Chapter 742 The Hired Killer
The sky was dark, and there was heavy traffic downstairs.
This winter seemed to be extra cold because the wind was bone-piercing
Nicole felt hungry.
L
.
She saw someone in the convenience store across the street downstairs eating a hot dog. She was very
tempted.
Nicole had not eaten a hot dog in years.
She suddenly got an appetite. After some thought, she chose to give up the hotel’s five-star chef’s
handiwork.
Nicole put on her jacket, grabbed her purse and phone, and went downstairs dressed casually and
comfortably.
When she got to the convenience store, she completely forgot about her regular diet.
The smell of the hotdog was really enticing. She sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and wolfed
down the hotdog.
After eating, she sat for a while longer and watched as the cars outside gradually diminished.
The glow of the streetlights permeated with a chill.
Nicole got up and left.
Before she could cross the street, the traffic light on the pedestrian crossing changed
to red.
Nicole stopped on the sidewalk.
There was silence all around.
Her phone suddenly rang. It was Jacob Cook
She frowned and picked it up. “Mr. Cook…”
“Ms. Stanton, the police just came here to investigate all the surveillance footage of the project. They
found a suspicious point. The construction accident site was surrounded by people, but there’s a
suspicious person who was responsible for the transportation of the tower crane at high places. This
person will just stay not more than a few days before leaving the site. Before every incident, he’ll be
there…”
Nicole held her breath. Sure enough, those incidents were most likely not accidents.
The traffic light across the street turned green.
Nicole said as she walked, “Do you know who it is? If he appears every time, he’s likely to be a local.”
Suddenly, a light on the side flashed. There was also a loud roar of an engine.
Nicole shuddered and looked to the side. The blinding light made her dizzy for a
moment.
The person on the phone continued to speak, “The police have begun to investigate. That person has a
clear scar on his face, so he’s likely to be an assassin hired by Lincoln Zelman…”
Nicole’s ears buzzed. It was unclear if she heard what Jacob said.
The oncoming big truck was extremely fast, too fast that she could not react.
However, she could accurately see the person driving… As well as the scars on his face!
In that instant, the honk and the cold wind seemed to sweep her away and swallow her up. Everything
around her suddenly fell silent.
The truck rammed straight into Nicole.
