Chapter 473: I Speak Harshly
Margaret was taken aback by Nina's cold response.
Margaret had prepared a lot of persuasive words, thinking it would be hard to convince Nina.
Unexpectedly, before Margaret even started persuading, Nina had already given a resolute answer.
This was quite out of character for Nina.
Before Margaret could think further, there was a sudden thud behind her.
Richard forcefully pushed open the door and strode in.
Before Margaret could react, he had already picked Nina up from the bed and walked out.
By the time Margaret chased after them, Richard was already taking Nina down in the elevator.
There was no one else in the elevator.
Nina only came to her senses after the door closed, "Richard, what are you doing?"
The man didn't speak, his firm jawline tightened, and he seemed colder than usual.
Nina waited for a long time without getting a response. She grabbed his collar, straightened her legs, and tried to break free from him.
Richard probably didn't expect her to do this and was caught off guard, so she actually managed to jump down.
He reacted quickly, almost as soon as Nina's feet touched the ground, he grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
Nina's back hit the elevator wall, the dull sound seemed to shake the entire elevator.
"Let go of me." Nina struggled, but her hands were quickly pinned down by Richard.
"Richard, you bastard, let go of me! Do you hear me?" Nina angrily kicked at him, her knee almost hitting Richard's groin.
Fortunately, Richard dodged in time, bending his long legs forward and spreading Nina's legs apart.
Nina couldn't move now, and she was pinned against the wall by Richard in a very awkward position.
Richard leaned in, his voice hoarse, "You almost made me sterile just now!"
"I don't care if I'm sterile. Aren't you afraid it will affect your happiness for the rest of your life?" He hinted, a teasing smile on his lips.
Nina glared at him, "My happiness for the rest of my life is to never be involved with a bastard like you again!"
Nina's words were hurtful.
Richard's eyes tightened, "Nina, don't say such harsh things to me."
Nina turned her head away, "You're the one who keeps pestering me. I have even harsher words I haven't said yet."
"Oh? Then go ahead, I'd love to hear how harsh you can be."
Nina's chest heaved, holding back her anger, "Richard, there's no way for us. Even if you die in front of me now, I wouldn't blink an eye, let alone shed a tear."
Before she could finish, Richard silenced her with a kiss.
All of Nina's angry and hurtful words were swallowed back by Richard's kiss.
Nina was completely under his control, unable to fight back at all, just being kissed hard by him.
"Ding"
The elevator reached a floor, and the door opened.
Someone outside, carrying a bag of medicine, was about to walk in. As soon as they stepped in, they saw this intense scene and paused.
Nina also saw her, it was Kelsey, who had just gotten the medicine and was about to go upstairs.
Seeing this scene, Nina was mortified.
But she couldn't push Richard away, so she steeled herself and bit down when Richard was off guard.
Richard let out a muffled groan and finally let go of Nina's lips.
At the same time, blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.
He licked his injured lip, and upon noticing Kelsey's presence, he let go of Nina. But as he released her, he clasped her fingers tightly.
One by one, their fingers interlocked.
He probably feared Nina would run, so he held on tightly.
Kelsey came to her senses, her face blushing, "Nina, you guys..."
Nina took a step towards Kelsey, but because Richard was holding her hand, she could only take that one step and stand there, "Kelsey, I'll go up with you."
Richard still didn't let go.
Kelsey said, "Okay."
Nina was still wearing the hospital gown, so Kelsey thought she was just seeing Richard off.
Kelsey pressed the open button, the elevator door opened, but Richard showed no intention of getting out.
Kelsey turned to look, "Richard? Aren't you getting out?"
"Get out! Of course, he has to get out!" Nina used all her strength to move him a bit.
Nina knew that if Richard didn't want to leave, no one could make him.
Were they going to stay stuck here?
Or would Nina be forcibly taken back to the villa?
Nina didn't want to go back with him.
Nina bit her lip, thinking.
Richard was a ruthless person.
The only way to deal with a ruthless person is to be even more ruthless.
If she kept being weak, she would never shake him off.
She didn't want to be entangled, just wanted to end it.
So, Nina had to harden her heart.
If Richard insisted on taking her back, she would have to threaten with her life.
Either she dies, or they die together!
Thinking of this, a resolute look flashed in Nina's eyes.
She looked up and met Richard's gaze, "What exactly do you want to do?"
Her tone was cold.
Nina's tone scared Kelsey a bit.
"Nina." Kelsey called weakly, then stood aside, acting like an invisible person, not daring to ask or say anything more.
Richard silently stared at Nina for a moment, then suddenly let go of her tightly clasped hand.
Nina immediately walked over to Kelsey's side.
Richard lowered his eyes, his voice tinged with helplessness and disappointment, "I'll come see you tomorrow."
Nina wanted to say, you don't need to come.
Not tomorrow, not the day after, not any day in the future.
But Nina was afraid of provoking him.
It was hard to get a moment of peace, she couldn't afford to stir things up again.
Get him to leave first, then deal with the rest.
"I'm leaving." Richard pressed the open button again, gave Nina a deep look, and then walked out.
The elevator door closed again, Kelsey pressed the button to go up, and turned to see Nina looking a bit dazed, "Nina?"
"I'm fine." Nina snapped back, but she still didn't look right.
At night, Zaire and Kelsey stayed to keep watch.
It was already very late.
Nina tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
The hospital room was a luxury suite, Nina and Kelsey slept inside, and Zaire slept on the sofa in the outer living room.
At this hour, Kelsey was already asleep, her light snores echoing in the quiet air.
Nina's mind was about to explode from thinking, and she felt thirsty, so she took a cup to get some water outside.
A wall lamp was on outside, and Zaire was lying on the sofa playing with his phone.
Seeing her come out, Zaire immediately sat up, "Nina, still not asleep?"
"No." Nina nodded, walked past him, and stood there drinking water.
Zaire was texting someone, his phone kept buzzing intermittently.
Nina drank her water and went back to the room. Just as she lay down, a sudden idea struck her.
She sat up again, "I have an idea!"
