Chapter 2264 Finding a Needle in a Haystack

Nicole shook hands with the man gently and smiled. He had an accent and spoke eloquently.However, he did not seem like a native English speaker.

‘You're welcome."

"Ms. Stanton, I heard that your friend is still there. To thank you for your help, we'll help you rescue your friend while we capture Sebastian and destroy the laboratory. What's his name?”

Nicole lowered her eyes slightly, pursed her lips, and was silent for a few seconds.

"Jeff Lieberman. He's a disabled person and has limited mobility, so please make sure he's safe.”

"Okay."

The man agreed and glanced at Luca with some scrutiny.

"Ms. Stanton, since you brought your own bodyguard, I hope you can protect yourself later.”

"Mr. Upton, you don't have to care about me. I just want to find my friend."

Connor nodded.

Leighton came out and patted Connor on the shoulder.

"Shall we start?"

"Okay. I'll leave this to you. Ms. Stanton, since you've been here before, why don’t you come in and tell US more about it?”

"Okay."

Nicole nodded.She would try her best to help since she was already there.

Nicole followed them inside and took a look. The banquet hall in the front was very large and luxurious for events.

The area upstairs was smaller and more refined to cater for the upper class.

When Nicole was here before, she was busy exchanging pleasantries with the guests and did not observe the place carefully.

"Where's the elevator that Ms. Stanton mentioned earlier?" Connor asked.

Nicole walked there according to what she remembered.However, there was no sign of an elevator anywhere.

After walking back and forth a few times, Nicole's face paled slightly.

"It can't be an illusion, right?”

Connor also noticed that something was off. "Ms. Stanton, are you sure you remember it correctly? Is it somewhere else?”

Nicole shook her head.

"No, it must be here.”

She remembered that she got out of the elevator from the side exit of the banquet hall.

However, it was merely a wall in front of her.

Leighton brought some people over, glanced at Nicole, and shook his head at Connor.

"We can't find any elevator elsewhere."

Nicole paused. "Shall we go upstairs?"

The cruise was very stable.

They needed to find the elevator before they arrived at the coordinates so that they could find the entrance to the laboratory.

It did not take much time, but Nicole just did not expect it to be so troublesome.

There were stairs on the side, so they walked upstairs.

Nicole looked at the familiar scene. Some of the decorations that had been specially arranged before were removed, but overall,the place was still luxurious.

She stood at the door of the room where she stayed and walked in the direction she remembered.

The place where the elevator used to be was a wall.

Nicole touched the wall, but there was no switch or button for the elevator.She was really shocked.

Luca stepped forward and protected her from behind.

"Miss, are you sure it's here?” Nicole nodded.

How could she remember wrongly?

Before she left, she remembered watching the man in the wheelchair waiting for the elevator.

They got onto the elevator together. Although they did not say a word during the process, they were both in deep thought.

Luca paused, reached out, and knocked on the wall.

It was solid and was not just a divider.
