Deep Affection: Honey, Come Back To Me

Chapter 167 Ninas Identity

John was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. He could only lie down and let Nina use his hand as a heater.

During the night, John's body gradually felt hotter. He felt restless and couldn't sleep. His vision started to get hazy, and his hair was disheveled. Even worse, he started having difficulty breathing.

After a deep, slow breath, John gradually closed his eyes.

Nina liked to sleep with the window open because she liked the feeling of the fresh air in the room. Spring had just ended. The night wind was not that cold yet; it was still sufficiently warm.

Sleeping beside John, Nina felt that it was too hot to be wrapped in a blanket. So, she kicked the blanket and pushed it down to her belly.

However, she still felt stuffy somehow. Feeling uncomfortable, she frowned and muttered absentmindedly, "Brother, stay away from me."

Before Nina was five years old, she liked to sleep next to her brother, who was only around four years older than her. Their family allowed them to sleep beside each other because they were still young at that time.

John was perplexed.

'Brother?

Did she have a brother?' John asked himself.

Now that he thought about it, Jessica seemed a little patronizing earlier during the family dinner when she asked how much he actually k

in the south.

There was also a mixture of different scents on his body, which meant that he went to a place packed with people before arriving at the coffee shop.

Perhaps he had gone to the bus station.

He looked tired and worn.

"Did you just come back after handling cases in other places?" Nina asked as she put two spoons of sugar in her coffee.

Noah took a small sip of his coffee and felt much better. Then, he replied, "It's not a case. I went to Spring City. I just came back today."

Surprised, Nina asked, "Spring City?" It was as if hearing the name of the city caught her interest.

Shrugging, he said, "Nothing. However, I've heard of something important." Noah looked at Nina in the eye. "It has something to do with you."

Upon hearing his word, Nina stopped stirring her coffee. She pursed her lips and raised her brow slightly.

She seemed to have already guessed about what it was about.

Still, she acted like she was oblivious. She tilted her head to the side and asked innocently, "What do you mean?"

With worry in his voice, Noah started to explain, "The little princess of C Island escaped from home about two years ago. Her whereabouts were unknown for a while. However, I heard that someone found her in Spring City about half a month ago."
