"Nicole, are you still there?"
Sally did not hear Nicole's voice. She thought that the signal was not good and hurriedly asked.
"Yes, I'm here."
Nicole immediately regained her senses and replied, "Sally, who exactly is this Davon? Is he reliable? I
heard that Leo is trying to rope him in."
"He is in charge of all the businesses of the Sawyer family, and now he runs the businesses very well.
His branches are almost in every corner of the world. His properties can be even equal to a country's
wealth. Leo doesn't have any ore veins, so he is in extreme want of money. At this time, Davon is
naturally welcomed by Leo. However, Davon can handle this matter himself. Don't worry."
Hearing Sally's words, Nicole asked again, "What kind of business does he do?"
"Medicine. His business scope includes medical equipment, medicines, and even anti-cancer drugs as
well as some treatments for incurable diseases. Nowadays, people are afraid of death, and all rich
people want to live longer. So the industry is very hot. However, only professionals can run a medical
business. Davon is a postdoctoral fellow and is even studying medical subjects. He is a talent."
Nicole rarely saw Sally think so highly of a person. Now, Sally praised Davon extravagantly, which
made Nicole disbelieve it.
"Sally, have you seen it with your own eyes? Perhaps this man is raising someone capable to praise
himself."
"Impossible."
Hearing Sally's affirmative answer, Nicole did not want to say anything, but she became much more
interested in this man called Davon.
"Alright, I'll hang up and go to see Zayn."
"Okay. If Zayn is in need, ask him to find Davon."
Nicole nodded and hung up.
Sienna came back at this time. Seeing Nicole thinking something, Sienna whispered, "Are you worried
about Zayn?"
"Yes."
Nicole knew that Sienna was on Zayn's side, so she didn't hide anything from Sienna.
"I want to go with you to see Zayn."
"I'll go myself. You'd better stay here. If Leo's men come over during your absence, you won't be able
to explain."
Nicole remembered that Phoenix had been inspected. What tricks did Leo play?
Sienna did not expect this. Hearing Nicole's words, she could not help but nod.
"Then be careful."
"Okay."
When Nicole left the secret passage and arrived at Zayn's palace, Zayn was about to go out to look for
them. When he saw Nicole, he was extremely worried.
He pulled Nicole in and asked Daniella to guard the entrance. Then he asked in a low voice, "Are you
alright?"
"I'm fine."
"What about him?"
Zayn was referring to Samuel.
Nicole replied that Samuel was also fine, and then Zayn heaved a sigh of relief.
"My father never stays a long time in my house. He somehow came to me today. If you were here
earlier, you might have met him. It was simply too dangerous."
Zayn broke out in a cold sweat at thought of this.
Nicole ignored what Zayn said. Instead, she quickly asked, "Zayn, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. What happened?"
Nicole told Zayn everything about Trevin.
Hearing that, Zayn turned pale.
"Major! He's simply an asshole!"
Zayn angrily clenched his fists, wishing that he could immediately kill this bastard. But it was not the
right time.
Nicole said worriedly, "Don't you understand? I'm worried about you. If he can poison Trevin, he might
be able to poison you as well. Moreover, I've verified that Sally must have been poisoned, but the final
result hasn't come out yet. That's why I came to tell you."
Zayn was quite calm about his own life.
He whispered, "Even if I were really poisoned, I wouldn't be able to see a doctor now. Nicole, we are in
the palace. Everyone in the palace is shrewd. You don't know who your true friend is. Perhaps
someone will know that you are poisoned once you go to the doctor. At that time, if my father imprisons
me on the pretext of recuperating, I won't be able to do anything. Do you understand? "
Nicole looked at Zayn's dejected look and felt a little sad.
He had lived long enough, right?
Perhaps he had been tired of living from the moment Pedro died, but the hatred had supported him
until now. If he knew that Pedro's death was related to Sally, could Zayn withstand it?
Nicole did not know, nor did she dare to let Zayn know.
She whispered, "Perhaps there is another way. Sally told me that you can ask Davon's help. He is on
Sally's side."
"Davon?"
Zayn was slightly stunned, then looked at Nicole in disbelief.
"Did my mother really say that?"
"Yes."
"Can you get in touch with my mother?"
Country F was now closed. Under normal circumstances, the signal couldn't be sent out, and only
country F's exclusive line can be connected. However, Nicole could contact Sally, which made Zayn
somewhat surprised and delighted.
Nicole whispered, "It's Samuel. He hacks a line and connects to Country F. But it can't be too long. We
can only make one phone call a day."
"I see. What else did my mother say?"
Zayn had always wanted to contact Sally, but he failed. Now that he had news of Sally, he naturally
wanted to ask more.
