CHAPTER 2235

"Let's go, Sean."

Sean furrowed his brows.

"Nikki, why do you keep urging me to leave?"

‘Aren't they supposed to stay and watch Jim get arrested by the cops so Nikki could be proven

innocent? Why does Nikki keep on wanting to leave?' Sean thought.

"She's afraid of being arrested, that's why,"

Assistant Coleman chimed in.

'Mr.Wheeler, how can you not tell this when this woman is acting so obviously? She's the one who

injected the poison into Ms.Craig's body.Why else would she be so afraid of the cops? Why does she

keep on insisting on leaving?"

Sean squinted and unconsciously let go of the hand that held Nikki's.

He did not think that the people who worked for Jim could be good people, but...

Assistant Coleman was making sense.

If Nikki was truly innocent, why did she insist on them leaving? Why could she not wait for the cops to

arrive?

"I...."

Nikki bit her lip and was silent for a while.

Finally, unable to refrain herself, she burst into tears once more.

"That's right, I'm afraid of the cops!”

"Sean, you know that I had just suffered from sexual assault, and I don't want to go to the police

station.What if they ask about the rape? I can't stand it anymore! I don't want to think of the time my

innocence has been ripped from me!" Material © .

Nikki's cries, as well as her faltering voice, wrung Sean's heart tightly.He subconsciously extended his

hand and pulled her into his arms once more, guilt- ridden that he doubted his sister just because Jim

and his assistant incited him.

Nikki had been with him for many years, and he knew what kind of person Nikki is.

Moreover, Nikki had been raped when he had left to rescue Bonnie, and it was utterly wrong of him to

suspect Nikki at such a timing.

Nikki was a kind and gentle woman.

Even after the way Sean had treated her yesterday, Nikki still disguised herself to visit Bonnie at the

intensive care unit ward on his behalf.

Having that thought in mind, Sean sighed and wrapped his hands around Nikki's arm.

"Alright, Nikki ...let's go.Since there's solid evidence to prove that Jim is guilty, it doesn't change

anything whether or not we stay."

Sean looked in the direction of Bonnie's ward once more, helplessly melancholically.

'I...hope she'll be alright"

He wanted so badly to stay, but he was neither a nurse nor a doctor.

There was nothing else he could do other than create more trouble.

Hence, he grabbed Nikki and left.

Just after taking a few steps, however, they were stopped by Jim, who brought up his arm to stop them.

"Leaving now, are we? Ms.Wheeler, do you really think that me, my assistant, and also my men are

incapable of stopping both of you from leaving?"

The bodyguards dashed in from outside and surrounded Sean and Nikki, startling Sean for a moment

before he quickly reacted by pulling Nikki into his arms.

"Jim! “

"It's bad enough that you're cruel and cold-blooded with the way you treated Bonnie.Are you so

irresponsible? Are you really going to push all the blame on Nikki?"
