Chapter 111

Adeline's POVJayden seemed to be grinning. "Partner from where? You're the one who committed the crime that landed you in jail, not me. I'm just interested in having that woman.""You!" I quickly stood up from my chair and pointed at his face.I was angry at his words that cornered me. In fact, he was also one of the causes of Nicole's death."How easy it is for you to abdicate your responsibility!" I was still pointing at the man's face, which still looked disinterested. "I've been giving you information about that woman and helping you get close to her all this time, but you don't want to return the favor?"Jayden's face hardened. He came back closer to the glass, towards me, and hit the table hard. The look in his eyes that looked angrier shocked me, and I did not expect this change in his attitude."Hey, you're the one who tried to kill that woman without my knowledge." He said, almost sounding like a growl. "You made me so angry that I'm going to make sure you rot in prison for

Chapter 112

Nicole's POVIt's been a few days since I've been able to sleep peacefully. There was a restless and uncomfortable feeling every time I closed my eyes, and then I would wake up suddenly, even before morning came or one of the servants came to help me get ready. Just like now.I opened my eyes in the still-dark room, looking at the window displaying raindrops heavy enough to almost form a light mist. "It's raining...." I muttered under my breath.I groaned softly, then tried to get up from my bed, approaching the window while hugging my body so I could stare at the raindrops more clearly. The sound of the rain made me feel more relaxed, although I wasn't sleepy after waking up suddenly either.I reached for my cell phone and contacted Key to make me some tea.A knock on the door sounded a moment later. "Come in," I spoke so the man could enter immediately without waiting anymore.I was already seated and was massaging my forehead a few times. I could see Key putting down the tea he had

Chapter 113

Nicole's POV"Why is that man here, mom?" Richard spoke to me, who was still silent.I also didn't know why that man was around an area quite far from the office or the lunch place that was his usual destination. He couldn't be wasting his time traveling around the city, which was taking up much time unless he knew where Richard and I were.While I was thinking, Chris crossed over alone and walked towards us. He smiled at Richard, and I saw my son looking seriously and coldly at the man. There was no more pretense on his face like when he first met him."Hi, my little buddy. We finally meet again." Chris was friendly to my son, who was looking at him sharply.The two of them stared at each other while I watched. At that moment, I realized that Chris and Richard had something in common with each other, as their identities as father and son were unknown to many people.Chris was firm while running his company, as well as his courage to do whatever he wanted at any given time or circumst

Chapter 114

Nicole's POV"Ah... ah, no...." I muttered in a trembling voice, feeling my vision start to blur.That accident a few years ago put me through a terrifying, traumatizing thing that still torments me to this day. The loud crashing sounds and accidents with any transportation, primarily cars I see in any media always negatively affect me.I got better while undergoing therapy from the Duncan Family's personal doctor in the first few years I met my father, and I even drove myself without the help of others more often in my third year, without the need to be supervised by others unless I was attending a significant event.Now, I saw for myself how the car accident happened near me. The two cars that collided were already emitting smoke and then exploded and spewed flames from the front engine, making me remember the thing I experienced a few years ago, almost taking my life and Richard's at the same time."Mom, Mom…." I could hear Richard's voice, but my memories of that time were still

Chapter 115

Nicole's POVEdwin was next to me, watching me so intently that I couldn't ignore him. I exhaled, staring at the old man who had a similar expression to when I fell ill a few days ago."What's wrong, Father?" I asked.Edwin shook his head, letting out his breath before lowering his gaze from my face. "I was just thinking that your current condition reminds me of the past, but you're much better now."I tried to smile, but it was hard to do so when my mind automatically replayed the events almost completely buried in my memory. The sound of the explosion and the heat from the flames that nearly touched me, the car accident at that time, really affected me to the point that the effects caused me to have a panic attack and end up lying down like this.Richard and Chris saw that effect firsthand earlier, while Edwin had seen my reaction like this several times whenever there was an accident or news about the same thing.That was also influenced by the condition of my body, which was alrea

