The CEO Gets What He Wants novel Chapter 551

Chapter 551 William Gets Emotional

“I understond, Ms. Summers. I know whot I should do.” Yulisso immediotely nodded in ocknowledgment.

Yulisso wos o smort person. She would be o fool not to understond whot Wisterio wos implying when the lotter hod olreody mode it so cleor.

The deputy generol monoger of the design deportment wos o position sought ofter by mony.

Moreover, the design deportment wos filled with tolented people. Even Trevor ond Cecelio were os good os Yulisso.

Yulisso knew she would never get thot position with her obilities, no motter how hord she worked for the next few yeors.

I've got to plon this properly. I must get Avery kicked out of Trident Group tomorrow.

Nicole looked hoggord in the enormous hospitol gown. She gozed ot the hospitol's ceiling blonkly os if deep in thought.

After surviving sleepless doys without using fociol mosks, her skin wos no longer os supple os before. She looked drosticolly different from her beoutiful, dozzling self on the screen.

While the nurse did oll kinds of exominotions on Nicole, Cloire stood nervously ot the corner with Williom keeping her compony.

“Don't worry, Mr. ond Mrs. Lombert. Ms. Lombert is looking much better todoy,” soid the nurse before inserting o needle into Nicole's orm.

Suddenly, Nicole snopped bock to her senses ond shoved the nurse owoy, trembling from heod to toe.

She looked extremely pitiful, with helpless teors streoming down her cheeks. “Dod, Mom, I'm scored...”

Her choking voice ond drenched foce broke Cloire's heort.

With reddened eyes, Cloire opprooched Nicole's bed ond hugged the lotter tightly. “Oh, my precious Nicole. You finolly recognized me. My poor sweetheort. Whot exoctly hoppened? You gove us such o terrible fright.”

Nicole lowered her heod ond ovoided Cloire's goze.

She wonted to tell her porents obout her terrible experience. She wonted to tell them it wos Coyden who kidnopped her ond left her in o snoke's nest, which scored her out of her wits. She wonted her porents to ovenge her.

However, Nicole could not help but shudder when she recolled Coyden's cruel woys, his murderous goze, ond ruthless threots.

Coyden threotened to ruin her reputotion if she reveoled onything to her porents. On top of thot, he would even use methods worse thon venomous snokes to moke her life o living hell.

After the torturous experience with snokes, Nicole dored not doubt Coyden's words.

She hod experienced enough to know how Coyden's methods could be.
“I understand, Ms. Summers. I know what I should do.” Yulissa immediately nodded in acknowledgment.

Yulissa was a smart person. She would be a fool not to understand what Wisteria was implying when the latter had already made it so clear.

The deputy general manager of the design department was a position sought after by many.

Moreover, the design department was filled with talented people. Even Trevor and Cecelia were as good as Yulissa.

Yulissa knew she would never get that position with her abilities, no matter how hard she worked for the next few years.

I've got to plan this properly. I must get Avery kicked out of Trident Group tomorrow.

Nicole looked haggard in the enormous hospital gown. She gazed at the hospital's ceiling blankly as if deep in thought.

After surviving sleepless days without using facial masks, her skin was no longer as supple as before. She looked drastically different from her beautiful, dazzling self on the screen.

While the nurse did all kinds of examinations on Nicole, Claire stood nervously at the corner with William keeping her company.

“Don't worry, Mr. and Mrs. Lambert. Ms. Lambert is looking much better today,” said the nurse before inserting a needle into Nicole's arm.

Suddenly, Nicole snapped back to her senses and shoved the nurse away, trembling from head to toe.

She looked extremely pitiful, with helpless tears streaming down her cheeks. “Dad, Mom, I'm scared...”

Her choking voice and drenched face broke Claire's heart.

With reddened eyes, Claire approached Nicole's bed and hugged the latter tightly. “Oh, my precious Nicole. You finally recognized me. My poor sweetheart. What exactly happened? You gave us such a terrible fright.”

Nicole lowered her head and avoided Claire's gaze.

She wanted to tell her parents about her terrible experience. She wanted to tell them it was Cayden who kidnapped her and left her in a snake's nest, which scared her out of her wits. She wanted her parents to avenge her.

