Did You Miss Me?
Grant came back.
“Now that you’ve seen it with your own eyes, are you relieved?”
Nicole flashed a smile and nodded. “Mm… Thank you, Big Brother. I heard Director Sven say that
they’ve saved a lot of trouble with your help. Otherwise, I’m afraid that Clayton wouldn’t have been able
to pull through this time…”.
Grant let out a light laugh.
“It’s all for your sake. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have this treatment.”
Nicole’s eyes were glimmering with joy because she was finally back.
Grant took out a phone from his pocket and handed it over to Nicole.
“Your original phone broke, so I got a new one for you. Everything has been transferred. By the way,
Yvette has been very worried about you. She felt very guilty for calling you that night. If you’re up for it,
you can return a call…”
Nicole’s body stiffened for a moment before she took the phone.
She slapped her head. “OMG! I almost forgot! Yvette must be s
o anxious!”
Although it was that phone call from Yvette that gave Nicole the chance to be alone, Nicole was clear
that Yvette could not b e blamed for this matter.
Even without Yvette, Caleb would have found other opportunities to kidnap Nicole.
It did not have anything to do with Yvette.
Nicole immediately felt bad. She found Yvette’s number and dialed it.
It took a while before Yvette picked up.
“Nicole! Sorry, Grant… Is there any news about Nicole?”
Yvette’s voice was hoarse yet cautious.
It was as if she was afraid of hearing any bad news that she could not accept.
All the calls Yvette made to Nicole during this period were answered by Grant.
That was because she was the only one who knew that Nicole went missing. Thus, Grant only
answered her calls for Nicole.
However, Yvette asked about Nicole too often, and Grant was a little impatient. He would only answer
one call in a few days.
To Yvette, it felt like Grant was blaming her, so she felt even more guilty.
Nicole’s heart sank slightly. Perhaps the one person who felt worse than she did these days was
Yvette.
Yvette looked carefree on the surface, but in reality, her heart was very vulnerable.
There were a few seconds of silence on the phone.
Nicole said, “It’s me, Ms. Quimbey! Did you miss me?”
After several seconds, Yvette did not make a sound and suddenly cried.
“Nicole, you scared me to death! You’re finally back! I haven’t slept for days… When did you come
back? Why didn’t you tell me? Where are you now?”
Yvette cried hysterically for a while before she got to the point.
Nicole paused and glanced at Grant, who nodded before she answered.
“I’m in the hospital. You can come over.”
Yvette sniffled. “Okay, wait for me! I’ll be right there!”
She still had a crying voice. It sounded like she had pent up a lot of tense emotions for a long time,
which came flooding out.
Nicole hung up the phone, breathed a sigh of relief, and walked in the direction of her ward.
Grant also followed her.
“You’re not curious about what the situation is in Southeast Asia right now?”
Nicole wrinkled her eyebrows. “It has nothing to do with me anymore. What’s the use of being curious?”
Grant laughed and was glad that she was so open-minded.
“Eric thought that you were dead and finally made up his mind to fight with Caleb to the end.”
Grant still chose to tell the truth. At least, he did not want his sister to learn it from someone else and
realize that she owed someone else a favor in hindsight.
Instead of that, it would be better to tell her frankly.
Nicole cocked her head for a second and pondered. “He couldn’t bear to give up anything when I
wasn’t dead, but he made up his mind after I died. Does this mean that he wants m e dead?”
She let out a light laugh and shook her head.
In her impression, Eric was always like this.
Before their divorce, Eric did not care about her, but after the divorce, he was overly enthusiastic, a
Now when it came to this matter, he surprisingly reacted the same way. *
