You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 134 Kristina Likes Nina



Chapter 134 Kristina Likes Nina

Because of Noah, Kristina had decided to treat Nina in a different way. She now wanted to protect Nina. Kristina glared at Adela in disgust. She really did not understand why Vivian had to make friends with such awful women.

Noticing the disgust in Kristina's eyes, Isabella shook her head. She quickly pulled Adela away and told her to stop talking.

Adela, like most people, was afraid of the three families of Lexingport City. Only then did she realize that she was too imprudent, so she shut up and stood beside Isabella.

Adela threw a cold glance at Nina's direction. How could Nina be afraid of her? She could easily take her down if she ever stepped up to her. Isabella met Nina's icy stare. Under the light, her eyes looked like the eyes of a wolf that was stalking its prey in the night. Isabella trembled so much on her high heels that she almost fell down.

Nina's lips curled up. Was Isabella scared?

"Pleasure to meet you, Director Shen. My name is Nina Lu, a student from L University." Nina stretched out her hand elegantly and gracefully. Tonight, she had come as John's date. She could not let John lose face, so she had to try her best to be as prim and proper as possible.

"You are from L University?" Director Shen raised his eyebrows. Was the girl in front of him the Nina that Noah had mentioned?

Kristina answered for Nina, "Nina is Noah's junior and Professor Gu's disciple, Uncle Shen."

This girl was really the Nina who had cracked the serial murder case.

Director Shen was shocked. He smiled and reached out his hand to shake Nina's. "So you really are Nina. This is such a big surprise. No wonder Professor Gu has accepted you as his disciple. It's

all to your credit that the serial murder case was solved in just two days."

"Thank you, Director Shen. I'm flattered, but I was just doing my job and not by myself I might add. A lot of good people helped me solve the case." Nina was very calm, but the others who were eavesdropping could not stay calm.

"Professor Gu? Are they talking about the famous criminal profiler and psychologist?"

"Yes. Noah used to be the head of the criminal investigation team under Director Shen. I heard that he was transferred to Spring City."

"That woman named Nina is Professor Gu's disciple? That's incredible. All of Professor Gu's disciples are the backbone of the country's criminal justice system."

"Didn't you hear what Director Shen said? Nina took only two days to solve a serial murder case."

"Is she really a woman?" Everybody whispered and could not hide the admiration in their eyes.

"She's a woman from head to toe, all right, but her figure can't be seen because she's wearing an overcoat." "Don't look at her figure. You just look at her face. I'll never be as pretty as she is," a girl said exaggeratedly, but everyone agreed.

Hearing all the discussions around her, Adela felt so scared that her knees threatened to buckle. She never thought that Nina was actually powerful. She thought she was just a worthless, run-of- the-mill campus belle.

Isabella's face turned pale. She had never felt this embarrassed in her entire life. At this moment, she really wanted to stay away from Adela. Why could she make up a story she could not support in front of so many people?

Now, everyone looked at the two of them mockingly as if they were dressed monkeys at a formal party.

"Excuse me. I'm going to the ladies' room," Isabella murmured and left. The shame had started eating at her insides that she actually felt sick.

Adela was left standing there. She seemed to be in a daze from which she could not wake up.

Albert looked Nina up and down with a complex expression. How could she help the police solve the serial murder case?

And how could she do it in such a short period of time?

It seemed that Hailee had been arrested. If found guilty of murder, she would be sentenced to life in prison if not given the death penalty. What a useless thing!

Albert had underestimated Nina. After all, she was the only one who was able to identify the criminal he had cultivated.

"It turns out that you are so powerful and that I don't know anything about you at all in the two years that I've known you." The sinister look in Albert's eyes gradually receded. He smiled gently and joked as if he and Nina were good friends.

Nina pouted and said, "That's because you're so busy every day."

Nina and Albert laughed like they did not have a care in the world. "Nina is worthy of being Professor Gu's disciple. She's excellent, and no one can compare. When the reward is issued, I will have someone send it to you immediately. We appreciate your service." Director Shen was full of praise for Nina.

Kristina was a little stunned. Finding out just now that Nina was one of Professor Gu's disciples, she had a new appraisal of her. When she heard that it took Nina only two days to solve a serial murder case, she could not help admiring her more.

She heard that Noah had solved a serial murder case in three days. Nina was even more superior than he was.

If Nina knew what they were thinking, she would definitely explain. She might have solved the case in two days, but she had spent more than two months looking for clues. Also, she could not have cracked the case without Noah's guidance. She should not get all this credit. She did not do the job by herself.

"So, you're Noah's junior, Nina. You must have a good relationship with him then," Albert teased. He had a plan in his mind.

He knew that John and Nina were living together. The overcoat that Nina was wearing was from an international brand that provided John's clothes. The Time Group was also in the fashion industry, but John preferred his clothes to be customized. Not a lot of people knew that, and that was why they did not recognize Nina's overcoat.

Albert guessed that the two of them had already fallen in love. If that were true, the political marriage between John and Vivian would be halted. If Nina had a special relationship with Noah, the tides could shift in favor of a more complicated situation, which could greatly benefit Albert.

If Nina ignited a conflict between the Shi and Ye families, Albert would just wait on the sidelines until the two giants were done destroying each other. Then, he would take the opportunity to be the ruler of Lexingport City with the Shi and Ye families laying in shambles around him.

"Noah must be so nice to you. Did you know that the customized lollipops you got from him are worth thousands of dollars?" Albert had heard about it from Kristina, so he knew.

"Thousands of dollars? But I bought them from him for only twelve dollars a box." Nina was not even that much into candy, but when she got a taste of the lollipops that Noah made, she was hooked. They were really good.

Also, Noah was selling the lollipops for a good cause and a very reasonable price.

But as it turned out, they were not that cheap.

Kristina said with wide eyes, "Twelve for a box?" She could not even buy the lollipops' wrapping paper for twelve dollars.

With a smile tugging on the corner of his mouth, Albert asked, "How many lollipops are there in a box?"

"Twenty-four." It seemed that the entire room gasped at Nina's answer to Albert's question. She got the designer lollipops for virtually nothing.

Kristina swallowed and felt distressed. Those lollipops of different flavors were designed to effect something different. Some were refreshing, some were for healthcare, some were good for blood circulation, and some were good for blood glucose.

The lollipops usually took half a month to be produced, and they were made by a team of professionals. She paid the team tens of thousands of dollars every month.

And then Noah sold them to the girl for only twelve dollars a box. That was just not right.

"Kristina, Noah must have a thing for Nina," Director Shen whispered in Kristina's ear, patted her shoulder with a smile and then walked away.

Albert also gave her a meaningful look.

Kristina's face lit up. Yes, that made sense now.

Nina was Professor Gu's disciple and Noah's junior. Her status was high because of that. She was beautiful and smart, and could handle cases with Noah.

They were well matched in profession and status.

Was Nina not the perfect wife for Noah?

Kristina was overjoyed. She looked at Nina as if Nina were already Noah's wife. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"What are you thinking about, Aunt?" Kristina snapped back to her senses at Nina's question. Hearing her call her Aunt for the first time felt like a splash of milk and honey on her tongue.

Well, it was done!

Nina called her Aunt. She would be perfect for Noah.
