Nicole was not sure she heard the other person on the line correctly. It was a name only one person called her and still does, actually. It was a nickname only Mike dared to make for her, and hypocrisy aside, Nicole loved to hear Mike call her that way. The boldness in the man’s action to ignore Nicole’s words of rejection to be called by that name amused her, thus making Nicole tolerate Mike’s disobedience. And disobedience is something Nicole does not tolerate at all until Mike came to the surface of her bratty lifestyle. She tried to focus on listening, but two men’s voices were audible from the other end of the phone call, so she was having difficulty admitting that the person who called her “Nicky” was the same person she had in her mind right now. Unable to identify the person by listening to his voice, the two guys seemed to be arguing about who to speak with Nicole over the phone to clarify both their sides to the lady; they both groaned in frustration when the line was sudd
“Why would he drop dead?” Justin asked in astonishment and disbelief combined. Justin was somehow pretty aware that Nicole Parker can do so much, such as hire someone to assassinate anyone she might wish to disappear in the face of the earth. He was excited and aghast to witness such capability, even through words alone. The power she possesses in Justin’s eyes and understanding is overwhelming. ‘Pack!’“Fuck!” Justin groaned when he felt another slap had landed crispily on the back of his head. Unlike earlier, when he first felt the slap on his head, he did not see who lifted a hand to do so. This time, he had his eyes on Nicole as if he was too eager to see her reply to his query, so he saw everything. From the moment Nicole raised her right arm to when her hand swung open, and her palm landed on Justin’s head, Justin and Mike saw all of them. Bu Justin did not even get the moment to think about avoiding Nicole’s hands. He seemed to be taken by great surprise that he was only a
“Did he call?” Nicole asked Justin over the phone on her way to the Uni the next morning.“I waited the whole night, but nada!” Justin answered, jumping from his bed, only to drop down on it again. He got pulled down by the blanket that he got wrapped around with, while the rest of the fabric was wound around the girl he spent the whole night with.“Well, if that is the case, just let the video clip spread all over the internet. Just make sure you do not get traced. If you can’t do the job clean, just let me know, and I will ask someone else. I don’t want to clean up after someone else’s brown mess,” Nicole stated firmly.“I can do that. I don’t want my ass getting kicked from all sides. And I am not stupid to ignore the fact that am
Nicole was in a happy mood again as she enjoyed her mint choco-flavored ice cream on the way to the University. She did not step out of the vehicle until the pint was empty and headed to her classroom to start her day. “Nicky!”A familiar voice reached Nicole’s ears as she started to walk on the side pathway with a roof above it. She took a halt in her tracks but did not turn around. She was perfectly confident of who could be calling her. “Good morning!” Mike cheerfully greeted as soon as he caught up with Nicole. “You sound chirpy,” Nicole coldly stated. Well, she doesn’t seem to know how to express her emotions other than this way. “Not that I am complaining, though. I like this you way better than the Mike I sent home last night, a bit tipsy from a bottle of beer, as I have heard.”Mike roared in a more gleeful hoot of laughter. “I haven’t said thanks for the lift last night. My apologies. And thank you for so many things. Before I forget….” Mike cleared his throat before coll

Mike thought about texting back and sending her a message, but he was clueless about what he was going to say. Mike thought about telling Nicole of his response to the message she sent earlier about celebrating, in person. Since it was lunchtime, Mike was considering asking Nicole to join him. Although he could only afford the food available in the school cafeteria, Mike was hoping Nicole would not turn down his offer to buy her lunch for now. There is one major problem with his plans. Mike doesn’t know where to find Nicole within the whole campus. Mike did not get a copy of the itinerary of her subjects list. ‘Come to think of it. I don’t even know her major yet!’ Mike murmured.It has always been Nicole finding him first. Whether she would ask her bodyguards to fetch Mike or demand him to meet her somewhere, it had always been Nicole telling Mike where to meet. Mike felt lost. He only has an hour break. ‘Think! Think!’ Mike closed his eyes to concentrate. He tried to recall if
After thinking about how Mike could execute his move without compromising Nicole's safety inside the room, Mike came up with a crazy idea. He quickly looked around as if in search of something, and when he found it somewhere in the hallway, Mike did as indicated in its label, and the fire alarm system activated. Then from where he found the alarm button, Mike started to bang on every door he passed by."Get out of here! before the smoke gets worse!"Mike kept screaming like there was a real fire in the building, banging every door as if knocking on them to inform the people behind it and step out of the building as soon as they got to hear his voice. Those that heard him fled, and the panicked footsteps of people running their way out of the building could be heard. "This is not a drill! I repeat! This is not a drill!" Mike kept shouting. There were only a few students left, so it was not much of a chaos. No one got hurt on their way out, and Mike saw some people running their way i
“Boss!” Fhadz exclaimed in horror as soon as he saw Nicole almost looking lifeless in Mike’s arms. The bodyguard feared more for his life. This was a total negligence on his part as the head of Nicole’s security team. No matter if it was a concrete fact that Nicole had clearly ordered him and the rest of her bodyguards to stand post outside the buildings wherever she would be taking her lessons, including when she went to Mike’s house, the employee’s housing building, that wouldn’t be enough to reason out to their bosses, Nicole’s parents, the parker couple, once they know about this incident at school. “What the hell did they do to her?” Fhadz murmured while assisting Mike to step out of the room. “Can you ask anyone to bring the vehicle right in front of the building so we do not attract too much attention while we move her out of here?” Mike asked Fhadz worriedly. Fhadz readily agreed. He dialed a number quickly and demanded to make sure the car arrived within ten minutes. Then
