Chapter 273 Capture
Niki was enjoying herself when a man came to her with a heavy step. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
The man’s tall shadow fell on the ground, shrouding Niki in black.
Niki felt a chill in her back. She looked up and saw Julian in a suit, looking at
her unhappily.
The man’s profile looked strained, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, as if he
were in a very bad mood.
Niki was nervous and wondered why Julian looked so bad.
She quickly pulled back her swagger and replaced it with a harmless smile.
“Julian!”
Niki’s sweet voice seemed pleasantly surprised and excited to see Julian.
Julian ignored her delight and looked at her coldly.
“Are you in trouble?”
He said a few words in a faint voice, but with the ultimate disgust.
Before he left, he explicitly told Niki not to cause trouble at the meeting.
Niki froze for a second.
The first thing that went through her mind was… Could it be that Julian saw her getting a bunch of New York’s ladies arguing and even fighting?
Shit. She didn’t think she’d be seen.
But the panic only flickered for a second before she forced herself to calm
down.
Maybe Julian didn’t see it.
I can’t just admit it foolishly.
Niki shook her head innocently. “I… I’m not.”
“No?”
Julian stared at her, his eyes as sharp as a hawk.
The words of the meddlesome woman still lingered in Julian’s ear.
“Niki has been bullied and you’re still here! Aren’t you going to find Niki?”
After watching Natalie leave, he first went to see the divine doctor of the
Spears family. As he expected, he was refused.
After he was refused, he came to Niki without a moment’s delay.
Because he was afraid that she was really being bullied.
After all, this was Chicago, not Los Angeles, and if something had happened,
or if she had messed with someone…
He couldn’t protect her like he could in Los Angeles.
But when he looked for Niki in the crowd for so long, he almost thought he
couldn’t find her…
Julian sees Niki sitting on a dark red leather sofa, resplendent in her
gorgeous dress.
Niki had a glass of wine in one hand, her legs crossed, her dainty toes
quivered comfortably in white satin heels.
Where did she look like she’s being bullied?
Looking at this, it’s a bit like she’s bullying others.
Seeing Niki in this state, Julian’s face looked bad and he asked her if she was
in trouble.
Where in the world did someone get bullied and still smile?
Niki, unaware of Julian’s anger, remained innocent, even aggrieved.
“I really didn’t cause any trouble… don’t you believe it?”
Julian looked expressionless.
“I’ve never been to a place like this, with all these rich people next to me. If I
say the wrong thing, I’ll get in trouble.”
“I’m so scared. Why should I start trouble?”
As if to show her understanding, Niki raised her eyebrows as if she’s thinking
about Julian.
“If I get into trouble, I might not only get killed myself, but you too.”
“I have to think of you, if not of myself, and I will never let you go into the
dangerous state because of me.”
The girl’s words were soft like marshmallow, but there was a protective tone
in them.
The combination of the two did not make him feel strange, but made him
feel warm in the heart.
Julian pressed his lips. “Really?”
“Of course it’s true.” Niki nodded frantically, wanting to rip her heart out and
show Julian.
“And when I first came in, I was so scared that I almost fell down. You helped
me…”
“How can I dare to quarrel with these distinguished ladies when I cannot
keep my feet steady? I have to pluck up courage even to speak to them.”
The words were well spoken, coupled with Niki’s acting skills and facial expressions, and Julian’s doubts were instantly dismissed.
But the question had to be asked.
He looked up at Niki. “Then why did someone tell me you were being bullied,
and tell me to come to you quickly?”
“Is that person lying to me?”
Niki frowned. “Who would say that?”
The woman who drove you here last time after you got hurt.”
Julian did not know Lara’s identity or her name, and the only thing he remembered about her was that she drove to the Graham family.
Niki thought about Julian’s words. The person who brought her back?
Lara?
She was so caught up in her triumph that she almost forgot Lara.
Niki felt bad.
Julian noticed that Niki’s back was stiff and her lips were compressed into a
tense line.
“What’s the matter?”
Niki snapped back. She forced a smile. “Nothing.”
“I think she was wrong.”
“There are so many people in here, it’s bound to be wrong.”
Julian frowned again. “Wrong?”
He had a feeling that something was wrong.
He opened his mouth and tried to pursue it further, but suddenly there was a
confused noise in his ear.
Niki also heard the sound, and she looked to the source of the sound.
The people who had just gathered to study medicine were huddled together
in one place, chattering about something.
On closer inspection, the expressions on their faces were all discontent, as if
a little angry.
“Julian…… What’s wrong with them?”
Niki squeezed her eyes and asked in time, “Should we go and see?”
She could still escape Julian’s questioning.
Julian looked out at the noisy crowd. Naturally, he was curious.
The man was so focused on that that he forgot the question he was going to
ask Niki.
He nodded. “Let’s go and see.”
Niki was happy, she immediately nodded, “Good!”
Her hand came naturally into Julian’s arm, and she pulled him toward the
front.
Get Bo
Julian’s arm was touched so violently by the woman that he felt an urge to
push Niki away.
The man didn’t take a step forward.
Niki turned her head, confused. “What’s wrong with you?”
Julian stifled his emotions. He managed to take a step and say, “Let’s go.”
They walked towards the noisy crowd.
Before they could get near, they heard the voices of the men.
“It’s time for the divine doctor of the Spears family to show up. How come
we haven’t seen him yet?”
“Don’t tell me I spent all this money and you made a fool of me!
“Do you know how much money I can make in an hour?” one man, dressed in
a custom-made suit, shouted angrily.
“I came to this dump for him, and I didn’t even see the divine doctor’s face.
What a waste of my time!”
“I lost hundreds of millions of dollars in just a few hours. Who will
compensate me?!”
