The car continued to drive in the direction it was supposed to.
When Nicole woke up, she found herself in a strange room.
She looked left and right and realized that no one was there and she herself was safe and sound. So,
she stood up.
She recalled what happened before she lapsed into unconsciousness.
Nicole frowned slightly as a trace of doubt flashed through her mind.
Didn't Chuck work for Mr. Bates?
Could it be that everything was a conspiracy?
Or did Chuck bring her to see Mr. Bates?
But if so, was that necessary for him to be so secretive? And what couldn't be said explicitly? Why did
he have to knock her out?
A series of questions flashed through Nicole's mind.
She stood up, moved around for a while and discovered that apart from the things she had brought
from Gabrielle's house, everything else was there.
Nicole could not understand why Chuck did so. She opened the door and walked out.
This was an independent villa near the sea. There were few inhabitants round the place.
When Nicole walked out of the room, she discovered that there were bodyguards outside. There were
quite a few of them. So, it would be difficult for her to defeat them alone.
Her brows furrowed even tightly.
Right now, Chuck walked in.
"Oh, Mrs. Green."
"Chuck, what do you mean?"
Nicole looked irritated.
Ever since she got sick, she seemed to have always been controlled by others. Vincent and Chuck
could easily take her down.
She hated her weak body, and she hated the feeling of being controlled. The feeling of being held in
others' hand made her feel insecure.
If she couldn't even protect herself, could she protect the children and Laurel?
Chuck seemed to know that Nicole would be angry and said with a smile, "Nicole, I bear you no ill will.
Don't be nervous."
"Is that so? Did you bring me here with good will? What are you doing? Tell me quickly. We can talk
about it, or just let me go if we can't. Why bother like that?"
"I'm afraid not. Nicole, you have to stay here for the time being. You can't go anywhere. Don't worry, I
will take good care of you. I will also try my best to satisfy all your requirements. However, you can’t
leave this place."
What Chuck said irritated Nicole.
"Is this what you mean or what Mr. Bates means?"
"Nicole, don't ask further. You will understand later. I know that you are not well and I have already
brought you the medicine. Don't worry, I won't harm you."
Chuck put the medicine on the table.
Nicole took a look. It was indeed the medicine which Gabrielle had prescribed for her, but now she
didn't want to eat it at all.
"I want to see Mr. Bates."
"I'm sorry. I can't help you with this."
Chuck said apologetically.
Nicole was especially anxious.
Something wrong happened to Tim. Samuel's life was uncertain, and his whereabouts were unknown.
Finn had shot at her as if he had become a different person. A series of things were strange. She
absolutely could not stay here and wait for death or wait for news.
"Then what can you do?"
Nicole was neither arrogant nor impetuous as she coldly looked at Chuck.
Seeing her like this, Chuck couldn't figure out what Nicole was thinking. He said, " I can help take care
of you."
"Then you can leave. I don't want to see you now."
After saying that, Nicole turned her face away.
Chuck was a little awkward, but he didn't say anything and directly retreated.
Nicole didn't expect him to be so obedient, so she frowned.
When she was left alone in the room again, Nicole looked around. There were no cameras installed
here, but outside the room, there were electronic eyes everywhere. In other words, other than this
room, all the other places here were monitored.
Nicole didn't know if she should thank that person for his respect for her, but she felt especially
aggrieved.
Her poor health did not allow her to stay here for too long.
It seemed impossible for her to fully recover, but waiting for news or waiting for help was not her style.
What should she do?
Nicole was on edge.
The morning passed quickly.
When Gabrielle woke up, she found that Nicole was gone. She was so anxious that she ordered some
men to search for Nicole everywhere. After learning that she had driven away from the Seapolis City,
she was especially worried and hurriedly called Blair.
Blair learned about Nicole's condition and sent people to chase after her towards the direction where
Samuel was missed, but there was no trace of Nicole. He had no choice but to tell Jason about Nicole's
missing.
Jason was rather anxious and ordered his men to find Nicole.
For a moment, the entire Seapolis City was once again in a state of tension because of Nicole's
disappearance. However, Nicole did not know all of this.
She was trapped here like a bird in a cage. She was extremely anxious, but no one came to say
anything to her.
Nicole knew that she couldn't go on like this.
Now that she wanted to leave this place, it seemed that she had to use some methods.
