Chapter 309

Nicole's POV

My mouth immediately felt like it was quivering. "You mean, with that old man, is.... Benny Thompson?"

The man nodded, seeing what was happening to me as if he had expected it. I had a panic attack. The man held my hand tightly, helping me to calm down what was happening to my body.

After the past events, there were many things I had to go through, and this panic attack was one of them. Aside from being traumatized by loud noises and car crashes, it was very difficult for me to deal with this kind of shock that was also almost similar to the things I had gone through in the past.

I wasn't badly hurt, but the scars from that incident still remained.

"Calm down, Nicole. You're still here, as are Richard and me." he took my hand and rubbed it gently. "Your father is fine, too. You just have to face this reality so you don't falter. You need to breathe."

I breathed in with difficulty, feeling claustrophobic with the pressure my body was making due to the panic I was feeling.
