"Damn! Their people may have discovered it."
What Laurence said startled Cara. She hurriedly said, "Let's go, Mrs. Green. I'm fine."
"Is everything alright?"
Nicole didn't want Cara to be hurt.
"I'm really fine."
Seeing that Cara jumped twice on the spot, Nicole felt relieved.
"Let's go!"
She and Cara got in the car, and Laurence quickly drove away. Not long after, there was some
commotion near KFC, but that had nothing to do with Nicole now.
The car drove far away, and Cara felt a little uncomfortable. She moved her butt left and right. This was
immediately discovered by Nicole.
"Are you injured?"
"No, I..."
Before Cara could finish her words, she yelled, as if in pain.
"Laurence, go to the hospital."
When Nicole finished speaking, Laurence frowned.
"Mrs. Green, there are too many people in the hospital. What if Martha ran away...."
"Yes! Don't worry about me. I'm okay."
Although Cara said this, sweat had already flowed down her face.
Nicole knew that she must have been hurt.
Looking at Martha who was still unconscious beside her, Nicole suddenly had an idea.
"Laurence, drive to the police station first."
Laurence nodded.
They drove the car near the police station. Nicole suddenly noticed that there seemed to be something
wrong. She hurriedly said, "Don't stop. Drive straight ahead."
"Aren't we going to the police station?"
Laurence was puzzled.
Nicole said in a low voice, "Look at the cars nearby. There are people inside. Although they are well-
concealed, the cigarette butts on the ground near their car doors are still burning, which means that
they are all sitting inside. It is strange. I'm afraid they're coming for us."
Laurence was slightly stunned. Observing carefully, he also found it strange.
At this moment, Martha woke up.
She struggled and hurriedly wanted to speak, but she was knocked into a coma by Nicole again.
Cara was surprised that Nicole, who looked gentle and weak, was actually so strong.
"Hold on a bit longer, or shall we take you to the hospital first?"
Hearing this, Cara shook her head.
"Since there are people waiting for us here, who knows if there are any in the hospital?"
This stunned Nicole.
That was right!
Martha's background was not simple. Although she did not know why those people would take orders
from Martha, Nicole did not dare to take risks.
Samuel and Edwin had set up such a big trap for Martha, so she couldn't ruin their trap.
Nicole was at a loss.
Right at this moment, Steve was calling.
"Ms. Nicole, where are you? Are you alright?"
Nicole let out a sigh of relief.
"We're fine. We've landed safely and tied up Martha. Where are you?"
"I'll be right there. I just arrived at the airport."
Steve probably took the nearest flight.
"I saw that you were taken away. At that time, I couldn't save you. I was afraid that I would act rashly
and alert the enemy. How did you escape?"
"Mr. Green saved me."
Steve said in a low voice, "Mr. Green released Laurel under Mr. Shaw's instruction. After Laurel came
out, she contacted Martha. At that time, Mr. Green and Mr. Shaw were both stunned. They never
expected that person was Martha. When Mr. Green said that he wanted to collect evidence, Martha
went to the gate of the military compound and was taken away by you. He wanted to catch up, but he
was afraid that Martha would hurt you. He was even more worried that you would be used and harmed
by her because of your kinship. Along the way, Mr. Green was terrified. He didn't dare to take an action
until he saw me being held under duress by their men. I guess Mr. Green is still worried about your
safety."
Hearing What Steve said, Nicole immediately calmed down.
"How is he?"
"Mr. Green is fine."
Nicole nodded and said in a low voice, "Send me my mother's address. I'll go meet her."
Steve was stunned for a moment.
"Ms. Nicole, she may not see you."
"Just give me the address."
Nicole's attitude was resolute, so Steve did not refused anymore and directly gave her the address.
Nicole gave the address to Laurence, saying, "Let's go there. Cara, hold on."
"Alright."
The car quickly arrived at the address.
Looking around, Nicole couldn't help but feel like crying.
She had chased Morgan here before, but she had lost her here. If she could go further, would she have
seen her mother earlier?
Nicole's eyes were a little tearful.
"You guys wait here. I'll go in and take a look. Laurence, keep an eye on Martha carefully."
"Alright."
Laurence stopped the engine.
After getting off the car, Nicole stopped at the entrance of a house.
On the surface, this place looked very ordinary, but Nicole knew that the person living inside was her
mother!
Nicole felt a little nervous, but she still took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?"
