Lucas clearly sensed something was wrong. He wanted to say something but stopped when he saw the look on Nicole’s face.
The bodyguards outside didn’t make any sounds. This servant could slip in without being noticed, from which Nicole could tell that it was nearly impossible for them to escape. Even though Lucas and her could fight, she didn’t want to take the risk. Also, she didn’t know what would happen with Samuel. Right now, they had to sit still.
When Nicole asked her those questions, the servant subconsciously paused and bowed her head.
“I’m new here.”
Her voice was unnaturally hoarse. They didn’t know if she intended to do that or it was her natural voice.
Nicole held Lucas’s hand and said calmly, “Let’s get this straight. How are my people out there?”
The servant froze for a second and then looked at her in the eyes. She was impressed by Nicole.
Nicole finally got to see her face clearly. She looked completely normal and would get no attention when walking on the streets. But her eyes seemed kind of dull.
“What? Are my questions too hard?”
Nicole lowered her voice.
“No. They fell asleep.”
The servant was surprisingly cooperative. She gave her the answer quickly and didn’t make any other moves. Maybe from her perspective, Nicole and Lucas were just a harmless woman and an innocent boy. But if they had really investigated Nicole, they would know that she could fight. The calmness in the servant’s eyes meant that this place was completely controlled by their people.
Nicole was thinking to herself quickly and then asked, “What do you want from me? Don’t hurt my son and I’ll cooperate.”
Her words amazed the servant.
To show her sincerity, Nicole switched her phone in front of her. Lucas did the same thing but her fingers slightly twisted.
Seeing that, the servant seemed to be a little relieved.
“Please come with me. Our master wants to meet you.”
Even though they didn’t know who the master was, Nicole had a feeling that they were getting closer to the truth.
Lucas was behaving well and followed Nicole.
Walking outside the house, Nicole was glad she didn’t get physical with the servant. The bodyguards here were all sleeping on the ground, including the servants of the kitchen and the yard.
Nicole frowned and asked, “Are they gonna be alright?”
“Of course. The master only wants to meet you, Mrs. Green. We won’t do anything that upset you if you cooperate.”
Nicole didn’t say anything and held Lucas in her arms.
Lucas was struggling to get back on the ground but Nicole stopped her.
When they went outside the mansion, they saw a car with a fake license in front of the gate. The car looked normal and the license was fake so even if there were security cameras, they couldn’t find out who the owner was. It seemed that they had prepared pretty well.
Nicole couldn’t help worrying about Samuel. She wondered if this whole thing was a trap and Tim was only a bait. But there was no time for them to leave a message.
At this moment, a deliveryman who was riding a scooter stopped in front of them.
“Is Miss Nicole here?”

What is it with Chinese authors.
