Chapter 441 To Ask For Help Or Not?

But would she go to Nick to express her doubts?

She had always been afraid of him, after all.

Veronica thought about Nick's attitude towards her recently, especially after Isabella's accident, that seemed to be a little different from what it used to be.

So, was it safe to go and ask him for help?

Veronica's eyes fell on her wristwatch and she made up her mind. She got up to look for Nick.

If she remembered it correctly, the next door was Nick's room.

Veronica knocked on the door, but there was no answer from the man inside. Didn't he hear her?

She pushed the door open for a little bit. "Mr. Cage? Mr. Cage?" Veronica walked inside, stood at the bedroom door and called for him again. "Mr. Cage?"

"Miss Parker, Mr. Cage is in the study, Secretary Tours is with him for a business." Bob came over when he heard her calling for Nick.

"Well, I just came to ask him something. If he's not here, then I'll come back later. "

"It shouldn't take long. I'll talk to Mr. Cage." Bob said, turning away.

Veronica thought that Nick would come over later, so she might as well wait here.

She walked to the sofa. When she sat down, her hand was pressed against something next to her. She noticed the suit coat that Nick had casually thrown on the sofa.

Veronica felt something hard on the inner pocket of the suit. She took the contents out of his inner pocket and when she saw that what she had taken out was a spray for asthma, her hand trembled so violently that the spray fell directly on the sofa.

She turned a little pale.

She couldn't believe Nick carries this thing with him all the time.

For what?

Veronica couldn't help laughing at herself. What else could it be for? She used this spray every time she was experiencing an asthma attack caused by his rudeness.

Just like when she ran away with the six little ones and was found by Nick, he silently took out a bottle of spray in front of her. Such dangerous situation was very unforgettable.

Veronica stabilized her mind and steadied her nerves. She stuffed the spray bottle back into the inner pocket of his suit, place the suit where she first saw it, and turned to left the room.

When Veronica returned to her room, she was so angry that she kicked the foot of the bed.

Veronica fell to the ground, gasping for breath to ease the pain. Her hands were clasped around her feet tightly and her eyes sparkled with tears. "I can't believe I went to him to ask for help! Who else can I fully trust except myself? And the most untrustworthy person in the world is Nick Cage. "

The city government was ruthlessly deep. Was there a coercion or threat against her?

Was that the reason of Nick's sudden change of attitude towards her recently?

But even if there was a slight change, there was no way to prove that Nick was not dangerous!

Nick went back to his room and did not see Veronica there. He turned away and went to the next room.

As soon as he went in, he saw Veronica sitting on the ground, clutching her feet.

"What's going on?" Nick hurried forward and grabbed her by the wrist.

Veronica looked up and Nick's black eyes trembled for a bit when he saw unshed tears on her eyes.

"It's all right. I just accidentally bumped my toe." Veronica was ready to get up, but instead, she was picked up by Nick and was placed on the edge of the bed. When she saw Nick squatting to take off her shoes, she startled. "What are you doing?"

"Don't move." Nick pulled down her socks, revealing her jade-like feet.

Before Veronica could say no, her feet was being held by Nick's palm, leaving her frozen there.

She looked at Nick in astonishment that he did such a thing.

Her big toe was red and swollen.

Veronica grimaced. She didn't mean to kick so hard.

When she thought about it carefully, wasn't the man in front of her the actual cause of this?