Morgan's familiar voice sounded, causing Nicole to be especially excited.
Morgan opened the door and was stunned when she saw Nicole. She subconsciously wanted to close
the door, but Nicole directly put her foot into the room. If Morgan closed the door, Nicole's foot would be
hurt.
"What are you doing?"
Morgan frowned tightly.
"I want to see my mother."
Nicole said directly.
Morgan said coldly, "I don't understand what you're saying. Get out. I want to close the door. Otherwise,
I don't care if I hurt you."
"Then cripple my foot."
What Nicole said irritated Morgan.
"Mrs. Green, why are you doing this? When I went to Land City to see you, you said very clearly that
you wouldn't get too close to me. So, why are you here?"
"Anyhow, I still want to see my mother. Listen to me, I have a patient in my car who needs your
treatment. And there's another person whom my mother might want to meet."
The more Nicole said, the more tightly Morgan frowned.
"Mrs. Green, you've gone too far now."
"Yes, I know, but I think I can do this."
Nicole smiled, which even infuriated Morgan more.
"Why are you so shameless now?"
"I have no choice. Besides, I'm pregnant. I have to tell my mother this good news no matter what.
Come on, let me in."
"No!"
"Morgan, you don't want me to call Joseph to open the door, do you?"
Nicole's words seemed to have caught Morgan. She was stunned for a moment, and then said coldly,
"Asshole."
"Thank you for your praise!"
Nicole directly opened the door. Morgan said, "I can let you in, but I don't know if she will see you."
This caused Nicole's footsteps to pause.
Morgan continued, "Since you can come here to find us. I believe Edwin has told you everything. Since
you know everything, do you think she will meet you? Impossible!"
"She will."
Nicole clenched her hands tightly and walked inside.
From afar, she saw Audrey sitting on the balcony. Her thin figure made her feel like crying.
"Mom."
Nicole didn't dare to shout too loudly, afraid that she would startle Audrey. However, Audrey didn't
respond.
She walked over gently and found that Audrey had fallen asleep.
Nicole's tears finally involuntarily flowed down her cheeks when she looked closely at Audrey.
She had a pair of sunken eyes, and her face was so pale. Her hair was thinning out and almost gone.
That loose hat she wore couldn't conceal her morbid state.
And now she could basically be described as skinny.
Nicole still remembered that she was in high spirits when she left. How did she become like this after a
few months?
"Mom."
Nicole suddenly choked with sobs.
She knelt in front of Audrey and held her hand tightly.
Her hands were so cold.
Nicole's tears fell on the back of Audrey's hand. Audrey suddenly opened her eyes.
When she saw Nicole, she thought she was dreaming.
"Nicole?"
"Mom, are you awake? How are you? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Nicole hurriedly asked. The worry in her eyes stunned Audrey.
"Why are you here? You...."
"Mom, don't hide. I've already known. I've seen Grandpa too. I'm here to meet you! Mom, can you
come back with me?"
Nicole cried out loud.
The last thing Audrey wanted to see was this scene. She had never done anything for Nicole in her life.
How could she let her daughter serve her when she was seriously ill sad? How could she let her feel
sad?
"Your grandfather has been tough all his life. Why does he have a big mouth now? It seems that he's
getting old"
Audrey sighed, wanting to pull her hand back, but she couldn't do it.
Nicole cried and said, "Mom, how can you do this? You are sick like this! Why don't you tell me? Are
you planning on quietly dying just like that and making me feel guilty for the rest of my life? How could
you do this? You abandoned me when you were young. Now you're back, in the final moments of your
life. But you want to abandon me again. Is this the only thing you can do in this lifetime?"
Hearing Nicole's accusation, Audrey's eyes became tearful.
"I just don't want you to see me like this. Right now, I'm like a walking dead. I just want to find a place
where no knows and die, but your grandfather is so long-tongued!"
"Mom, what are you talking about? If you die, what should I do? How can you make up the maternal
love you owe me in this lifetime? I'm pregnant now and I'm going to be a mother. How can you bear to
make me sad?"
Nicole knew what Audrey's soft spot was. When she cried out, Audrey was extremely shocked.
"What? You're pregnant? Then how can you kneel like this? Get up!"
Audrey wanted to pull Nicole, but Nicole grabbed her hand and said, "Mom, there's something you
have to promise me. Otherwise, I won't get up."
