Audrey woke up and went downstairs. But she did not see Nicole.
She thought that Nicole was sleeping in the guest room. She went to the kitchen, but when she opened
the door, she saw the
kitchen in a mess.
It didn't seem that Nicole broke something by accident.
Audrey's heart sank and she ran to Nicole’s room.
Her room was empty. The bed was neat. She didn't sleep here last night.
Audrey got anxious. She searched everywhere, but still couldn't find Nicole.
She began to tremble, her anxiety intensifying.
Audrey watched the surveillance footage and saw Viola had taken Nicole away. Audrey narrowed her
eyes when she noticed the needle in Viola's hand.
"Damn!"
Audrey was so angry that she trembled. She called Dominic.
“Where's Viola?"
Dominic was surprised as Audrey called him very frequently these days. But Audrey's cold tone made
his excitement
dissipate at once. Dominic was stunned.
"She is out and has come back. She said she went to your place. Wasn't she with you?”
Audrey flew into a rage.
“I told you to look after her. No matter what happens, you should ask her to stay at home and let her
wounds heal. Why don't
you listen?"
“What's wrong? Audrey, what happened?"
Dominic realized that something was wrong with Audrey.
Audrey rarely lost her temper. She was always aloof to everyone. At first, Dominic thought she was just
like this. Later on, he
found that Audrey was just unable to love anyone.
How they got to know each other was rather interesting.
Audrey drank too much and mistook him as someone else. They had a one-night stand.
Unfortunately, Audrey was pregnant. The doctor said her health conditions were so bad that if she had
an abortion, her life
would be in danger. Audrey had no choice but to give birth to Viola who was brought up by Dominic.
It was a surprise to Dominic who was very excited to have a daughter. He had thought that Audrey
would marry him. Nut
Audrey refused, saying that she would never get married, let alone him. Dominic was disappointed.
Over the years, Dominic had been caring for Audrey. He was happy as long as he could see her and
Audrey was with him.
However, Audrey didn't seem to like Viola. She was so keen to look after her.
She took the initiative to call him twice a day because of Viola. Dominic realized that something went
wrong.
“What's wrong? What's wrong with Viola?”
Audrey almost lost control. She whispered, "You'd better find Viola now. Otherwise, I don't know what
the consequences will
be. Dominic, you can't discipline your own daughter. What else can you do?"
With that, she hung up.
Where could Viola go?
Audrey had thought Viola was just arrogant and capricious. She wouldn't do anything too ridiculous. So
she didn't take Viola’s
dislike of Nicole seriously.
After all, mothers would assume their daughters to be good girls.
But now, she was getting uneasy.
Viola told Audrey about her feelings for Samuel. She even said she wanted to marry Samuel. Would
she harm Nicole?
Audrey ran out and checked the surveillance footage. She saw Viola drag Nicole into a car. They
disappeared. Audrey could
not see where they were going as they went to a place where cameras couldn't cover.
Audrey was very anxious. She called Viola whose phone was turned off. She didn't want to answer her
phone.
Audrey called Samuel.
"Samuel, Nicole is missing.”
“What?"
Samuel was almost done with the incident at the construction site. As long as a supplier proved that
Allen was behind it, Allen
would pay heavy prices. But he was told that Nicole had disappeared.
"What happened?"
"Let's talk face-to-face.”
Audrey didn’t know how to explain it.
She was embarrassed and worried.
Viola was her daughter. But chances were Nicole could also be her daughter. If Viola did something
bad to Nicole, what should she do?
Samuel rushed to the car with the key in his hand the moment he hung up.
"Samuel, what should we do next?”
Jacob had never seen Samuel being so nervous.
No!
Except five years ago when Nicole had an accident
Could it be that something happened to her?
Jacob was worried, but he couldn't leave. Samuel had already left, so someone had to preside over the
place.
Samuel drove so fast that he ran several red lights. He arrived at Audrey's house.
“Where's Nicole?"
It was rude to ask such a question. But Samuel couldn't care about manners.
Audrey sent the footage to Samuel.
When he saw it, his expression turned gloomy. It was as if he was going to kill someone.
