"What's the matter?"
Olivia was worried.
Although Nicole was critical of Samuel now, if something really happened to the Green family, she
would choose to go over desperately. Thus, Olivia thought she couldn't tell Nicole it.
Seeing that Olivia was somewhat anxious, Jacob whispered, "Swift has disappeared. She might have
been released. But the Green's is well guarded. How does Swift escape?"
Hearing it, Olivia frowned tightly.
"Haven't you cleaned house?"
"Yeah. I'm also very curious."
Jacob was puzzled.
He whispered, "The person Swift hates the most is Nicole. If she comes out, Nicole may be in danger.
You'd better stay close to Nicole for the next few days. If you find anything, feel free to tell me. I'm at
nearby."
"Alright."
Olivia returned to Nicole.
After treatment, Nicole got much better, and she stopped bleeding profusely. But she still looked
worried.
What exactly was Samuel hiding from her?
Where had he gone?
When Nicole saw Olivia, she frowned and asked, "Did Gabrielle say that my body went wrong?"
"No, I just met Jacob."
"It's quite normal. He always stays nearby."
Nicole knew Jacob's duty, so she replied so.
Olivia stared at Nicole and pondered for a moment before saying, "Although Gabrielle told you to rest, I
need to warn you something to prevent you from taking it lightly."
"What is it? You look serious."
Nicole couldn't help but feel a little nervous because of Olivia's solemn expression.
Olivia whispered, "Swift has escaped. She has been taken from the Green's. Logically speaking,
Samuel has cleaned house. But something like this still happens. Jacob told me to remind you to be
careful. Swift hates you very much. Now that she has escaped, she will be waiting for you somewhere."
Nicole was slightly shocked and then said calmly, "I know. Don't worry. I will protect myself. But you
may be in danger by my side. You should go home during this period of time."
"What are you talking about? You're already so sick. I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay with you. I've
already asked Jacob to visit Blair. Maybe he will find out Samuel's whereabouts. It'll be best for Samuel
to come back."
What Olivia said wasn't very comforting to Nicole.
If Samuel really wanted to hide something from her, Jacob would not be able to get any news from
Blair. But Nicole was a little puzzled. Why did Samuel leave her as well as their children, and departed
from the Seapolis City?
Since Nicole was in silence, Olivia thought that she was worried about something. Thus, Olivia
comforted, "Don't worry. I'll be with you. I won't let anything happen to you."
"That's not what I'm thinking. I want to go back to the Green's."
Olivia was startled.
"Gabrielle said you'd better rest. What are you going to do in the Green's?"
"Swift has escaped. I'm worried about Laurel and Lucas. Although Vincent is with them, I still need to
go back and take a look."
Nicole couldn't be relieved.
Olivia wanted to argue. At the thought of that Lucas was Nicole's son, Olivia felt it was reasonable for
Nicole to worry about her own son. Olivia whispered, "Then I'll ask Jacob to arrange it. Will Zoe go
back with us?"
"Let her be with my mother today."
Nicole got dressed, and Olivia instructed Jacob to prepare a car. The Bushes knew that Nicole was
going to the Green's, for Swift had escaped, they couldn't help but feel a little concerned.
"Isn't it bad to go back?"
Ms. Bush held Nicole's hand.
"Don't worry. I'll be back tomorrow morning."
Nicole understood that Ms. Bush was concerned about her, but she was worried about Laurel and
Lucas.
Since Nicole was determined to go, Ms. Bush no longer asked her to stay.
When the car left the Bush's, it was just after six o'clock, and the sky outside had not completely
darkened.
Sitting in the back seat, Nicole was a little tired.
She vaguely felt that there might be something wrong with her body. She was just having a period. How
could she be so weak?
Nicole leaned against the back seat to have a nap, while Olivia and Jacob did not speak much.
As they passed the intersection, the car came to a sudden stop.
"What's the matter?"
Seeing the traffic jam in front of her, Nicole asked.
Jacob whispered, "I'll go down and take a look."
"Be careful."
Nicole nodded slightly.
It seemed some people were demonstrating and crying. There was quite a commotion.
Nicole rubbed her temples, not in the mood for watching what was going on.
Olivia asked in a low voice, "Do you want to sleep for a while? I suppose it will take a while to return the
traffic to normal. It happens to be time off work, so the traffic is heavy."
"I'm fine. Don't worry about me."
