Chapter 1121
Nicole, you're still in pain. Why did you lash out at Jared? What happened to the both of
you?" Martin stared at Nicole, confused and curious.
"Nothing happened. Can I just go home now?" Nicole asked Martin.
"Yeah sure, but you can't go home on your own." Martin helped her up and walked out. "I'll
take you."
"Thank you." Nicole looked at him and nodded.
"There really isn't a need for formalities." Martin shook his head." I really don't understand
the both of you."
Then, he helped Nicole into his car and drove her home.
"Give me the address of your house," Martin asked Nicole the moment he got into the car.
"You've been to my house before, haven't you?" she asked as a hint of doubt flashed across
her eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"In your current state, do you think I should send you back to Mrs. Wallace Sr.'s house? Are
you sure she won't get mad when she sees you the way you are?" Martin eyed Nicole, not
knowing what to say to her anymore.
Nicole sighed. She really did get hit on her head, or else she would not have asked him to send her to her
grandmother's residence. But after some thought, she realized that she had no other place to go home to, barring
Jared's.
But then again, she did not want to be in Jared's presence in her current state, so she said, "Send me to the hotel."
"Hotel? Do you not have anywhere else to go to?" Martin frowned and asked Nicole.
"Nope."
"Alright." Martin drove her to the hotel, disappointed.
"Do you really want to stay here?" Martin surveyed the lobby once they had arrived.
"Thank you again for sending me." Nicole opened the car door and was about to get off when she spun around and
glared at Martin, having remembered something.
"Please keep this as a secret. Even if Jared asks you where I'm staying, please do not tell him," she said.
"Is that even necessary?" Martin looked at Nicole with his brow raised.
"It very much is, so please, help me out." Nicole clenched her fists and begged him.
Then, she slammed the door shut and made her way into the hotel.
As Martin watched her disappearing into the lobby, he could not help but shake his head, before muttering,
"Women really do confuse me."
The hotel which Nicole had entered was also the one that Carl was staying at. After she had checked in, one of the
staff members brought her to a room directly across Carl's.
"Miss, this is your room."
"Alright, thanks." Nicole said, waiting for the staff to leave, after which she knocked on Carl's door.
Carl was working out in the room when he heard a knock and walked up to the door to see who was standing
outside. He wasn't expecting it to be Nicole, and so, he quickly answered the door.
"Nicole, what are you doing here?" Carl greeted her happily, but the sight of the bandage on
Nicole's head shocked him.
"What happened to your head?" he asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"It's nothing. I got myself into a minor accident and bruised my head." Nicole walked into
the room without any care in the world.
Seeing that Nicole was in good spirits, Carl was not as worried. " What would you like to
drink?"
"Water," she replied, prompting Carl to get her a glass.
"Are you working out?" Nicole caught sight of Carl's abs as she took the glass of water from
him.
"Yeah, I 've got nothing much to do, so I 've decided to work out for a bit." Carl quickly put a
shirt on.
"That's good."
"Anyway, what have you been up to these days?"
"There were some issues at my brother's company. I was having a discussion about the
solutions that we can implement with a friend of mine today," Nicole lied, in spite of the fact
that she had never done that to him, especially in regards to her personal life.
