Nicole wouldn't hold back her uneasiness. Since she had found it out, she would definitely ask.
Seeing how anxious Nicole was, Audrey sighed but did not stop her.
Nicole came to the study and knocked on the door. She heard Edwin say, "Come in."
She pushed the door open and then closed it.
As soon as Edwin put down the phone, he saw Nicole walk in and immediately knew what she wanted to ask.
"Elvis ran away."
"What? How is that possible?"
Nicole frowned.
Zac and she had spent so much effort to catch Elvis, and there were police guarding him, how could he escape?
Edwin's mood was as gloomy as Nicole's.
He whispered, "I don't want to believe it either, but it's true. I think Mark must have known this when he came but he didn't say it because you were here. He was afraid that you would get anxious. I talked to Samuel. From now on, you are staying with me and you are not allowed to go out until Elvis is captured."
"No!"
Nicole refused, enraging Edwin.
"My words don't work, do they?"
"Grandfather, Elvis doesn't just want to deal with me, he wants the Green family's genetic data. Zac and Petty have injured him, so he would not let them go. I can hide here with you, but what about Petty? Petty is pregnant now. Zac's parents are also in trouble because of what happened to Samuel's grandfather. If something happens to them, how will Samuel face them when he comes back? How will he face himself? "
Edwin didn't know what Nicole was talking about, but even if she said so, Edwin didn't agree to let go.
"I don't care what you say. Anyway, I won't allow anything to happen to you."
"Grandfather! Petty is Samuel's younger sister!"
Nicole looked at Edwin anxiously.
Edwin sighed and said, "You are too soft-hearted. Stay here and I'll have Steve take them here. No matter what, you can't go out. This is the military compound. I dare Elvis to cause trouble here!"
When Nicole heard what Edwin said, she felt relieved.
"Thank you, grandfather! Ask Steve to bring Zoe and Joseph over. I should have brought them with me."
"I see."
Edwin shook his head helplessly.
Nicole grabbed his arm coquettishly.
"Grandfather, you're the best."
"Save that. I won't buy it."
Although Edwin said this, the corners of his mouth still curved up.
Edwin and Nicole came out of the study, chatting and laughing, which relieved Audrey, who was waiting outside.
Audrey was clear about her father's temper. Nicole was also stubborn, which was why she was worried that they would fall out. She didn't expect them to come out in such a harmonious way.
"Mom, I worried you."
Nicole walked in front of Audrey.
"It's fine, as long as you are fine, I'll be the same."
The family of three smiled warmly.
Under Edwin's instructions, Steve brought Zac, Petty, Zoe and Joseph over.
The house was alive.
Zoe looked at Edwin and asked, "Great-grandpa, can I play ball games at home?"
"No."
Nicole said.
However, Edwin laughed and said, "Sure, you can play anything you want. Just stay in the courtyard and don't go out, understand?"
"I see. Great-grandpa is the best."
Zoe hopped out and Steve followed.
Joseph was still quietly reading a medical book, but Nicole was a little distressed.
He hadn't recovered. Thinking of the doctor's words, Nicole was afraid that he would be exhausted. She always kept an eye on him and let him rest as much as possible.
As for Zac and Petty, they worked hard after arriving.
Nicole knew that she couldn't stop them, so she let them.
Nicole finally had a chance to be with Audrey, but because Elvis was at large, they couldn't go out, so they could only stay at home and chat.
Nicole knew what kind of person her father was from Audrey. She knew their love as well as a lot of things that she didn't know before.
As Audrey spoke, she fell asleep.
Nicole could tell that Audrey still loved her father.
It was just that holding this relationship alone was tiring.
She tucked Audrey in and crept out.
Seeing Nicole coming out, Petty brought her a bowl of chicken soup.
"Nicole, have some. You have been busy all day."
"Thank you."
Nicole took a few mouthfuls of the soup. Seeing that Petty seemed to want to speak, she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? You have a problem?"
"Nicole, will you let me out? Perhaps if I go out, Elvis will show himself. Now that he is in the dark and we are in the open, it is difficult to control him. Also, my brother is still abroad. Once Elvis contacts with his men abroad, wouldn't my brother be in danger?"
Hearing Petty's words, Nicole became worrisome.
However, she still shook her head and said, "No, before Samuel comes back, I have to ensure your safety. You did not save Elvis when he was in danger. With his character, he will not let you go. If I let you out, this will undoubtedly be a one-way trip. Do you think I can live in peace for the rest of my life with that in heart?"
