Chapter 164 She Is Dead
Nicole couldn’t tell why she felt this way, but there was a strong sense of unease in her heart.

She shook her head, trying to shake the mess out of her mind.
But today was a bit strange—not only did Queenie note to the court, but even Colton didn’te.
She could understand why Queenie didn’te. After all, Danie was definitely going to lose the
lawsuit, but Colton was very concerned about it, so it was strange that he didn’te.
“Let’s go back,” Nicole said, suppressing the uneasiness in her heart.
Whitney smiled and put her hand on Nicole’s shoulder. “Miss Nicole, don’t think about it anymore.
Regardless if Danie shows up or not, she can’t shirk the responsibility of this false im anyway.”
Nicole pulled her lips and smiled forcefully. In fact, she didn’t really want Danie to go to jail; she only
wanted to use Danie to get to Queenie.
However, she didn’t know what Queenie did to Danie that thetter would hold her tongue, so much
so that she would rather go to prison than sell her out.
Just as Nicole and Whitney were about to drive home, her phone suddenly rang.
Nicole looked at her phone and found that it was Colton calling. She answered the phone and asked
Whitney to drive, then she went over to sit in the passenger seat.
Nicole buckled on the seat belt and said, “Hello, President Gardner.”
“Nicole, don’t go home yet. I asked Tony to bring your son to my house, and you shoulde too. You
should stay at my house for the time being.” Colton’s voice was a little deep, and there was a trace of
insistence in his voice.
Nicole frowned. There must be a reason Colton said these words so suddenly. She quickly asked, “Did
something happen?”
“Yeah,” Colton responded. After a long silence there, he uttered, “Danie is dead.”
Nicole felt her head pounding, and her whole body stiffened.
She was stunned for a long time without reacting. Then, her fingers began to turn pale while holding
the phone, and her face fell.
After a while, Nicole eased her breath. Her voice trembled as she asked, “H-How did she die?”
While she spoke, panic rose from the pit of her stomach.
“There were sleeping pills on the table. For the time being, it seems that she died from overdosing on
sleeping pills. The specifics will only be known after the autopsy,” Colton said.
The people he arranged to watch over at Danie these days said something was strange. Not only did
she not go out these days, she didn’t even see anyone. The owner of the hotel also said that he hadn’t
seen her order food for a long time.
On the day of the court session, there was no movement from Danie. So, Colton subconsciously felt
something was wrong and rushed over.
Unexpectedly, Danie was found dead in the hotel.
He suppressed all the news immediately and asked Tony to go to Nicole’s house to pick up her son.
The residence where Nicole lived had been known to reporters for a long time. Although it was a high-
endmunity, he asked Nicole to move into his house just in case.
“She reallymitted suicide?” Nicole found her voice trembling. Although she wanted to force
Danie to reveal Queenie as the mastermind, she never wanted to push Danie to her death.
“Nicole, calm down now. She may not havemitted suicide. We will not know until we get all the
results and information,” Colton said. The first thing he did was preserve all the evidence in the hotel
room.
Nicole lowered her eyes and calmed down for a while—no wonder she felt uneasy today. She pursed
her lips and replied in a low voice, “Okay, I understand. Then I will have to trouble you with this.”
“It’s nothing. I’ll send the address to your mobile phone, and you can go there directly. I’lle back to
tell you about the details in the evening,” Colton said.
Nicole nodded and hummed a response.
After hanging up the phone, Nicole leaned back in the seat, looking a little lost.
