“Nicole, are you deliberately trying to pick a quarrel with me? Do you know how many people are inside
and outside here? Do you think you can take your parents away by yourself?”
Seeing that Nicole had rejected her kindness, Charlotte couldn’t help but put a long face.
She knew Allen, so she wanted Nicole to leave first. Once Nicole was alive, Allen might even be afraid
and kept Samuel and her child alive.
She didn’t believe that Nicole wouldn’t understand such a simple truth. Why did she want to kick
against the pricks?
Nicole did not want to treat Allen as an enemy. No matter what Allen did, she would let Samuel solve it.
She even felt that once she did not show up, many things could still retain the same.
But now, Charlotte’s betrayal had completely awakened her.
Such self-deception was useless.
Your cowardliness won’t stop bad people, and they would not pity you. They would take more.
For five years, her failure to protect Zoe was a scar on her heart. Now, if Samuel and Zoe were in
danger again, would she be considered as a human?
Charlotte looked at Nicole and whispered, “Nicole, I’m sorry. I took you as my friend for the past five
years, but there’s a saying that those who have different belief should not work together. Now that you
are in Allen’s side, I won’t say anything, but I won’t leave today. I’m taking my parents away from here,
and you can’t stop me!”
“What? You’ve been in the Seapolis City for a few months, and you have the ability? Or do you think
you can fight against me? Nicole, I advise you not to fight a hopeless battle. Let alone the people
outside, you cannot even fight against me.”
Then, she took off her coat.
For five years, Nicole was familiar with her, so she knew that Charlotte was an expert in judo, and she
was nothing, but now Nicole did not fear at all.
She sighed, “Let’s go.”
The moment she said, Charlotte’s expression changed.
“You brought someone? Impossible! No one can enter here! This is a high-end residential area!”
However, Nicole did not say anything.
She came to her parents’ side and inspected them. After discovering that they were unscathed, she
heaved a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, a disorderly sound came from outside.
Charlotte’s face was even longer.
She suddenly wanted to capture Nicole, but Nicole took out her gun and aimed it at Charlotte.
“I know you’re skillful, and I know I can’t defeat you. But Charlotte, don’t force me to do it.”
Nicole’s posture of holding the gun was accurate, and her hands were not trembling.
Charlotte recognized that the gun Nicole held was a small AK47.
“You know how to use a gun? You have a gun! Nicole, it seems like neither I nor Allen have
underestimated you.”
“You underestimated me. When I was reborn from that fire five years ago, I told myself that I must
never let myself be oppressed. I didn’t expect that those who oppressed me were you and Allen, two of
my best friends. I knew what Allen did to Zoe just now, but I didn’t ask him for reasons in person. Don’t
you understand? I don’t want to be your enemy. But why do you insist on oppressing me? Why do you
involve my parents in this? I don’t know what other secrets Allen has, but you don’t know all of me. So,
Charlotte, don’t force me.”
Nicole’s eyes were cold without the used warmth. She looked like a stranger now.
Charlotte had an illusion that she really understood Nicole.
“I don’t believe you will shoot me. You’re so kind and even cowardly. If Allen and I didn’t help you over
the past five years, you wouldn’t be able to live well. That’s why you wouldn’t shoot me, let alone
handle Allen! Nicole, I know you too well.”
“Is that so?”
Nicole sneered and directly pulled the trigger.
The gun had been specially processed with a muffler. Charlotte looked at Nicole in disbelief with a
gunshot. She fell to the ground and there was a wound on her shoulder that was bleeding.
The pain slowly spread out, leaving her powerless.
“What did you add to the bullet?”
“Anesthetic!”
Nicole’s eyes still hadn’t changed, and her movements hadn’t changed much.
“Do you think I was unprepared? Do you think I’m not wary of you? Maybe you used to pretend well,
but you lost on luck. I asked a friend to look for you, but you said you didn’t know me, which made me
suspicious. Afterwards, I called you and you didn’t answer. Then, you called me and said that you were
kidnapped. Although you did pretend well, Charlotte, tell me which kidnapper would leave a phone for
you to ask for help? And you didn’t call the police. Isn’t it a trap for me? I was stupid and innocent to
never guard against you and shared everything to you, but that doesn’t mean I don’t have intelligence.”
