with a pitiful expression. “Bad man!” She said angrily.

Elvis was not angry. “If you’re tired, get some rest.” In this way, he didn’t have to worry about Nola going out and doing something bad.

Nola didn’t know what Elvis was worried about. She wasn’t convinced that she had compromised and still hadn’t gotten the answer she wanted.

“We agreed on an answer exchange. You haven’t told me how old you are?”

Elvis smiled and kissed her smooth forehead, stroking her head and dotingly saying, “I married the best you at the right time. Good girl! I’m off to the office.”

Nola thought for a moment, not understanding the answer he was hiding in those words. But Elvis had slipped away.

She thought that she was cunning, and now she had met an even more cunning Elvis. She remembered what Linda had said and worried about her future family status.

It seemed like she would always be conquered by Elvis.

It shouldn’t be so miserable, right?

She went back to sleep. When she woke up again, she was still wondering about Elvis‘ age. When she saw Alisa, she thought of an idea. She could ask someone, though Elvis didn’t tell her.

Alisa must know how old Elvis was.

At breakfast, she asked about it. Alisa told her that Elvis‘ birthday was at the end of May, and he would be exactly twenty- nine next May.

So, he was twenty–eight now. He was five years older than her. No wonder, he was so good at taking care of her.

She was satisfied after getting the answer.

She was proud that she had found the answer, even though he didn’t tell her.
