Grant walked over and slowly pushed Nicole back to the ward.
Aida waited in Nicole's ward and smiled as she saw that Nicole was already in a much better mood.
"Do you want to eat something?”
Nicole shook her head.
"Alright. I'll make some soup for you. You need to take good care of your body. Sleep for a while, and I’ll have the nurse come over to give you a shot.”
Aida went out after saying that.
Nicole took a deep breath. She refused to let Grant carry her and lay down on the bed by herself. She sighed and asked, "Big Brother, how did we get back?"
She thought that at best, she would wake up in a hospital in Southeast Asia.
It was simply unthinkable to end up back home.
Grant was stunned for a moment. He walked over, sat down, and said in a slightly lowered voice, "Our people have been following Eric and Clayton. If either of them found you, I'd be the first to find out. So, after Clayton rescued you, our people immediately brought you back in secret."
Nicole paused and sensed the meaning of his words.
“In secret?"
Grant nodded. Although he did not want to tell Nicole too much at this time, Nicole was curious about it and asked on her own accord.
Not to mention, she would be more worried.
"Yes, if we make it a big deal, Caleb’s people will find out that you're not dead, then it'll be more troublesome, and you’ll still be in danger. Fortunately, no one noticed the place where Clayton jumped with you, so after you both jumped out the window, you were secretly brought back by our people. To some people, you're already dead."
Nicole took a while to digest what Grant said and wanted to ask further questions, but Grant reached out and covered her eyes.
"Alright, let's talk again when you wake up tomorrow. Now just get some rest."
Nicole pursed her lips and shut up.
"Okay, if there's anything going on with Clayton, be sure to tell me first."
Nicole could not be assured about his condition.
Grant nodded. “Okay."
Director Sven quickly came over to put in the needle again. He looked much more tired.
