Chapter 1417

He dismissed the rest of the staff, allowing them to rest while he stayed behind to monitor Nicole's condition.

Martin had fortunately brought the Beacon with him, or else the fate that could befallen Nicole would have been unimaginable.

Sitting at Nicole's bedside, he slowly observed her. Time slowly passed and when it was close to midnight, Nicole finally woke up.

"You're awake?" When Martin saw that Nicole finally awake, he became very excited as that meant that Nicole was fine now.

She opened her eyes and saw that Martin was seated by her bed side. To her, his look of excitement seemed a little strange. She wanted to speak but she felt that her throat and mouth were severely dehydrated.

Noticing that, Martin poured her a glass of water and carefully placed a straw in there.

Nicole's thirst was sated after she had taken a huge gulp, and after she had handed the glass back to Martin, she realized it was really dark outside. "How long have I been asleep? And why are you here at this hour?"

"How do you feel?" Martin asked with concern.

"For some reason, I feel lightheaded." Nicole held her head.

"Lie down and rest up then." Martin advised.

Nicole looked at Martin and with her brows raised, she asked, " Wasn't I with you moments ago? I suddenly felt dizzy when I got up, and I don't remember anything that has happened after that.

Why am I in bed now?"

"You were poisoned earlier. Thankfully I noticed it, or else... Well, what did you eat moments ago?" Martin asked her with a similar look.

"Poisoned?!" When she heard from Martin that she was poisoned, Nicole was in utter disbelief.

"How was I poisoned?" Nicole frowned and started to ponder, unwilling to believe that she had been dosed.
