CHAPTER 111"I don't know if it's just my feelings or not, but it seems like... you have a problem with me. Isn't that right, Noel?"Noel looked away, he gave a short snort. For the first time Noel couldn't help himself and showed his true colors."If you have something to say, you can say it now." Alicia urged Noel. The woman couldn't fight her hunch any longer, she felt that Noel really hated her. "Are you angry with me?""Yes! Of course I am! I'm angry and annoyed with you!"Noel's raised voice took Nicholas by surprise. Nicholas immediately checked the change in expression on his lover's face for discomfort. Alicia must have been shocked by Noel's emotional attitude that day."Wait, wait. You don't have to yell like that, Noel," Nicholas whispered, not wanting things to get any messier.But Noel didn't want to stop. He pointed at Alicia, who was no taller than he was, and continued, "This whole mess was caused by Alicia, Nic. Why did you get shot, get caught up in a horrible seria

CHAPTER 113Nicholas winced in pain as he walked to show Alicia her room. There was one empty room directly opposite Nicholas' room in the house. Emma and Alan, meanwhile, had different rooms in another corner. Nicholas opened the door to the room, turned on the light and let Alicia in."This is the guest room, you can stay here comfortably because my mom cleans it all the time." Nicholas smoothed the pillows on the bed. He shrugged his shoulders. "Well, she's like a cleaning robot who likes to clean everything."Alicia chuckled. She girded her loins and looked around. "I'll be comfortable here," she said, and sat on the edge of the bed. Nicholas followed her to sit beside her. Alicia noticed the change in expression on Nicholas' face and asked, "By the way, are you going to tell Emma about this case?""Emma already knows about everything. I mean, she doesn't know everything, but she definitely knows when I'm having a hard time," Nicholas explained. Nicholas sighed and took Alicia's h

CHAPTER 115Everyone went to the hospital to check on Brittany. Nicholas also called Noel so that he could catch up.Brittany and Kevin were treated in the emergency room as soon as they arrived at the hospital. Brittany's bleeding meant that she had to be admitted to the ICU as soon as possible. Meanwhile, Kevin only suffered a slight injury and a sprained leg.Kevin didn't talk even though Nicholas pressed him. Kevin was covering something up and this frustrated Nicholas."Sorry I'm late," Noel said, once he arrived at the hospital. He looked around. The atmosphere looked bad. Their faces didn't look happy at all. So Noel chimed in again, "Is Brittany okay? I was thinking of calling Paul, but I think it would be better to check on her first.""She's in the ICU, she's bleeding on her head."Noel nodded in agreement. "Then who is this guy?"The question was addressed to NIcholas after Noel saw Kevin. The three of them exchanged glances, until Alicia opened her mouth. "He's Brittany's

CHAPTER 117As the argument between them didn't end, Kevin was allowed to go home on the condition that he would return after receiving a police summons. And to that end, during the investigation process, Kevin's passport and visa would be held to prevent him from traveling abroad or running away.Nicholas returned with Kevin's important documents in his hand. He sighed in front of Alicia and Noel, it sounded heavy."Today was really hard," he complained.Nicholas immediately sat down next to Alicia and straightened his leg which was still throbbing with pain from the gunshot wound in his right leg. While looking at the two people in front of him, Nicholas explained, "The important documents he has are in my hands, he won't be able to escape until he receives a warrant.""That's good," Noel said, then extended a hand. "Let me make the summons and report at the office."A nod of the head from Nicholas signaled his approval for Noel's actions. He said, "Thank you for all your help, Noel

CHAPTER 119Alicia pulled up a chair, coming closer. She looked at Brittany's face, which looked like it was in pain with a Band-Aid covering her head. Now and then Brittany blinked her eyes, so she could see further than the view she was now seeing."Kevin and I... fought."Brittany's soft voice drew Alicia's attention. Alicia grasped her best friend's hand, she looked at her intensely and her ears listened carefully."But that incident... I saw Kevin having an affair, Alicia," Brittany continued. The girl swallowed, struggling to form the words to tell her story. "I wanted to take his cell phone, but he wouldn't let me do it. And all of a sudden, Kevin slammed the steering wheel to the side of the road.""I saw that you were badly hurt, Britt. But Kevin...""Is he okay?"Alicia nodded her head, then continued to explain. "Did Kevin drive the car into the tree?" Brittany nodded her head in agreement. "Kevin... accidentally hit the tree and aimed it at your seat, didn't he?"Again, Br
