Chapter 322

Mark gritted his teeth as he struggled with a range of emotions. He brushed Nina’s hand away. “Then forget it.”

Nina was surprised by his response. Then she laughed suddenly. After all these years, she couldn’t say she never had any feelings for Mark. “Mark, I’m three years older than you.”

“So?” came the gruff reply.

“And I’ll be thirty next year,” Nina continued. Mark suddenly remembered something. Like Nina, the Turner family’s bodyguards were all orphans raised and trained from childhood. Compared to ordinary people, they simply received extra physical training.

The Turner family also had an unwritten rule. When their bodyguards turned thirty, they could choose to start a new life elsewhere or remain with the family.

“I’ve made up my mind. I’m not staying with the Turner family. I’m going to open a dessert shop. At that point, you can pursue me,” Nina said with a smile.

The Turner family had raised her, giving her the finest living standards and educational resources. Before she turned thirty, she belonged to the Turner family. If she got involved with Mark, it would not be fair to him.

However, after thirty, she belonged to herself.

Mark was so excited that his hands were trembling. Just moments ago, he had been acting all righteous, but now he pressed Nina’s hand against his belt. He growled, voice dripping with desire, “Can you answer my earlier question again? Will you be my girlfriend?”

Nina decided to let her actions do the talking.

In the changing room, Aubree finished changing. She wrapped herself in her bathrobe and headed toward the hot spring pool.

Before she could step out, the changing room door swung open.

“Well, well, well! So it really was you I saw at the entrance!”

Great. It’s that lunatic I ran into at the swimsuit shop earlier. Aubree rolled her eyes and turned to walk away. Surprisingly, that lunatic didn’t try to stop her.

“I’m Milena Yurchenko.” Before Aubree exited, that lunatic called out and introduced herself.

Milena Yurchenko? Aubree whipped her head around. Although Milena’s men broke her leg in her previous life, Milena herself never showed her face. She only communicated through phone calls and messages. Though Trevor Wilson made Aubree the scapegoat to save his skin, ironically, Aubree didn’t even know what Milena looked like.

Thereafter, to retaliate against the Yurchenko family, the Wilson family allied itself with the Yurchenko family’s enemies. Once Trevor was rescued, they gathered incriminating evidence of the Yurchenko family’s illegal activities and brought the entire family down in one fell swoop.

“So you’re Milena Yurchenko,” Aubree gave a wry smile. She hardly thought about Milena, yet Milena chose to mess with her.

Milena puffed out her chest and declared proudly, “That’s right! I’m Trevor Wilson’s current girlfriend, Milena Yurchenko!”

“Current girlfriend? Didn’t he dump you already?” Aubree gave a disdainful laugh.

That comment struck a raw nerve with Milena. How did this woman know? She instantly exploded, her eyes wide in shock.

It also strengthened Milena’s suspicions that there was something between Trevor and Aubree.

She held back her temper and forced herself to smile. “So what? Trevor and I will end up together sooner or later.”

“Good for you then,” came the indifferent reply.

Aubree couldn’t be bothered with her anymore and walked away for good.

Milena’s eyes flashed with malice. “That bitch! Who does she think she is?”

Milena had no intention of making a move on Aubree here. There were too many eyes, and too many people would talk. Besides, she relished tormenting people through slow, mental torture.

Milena narrowed her eyes dangerously. She would make sure Aubree suffered a slow and agonizing end!

With her mind made up, she suddenly felt much better. She quickly changed out of her clothes before returning to Trevor.

“Trevor, do you know Aubree Miller?” Milena asked innocuously.

Trevor immediately put on an annoyed look. “Yeah, I know her. Nothing but trouble.”

Milena’s smirk widened into a malicious grin. “I just ran into her. She’s staying here too.”

“She must have been stalking me,” Trevor said with deliberate smugness.

As he spoke, Trevor kept a close eye on Milena’s expression. When he caught a fleeting glimpse of malice in her eyes, he knew the bait had been taken.

He didn’t make explicit his relationship with Aubree, but he wasn’t wrong to say that Aubree was nothing but trouble to him. Whatever else Milena imagined was entirely her business and had nothing to do with him.
