Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0629

The timing wasn't right. No matter what Nicholas said, I couldn't hear a word of it. Right now, all I could think about was how I'd face him tomorrow or every day after that.

Everything happening now was too much for our current relationship. I couldn't be sure if he'd want to take things further after this. And if he wanted more, what should I do?

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through my waist. Nicholas' restrained voice followed.

"Are you even listening to me? I feel so defeated when you lose focus at a time like this."

"What do you mean, 'at a time like this'? You're the one doing this, not me!

I covered my face in frustration, my voice tinged with an unintentional sob. 'Nicholas, can you hurry up?"

I couldn't wait to leave the examination room.

Nicholas said pitifully, "I can't take it if I make it too fast."

I was speechless. It seemed as if to match his own words, even the sound of fabric rubbing behind me slowed down. Everything became gentle as if he were tenderly caring for something precious.
