Chapter 2284


    "Don''t go out first, Mr. Nichs. I''ll take care of it." Hendrix and his bodyguards stepped out of the car as swiftly as they could. The two bodyguards in Cecilia''s car also got out. Leana was taken aback and asked Cecilia whether she had nned this.


    Cecilia narrowed her stunning eyes and shook her head, indicating that this group of people was not put together by her.


    She sneered in her heart. Nichs appeared to be extremely popr. Everyone was looking for a way to kill him. However, he was in such a dangerous ce. Wasn''t he scared?


    Don''t tell me he hadplete faith in his ability to survive in such a situation?


    Just when Cecilia was secretly guessing, the road outside was already in a mess. Cecilia locked her gaze on the vehicle in front of her. Nichs had not yet left the car. Don''t tell her, he was scared.


    Just as Cecilia was thinking, she suddenly saw Nichs getting out of the car from the other side. He dashed over to the car she was in. Cecilia was startled when she noticed the door open. Nichs squeezed into her side and took a seat.


    "Sir... Sir, what happened? What are those people doing? They''re so scary. Is anyone going to die?" Leana pretended to be terrified right away. Cecilia had no choice but to act. Her hands were clutching the seat belt in front of her chest, and she was trembling all over. She was extremely scared.


    "Don''t be afraid. I won''t let anything happen to you." Suddenly, she heard the man''s deep and powerful voice.


    Cecilia''s entire body tingled. The man''s hot breath sprayed on her ears, which were already quite heated. She realized she couldn''t take it any longer. "Thank... thank you." Cecilia''s lips trembled as she expressed her gratitude.


    At the same time, a stonended on the ground, shattering a portion of the window. Leana screamed, and Cecilia looked at the broken pieces flying over. She was so scared that she didn''t know where to hide. She was unexpectedly stopped in her tracks by a solid body. Nichs put his arms in front of her and used his body to shield her from danger.


    Cecilia couldn''t believe it. "Shouldn''t Nichs cherish his life?"


    "He actually blocked such a big danger for her. This man... Haha, he is indeed a gentleman."


    Cecilia, on the other hand, would not let him go just because he protected her from harm.


    "Ah... what was that sound a moment ago?" Cecilia rushed out to cover her ears and anxiously asked. Her pretty face was pale, and she was terrified.


    Looking at her panicked and helpless look, Nichs whispered in her ear, "It''s okay. The window had been shattered. You''re not hurt, right?" "No." Cecilia bit her lower lip and replied.


    "That''s good." After Nichs finished speaking, he nced at the fight outside the window. His side had won.


    The people on the trucks fled.


    The two cars were destroyed, leaving only one car to drive. Nichs also called the two sisters to his car and drove straight to the city center.


    Cecilia was currently leaning against Nichs. To keep it hidden from everyone, she merely had to show dread and worry. As a result, she had been trembling the entire time. Her two slender little hands clutched her skirt hard, and her lovely eyes erged slightly. The ck flowing light in her pupils made people feel particrly distressed.


    Nichs frowned. His back was not leaning against the chair, but leaned forward slightly. He kept quiet about the stab wound on his back caused by a shard of ss. Nichs was in such much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat, despite the fact that the wound was not serious.


    Cecilia was leaning on the chair''s backrest. She was also terrified, with a paleplexion. She kept questioning if she was going to die in this ce. Hendrixforted her for a while, and then she didn''t dare to say anything.


    Cecilia was leaning against the back of the chair. From this angle, Nichs couldn''t see her expression. Her gaze froze as her nk eyes rolled back and forth.


    She just happened to catch a glimpse of Nichs'' back. His white shirt had been dyed red. Was he hurt?


    Cecilia frowned. To be honest, she despised owing others favors. A moment ago, Nichs came to protect her and blocked the ss for her. Even if she didn''t want to be protected by him, she still owed him a favor.


    "You deserve it." Cecilia cursed angrily in her heart.


    "Argh." Nichs let out a barely audible grunt, which was only heard by Cecilia, who was sitting closest to him. Cecilia''s gaze was drawn to his back, where she noticed a small

    piece of broken ss. Although the amount of blood was not much, it must have been extremely ufortable. This man was able to bear it all the way through. He clearly has the guts. When they arrived in the city, for the sake of everyone''s safety, Nichs did not ask them for their opinion. He directly asked someone to drive the car to the neighborhood where he rented. There was a vi, enclosed by towering walls, with arge interior space and shaded trees. As soon as they came in, someone came to pick them up. Content

    "My back is injured. Help me deal with it immediately." Nichs didn''t want to bear with it anymore, so he said to them directly.


    Hendrix''s expression changed dramatically, and he asked nervously, "Why didn''t you inform me sooner? I thought you weren''t hurt."


    "It''s useless to say it earlier. We didn''t have time to deal with it on the way," Nichs said lightly.


    "What about them?" Hendrix immediately asked.


    "You can make arrangements for them to stay there first. I''lle backter." Nichs nced at Cecilia, who was sitting in the car, and then left with those people.


    Leana was extremely clear about her duties. She purposefully left the car and anxiously asked Hendrix, "Sir, is this your ce? It''s very luxurious. Is this location far away from the city? My sister and I are going to look for a house in the city."Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.


    Hendrix frowned. He realized that Nichs had some feelings for that girl. Naturally, he couldn''t let them leave just like that. Nichs would undoubtedly me him if he couldn''t find them in the future. As a result, all he could do was smile and ask Leana, "Miss, what kind ofpany did you find to work here?"


    "Whatpany are you referring to?


    I''vee to seek shelter with a family member. She has a


    restaurant in town and has asked me to help her. She also suggested that if stay here for a few years, my sister will be able to find a specialist to treat her eyes. My main concern right now is my sister. She''s only in her twenties," Leana said as her eyes turned red. She appeared to be really worried.


    "Sigh, miss, look at us. Isn''t it fate that we happened to cross paths? Since you can bring your sister here to treat her eyes thousands of miles away, it means that you are a kind and righteous sister. Mr. Nichs is also a kind man. He simply told me in the car that if you can''t find a ce to live for the time being, we can borrow you to live here for a while. Is that all right? The small building over there will be enough for both of you to reside in." Hendrix was quick to express his kindness.


    Leana was overwhelmed with delight. In disbelief, she opened her eyes wide. "Sir, are you able to... are you really able to allow us to stay here temporarily? Are you sure? To be honest, I''m not sure I''ll be able to pay your rent. It''s very pricey to rent here for a month."