However, Nicole shook her head and said, "Nothing more. She means that Davon is capable. You can
rely on him."
"Davon."
As he read this name, Zayn frowned slightly. No one knew what he was thinking.
Sienna had also wondered why Davon, such an outstanding person, would help Zayn. Previously, Zayn
did not understand, but now he understood.
It was because of Sally.
Davon was Sally's man, so he followed Sally's instructions to help Zayn.
It was really a coincidence.
After making it clear, Zayn felt much more at ease.
"It just so happens that he will be invited to the banquet tomorrow. I'll take this opportunity to let him
take a look. If I am really poisoned, we'll work out another way."
Hearing that Zayn wasn't bent on dying, Nicole heaved a sigh of relief.
"Alright."
"You and Samuel should also be careful. There are dangers everywhere here, especially the threat
from Major. He is simply a devil. You might be targeted at any time, so you must be careful."
When it came to Major, Zayn was irritated.
Leo wanted him to get along with Major. How was this possible?
There was a deep enmity between him and Major. Neither he nor Major would give up.
Nicole nodded and whispered, "Be alert. We won't keep in touch with you here. If you need help, you
can come to us."
"I see."
At this moment, Zayn deeply felt Nicole's concerns and worries.
Apart from Pedro, no one else had ever made him feel this way.
For Zayn, Nicole was his own sister. He could even die for Nicole.
He was such a person, who would try his best to protect the one who was kind to him and would hate
the one who was bad to him.
"Then I'll go now. I'm afraid Samuel will be worried. Zayn, don't forget to ask Davon to give you an
examination tomorrow."
"Okay."
Zayn finally smiled. He smiled happily.
Seeing him smile, Nicole suddenly remembered the doctor just now.
The two men were a little like each other when smiling, but their appearances were different.
Noticing what she was thinking, Nicole was lost for word.
If he knew that she was thinking of a man, Samuel would probably go crazy with anger.
When she thought of the jealous look on the man's face, Nicole grinned.
"Zayn, I will leave now. Bye."
Nicole quickly left Zayn's palace and headed towards Samuel's residence.
Now, that man must be very worried about her.
Thinking of this, Nicole accelerated.
When she returned to Phoenix's place, Leo had left, only leaving sullen Phoenix drinking alone.
Phoenix was a little sad and disappointed.
Nicole planned to see Samuel, but now Phoenix saw her and immediately stopped her.
"Nicole, come drink with me."
"I'm going to find Samuel."
After she finished speaking, Nicole was about to leave. But Phoenix whispered, "Today is the
anniversary of my mother's death. But he came to me without saying a word about my mother. I
thought he was here for my mother, but I didn't expect him to be here for an unknown bodyguard. In his
eyes, anyone is more important than my mother. My mother's life was a tragedy. Since he didn't like
her, why did he rape her? Why did he force her to give birth to me?"
Phoenix was truly sad.
For so many years, she had never told anyone about it, not even Samuel.
She had been indifferent and had always told herself that she was an orphan. Naturally, she would not
be disappointed if she did not have any expectations. But today, on the anniversary of her mother's
death, Leo had come. She still had some expectations.
But in the end, Leo didn't even say a word about her mother, and he didn't even remember who her
mother was.
Phoenix felt that it was very ridiculous and ironic.
Why was such a man still alive?
Why did he still feel that he should be the ruler of all people?
If it weren't for him, her mother might have married an ordinary man and had a peaceful life. However,
because of him, her mother had passed away so early and the cause of death was unknown. Now, she
was almost forgotten by everyone.
Nicole wanted to leave, but she couldn't move a step.
Phoenix was so sorrowful that Nicole couldn't leave Phoenix alone.
So Nicole returned and sat beside Phoenix. She patted Phoenix on the shoulder and said, "A sullen
look is not suitable for you."
"Then what is suitable for me?"
Phoenix smiled self-deprecatingly.
Nicole whispered, "A confident and delighted look is suitable for you."
Phoenix was instantly stunned.
She never thought that she would hear such an evaluation from Nicole. She couldn't help but whisper,
"Don't think that I won't steal Samuel's heart just because you flatter me."
"If you can win Samuel over."
Nicole's ironic answer made Phoenix feel speechless as if something was stuck in her throat.
"You can go away now."
"Alright. Princess, enjoy yourself. I'll go see my husband now."
Nicole left happily, leaving Phoenix dumbfounded at the spot.
Nicole was really showing off without concealing her complacency at all!
At this moment, Nicole did not care what Phoenix thought. She could not wait to see Samuel, but when
she approached the bedroom, she heard a cry and her heart suddenly sank.
