Was It Very Scary?
Nicole watched as Yvette bowed her head looking upset.
She paused and spoke in a gentle tone.
“It’s not your fault. What does it have to do with you? Even without your call, he’ll also find other
opportunities…”
Yvette sniffled. “You don’t blame me?”
“Of course not!” Nicole smiled.
Yvette lowered her gaze in a loss. “But your big brother blames me. I called to ask how you were doing
and he didn’t even
answer the phone!”
Nicole was dumbfounded and said, “That’s because you’re just too annoying, right?”
Yvette jerked her head up. “How is that possible?”
Then she looked back down again. “I wasn’t annoying… I was just so worried about you!”
Nicole laughed. “Don’t think too much. Grant’s like that. This time, he was the one who reminded me to
return your calls. Otherwise, I would’ve forgotten about you!”
Yvette grunted and glanced at her. “Heartless b*tch!”
Nicole laughed and went over to hug Yvette. “Alright, I was the one who delayed your big wedding day.
Isn’t it soon?”
Yvette paused. There was something off in her expression.
Nicole noticed it. Her lips twitched. “Don’t tell me that you guys broke up already…?”
Yvette was a little guilty. “Not yet, but we quarreled the last two days.”
Nicole’s heart sank. “It’s not because of me, right?”
Yvette sniffled. “It’s not entirely because of you. I said that I wanted to go to Southeast Asia to save
you, but he didn’t let m e go and said that I’ll just add to the chaos. What bullsh*t is that?! If I don’t go,
should I just watch you die?”
Nicole’s nose felt sour. She smiled faintly. Nicole did not have many friends, but her few friends were
willing to risk their lives for her.
She sighed, hugged Yvette, and shook her shoulders.
“You’re so impulsive! Lance is right. What use will you be over there? Will you just scold them to
death?”
Yvette got agitated and stood up. “Don’t look down on me!”
Nicole laughed. “I know, but you being there will just increase the enemy’s bargaining chip. Lance is
right. He’s just worried about you and has good intentions. Don’t be ungrateful.”
“I just think that he’s too calm about it. It’s not his friend that’s in trouble, so he can’t sympathize!”
Yvette grunted in anger and spoke.
Nicole said, “You’re so petty. Even if his friend got into trouble, he wouldn’t be as impulsive as you.”
“Right… He’s a cold blooded animal!”
Seeing that Yvette was clearly prejudiced against Lance now, Nicole did not know what to say.
“Ms. Quimbey, impulsiveness won’t solve any problems. Look, my family didn’t go and I’m still fine,
right? Is my big brother also a cold blooded animal?”
Yvette pouted. Although she did not say it explicitly, she agreed with Nicole.
Nicole sighed. “Lance is a nice guy, so don’t go overboard. Just be mad for two days. When he comes
over to coax you, try to
compromise.”
Yvette said, “I did this for you, but you still speak for him?!”
“Then three days?”
Yvette grunted and chatted with Nicole about those few days.
Yvette was the first person to ask Nicole what exactly happened during those few days.
Although Nicole did not experience anything too tragic and the saddest thing was that explosion, when
Nicole mentioned i t, she still had heart palpitations.
However, she did not feel uncomfortable sharing this with Yvette.
Nicole told Yvette what happened as if it was something that someone else experienced. Nicole’s heart
also felt less burdened.
Unknowingly, the sky darkened.
