Chapter 201

Nicole did not turn back, but her voice eased somewhat.

"When we reach the ground floor, keep your mouth shut like now." Zeke nodded sullenly.

He had this issue where he would talk nonstop when excited or nervous.

The two went downstairs.

Little did they know that Edwin, who walked out of his room earlier, had listened to the conversation just as they left and came to Harvey's room.

"Harvey, guess what I just heard the hotel manager say to Nicole." Harvey's face remained the same as he said, "What did they say?" Edwin looked at Harvey.

The latter was as calm as he was, as if nothing could ever affect him." It seems like Nicole is wanted by the police," said Edwin.

Hearing this, Harvey, who was wiping his hair, paused as he let out a calm smile at Edwin.

"Edwin, wait for me outside." He then turned around to change as if he had not heard anything.

Looking at Harvey's rather impassive eyes, Edwin smiled.

"Harvey, you don't seem to be in a hurry after hearing this." Harvey gently raised his gaze as he looked at the bright sky outside the window.

"The one that shouldn't be panicking is me." He thought, 'It's still too early to show up now.

I need to wait until the most opportune time.

Only the moment she's cornered will my action have the most effect.' Ever since he was a child, patience was his virtue.

Edwin looked at Harvey and did not say much else.

He simply just nodded.

"I might not be able to wait for you, Harvey." He straightened his tie as he waved at the latter.

"I'm quite anxious."

One can imagine how helpless a girl like Nicole, who was called by the police while being in a foreign land, would be.

Since they were schoolmates, Edwin felt he should help if he could.

Edwin quickly walked out.

When Harvey heard the door closing, he slowly clenched his fingers.

His face soon turned expressionless as he almost crushed the remote control in his hand.

'I cannot let Edwin be one step ahead of me,' he thought.

Tossing the towel aside, he put on his suit, took his car keys, and left the room.

Nicole had already come downstairs, and she looked at the group of officers and a few other familiar faces before her, her ice-cold face impassive.

When Yellowhead saw Nicole walking out, a menacing smile appeared on his face as he said to the officers, "it's her, good sir.

This wench beat the five of us up.

Arrest her, quick!"

The police officer looked at Nicole with surprise, yet as Yellowhead yelled, he coughed and said to Nicole, "Miss, you are alleged of battery, Please come with us." Zeka then said to the officer. "Sir, this person provoked us first.

They were the ones who struck first.

How can you arrest her just like that?"

The officers could not be bothered by that.

Yellowhead's backer was the biggest crime lord in the area that their chief dared not dare to offend, so he immediately dispatched them to arrest Nicole

With that in mind, the officer said to Zeke, "This is just your side of the story.

You sound like her accomplice, so come with us now.

Or you'll face the consequences."

Zeke wanted to say something else, but Nicole held her hand out to stop him as she said to the officer.

"Lead the way." She raised her chin slightly.

The disdain in her eyes was almost overflowing as she looked at the officer.

The officer had wanted to say something else, but upon hearing Nicole cooperating just like that, he was surprised.

'What was going on? This person is just too cooperative.

I've not even started to seriously intimidate her yet.'
