Chapter: 1299

Nikolas was a bundle of contradictions.

With Aimee, he was attentive and affectionate, almost like a loyal, well-trained dog. Even when his temper flared, it would dissolve quickly.

But the side he showed to others was far less endearing. Nikolas had a ruthless streak, unafraid to use violence when it suited him. He didn't seem to be bound by the same moral standards as everyone else.

"Hey! You used to say how great it was to have a man who was possessive when you didn't have one. Now that you do, you keep complaining. Aimee, it almost sounds like you're bragging," said Bethany.

Aimee squinted and laughed. "Not at all. Why on earth would I want to brag anything in front of you? If I were going to brag, I'd wait until you met the right man. Then, I'd really give you something to see. Think of it as a preview for you both."
