Olivia was about to ask the special nurse outside what had just happened, but she suddenly heard a low snort from Nicole.
Although the noise was vague and small, she felt worried.
"Nicole, are you alright?"
She asked worriedly.
Nicole felt weak all over, her legs giving way. She said, "I'm fine. I just feel a little weak."
"You ... you can't go in!"
Olivia was talking to Nicole, but she suddenly raised her voice. Before Nicole knew what was going on, the bathroom door was flung open, and Tim suddenly appeared in front of Nicole.
"Why did you come in?"
Nicole was surprised, and her hand that was held against the wall almost slipped off.
Without saying anything, Tim carried her in his arms and strode into the ward.
"Hey, Tim, I admit that you saved Nicole, and I'm grateful for that. But you've gone too far. Nicole was in the bathroom just now. If she hadn't tidied herself up yet, what would others think of her if you went in like this?"
Olivia felt that Tim was simply too bold now.
Wasn't Jason outside the ward?
How did he let Tim in?
Besides, didn't Tim go back to rest?
Why did he suddenly come back?
Olivia had a series of questions, but before she could ask, she saw Tim put Nicole on the bed and gently roll up her pants.
"Tim, that's enough!"
Olivia hastily pushed him away, but she accidentally touched the wound on his shoulder.
He gave a low snort, blood oozing out of his clothes, which was a startling sight.
Nicole suddenly felt a lump in her throat. She didn't know how to express her indescribable gratitude.
Saying thank you was not enough to express her gratitude for what he had done for her, but if she didn't say anything, she felt that she owed him a lot.
"Olivia, forget it. I just fell and my knee hurts a little."
Nicole was going to keep it from Olivia lest she would be worried, but now it seemed that Tim knew what had happened.
Tim turned grim. After she spoke, he looked up straight at her face, but he met her eyes.
There were gratitude and other emotions in her eyes, which dispelled all his anger.
"You are a grownup and mother of two children. Why don't you take good care of yourself? I took pains to rescue you not to see you treat yourself like this."
Tim was angry, but he involuntarily softened his voice.
Noticing his awkwardness, Nicole smiled and said, "I just felt weak and fell. You sound like I've committed an extremely heinous crime."
"Isn't that the case? Did I get you wrong? Do you think you're Wonder Woman? Or an intimidating queen? You are reckless."
When Tim thought of what Nicole looked like before she fainted, his heart tightened.
He didn't know if he could bear the consequence again, but he couldn't let it go anymore.
Noticing the harmony and even the intimacy between Nicole and Tim, Olivia waved her hand at the special nurse and quietly went out of the ward with her.
She knew it wasn't proper.
Nicole was a married woman. If she was seen alone with a playboy like Tim in her room, people with evil intentions would sling mud at her.
However, Olivia felt that Nicole should be accompanied by someone who took care of her right now.
She had that person would be Samuel, but where was he now?
Olivia had an increasing prejudice against Samuel, and she even wished Tim could snatch Nicole away.
This was the first time she had seen Tim go mad like this for a woman.
Jason was still outside. He was taken aback when he saw Olivia come out.
"How could you leave Nicole alone with Tim?"
"Then why did you let him in, Mr. Jason?"
Her words baffled Jason.
"What could I do if he insisted to enter?"
Jason was obviously making up an excuse.
Olivia smiled and said, "Mr. Jason, you also feel that Nicole needs someone to take care of her, right?"
Jason sighed at her guess. "But this is unfair to Tim. We both know that Nicole has only Samuel in her heart. No matter how well Tim treats her, he can only be her friend."
"That's enough. It's good that he could accompany her as a friend at present."
Her words silenced Jason.
That was right!
Nicole was reticent after she experienced life and death, and no one knew what had happened to her during the five days. Therefore it was inevitable for people to guess the bitterness that she had tasted.
Tim was the first person who discovered Nicole, and he knew how Nicole looked like when he rescued her. Perhaps Nicole only wanted to stay with Tim now?
Actually, Nicole was embarrassed.
Tim frowned slightly and whispered, "Do you know where you were kept captive?"
"Crown Club?"
This was Nicole's guess.
She thought it was a clubhouse. Furthermore, she was kidnapped near the Crown Club in the beginning. If she were the kidnappers, she would have chosen the Crown Club as the place. After all, no one would have thought that she was kept captive there after she had been released out of the club.
However, Tim shook his head.
"No. Although it's a clubhouse, it's not the Crown Club. It's a club owned by the Don family."
"The Don family?"
"Yes! Besides, Viola seems to have escaped from the Don’s."
Nicole frowned.
"The bodyguards at the Dons’ are excellent, and ordinary people can't possibly escape. Viola was actually able to escape?"
"Yes. I conducted an investigation on it. There was a bodyguard guarding Viola at the Don’s. She seduced him with her beauty, and he helped her escape from the Don’s.
Tim told Nicole everything he knew.
Nicole shook her head and said, "The bodyguards at the Dons’ are basically retired soldiers instead of mercenaries. And they were not chosen from outside. How could Viola seduce any of them? It doesn't sound right."
"Do you think so? Jason is outside right now. Do you want to ask him in person?"
Tim had been suspicious of the Don family.
Nicole shook her head and said, "I don't want to ask him for the time being. If Viola wants to deal with me, she will give herself away. Just like Swift, wasn't she unable to restrain herself? But this is very odd. The Green family is careful, so how did Swift manage to escape?"
She had been baffled by this.
Tim whispered, "Could there be a Don at the Green's?"
"Why are you always picking on the Don family?"
Nicole smiled faintly, but Tim glared at her.
"That old lady from the Don family wishes you to die, and there is Viola. Although Jason said that the old lady went out for recuperation, I don't believe that a foolish person would suddenly get smart. Perhaps she was behind all of this."
"Probably not."
Nicole thought of Mrs. Don. She was old, and she might not bother to get Nicole in trouble after she survived the calamity and got secretly hurt by her favorite Viola.
But if the Don family wasn't behind this, who would it be?
Unable to figure it out, Nicole got absent-minded.
Out of a sudden, Tim leaned forward, his face almost touching the tip of her nose.