“Viola!”
Samuel knew Viola's feelings for him.
He didn’t take it seriously when she told him about her feelings. Later, when he knew that Mike liked
her, he ignored things
that she had done. When he knew that she was Audrey's daughter and was very likely to be Nicole's
sister, Samuel didn't want to have any connection with her at all.
He just didn’t expect that the person who took Nicole away would be Viola!
Samuel clenched his fists tightly.
If Viola had been right in front of him, he would have punched her without any hesitation.
“Have you found Viola?”
His voice was deep and calm. But Audrey could tell he was suppressing his emotions.
Audrey answered, “I haven't.”
“Her phone is off. I went to places where she visited very often, but she wasn't there.”
Samuel hung up silently and called Mike.
"Find out where Viola is!"
Mike was caught off guard.
"Seriously? You said you didn't like her.”
"I don't have time for jokes. She took Nicole away! Tell you what. If anything happens to her, I will let
Viola pay for it at all costs!"
Samuel's tone was icy cold.
His words chilled Mike.
“She took Nicole away! How is that possible?"
"I don't have time to tell you the whole story. You'd better find out where she is.”
"She's been to a beauty salon. It is said that its services are pretty good. I heard she made an
appointment a few days ago. She could be there.”
Mike did not dare to protect Viola.
He thought Viola was just being playful and wouldn't harm Nicole. She probably took Nicole away
because she didn't like her.
Mike put on his coat and ran out when he hung up.
He had to go over and check.
Samuel left without saying anything.
Audrey stopped him.
"Where is Nicole?”
"I don't know yet, but I think I've found Viola's location. Audrey, if something happens to Nicole, I will let
Viola pay for it!”
Samuel looked at Audrey with a fierce look.
Audrey really didn't know how to respond.
She followed Samuel, got in the car, and headed towards the beauty salon.
When they arrived, Viola was having an operation.
Samuel wanted to break in, but was stopped by Mike.
"Samuel, I know you're worried about Viola. But Viola is having a surgery! Don't you know how
important this is for her? If you barge in now, the surgery will fail.”
"Get lost!”
Samuel was like a beast that lost control. He was so aggressive that he didn't listen to anyone's words.
Mike knew he wouldn't win if there was a fight between him and Samuel. But Viola was having a
surgery. He could not let Samuel in now.
“Over my dead body.”
"Then be it.”
Samuel punched Mike in the face.
Mike fought back.
Ascuffle broke out between two young men.
Audrey watched them fight and did not stop them. Instead, she went straight into the operating room.
Because of her identity, no one dared to stop her.
Audrey walked to the bed and saw that Viola was having a plastic surgery. She had local anesthesia
and was not very sober.
"Viola, where is Nicole?"
Audrey asked.
Hearing Nicole's name in a daze, Viola frowned. She said impatiently, “How can I know?"
"You took her away. Don't lie to me.”
Audrey resisted the urge of dragging Viola out of the bed.
Viola did not open her eyes, but recognized the voice. She was very dissatisfied that Audrey was so
fast.
"Mom, I’m your daughter. Can you stop minding Nicola's business? You quarreled with me over her and
you even interrupted my operation. Is that what you want?"
"Don't digress. Where's Nicole?"
Audrey couldn't hold back her anger.
She rarely cared about others, but Nicole was different. ,
Nicole could be the only child that she had with Xander!
Audrey owed her!
She owed the Don family!
Viola sensed Audrey's rage. She answered impatiently, "I don’t know. I handed her over to Allen and
asked him to take her away. I don’t want to see her again. That's it. As for where she is now, I don't
care. She has nothing to do with me.”
Audrey raised her hand angrily, but then put it down. After all, Viola was still in operation.
"You'd better pray Nicole is safe. Otherwise, even if I forgive you, Samuel won't let you get away with
it.”
Audrey left. But Viola said, "He won't punish me. When I recover, Samuel will like me. I'll be much
prettier than Nicole.”
“Appearance is not everything. Viola, when will you understand it?”
Audrey went away in disappointment. When she saw Samuel and Mike were still fighting, she stopped
them.
