Chapter 96
Seeing that Nicola Clinton didn’t say anything, Laura Kent thought that she had made it through to him. Thinking of her bad attitude before, she slowed down her tone.
“Nicola, I did this for your own good. Although you are not my son, you should have seen that I have always treated you as my own son for so many years.”
She patted Elena Kent’s hand and said, “Elena is a good girl. You have been engaged for so long and she has been waiting for you for so many years. You are not young anymore. It’s time for you to get married.”
“Please listen to me this time. Just as I said, marry Elena two months later.”
“No.”
Laura Kent was a little confused. “What did you say?”
Nicola Clinton refused bluntly again, “I said no, I won’t marry her.”Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“Nicola!”
“I’m in charge of my marriage. Let’s talk about it later.” Nicola Clinton looked at Laura Kent]. “I hope mother won’t make such a decision without consulting me next time.”
Laura Kent was taken aback. She was sure that Nicola Clinton had cast a warning glance at her.
Elena Kent felt wronged.
She bit her lips to calm herself down.
The complacency and excitement at the banquet before seemed to be a joke.
The more she thought about it, the more difficult for her to calm down.
She suddenly raised her head and asked, “why?”
Why?
Nicola Clinton thought about it subconsciously.
She knew what kind of person Elena Kent was.
Thinking of what she had done, he couldn’t have any feelings for her, let alone marry her.
Nicola Clinton’s silence made Elena Kent more and more nervous.
A wave of fear swept over her.
She suddenly stood up and grabbed Nicola Clinton’s sleeve. “Nicola, did I do something wrong? That’s why you don’t want to marry me. If I did something wrong, please tell me. I’ll change it!”
Her eyes were full of plea.
All the time, Elena Kent’s biggest dream was to marry Nicola Clinton and become his wife. Seeing that Nicola Clinton was about to give up, he didn’t agree.
No… she couldn’t accept such a result.
Nicola Clinton lowered his eyes and pulled her sleeve out of her hand. “No.”
The coldness in his tone could not be concealed.
Elena Kent felt empty in her hand.
It was like the happiness that she had finally grasped was directly taken away by others.
“Nicola!” She shouted in panic.
Nicola Clinton turned around and walked upstairs. he said in a cold voice, “you didn’t do anything wrong. It’s just that two months later is not a good time. Don’t think too much. I have something to go back to the study.”
She was even unwilling to give him a decent excuse.
Elena Kent’s heart sank.
Seeing Nicola Clinton’s receding figure, she became more and more confused, but more determined.
The future wife of the Clinton family could only be her. The wife of Nicola Clinton could only be her.
She would never allow anyone to compete with her!
As soon as she returned to the study and finished her work on the computer, she received an email.
When Nicola Clinton was about to turn on her phone, her assistant called.
“President Nicola, I just sent you an email about the kidnapping of miss Amelia Wytte that you asked me to investigate.”
Nicola Clinton narrowed his eyes and asked, “have you found it out?”
It had been a long time since the incident happened, and it was time for them to find out the truth.
“Yes, sir.” The assistant said, “I have some clues now.”
“Say it.”
“I sent someone to look down the Youthotel and found a group that is specialized in these things. As long as they pay, they are willing to do anything. The reason why they attacked Amelia Wytte this time is that someone bribed them.”
“Who is it?” Nicola Clinton’s face darkened. She clenched her fists and held her phone tightly.
The assistant hesitated and didn’t dare to say, “it’s… I’m not sure who bought them off. It’s just that we’ve found something…”
Anyway, she had to say it sooner or later.
Anyway, she shouldn’t be the one to face Nicola Clinton’s anger in the end.
Thinking of this, the assistant took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to say, “we found that during that period of time, Miss Kent had just contacted the people of that organization.”
Although Elena Kent didn’t use her own phone or her own number, it was easy to find out Elena Kent by means of the people sent by her assistant.
“Who is it?” Nicola Clinton’s voice became colder and colder.
“It’s miss Elena Kent… But I only know that she has contacted the people of that organization. I’m not sure about anything else. The specific information has been sent to your e-mail.”
Nicola Clinton slowly closed his eyes, feeling a burning anger in his chest.
Through the phone, the assistant could hear his calm but oppressive breath.
She was even more nervous.
“President Nicola?”
“Continue to follow this investigation. I want to know the clear result as soon as possible!”
The assistant’s heart skipped a beat. “Yes!”
After hanging up the phone, Nicola Clinton leaned against the chair and rubbed between her eyebrows.
Elena Kent, Laura Kent, Amelia Wytte
All these things seemed very complicated and ridiculous.
Thinking of Laura Kent and Elena Kent, who were still sitting downstairs, and then thinking of Amelia Wytte, who had left with Eden Hawk, she felt more agitated.
He opened the e-mail and took a look at it. After a while, he had his own guess.
But he couldn’t bear to see it.
he threw away the mouse, picked up his coat on the back of the chair and walked out of the study to the backyard.
At this time, it was dark. There was no star in the sky, and there was no light at all. Only a street lamp was hung on the path at the corner of the pavilion in the backyard.
The whole yard was quiet.
Nicola Clinton walked along the path and saw the dark warehouse where Amelia Wytte lived.
Such an environment could not soothe his restlessness. He could only continue to walk along the yard, trying to ease his mood.
On the other side.
Elena Kent made the midnight snack by herself and walked towards the study with the lunch box.
Seeing that the door was not tightly closed and there was light coming out from it, she paused and knocked on the door. “Nicola, may I come in?”
