Seven Days Seven Nights

Chapter 167 Consumed By Jealousy

This was a text that Nancy didn’t dare to reply to, and she didn’t dare to ask him for the reason either, afraid that she would receive the answer that had been repeated so many times before.

Moreover, men kissed for various reasons-pity, impulse, and desire. She no longer dared to hope for anything or harbor any unrealistic dreams.

That night, both of them went to bed very late. The next day, when Nancy walked out of her room, she found Nicholas awake and busy in the kitchen.

As a delicious smell wafted out of the kitchen, the doorbell suddenly rang, and she went to answer it.

Seeing that it was Christian standing outside, she paused for a second before snapping back to her senses. “Oh, it’s you, Christian. What brings you here?”

“I thought it might be inconvenient for you since you’re living alone with a twisted foot, so I brought you breakfast. After this, I can also drop you off at the hospital,” he said casually.

Nancy’s heart was filled with unease as she scratched her head. The fact that Nicholas was inside now made her feel overwhelmed. Thanks, Christian. You’re-”

Looking at the breakfast in his hands, Nancy was touched and quickly stopped him. “Wait… If I’m right, you haven’t had breakfast either. Since we’re friends, let’s have breakfast together.”
