I hurried forward. "Are you alright?"
When I looked down and saw the blood on her forehead and arms, I was filled with guilt. Nonetheless, she still shook her head. "I'm alright, but Cindy..."
I looked up and saw Cindy holding onto Nadia’s knife-wielding hand with both of her hands, trying to hold her back.
"Hurry up and help her!" I yelled at the thugs.
Soon enough, the police arrived as well.
Nadia and her henchmen were all taken away, and a policeman came up to me. * You have to come with us to the station as well, Mrs. Grant."
"Alright, but she's injured. Can we get her bandaged up first?"
"There are doctors back in the station, so there's no need to worry "
We followed him out of the clubhouse together.
At the police station.
We made a transcript that fully described the event.
Since our testimonies were the same, the police did not ask any further questions." That's sufficient now. Please call someone to pick you up, then you can leave."
Ultimately, Theo had to find out about this.
I sighed and called Theo. I could hear his anxiety and anger when he hung up.
He arrived at the station rather quickly.
Upon seeing me, Theo strode toward me and embraced me in his arms. "Why didn't you tell me?” "I..."
I did not know what to say to him.
Seeing that I was hesitant to say anything, Theo did not try to probe any further. As he looked at Cindy behind me, he said, 'I've informed Zedd. He should be here soon."
As soon as he said this, Zedd arrived. He walked straight to Cindy. His eyes were filled with worry. "Why didn't you tell me that things have escalated this far?”
“I'm not injured. I'll tell you more about it once we get back."
When she mentioned the word 'injured', I hurriedly turned around to look at Nicky. Although the wound on her arm was bandaged and the medicine on her forehead was changed, I was still worried." Theo, let's take Nicky to the hospital to have a look at her head first. She hit a table, and I'm afraid of it being more serious than we thought."
"Okay."
We took Nicky to do another CT scan, and since the result was similar to what the doctor had said, I felt incredibly relieved." I'm so glad you're alright."
"Don't worry about it."
"It's all my fault. You were already about to get better. You should just stay with us for now so that it's easy for me to help you with the bandages."
Nicky glanced at Theo and smiled. "There's no need. It’s better if I head home. It won’t be polite to intrude on you guys.”
"You don’t have to mind Theo. He doesn't mind as well, right?" I looked at him.
"Mm. It's fine."
After the check-up, we went back to the villa.
I took Nicky back to her room, feeling incredibly sorry the whole time. "You saved me again, Nicky. I truly don’t know how to thank you."
"We're friends. There’s no need to be too polite among friends."
"Mm!"
I smiled brightly at her. I was very content to have such a friend by my side.
