Chapter 21 Let It Go

Nolan pushed open the bathroom door and went out. Peyton had just collected her hair over the bed. She was startled by Nolan. She looked at him and said guiltily, “You…”

Before she could finish her words, she realized Nolan was bare- chested. He was in good shape.

Although Nolan was her husband, Peyton still felt strange to see Nolan naked after a year. She looked away quickly.

Nolan came closer. She could feel his breath. Peyton unconsciously curled up her body and stared at him with a protective face. “What are you going to do?”

Nolan slowly bent down, and his deep gaze fell on her pale cheek. He asked, “You said you were sick before. What is it?”

Peyton said to Nolan, “Nothing. I got a bad cold and spent several days in the hospital.”

Nolan remembered the bouquet of withered flowers in their wedding house. He thought, “Well, so Peyton didn’t come back for a few days because she had a cold.”

It had been three months since their last phone call. Nolan had no idea when Peyton was in the hospital.
