Chapter 126


    Chapter 126 Thugs


    Nicole did not show up to thepany today. Seeing that she was now like aplete celebrity,


    people instantly recognized her and judged her the very moment she set her feet in public.


    The night was dim, and the weather in April was not that chilly as the evening breeze blew gently. Even


    though Nicole only wore oneyer of clothing, she did not feel too cold.


    Nicole stayed at home all day and yed with Hayden for a long period of time. Initially, she still had


    control over the giarism scandal. However, she did not expect that the incident that took ce five


    years ago would pop up on the Inteter and spread like wildfire.


    That incident was something Nicole could not deny, and this could only be done by Queenie!


    As she closed her eyes, Nicole took a deep breath. When she reopened her eyes, they were clear and


    bright. Reaching out her hands, she patted her cheeks. Earlier, Hayden mentioned that he wanted to


    eat steak. She was now out to buy steaks for him.


    Nicole quickened her pace and entered the supermarket. The supermarket was huge, and the parking


    lot was located in the basement. It took Nicole about ten minutes to walk up to the supermarket’s


    entrance after she parked her car.


    After paying for her steaks, Nicole immediately carried the shopping bag and made her way toward the


    basement parking lot.


    As she stared at the parking lot, Nicole felt the atmosphere was rather gloomy, uncertain if it was


    because it was a basement parking lot. She noticed that several lights that were supposed to brighten


    up the area were broken when she walked past them.


    Sensing that the parking lot was unusually quiet, Nicole frowned. She clenched the stic bag in her


    hand tightly and paced quickly toward her car.


    As soon as Nicole arrived at the side of her car, several roguishly dressed thugs walked toward her


    from the opposite direction.


    Speechless, Nicole was frozen with fear. The saying is true. The thing that you fear most will eventually


    come find you.


    “Yo, beautiful! That’s a nice car you’ve got there,”mented a thug as he directly put his foot on


    Nicole’s car and looked at her with a sinister smile.


    Nicole was no fool. She knew these thugs were sent by Queenie. At that moment, Nicole clenched the


    bag with steaks and nced around. There were four people in total, and three of them were holding


    sticks in their hands. There was no one else in the entire basement parking lot.

    Upon realizing that, Nicole narrowed her eyes and asked calmly, “What do you guys want?”


    “What do we want?” The leader of the group of thugs suddenlyughed. He looked at Nicole and said


    with a smile, “It’s umon for us to spot such a beauty like you, so we just want to have a little


    friendly chat with you. That’s all.”


    At once, one of the men came over and whispered to the leader, “Take a look, bro. Isn’t she very simr


    to the person that went viral on the Inte recently?”


    The man, who seemed like the leader, frowned. After that, he asked with a loud voice, “Which one are


    you referring to?”


    “It’s the woman who giarized a design, got pregnant out of wedlock, and hooked up with men for


    money.” As soon as those words escaped the man’s lips, the people behind him alsoughed.


    Shortly after, the thugs jeered, “Hook up with men for money? It just so happens that we have a little


    money here. How about you apany us?”


    With the corner of her mouth curled up into a sneer, Nicole was not embarrassed by their words at all.


    Then, she raised the phone in her hand, indicating that she had dialed 911.


    “If you wish to continue apanying me here, then please do so. It’ll be just in time for the cops to


    arrive and invite you guys over to the station for a few cups of free coffee.”


    Yet, those thugs did not seem to be trembling in fear when they saw Nicole had called the police.


    Instead, theyughed even more frantically. “We just came out of there. We don’t mind following the


    cops back to the station. It’s not a big deal for us.”


    In an instant, Nicole’s facial expression took a turn. She did not expect these people standing in front of


    her could be so shameless.


    Clenching her fists, Nicole began to plot an escape route. After all, she was outnumbered. She could


    not afford to act recklessly and attack them head on.


    “Hey, you guys! Are you bullying this youngdy?” Before Nicole could make a run for it, a familiar


    voice suddenly came from behind. There was also a hint of ruffian tone in the voice.


    Out of curiosity, Nicole turned her head and saw a familiar face. However, the person had dyed his hair


    back to its standard ck inparison to thest time they met. The riffraff aura of the person


    seemed to have lessened too.


    When Mason saw that it was Nicole, he was shocked. Then, he greeted her with a smile, “Oh, it’s you,


    little beauty. What a coincidence!”