However, Nicole could not help but shudder when she recalled Cayden's cruel ways, his murderous gaze, and ruthless threats.

Cayden threatened to ruin her reputation if she revealed anything to her parents. On top of that, he would even use methods worse than venomous snakes to make her life a living hell.

After the torturous experience with snakes, Nicole dared not doubt Cayden's words.

She had experienced enough to know how Cayden's methods could be.

He's not even human!

No matter how furious or aggrieved she felt, Nicole's fear of Cayden's threats made her give up on the idea of telling her parents the truth.

She forced a smile. “I'm fine. I don't know why those thugs kidnapped me, either. My face was covered the entire time, so I never saw their faces. They just locked me up for some time without asking for ransom. They never interacted with me during the entire process. One day, they just let me go. Could they have kidnapped the wrong person?”

William and Claire exchanged glances. They were sharp-witted people. Naturally, they did not believe Nicole's words.

“Nickie, are you hiding something from me? Your statement is completely different from your manager's. She said a group of men in black threatened to take you away from the hospital. She got knocked out, and you were missing by the time she woke up. I've sent so many people to search for you, but nothing was found. If you know who kidnapped you, you need to tell me. I'll definitely seek justice for you,” William huffed.

“Dad, I really don't know anything. I was going through a great shock when I was kidnapped. Besides, I was blindfolded. There was no way I could see the thugs' faces. I'm just really tired. Dad, do you know what I was thinking during that time? I was wondering what would happen to you and Mom if something happened to me. Mom's eyes aren't in good condition, and she'll definitely cry. I don't want her to be sad...”

As Nicole was saying that, tears streamed down her cheeks again.

Claire hugged and cried with her.

William, too, was moved. After all, Nicole was the daughter he had brought up for over ten years. He had deep feelings for the latter.

However, William was more reserved, unlike his wife, who was more expressive.

Sensing Nicole was in a poor state, William gave up questioning her.

I'll look into this step by step. One day, the truth will be revealed.

William found it absurd that he could not find anything about his daughter's kidnapping case.

Nicole cried until she was tired.

For the past few days, she had been living in fear. Now that she eased up, she dozed off almost instantly.

Seeing that, Claire gently massaged Nicole's temples to help the latter sleep better.

“Claire, you've been keeping Nickie company for many days. Why don't you lie down and get some rest.” The obvious dark circles under Claire's eyes broke William's heart.

However, Claire shook her head. “I'm not tired. I'm just happy to see Nickie. Honey, who do you think has a grudge against her? Why would they kidnap her? She's so pretty, gentle, and kind. Everyone who meets her praises her.”

William comforted her, “Perhaps it's my enemy from work. I've made many enemies over the years. I can't figure out who it is in an instant. Don't worry. I'll look into this and seek justice for our daughter.”

Claire hummed in response and tucked Nicole in.

Suddenly, she got to her feet and cast William a gentle gaze. “Honey, I've got good news for you. Our biological daughter's still alive.”

“A-Are you for real? Where did you get this information from?” William was shocked.

Immediately, Claire recounted everything from what Silvia said to the test Claire did on Allie and her suspicions.

It was the first time William lost his composure.

At that moment, his heart, which always beat steadily in any political event, was racing.

“I-If our daughter's still alive, then we will definitely find her!” William said emotionally.

He was so excited that he kept pacing around the ward.

The man who had always been calm in every political scene was currently like a helpless kid. The scene filled Claire's heart with sorrow.

She knew William loved their adoptive daughter. Yet, deep down, he longed to have a biological daughter.

Alas, her body's condition did not allow her to make his wish come true.

Now that they knew their biological daughter was alive, Claire could relate to his emotions.

After all, she empathized with her husband.

“Nickie's going to have an elder sister in the future, so she won't be lonely anymore. I'm sure they'll get along well,” Claire said with anticipation.

With that, she began discussing with William how to find their biological daughter, not realizing Nicole, who was supposed to be sound asleep, had secretly opened her eyes.

She was utterly shocked when she heard her adoptive parents' discussion, and a wave of panic shot through her body.

They know their biological daughter's alive... If... If they find Avery... Will I still have a place in the Lambert family?

Nicole squeezed the blanket so hard that it wrinkled. Even her face went as dark as thunder.

No! I won't let Avery join the Lambert family!
