Seven Days Seven Nights

Chapter 109 Something Different About Nancy

“Nicholas….” Madelline grabbed Nicholas’ hand with a pitiful expression. “Are you leaving already?”

“Since you’re fine, it’s improper for me to stay. It’s even more improper for me to stay overnight. I told you. I’m married, and you’re not. It won’t be good for either one of us if I stay here. Alice can accompany you.”

“Call me if you need something.”

As soon as Madelline heard that, she burst into tears. “You believe those photos, don’t you, Nicholas?”

“You think I’m a sl’t who goes around seducing men, don’t you?”

“Sob… It’s not true. Those photos are all fake, Nicholas. No matter where I am, you’re the only one I love.”

Madelline cried her heart out, but Nicholas only felt irritated..

He couldn’t wait to leave. He was worried about Nancy.

He shoved Madelline’s hand away and said curtly. “It doesn’t matter if they’re real or fake. I’ll help you suppress the news.”

“What did you say? It’s not important?” Madelline stared at Nicholas in disbelief.

Why wouldn’t a woman’s reputation be important to a man?

Don’t all men want a woman with a clean reputation?

He said it’s not important.

Does this mean he really doesn’t want me anymore?

“You don’t want me anymore, right, Nicholas?” Madelline looked up at him as tears streamed down her cheeks.

“I have a wife,” Nicholas declared solemnly.

“A wife?” Madelline scoffed. “How is she your wife? She’s just a pawn. Why are you willing to be with her instead of me? How am I not as good as her, Nicholas?”

“You’re great, but she’s my wife. I have to be responsible toward her.”

Nicholas abruptly remembered what Jacob had said to him.

“She’s just a young woman. She’ll be a divorcee without a job. Her mother died years ago, and she doesn’t have a single relative. Can you imagine what her life would be like if I divorced her? How
