Chapter 2578
"Anyway, they really do look a lot like you and Mr. Johnston.” "Alright, you're starting to creep the kids out," June teased her friends after she was done with her makeup and changing.
Soon, Lulu joined them and asked Nicole, "Should we go downstairs now?"
"I think so. The guests are waiting," Nicole replied, preparing to lead everyone downstairs.
The group left the room in high spirits. But then, out of the blue, a woman suddenly barreled toward them and lunged at Lana.
Nicole instinctively pulled Lana back a couple of steps to evade the oncoming woman. However, before she had time to react, the woman had already pounced on Nolan. Nicole rushed over to save Nolan, but it was too late.
"Mommy!" Nolan cried out in panic as he was seized.
The woman then placed a knife in front of his throat.
"Nolan!" Nicole's face blanched at once, but she knew she had to remain calm and composed.
Pushing Lana to Tia, Nicole whispered, "Protect Lana. No matter what happens, don't intervene. You've got to make sure that Lana is safe."
"Miss Nicole, you..." Tia's eyes welled up, but upon sighting Nicole's resolute expression, she could only grit her teeth and give her a firm nod. "Got it. Don't worry."
Even if she herself was in danger, she would do anything to protect Lana. She knew that Nicole would never abandon Nolan in such a situation. She could not help her in any other way, so the least she could do was ensure that Nicole did not have to worry.
Taking a deep breath, Nicole looked at the person who had taken Nolan hostage, her eyes filled with a cold determination. "Raine, you've been hiding for so long just for this moment, haven't you?"
No one had expected Raine to show up. They had even thought she had fled San Joto for good.
