He also heard a strange noise at that time, but because he was afraid of affecting the performance, he
did not dare to open his eyes.
“It’s alright.” Nicole glanced at him. “I don’t blame you for this. This could be sabotage.”
“A sabotage?” Everyone was shocked. Lulu hurriedly said, “Was it Vivian again?” She could not help
but think, ‘Vivian is so horrible. She targets Nicole at every turn.”
Nicole shook her head. “I don’t think she did this. She would not have the guts to go backstage again
after she was driven away.”
“Who was it then?” June was also curious. She suspected it was Raine, but during their performance,
the two sisters were offstage.
Gary saw everyone was silent, and he immediately said, “Leave it to me. The three of us will find out
who did this.”
Seeing Gary feeling a strong sense of responsibility and offering to help investigate the matter, Samuel
looked much better now. “Then we will count on you.” From Samuel’s point of view, Gary owed it to
Nicole.
Gary nodded and immediately looked at Jack and Wayne, who said in unison, “We’ll find out the truth
together.” With that, the three of them left.
Lulu and June looked at Samuel and Spencer and knew that they were worried. They had no choice
but to say goodbye to Nicole and left with Bradley.
The doctor left after bandaging Nicole’s wound, leaving only Nicole, Spencer, and Samuel in the
infirmary.
Spencer then said, “Are you suspecting anyone, Nicole?”
Nicole pondered for a moment, and a name flashed in her mind. But looking at the expressions of her
brothers, she chose not to say. “No.”
The two sighed with disappointment.
Nicole looked at them. “Don’t tell Dad and Mom about this. I’m afraid they would be worried. I will stay
on campus for the next two days and won’t go home.”
“Huh?” Samuel frowned. “No. How can you stay alone with no one taking care of you?”
“It’s alright.” Nicole shook her head. “Don’t worry about me. It is just a minor cut. I can handle it myself.
Mom will be sad and cry if she finds out.”
Knowing how important Nicole was to their mother, Samuel and Spencer could only agree for the time
being.
Thinking of Lloyd, Spencer continued to ask, “What is your relationship with Lloyd?”
Nicole glanced at the two and said calmly, “We just met once at the last party.”
Since Samuel and Spencer were not at the Holder family party last time, Nicole glossed over her
relationship with Lloyd.
“Just met once?” The two were still not too convinced.
Nicole bowed her head at this time. “I’m tired. Could you two go first?”
Seeing Nicole’s tired look, the two of them did not say more but helped Nicole up and sent her back to
class.
By the time Nicole said goodbye to her two brothers and returned to class, her classmates had gone
bananas. As soon as they saw Nicole come in, they came up to her with concern.
“Are you alright?”
“You put up an awesome performance today. It was a shame that you couldn’t finish the show.”
Seeing everyone swarm around Nicole with compliments, Vivian, who was disliked by everyone, felt
depressed. “If she hadn’t acted, this kind of thing wouldn’t have happened. It must be that she has too
many enemies.”
As Vivian said that, she thought, ‘An obnoxious person like Nicole must have brought trouble to
herself.’
But everyone was infuriated upon hearing Vivian’s words. “I think you are jealous of Nicole. You
damaged her costume before this; maybe it was also you who sabotaged her performance.”
