Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0119

In the end, we didn't get to go to the police station, but Nicholas and I didn't do anything other than the kiss we shared in the car.

Today, Claudia didn't go to school at all. She intended to spend some private time with Nicholas, only to be interrupted by Francis.

Then, she chose to lash out at me. "Ariana, Nicholas is exhausted from his work every day. Can you stop causing trouble for him?

I was about to grab myself some salad from the salad bowl when I heard Claudia's outburst. My fingers rubbed the fork I was holding, albeit longingly, before I set everything I held down. Nicholas narrowed his eyes slightly. He put down his cutlery as well.

"I'll wire 5,000 dollars into your account as your allowance. If that's not enough, I'll wire more money into your account."

"Ariana!" Nicholas frowned deeply, his eyes narrowed dangerously. "You should-"
