Mr. Sallow's Sinful Wife by Maisie Chasey

Chapter 184 Shocked Nancy

As expected, an awkward silence fell when Nancy gave her answer.

Nicholas frowned. “Why are you thinking about Madelline?”

“She’s your first love and the woman you love the most. Every time she comes back, you change. You schemed and plotted to divorce me just because of her. Do you think I can really be calm in the face of that?” Nancy muttered.

“Are you worried I’ll be stolen away?” Finally, Nicholas was in a better mood again.

She nodded. “Yes,”

Now, he was no longer angry.

Instead, she was the one who was angry.

He knew she was worried about that, yet he acted like it was nothing.

Suddenly, Nancy was wrapped in a hug.

Nicholas’ hands gently stroked her hair as he looked at her with warm eyes. “My silly girl, she’s already out of the country. She won’t be back again or affect us.”

“What if she comes back one day?” Nancy’s eyes were red with anger. “Will you push me away to return to her embrace?”

“What are you saying? Putting aside the fact that she can’t come back, even if she does, nothing will change. Nancy, all you need to know is that you are the woman I love now. That is enough.”

Nancy did not know if she should believe Nicholas’ words.

In the past, she had always thought the greatest barrier between them was the lack of love. She now realized that even if they loved each other, there were many insurmountable divides between them.

Even at this stage, she did not know if she was making the right decision.

She was utterly lost.

“Who is this Mr. Jadin that woman mentioned just now? Do you like him?” Nicholas abruptly asked as he recalled what happened a few minutes ago.

Nancy immediately shook her head. “It’s nothing. Everyone just misunderstood what’s going on.”

“Oh?” He did not quite believe that.

It’s because Mr. Jadin is single and quite handsome. We bumped into each other a few times, so my colleagues all think I’m doing it on purpose. Now, there are rumors about how I bumped
