Read of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
The woman smiled and went over to pat Nicole on the shoulder.
“I quite like you. As long as you behave, I can make sure that you suffer a little less.”
Nicole blinked. She slowly listened to those words but was not the least bit happy.
“Then can I ask where the girl was taken away to?” The woman’s smile faded.
Her eyes exuded a slight chill.
“I told you to mind your own business.”
“An arms dealer still does such a low-level thing as human trafficking?”
Nicole’s voice was dry.
The woman tugged at the corner of her lips.“ It’s just handy and not a big deal. Many people in the
world do this. Besides, it’s more than just human trafficking.”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s fine if you know about it. These women’s stomachs are filled with goods to be sent to the place of
need. Then, their mission will be over. It’s a kind of relief. You’re just lucky to be born in a peaceful
country with such a good family background. Of course, you won’t understand that such things are
common in other countries.”
The woman’s tone was extremely light as she spoke without emotion.
It was really hard to imagine that they did not have the slightest compassion and pity toward life.
It was as if they were all desensitized.
Nicole’s gaze changed. She did not continue to ask.
It was useless to know so much before she had the power to fight back.
The woman saw that Nicole’s complexion was horrible. She thought about it and asked, “Do you want a
doctor to check on you?”
Nicole was just about to nod, but the woman added, “But this doctor will only prescribe morphine
whether it’s aheadache or foot pain. Morphine is the least valuable, so he only prescribes this kind of
medicine.”
Nicole pursed her lips. She fell silent for a moment before she said, “Then no need, I’ll just take a rest.”
The woman nodded. “Okay then. You can stay in the room you stayed in before. I’ll talk to the boss
when he comes back.”
“Thank you.”
Nicole’ s tone was slow. Although this woman was Caleb’s girlfriend, she did not harm Nicole.
The woman raised her eyebrows. A faint smile appeared on her face. “You’re welcome.”
Nicole returned to her original room. It was at least clean enough for her to breathe smoothly.
She slowly regained her composure.
It turned out that peace was sometimes hard to come by.
Nicole sat in the chair with her eyes closed, intending to straighten out her thoughts over the past few
days.
Suddenly, she heard a cacophony of sounds outside.
Gunshots were mixed with sudden movements of cars.
For a moment, Nicole was surprised. Nicole’s eyes snapped open.
She wanted to run outside and happened to bump into the woman.
The woman saw that Nicole was still around and sighed in relief. “What’s going on outside?” Nicole
asked. The woman smiled. “It’s nothing, just a little conflict. Such insolent provocations happen here all
the time about stealing some supplies and territory. Don’t mind that…” Nicole lowered her eyes in
disappointment. “It’s so chaotic. Is there no one to control the public order?” “You mean the
authorities?” The woman looked at Nicole with amusement.“ This is a no man’s land in Southeast Asia
that has no governance. Armed conflicts are commonplace, so even if you escape, you’ll just fall into
the hands of others, and you won’t be so lucky next time…” Nicole’ s face went white, and her frown
deepened. The woman smiled and told her to go back and get some rest. Then she closed the door
and locked it from the outside. Nicole paused and walked back with feeble steps. It felt like a thorn was
stuck in her throat. Was there no hope at all? It was not at all like Nicole’ s style to sit back and wait for
death. A moment later, the sounds outside stopped. The car engine sounds faded away. A few curses
rang out from the courtyard, which made Nicole feel frustrated.
