Chapter 57 You Are The Only Woman I Want To Hold

When Jared heard Kerr, he came to Bonnie and picked her up, promptly leading her to the ward.

Nicole frowned, disappointed that Kerr didn't make an effort to help Bonnie. However, she had another concern in mind, so she decided to follow Jared and see how Bonnie was doing. She only didn't count with a firm grip on her arm, holding her in place.

"You are the only woman I want to hold in my arms."

Kerr wasn't the type of man who would embrace any woman unless he had to.

His eyes never left Nicole's as he told her that. Not even the hardness on her delicate features could've intimidated him to turn away from her.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I just want to see Bonnie."

Although she would never admit it, Kerr's words caused her cheeks to flush in a light shade of pink. As she distanced herself from him and walked towards the ward, she absentmindedly put on a smile.

Before Nicole could walk into the room, Jared came out and tried to soothe her.

"There's nothing to worry about, Director Ning. Miss Bonnie Ning just got scared. She will be fine as long as she rests for a while."

Noticing the blush adorning Nicole's cheeks, Jared's face twisted with worry.

"Director Ning, is something wrong? You seem quite flushed!"

Unconsciously, Nicole brought her hands to her reddened face.

"I'm fine," she said, trying to hide her embarrassment. "Thank you, Mr. Kang."

Nicole walked by Jared and went straight to the room. Inside, she approached Bonnie and sat next to her.

With concern, Nicole inspected Bonnie's pale face and looked at the hospital gown set beside her.

Then, she gently lifted the blanket covering Bonnie's body and carefully changed her clothes. C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

"No! Don't touch me!"

In her sleep, Bonnie had the feeling someone was touching her against her will. She woke up frightened, waving her arms and groaning as if she was trying to resist an assault.

"It's all right, Bonnie, don't be afraid. It's all right!"

Seeing the fear on her face, Nicole held her hand in order to soothe her.

"Don't worry. You've just had a nightmare."

Nicole gave Bonnie a few gentle pats on the back, hoping this would bring some sense of comfort to her.

"Sister!"

Looking upon Nicole's concerned eyes, Bonnie sought the safety of her arms and held tightly to them before bursting into tears.

Nicole hugged her sister back, silently allowing her to get it all out of her chest. Her lips curved into a smile as she felt relieved after hearing the name Bonnie used to call her.

Meanwhile, Kerr was watching everything from the outside. He witnessed the whole scene with a glint of satisfaction in his eyes.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Qin is awake and he's looking for Miss Bonnie."

Jared wasn't expecting that Ken would wake up anytime soon, so he hurried to report it to Kerr.

"Got it."

Since Kerr didn't wish to disturb Nicole and Bonnie, he turned around and headed towards Ken's room.

Jared glanced at Bonnie's door and caught a glimpse of her crying while Nicole embraced her. Saddened, he lowered his head for an instant before following Kerr.

"Did you get any information about that car, Jared?"

Sitting on the couch, Kerr raised his head and stared at Jared.

"Not really. My men found the car on the roadside, but there was no one in it or any clue left."

Jared looked at him apprehensively. Whoever they were dealing with was smarter than they could've foreseen.

"Who did you see?"

Kerr turned his attention to Ken lying on the hospital bed. His accusing tone could lead anyone to believe he thought it was unlikely that Ken hadn't seen something.

Ken's mind was elsewhere, on Bonnie, when he heard Kerr's inquiry. It took him a short while to recover from his daze, but once he did, he didn't bother to meet Kerr's eyes.

"No, they had their faces masked. All I could tell was that one of them was skinny but strong. Even though I didn't have the chance to fight him, I could see it.

There were at least two people. I was so distracted I didn't notice it was an ambush until it was too late."

He was so concerned with saving Bonnie he didn't see who had drugged him approaching.

"I don't believe they were expecting me to show up. They've just drugged me to have a safe out. If they wanted to cause me any harm, they wouldn't have just given me a tranquilizer."

Kerr narrowed his eyes as he listened to his friend's tale. In his mind, he wondered how long had this man been around.

"Investigate," Kerr told Jared. "They know who we are."

They might not have been the target intended, but Kerr still had to know who exactly he was dealing with. Such a dangerous character couldn't be up to any good.

"I know."

Jared grabbed his phone and gave the order to his men.

"Maybe Bonnie knows something we don't."

The underlying matter was connected to Bonnie's kidnapping. Kerr felt he had to ask her more about it.

"I'll ask her!"

Ken was over the moon now that he had a reason to go after Bonnie. However, he had only had the time to lift his blanket when someone knocked on the door.

Knock, knock, knock.

Jared headed to the door and opened it. On the other side, he found Nicole and Bonnie waiting. He didn't say anything; he just stepped aside and made room for them to come in.

"Bonnie has something to tell you."

Nicole's eyes landed on Ken, sitting on the bed. The corner of her lips slightly lifted when she saw him. Although she hadn't completely forgotten about what he had done to her sister, today, after seeing him risking his life to save her, she was willing to overlook a few things.

She saw how Ken cared about Bonnie. If the way they had met was wrong, they could try to make it right now.

As soon as Kerr saw Nicole, he stood up and walked towards her before taking her hand into his.

"Ken also has something to tell your sister," Kerr said.

He led Nicole out of Ken's room, so the latter and Bonnie could have some privacy.

With a considerate smile, Jared gently closed the door behind them.

A moment later, Kerr asked Nicole to stay in the hospital and rest, but she refused since it was already dawn outside.

Sitting in his car, Nicole watched the sun rising in the east. The early morning had her feeling peaceful and energized.

Finally, she was able to get Bonnie's forgiveness. She felt as if a heavy weight had been taken off her shoulders.
