Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0534

After finishing lunch, I asked Douglas to take me to Jay Caldwell & Co. I needed to discuss a few things with Yasmine.

Nicholas stopped me in front of the car. 'Can't you spare me just half an hour?"

The wind was stronger today, and my words carried a coldness as I spoke.

"I think you should make the most of your time and spend it with Tabitha. You don't have much time to bond with her, and I left her at Coral Villa only because she doesn't reject you. Once I'm done tonight, I'll bring her home."

Nicholas's lips tightened until they were pale. He was silent for a long time before he finally spoke. "I saved you. Can I ask for something in return?"

I lowered my eyes, keeping my tone calm. 'Of course. No matter what, I'm grateful for what you did. If not for you, I'm not sure what would've happened."

'There are things between us that we never cleared up. I have so many questions. If we could resolve them, would it be possible for us to get back together?"
