Read Chapter 1567 of The Divorced Billionaire Heiress-By I Wanna Eat Meat
Nicole struggled to survey this room. It felt very familiar, but she just could not remember it.
Suddenly, she remembered.
When Nicole came back from that deserted island, she stayed in this hospital.
Director Sven personally received her. Nicole’s body was sore when she moved.
Certain unforgettable things suddenly rushed into her mind.
That desperate moment, that failed cooperation, Caleb’s gloomy smiling face, and Clayton’s firm gaze…
In an instant, Nicole felt like she woke up from an elaborate dream, dripping with sweat.
She sat up violently. Her hand was still stuck with needles, but she tugged on it. It was very painful, but she did not care.
If it was not for Caleb drugging her, which made her weak, Nicole would probably think that it was all a dream.
That would have been great. Unfortunately, that was not the case.
The loud explosion from earlier made her heart tremble. Clayton protected her and blocked the danger of the blast for Nicole.
Nicole could not believe that she survived.
However, no one was in her room. Clayton was not here. For the first time, Nicole felt an unspeakable fear from the bottom of her heart.
Nicole pulled the needle out of her arm, got out of bed, and ran out of the ward with her bare feet.
The light outside the door was clear and cold. Nicole was immersed in the darkness and felt uncomfortable for a moment, so she stopped dead i n her tracks.
Her head was dizzy, and she could barely stand.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of her eyes and held her arm.
“Lil N…”
Hearing the familiar voice, Nicole opened her eyes and looked at Grant, who was in front of her.
Nicole had not seen him for only a few days, but she felt as if a very long time had passed.
Grant looked a lot more haggard as he looked at her with nervousness and concern in his eyes.
Nicole’s eyes instantly reddened. “Big Brother…”
Grant carefully touched her head, wanting to say
something to comfort her, but his throat felt astringent. He could not say it.
There was silence all around.
Grant took a deep breath and suddenly pulled Nicole into his arms. His gentle voice carried an angry chill.
“Don’t worry, Lil N… I’ll avenge you…”
The suppressed grievance and bitterness in Nicole’s heart gushed out.
During those days that Nicole was with Caleb, she did not suffer any inhuman abuse, but he had drugged her, which made Nicole feel powerless against any violence.
It felt like he was using the gentlest way to wear out her dignity.
Nicole was not even in a position to resist. She could only watch and act like she did not care.
However, those experiences that did not belong to her made her uncomfortable.
Nicole did not do anything wrong, and it was not even her fault.
She was innocent and was dragged into this mess because of Eric, so she felt aggrieved.
She almost died.
Nicole could not hold back her tears and cried out loud.
Grant stroked her head like a child and softly comforted her. He did not ask her anything and waited for her to slowly ease her emotions.
It was only when she heard a set of light footsteps that Nicole slowly stopped crying.
Aida carefully spoke in a soft voice, “Lil N, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere when you woke up?”
Nicole paused and shook her head. “Sorry to trouble you, Aida…”
Aida looked at Nicole with heartache and shook her head.
“We’re family, so there’s no such thing as trouble. ” Aida choked a little. In the next second, she looked away. When Aida saw Nicole’ s bare feet, she was a little dumbfounded.
Aida immediately ran in and came out with a pair of cotton slippers. She bent down and placed them in front of Nicole. “Put on your shoes. Don’t catch a cold…”
Nicole saw this scene and felt her heart clench. Her tear glands became even more active.
Grant then noticed that Nicole did not wear shoes and wrinkled his brows. “Quick, put them on.
Forget it, I’ll carry you back…”
He was just about to carry Nicole back to the room when Nicole took a step back. She hurriedly put on her shoes and asked, “Big Brother, where’s Clayton? How is he?”
