Chapter 702 He Was Not a Loner

• It had been a long time since Lara had been described as a little girl, but she didn’t let her reaction show. Nikolai probably had no idea that his casual remark was making her heart race like crazy.
• He had always been a dim little boy in Lara’s eyes; she knew that she was no match for Matthias, and she understood that there was a certain distance between her and Nikolai as well.
• All of a sudden, Lara felt a little miserable—was there no other man left for her in this world? Why did she have to waste her time on this pair of cousins? At that moment, Lara couldn’t help but criticize herself for her poor choices.