Thinking of this, Nicole deliberately shattered the cup in front of her. She shouted and fainted.
When Chuck received the news that Nicole fainted, he hurriedly rushed over.
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you to take good care of her?"
Chuck was very angry and didn’t seem to be obedient at all.
The bodyguard didn't know how to answer. Chuck had told him that he shouldn't stay close to Nicole.
So he had nothing to do with what happened to Nicole. But of course, he didn't complain to him.
Seeing that the bodyguard did not say anything, Chuck changed his mood and said, "Go and call the
family doctor."
"But Mrs. Green is like this. I'm afraid the family doctor won't be able to cure her."
The bodyguard looked at Nicole's pale face and felt a little worried.
Chuck frowned and said, "Call him over to check her first. We can't take her out. If something happens,
we can't bear this responsibility. As long as she is good, everything will be fine."
Nicole listened silently. She didn't know who these people were and why they treated her like this, but
she still pretended to be in a coma.
The bodyguard quickly went out to call the family doctor.
Nicole wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to control Chuck, and then ask Chuck to take her
out. When she was thinking about this, suddenly someone sneak attacked Chuck.
Weak though Chuck seemed, he was actually a strong person and knocked that one unconscious.
The sound of fighting attracted the attention of the bodyguards outside.
Chuck said coldly, "Throw him out. It should be people sent by Vincent. Strengthen your guard and
don't let anyone from Vincent come in and hurt Nicole."
"Yes!"
The bodyguard quickly left.
Nicole was scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.
So Chuck was so powerful!
If she had attacked him just now, there was no chance of her winning. But from what he said, he was
not one of Vincent’s men, so who else sent him over?
Was Mr. Bates really Samuel's friend?
All these questions would be answered when I saw Samuel.
Nicole continued to pretend to be dizzy without making a sound.
Chuck looked at Nicole and thought for a moment, but he still carried her to the bed.
The family doctor arrived soon and was slightly shocked when he saw Nicole.
"Mrs. Green?"
"Yes, so please cure her."
Chuck nodded.
The family doctor looked at Nicole and said, "You guys go out first. I’ll give her treatment."
Chuck did not say anything before leaving the room.
When there were only two people left in the room, Nicole suddenly grabbed onto his wrist the moment
the family doctor reached out and stopped the doctor from moving.
The doctor was shocked, but he tried to pretend to be calm and said, "Mrs. Green, what are you
doing?"
"You don't have to worry about what I want to do. I just want you to take me out of here."
Cold sweat broke out on Nicole's face.
She wasn't completely pretending. She really felt uncomfortable, otherwise, she wouldn’t look like a
real patient. But now, she didn’t care about anything and just wanted to leave this place quickly.
The family doctor paused for a moment and then said, "You can't get out. I can't bring you out either.
There are many bodyguards outside. I can't take you away with me. I advise you to stay here. Besides,
your health seems to be really poor. If you don't receive a treatment, I'm afraid..."
"Cut the crap. I'm leaving now. You'd better think of a good idea. Otherwise, I don't mind dragging you
to hell."
"Mrs. Green, Chuck is not a man to be trifled with. Do you think he will watch you attack me?"
The family doctor wasn't worried at all.
Nicole smiled coldly, drew a dagger from her sleeve and directly putting it against the family doctor's
neck.
"Then you can try. Let's see if he can save you."
The cold light shocked the family doctor. He didn't expect the seemingly weak Nicole to be so decisive.
For a moment, he couldn't calm down.
"Mrs. Green, you know that I'm just a doctor."
"Right now, I'm not interested in your identity or occupation. I just want to leave this place. I don’t want
to say it again, okay? Otherwise, I really don't know what I will do."
Nicole was now fierce.
She was really anxious. She had been delayed here all morning. She didn't know how Tim and Samuel
were doing now. If it continued to worsen, she could only see their corpses.
Seeing that the doctor was still hesitating, Nicole's hand trembled. Immediately, a wave of pain
assaulted the family doctor. His neck was bleeding.
The doctor was immediately scared.
"I can't take you out, but I can think of a way to get you out of here."
"What method?"
Nicole asked coldly. She already had the worst plan in her mind.
The doctor was likely to cheat her, but she'll have to give it a try now.
The doctor heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Nicole's question. As long as Nicole was willing to
talk with him, it would be OK.
As he spoke, he took out something from his medical kit.
