"What's the matter?" Edwin asked Nicole.
He noticed that Nicole was worried.
"Nothing. Grandpa, I'll leave Viola to you. I have to hurry back now."
"OK. Go with Steve."
"Okay."
Nicole agreed.
She quickly got back to the Green's with Steve. It was quiet. Laurence was not here, but Nicole felt that something was wrong.
"Ms. Nicole, stay in the car. I'll go take a look."
Steve said as he was about to get out of the car. However, Nicole immediately stopped him.
"Stay here. This place is so quiet that it worries me. Keep driving."
Nicole's face slightly clouded over.
Although Steve didn't know what Nicole meant, he still listened to her and changed into a higher gear. They passed the entrance of the Green's very fast.
Just as they were about to leave the entrance of the house, they saw a roadblock in front.
"Back off."
Nicole suddenly felt tortured by fear and anxiety.
It seemed that other than Dominic, there was someone else who wanted her dead.
Sure enough, there was someone behind Dominic.
When Steve was in reverse gear, four or five jeeps popped out from behind him. They were surrounded now.
"Ms. Nicole, we are ambushed."
Steve frowned.
Nicole was important to Edwin. Steve knew that he must keep her safe.
"Ms. Nicole, I'll drive the car and lure them away. Now get out of the car and run towards the house."
Steve's suggestion was directly rejected by Nicole.
"It's useless. Laurence is not here. Something must have happened. Right now, there must be people waiting for me inside the house. If I go there, I will be the fish in a barrel, which is exactly what they want."
"Then what should we do?"
Steve was a little worried.
Nicole smiled bitterly.
"I really don't want such a life, but I have no choice. My husband and my son are waiting for me to save them. So, I can only try my best. Let's fight. Steve, you have a gun on you, right?"
Steve froze for a moment.
He was Edwin's guard, so he naturally carried a gun with him. Why did Nicole ask?
"Ms. Nicole, you..."
"Give me one. I know that you always have two."
Steve hesitated for a moment, but still gave Nicole a gun.
Nicole directly fired at the outside.
At once, the city was disturbed by the clear sound of gunfire.
Today, citizens in the Seapolis City were trembling with fear. Not long ago, Dominic robbed the military vehicle. Now, there were gunshots from the Green's. Naturally, people's concern was all attracted.
"Let's go check what's going on."
The police took action as soon as possible.
When Jason learned that Dominic had robbed the military vehicle, he was a little suspicious. He had heard that the company of the Greens had given the employees an early holiday, and he was worried. So, he hurriedly called some of his own subordinates and rushed to the Green's. However, before Jason got there, he heard gunshots from the Green's.
"Hurry, let's go!"
The Dons quickly run to the house.
Nicole's gunshot alerted everyone.
The person hiding in the shadows ruthlessly hammered the steering wheel with his hand. He instructed fiercely, "Make it fast. The gunshot will bring everyone here. Then it will be hard to kill Nicole. If we can't finish the job, Major will make things difficult for us when we go back."
"But Harold, Nicole is in the car. There's nothing we can do without knowing where she is."
Harold's subordinates were in an awkward situation.
Harold said viciously, "Shoot at that military car. Nicole had fired the first shot. Let's make it bigger. Tell the sniper to kill Nicole the moment she exposes her head."
"Yes."
Nicole knew that her gunshot would bring her rescue, but she still had to count on herself for now.
She looked at Steve and whispered, "I've alerted them, and they are likely to go desperate. Steve, get down. Don't come out without my order. Keep your head down."
"Ms. Nicole, it is my job to protect you."
"Listen to me. Edwin is an old man now. You've been working for him for so long. Although you're his servant, you're more like a brother to him. I don't want my grandpa to suffer the pain of losing a brother at this age. I have to keep you safe."
Just as Nicole finished her words, continuous gunshots suddenly sounded from outside.
"Get down!"
She pressed down Steve's head and then quickly hid under the car seat.
The gunshots rained down.
It was a little difficult for her to escape unscathed now.
What should she do?
Nicole was at a loss.
Harold's people kept shooting the car. It would take some time for the rescuers to come here. Nicole had to save herself.
Nicole looked at Steve. Her gaze became determined.
Steve must be safe.
Nicole knew that as long as she and Steve were together, Steve would not have a chance to escape.
She bit her lower lip and directly opened the car door. She rolled on the ground and then ran away from the car.
"Ms. Nicole."
Steve shouted in horror. He noticed that as Nicole jumped out of the car, she was under thousands of bullets.
She could even be shot like a dog.
Steve was so worried, but he couldn't leave the car.
Now Nicole knew what a rain of bullets was.
The bullets brushed past her when she rolled on the ground. Before she could do anything, a large iron pot was thrown over to her. It gave Nicole enough protection.
The bullet was penetrating, but the iron pot gave Nicole time to save herself.
Before Nicole could figure out what was going on, she heard a familiar voice.
"Nicole, this way."
