Tried 322

    <b>Chapter </b><b>322 </b>


    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 sheughed 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 orphan’s and raised and trained from childhood. Compared to ordinary people, they simply received extra physical training.


    The Turner family also had an unwritten rule. <b>When </b>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<b>. </b>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 <b>educational </b>resources. Before she turned thirty, she belonged to the Turner family. <b>If </b>she got involved with Mark, it would not be <b>fair </b>to him.


    However, after thirty<b>, </b>she belonged to herself.


    Mark was so excited that his hands <b>were </b>trembling. <b>Just </b>moments ago, he had been acting all righteous<b>, </b>but now he pressed Nina’s hand against his belt. He growled, voice dripping with desire, “Can you <b>answer </b>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 <b>herself </b>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 <b>was </b>you <b>I </b><b>saw </b><b>at </b>the entrance!”


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


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


    Milena Yurchenko?‘ Aubree whipped her head around. Although <b>Milena’s </b>men broke <b>her </b><b>leg </b>in her previous life, Milena herself never showed her face. She onlymunicated through phone <b>calls </b>and <b>messages</b>. Though <b>Trevor </b>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 <b>itself </b>with the Yurchenko family’s enemies. Once Trevor was rescued, they gathered incriminating evidence of the Yurchenko family’s illegal <b>activities </b>and brought the entire family <b>down </b>in one fell swoop.


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


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


    “Current girlfriend? Didn’t he dump you already?<b>” </b>Aubree <b>gave </b>a disdainfulugh.


    Thatment struck a raw nerve with Milena<b>. </b>How did this woman know? She instantly exploded, her <b>eyes </b>wide in shock.


    It also strengthened Milena’s suspicions that there <b>was </b>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 <bter</b><b>.” </b>


    “Good for you then<b>, </b>came the indifferent reply.


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


    Milena’s eyes shed with <b>malice</b><b>. </b>“That bitch<b>! </b>Who does she think she is?‘


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


    Milena narrowed her eyes dangerously<b>. </b><b>She </b>would make sure Aubree suffer 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?<b>” </b>Milena asked innocuously.


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


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


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


    <i>女 </i>


    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 rtionship with Aubree, but he wasn’t wrong to say that Aubree <b>was </b>nothing but trouble to him. Whatever else Milena imagined was entirely her business and had nothing to do with him.
