Nicholas took Cecilia directly into the car. Cecilia nervously grabbed his arm and said, "Mr. Ling, we don't need to check my eyes anymore. Let's go. I'm really scared."
Nicholas whispered in her ear, "Sorry, those killers might want to use this opportunity to get me. I'll ask the driver to send you back."
Nicholas urged the driver once he finished speaking, "Take Miss Xia to a safe place."
Cecilia said as she grasped his arm tightly, "Mr. Ling, let's go together."
"No, I can't leave with you. They will definitely continue to chase us. Just go."
Nicholas closed the car door and the car left quickly.
Cecilia bit her red lips. She didn't expect that Nicholas would put himself in danger in order to protect her.
"Nicholas, don't think I'll let you off the hook simply because you're like this."
Cecilia said bitterly in her heart.
"Brother Liu, can you send me to my sister’s workplace?”
Cecilia said to the driver.
"Okay, Miss Xia, where is your sister working?"
Cecilia told him the address, and the driver stopped at the door of the restaurant where Leana worked.
Leana received the message and quickly walked out to help Cecilia.
After thanking the driver, Cecilia followed her into the restaurant.
As soon as they walked inside the restaurant, the entire crew halted their work and gave Cecilia a respectful look.
Cecilia's aura changed drastically. She was still weak a moment ago, but now, her eyes and expression showed the sternness and fierceness of a female boss.
"Miss, when are you going to make your move?”
One of the men asked.
"Wait for my order."
Cecilia walked into the backstage of her work and sat on a chair. Her dry eyes were instantly filled with cold light.
"What kind of person is Nicholas?
"If you get close to him, you should know him well."
A man entered the room. With affection in his eyes, he stared at Cecilia. This man's name was Arthur, and was Cecilia's adopted brother. He was a few years older than Cecilia. At this moment, he slowly walked down the stairs from backstage.
"He is just a normal man, not as mysterious as the rumors say."
Cecilia said lightly.
"Oh?
I heard that his father dispatched many hidden guards to protect him. Have you fought with them?"
Arthur instantly underestimated Nicholas's abilities.
"I'm just a blind woman. I have no chance to fight with his secret guards."
Cecilia replied coldly.
"Cecilia, thank you for your hard work. You must have suffered a lot by lurking around by this man's side. We'll ask our adopted father for a vacation after this mission is completed. Where do you want to go? I'll go wherever you want to go.”
The man took a step closer and reached out to take Cecilia's small hand in his.
Cecilia quietly dodged and said in a cold voice, "I don't want to go anywhere."
The man smiled as he gazed at his empty hand. "Cecilia, you're still so distant. You should be able to feel my affection for you. I know that you don't want to have a boyfriend now. I'm willing to wait..." "Arthur, we're now partners. Please understand."
Cecilia coldly reminded him.
"Cecilia, don't you feel lonely?
"Since we were children, we have been taught to have no feelings. Our blood is cold, we can only keep warm by hugging each other. Except for me, no man will truly love and care for you..." Arthur said calmly.
Cecilia was reminded of the handsome face and sweet voice when she heard his words.
That's right. Since she was a child, she had been informed that the only reason she was alive was to carry out missions. She didn't have to care about anything, nor did she have to feel sorry for him or pity him. But why was her heart beating so fast?
Was all the kindness and care that Nicholas had shown her fake?
"Thank you for your concern, but I don't need your warmth. I don't feel cold."
Cecilia didn't buy it.
"Do you have someone you like?
Who is it?"
Arthur's expression changed as he asked suspiciously.
"I don’t have any."
Cecilia said coldly.
Arthur didn't believe it. He suddenly said sarcastically, "Cecilia, are you in love with Nicholas?
"As far as I know, he is very handsome. You're not such a shallow person. You're not going to fall in love with him just by looking at him, are you?"
Cecilia's pretty face froze, and she scowled angrily at Arthur. "I won't fall in love with my enemy, unless I don't want to live anymore."