Chapter 116

Chris' POV"This is weird," I mumbled, touching my lips unconsciously while thinking about the woman I had just met again but also had to leave with her father.Nicole, who previously looked breathless, scared, and trembling, made me very worried about her. Without thinking about that moment, I quickly carried her to the car and asked the driver to take us to the hospital.The woman could not speak at all, and her hands were limp when grasped. I couldn't take my eyes off Nicole, so I watched as she was examined and sedated to rest.Throughout the incident, I was afraid that something would happen to her, but I also felt strange about myself. I realized that I wasn't the kind of man who could easily open his heart to a woman to feel like this, affected by the condition of another person who didn't even have any relationship with me.Only one person could make me feel this way, the woman who was declared dead a few years ago due to a single accident. Nicole Martinez.".... Mr. Chris."

Chapter 117

Nicole's POV"Ugh." I held my head, feeling a stab of pain that was quite severe and left a lingering dizzy sensation.I closed my eyes to help ease the pain I was experiencing, then heard someone stepping closer and asking about my condition. Key. "Miss Nicole, are you alright?" He asked, sounding worried.I was silent for a few moments before nodding, flashing a smile to appease him. "I'm fine, just dizzy."I stared at the computer screen blankly, thinking about the symptoms of my headache that were still returning even though I was feeling better. I had so many things to accomplish that there was no time to waste, which was probably why I was also experiencing stress that was affecting my health.I'm relieved that I didn't show this to my father or Richard. Both of them could suddenly become overprotective and force me to rest without taking into account the things I have to do from now on.A document was suddenly placed on my desk. I raised my gaze, seeing Key's genuinely worried

Chapter 118

Nicole's POV"It's so nice to be together for dinner," Selena said, chuckling as she watched us in her dining room.Some of the servants had already served the meal for the evening, which was quite a variety, and white wine was used for the accompanying drinks. Selena and I sat next to each other while her husband and Chris sat across from us.I could only return her smile without saying anything, still not expecting to meet Chris at Selena's house. I didn't know that they had a relationship with him. Still, after thinking about it, maybe it was only natural that fellow businessmen in the same city would have a relationship with each other.I wanted to say goodbye as soon as I saw the man, but Selena was quick to tell us something, suggesting that she and I follow the dinner prepared by the cook the woman had hired especially for today.Selena was smiling. "Come on, eat up, Miss Nicole."I nodded and began to eat the food, which tasted quite delicious, but I still didn't get rid of th

Chapter 119

Chris' POVI was still in the car, staring at my hands and pressing my fingers together with a frantic mind. There were several things I was thinking about after Evan told me the shocking rumour.Feelings of disbelief, confusion and trying to process the information in my head were mixed. In the end, I quickly chose the quickest and surest way out that I could do. Go to that person's house, who knew Nicole the best even though I didn't want to admit it.The car I was driving stopped at the same-looking housing complex. "Here you are, sir." The driver spoke.I looked out the window, noticing the small-sized house that was identical to the other houses that lined up around it. What differentiated the houses from each other were the numbers and the door decorations above the small windows.The house I saw now was obviously very different from the Martinez Family's previous residence. It couldn't be compared by too much class. I realised that the effects of their bankruptcy could have bro

Chapter 120

Chris' POVI looked at Smith, who looked back at me, seeing his eyes that clearly showed the alcohol that had entered his body and affected his attitude. His life was ruined, but he was still looking for any way he could get a little money to buy his drinks.I didn't really care about her reasoning. My desire to get information about Nicole made me have to give in to him. I finally nodded, agreeing to his request even though I still had some reservations."Alright, I'll give you a few hundred dollars at your convenience if you tell me about her."He drank the remaining alcohol in his bottle before sighing and laughing. Smith was obviously laughing at me for so easily giving away money with so little information, but I didn't care. I was sure that he was just as in need of the money so he could quickly buy a drink and wouldn't waste my time any longer.The old man looked like a madman with his unkempt appearance and the bottle in his hand, but I still waited quietly for him to tell me