Nicole knew that Olivia was worried about her, so she smiled weakly.
Jacob came back soon, but he didn't look himself.
"What's wrong? What has happened up ahead?"
Nicole asked.
Jacob replied in a low voice, "A girl died. Her parents are making a fuss at the entrance of a club,
forcing the club to give them an explanation."
"A club? Which one?"
Nicole was very sensitive to the word 'club'.
Jacob looked at her and said, "The Crown Club. The one who died was Jeannie. The Crown Club
claims that Jeannie has resigned, so she has nothing to do with the club. It is said that Jeannie has
been killed."
Nicole was astonished.
Jeannie helped Samuel preserve his wine. Samuel suddenly left the Seapolis City, and Jeannie was
dead. Could there be any connection between them?
"I'll go take a look."
Nicole, on impulse, opened the car door and got out of the car.
"Mrs. Green!"
Jacob was a little worried and hurriedly asked Olivia to follow her, for he had to contact someone to
drive the car away.
Olivia hurriedly chased up with Nicole.
"Nicole, slow down. There are many people here. Don't knock yourself down."
Olivia followed behind Nicole as close as possible.
Nicole rushed to the entrance of the Crown Club. She saw two old people dressed as farmers crying
there. In front of them was a corpse covered in white cloth.
"Please do us justice. My daughter has worked here for three years, and now she has died like this.
They claim that my daughter has resigned. But yesterday, my daughter told us that the manager
wanted to give her a raise and she planned to bring us here to enjoy a happy life. How could she
resign? This club killed my daughter for no reason. Are the people in the Seapolis City so lawless? "
Jeannie's mother cried so hard that she almost couldn't catch her breath.
There was no greater sorrow in the world than that offspring died before its eldership.
Nicole did not know what Jeannie looked like. But from Jacob's description, Nicole supposed that she
was young.
What exactly happened to Jeannie?
The surrounding people began to judge the club.
The manager of the clubhouse walked out and said, "Madam, Jeannie has really resigned. If you have
any questions, you can call the police and ask the police to investigate this case. We will definitely
cooperate. However, your action has seriously affected the reputation of our club. We don't want to
probe it because Jeannie used to work well in the club. However, if you continue to do so, I will call the
police."
"Do you want to call the police? My daughter was killed. How dare you file the suit first? Go ahead!"
When Jeannie's mother heard this, she was instantly enraged. No matter what other people thought,
she got up and scratched the manager's face.
The manager didn't notice and was scratched. A bloody scar appeared on his face.
"Bodyguards, what are you doing? Control them and call the police!"
The manager got angry and shouted loudly.
The two parties instantly began a fight.
Nicole wanted to go forward and take a good look, but she was pushed aside by the crowd.
She tried to squeeze past the crowd. Whether she was going out or going into the club, it was better
than being stuck here.
Olivia was squeezed out by the crowd and watched helplessly as Nicole got farther and farther away
from her.
"Nicole! Come back! I'm here! Nicole!"
Olivia struggled to break free. But there were too many onlookers. As soon as the security guards
intervened, the scene became even more chaotic.
Nicole heard Olivia's cry, but she couldn't get out. Just as she was about to turn around, something
hard was suddenly pressed against her waist.
"Don't move! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless to you!"
The dangerous aura made Nicole stiffen in fear.
It was a dagger!
If it was a gun, Nicole wouldn't be so scared. But it was a dagger, so the other party could silently kill
her here.
Nicole intended to resist or tackle the murderer, but there were too many people here. She was
manhandled by others, so she couldn't stretch herself.
"Who are you?"
Nicole forced herself to calm down. Now, she could only rely on herself.
However, the other party whispered, "Cut the crap and follow me!"
Nicole was forced to move to the side of the crowd.
Noticing that the distance between herself and Nicole was getting farther and farther, Olivia became
anxious.
"Nicole! Nicole!"
Olivia waved her arms.
Nicole saw Olivia, but now she could not respond to her, afraid that Olivia would be implicated.
The person behind Nicole was a man. Nicole could not see his face clearly. But she could hear his
voice and feel the threat from him.
They quickly left the crowd, and Nicole was brought into a small alley.
As soon as she left the crowd, Nicole immediately turned around, intending to tackle the man.
The man seemed to be on guard against Nicole's move. Hardly did Nicole attack when her arm was cut
by the dagger. Nicole felt an intense pain as the wound was spouting blood.
