Chapter 44
“Do you know how Monica was adopted into the Boyd family back thenicole asked Aamn
„Aaron’s expression remained as relaxed as ever in the face of her question. “I don’t, but if
Aaron didn’t know about it?
Now that she thought about it, haren had probably been awet behind the ears lid back then, so how could he have known to suspect whether there had been
She pendered the situation countless thoughts racing through her mind.
The red mole she had seen on Monica’s neck just now looked rather similar to that of the daughter of the orphanage director backthen, Trevor bson.
However, it was just a half–baked theory.
If Monica had also been from the orphanage, there was no way that Ninle wouldn’t regnize her. Moreover, if Kenneth and Heidi had really visited the nephrag before and conducted a thorough search for Nicole, ther would definitely have found her.
In the briet tew seconds that she was lost in thought, Aaron watched her expressionless face, unable to tell what she was actually feeling.
When she finally snapped back to the present, she said, “Alright. I’ll investigate it on my own.
Aaron’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he swallowed. He had been planning to say that it she begged him, he might just help her out.
However, it turned out that Nicole hadn’t planned to ask for his help at all.
The atmosphere grew tense for a few seconds, and he licked his lips. He hadn’t originally thought much about marriages of comwentence. In his eyes, there were no
stiem or actual feelings attached to such mariages
was just a combination of personal interests and mutual benefit.
However, he was now looking at Nicole with playful amusement in his eyes
After the two of them arrived at the hospital, Nicole changed into sterilized clothing before entering the intensive care unit to perform rehabilitation therapy for
Fengeth.
One’s muscles needed to be relaxed even during a coma, otherwise they would feel incredibly
ly stiff and uncomfortable when they woke up
Aam stood in the doorway, watching Nicole perform the exercises.
It wasn’t until he received a phone call from the company, informing him that they needed to hold an urgent meeting, that he snapped out of the trance he had
knowingly fallen inno
He frowned at that, as he had originally wanted to ask Nicole if she had the time for a meal together
He didn’t know it she was telepathic, but when he received the call, Nicole just so happened to look up from inside the ward.
She was very disceming and could tell at a glance that something had come up on his end
She tilted her chin, signaling that he could leave first if he had something to do. There was no need for him to wait for her.
His chest tightened inexplicably when he figured out the silent message in her eyes. How could there be a woman even more apathetic than him?
After returning her look with one of his own, he turned to leave.
The hunt was only fun if the prey took the bait of its own accord.
Not long after he left, Nicole walked out of the ward. She took off her mask to reveal her face, which looked paller than usual under the harsh hospital lights.
When she went to the bathroom to wash her hands, the mirror in the bathroom reflected her cold and expressionless face.
In truth, she had drawn out Kenneth’s recovery time on purpose so that Aaron would leave on his own once he ran out of patience.
She was doing all this simply because she still hadn’t figured out how to interact with Aaron at the moment.
It was certainly a roundabout way of doing things
After regaining her calm, she got ready to start investigating Monica.
Was the red mole on her neck really related to the orphanage director?
After she was almost traumatized by Trevor the year she turned 18 and came of age, she had hit him on the head in the heat of the moment. Trevor had suffered heavy blood loss and since disappeared from Silverwood. She didn’t know if he would make a comeback someday.
Heidi once mentioned that she had adopted Monica from the orange because she felt a special affinity to her.
The orphanage had long since disappeared, and Monica had only undergone a physical examination at Ratford Hospital when she had first been adopted. The hospital might have information on that orphanage.
Thinking this, Nicole took a tard all the way to Rafford Hospital. As she paid the fare and got out of the car, she heard a tamiliar voler.