When Nicole said these, pain appeared in her eyes.
“I never wanted to be like this with you, but why do you force me? If it’s just me, I can give you my life,
but you shouldn’t use your kindness to wantonly hurt the people around me. You know that what I care
about the most is my parents and my child, but you hurt them. Zoe is so young, and she doesn’t
understand anything. She hasn’t even left the hospital. She doesn’t know what the outside world looks
like, but you can hurt her. When you hurt her, did you ever think that we were friends?”
Nicole’s eyes became teary.
Her heart ached!
Even though the heartache was almost the same as that of past, she didn’t want to show it now.
To people who worth it, you can do whatever you want, but to people like Allen and Charlotte, your
emotions and contribution were worthless.
Charlotte wanted to say something, but she could not withstand the effects of the medicine on her
shoulder and fainted.
The fight outside continued.
Nicole put away her pistol.
This gun was given to her by Laurel who taught her how to use it. She had thought that she didn’t have
a chance to shoot, but she didn’t expect that the first shot would be aimed at Charlotte.
Nicole’s mood was complicated, but she didn’t dare to delay.
She quickly carried Ms. Bush on her back and walked out.
Finn had already entered. When he saw Nicole, he hurriedly stepped forward to help.
“Lady Green, let me do it.”
“My father was inside. Get him out first and let our men retreat quickly.”
Charlotte did not know when Allen would return, nor did she know when his men would arrive, so she
could not stay.
Finn glanced at Charlotte, who was lying in blood, and asked with a frown, “What about this woman?”
“Leave her here. Someone will help her.”
Nicole quickly brought people out.
Finn brought them into the car and quickly left.
Before leaving, Nicole sent a message to Allen.
“Charlotte is injured and is in danger.”
After sending it, she threw away the phone card.
This time, she completely threw away all her feelings for Allen, as if she had thrown away this phone
card.
Naturally, she felt a little uncomfortable, but she couldn’t care about it.
The car quickly drove back to the sanatorium. Nicole asked the doctor to check her parents.
Viola couldn’t help but feel puzzled when she saw that Nicole had returned with the two old people and
that there was no one else beside her.
“Where did you bring back them by yourself? Who are they to you?”
Nicole was not in the mood to pay attention to Viola. She said to Jacob, “Hurry up and find Samuel. He
might need help.”
At this time, she could not leave here, so she could only let Jacob go.
When Viola heard that Samuel needed help, her eyes immediately lit up.
“What happened to Samuel? I’ll go too!”
Seeing Viola acting like this, Nicole was depressed to death.
Jacob was worried about their safety, but Nicole said it was fine and told him to go quickly.
Knowing that Nicole had other plans, Jacob ran out without stopping.
Nicole breathed a sigh of relief when the doctor checked her parents and confirmed that they were
injected with calm and didn’t have other problem.
Not long after, they woke up.
They were surprised by the unfamiliar environment.
“Mom and Dad, are you awake? Do you feel uncomfortable?”
Nicole hurriedly asked and pulled their attention back.
“Nicole?”
Ms. Bush could no hide her passion for Nicole any more.
They knew how difficult, and how much pain and grievance Nicole had suffered in the past five years
from Charlotte. Now that they could see Nicole again, Ms. Bush hugged her tightly and refused to let
her go no matter what she said.
Nicole’s mood was complicated. She never thought that one day her parents would know everything in
this way.
“Mom and Dad, I’m sorry. I made you suffer from being wronged by me.”
Nicole’s eyes were wet.
Dad Bush saw that Nicole was safe and sound, he sighed and said, “We received news that you were
being sold to the United States. Your mother and I rushed over without stopping. Who knew that your
friend received us as soon as we arrived and tell us to wait for news in her house and she would help
us? We don’t have any leads in America, we can only trust her. Besides, she knows everything you’ve
done in the past five years, so we …
“We didn’t know that we were used by her until we heard that she called you for the kidnapping,” Dad
Bush sighed again, “Nicole, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, Dad. Samuel is protecting me. On the contrary, you had suffered a lot. I know you are tired
now, but what I want to say is that I want you to leave here immediately and return home. After
returning home, Jason and Tim will protect you and I will be at ease.”
Nicole’s arrangement caused them to be slightly stunned.
“Nicole, what are you doing?”
