“So, are you asking me to make a move immediately?”
“Yes. Either you get rid of Ms. Lane, or you… force Sir Musgrave to hand down the title to you.”
Get rid of Nicole?
No way!
I can’t let her die. I can’t do it. I just can’t.
However, it was not easy for him to force Stephen to hand down the title to him either.
“Tell me how I should force him to hand down the title to me.”
Upon hearing his question, the bodyguard realized he was truly in love with Nicole. That was why he had resorted to a riskier plan of forcing Stephen.
However, the other plan involved Nicole as well. The bodyguard did not know if Levant could do it or not.
“You’ll have to kidnap Ms. Lane and use her to threaten Sir Musgrave. Sir Musgrave won’t let his biological daughter be in any danger. So she is the most valuable bargaining chip. No one else will be useful when it comes to threatening the duke.”
Levant hesitated.
Am I really going to use Nicole to get the title?
Will she hate me?
However, he had worked hard for many years for the title of Duke. So he could not afford to end up with nothing at the end of the day.
“Can we make a move using her current condition?”
“Mr. Levant, her condition has already been stabilized. You can kidnap her and hire a skilled doctor to be by her side all day.”
Levant hesitated. He wanted to know if this plan would endanger Nicole.
When the bodyguard saw him making calls to get advice from professionals, he sighed quietly.
Mr. Levant is exceptionally careful whenever this woman is involved.
After ending the call, he instructed his bodyguard, “We’ll make a move two days later.”
The bodyguard felt that two days too long; he was afraid that the more they delayed, the less likely they would succeed. However, the stubborn look on Levant’s face and the special place Nicole was placed in his heart made the bodyguard gave in.
In Stephen’s study room.
His butler, Jacob Hill, brought someone in, stating that the latter had something important to hand to Stephen.
Knowing that the man was from the hospital, Stephen instructed Jacob to leave the room.
When he took the folder from the man, he impatiently opened it to find a DNA report in it.
After carefully reading through the report and the results section, the feeling of delight and shock overtook his heart.
“Sir Musgrave, I shall be heading back to the hospital now.”
“Sure.”
The door opened and closed again. Sir Musgrave read the report again.
A relieved smile crept upon his worldly face.
The daughter he had been looking for was Nicole. No wonder I thought her eyes looked similar to Rosalie’s and she reminds me of Rosalie!
How amazing is it to be related by blood?
Is this a chance given by God to make up for my mistakes?
Right then, despite the overwhelming joy, he frowned.
Does Levant know that she’s my daughter since he was the one who brought Nicole back?
Is Levant’s love for Nicole a coincidence, or does he have other ideas or even motives?
My stepson is in love with a woman, and that woman is my biological daughter…
What a coincident.
He scoffed. It was too coincidental that he felt things were more than what met the eyes.
At Westside Hospital.
“Why isn’t Mommy waking up yet?”
Juan could barely sit still as he watched his unconscious mother.
“Doctor said Mommy will wake. The surgery was a success.”
Right as Kyle finished speaking, Nina pouted and rolled her eyes at Maya.
Maya knew what she was telling her.
With a hung head, as if she had done something horribly wrong, she rubbed her plump hands in silence.
If she had not been greedy, Nicole would not have accompanied her to buy snacks, and she would not have ended up in this state.
This is my fault.
My gluttony had put Mommy in danger.
From now on, I won’t be greedy.
That was the simple thought of a naïve child. She did not know that the eyes that were watching Nicole in the dark would not let her off so easily.
Even if she were not involved in the accident, there would be many more traps awaiting her.
Evan’s gloomy eyes were fixed on Nicole’s pale pallor.
She seemed to have lost much weight ever since she came to K Nation.
