Chapter 2297
Hendrix had absolute faith in Nicholas's words. Since he suspected that the Xia sisters had ulterior motives, he naturally had to be on his guard. "Mr. Nicholas, what should we do next?"
Nicholas's handsome face was gloomy. To be honest, he didn't appreciate being deceived and played for a fool.
If the two sisters of the Xia family had really taken advantage of his kindness, he would drive them out mercilessly.
"Let's beat them at their own game." Nicholas thought for two seconds and said, "If they are really killers, we have to find out who is behind them." "You're right. They lied to us. We can't just let them go." Hendrix was enraged as well.
"A lot of people have tried honey-traps on me before, but this time I almost fell for it." Nicholas laughed at himself.
"They knew that you were kind and righteous, so they pretended to be pitiful and seduced you." Hendrix also sneered.
"It's a good thing if she's not blind," Nicholas murmured.
"You're still concerned about that blind girl. Her eyes are attractive. If she isn't blind, she is quite gorgeous. But, Mr. Nicholas, I must remind you that when you reach a high position, you will be surrounded by a variety of women who want to marry you. In my opinion, the little girl of the Wayne Family is very suitable for you." Hendrix was abruptly reminded of the Wayne Family's youngest daughter. She was an excellent match for Nicholas. The two families had known one other for a long time. They would be unstoppable if they joined hands.
"Don't talk nonsense. I've always treated Mr. Wayne's daughter as a younger sister. If I really wanted to do that, I would have done it a long time ago." Nicholas didn't have such an idea. Since he was a child, he had regarded her like a sister, and he only had the heart of an older brother.
"Alright, even if the Wayne Family isn't good enough, there are still the Mu and William family. In short, you have a lot of options when it comes to excellent women." Hendrix still hoped that Nicholas could find a woman suitable for him.
"Did I say that I want to get married?" Nicholas was a little annoyed by his nagging.
"But I'm scared you'll fall head over heels in love with Cecilia. The more beautiful a woman is, the more toxic she will be. Although I feel that you are accustomed to nasty women, you are also a normal man. What if Cecilia really tries her best to seduce you? Can you still sit still?" Hendrix was very worried.
Nicholas cried out in pain, "All right, enough with the nagging. My wound is hurting."
Hendrix rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'm not your mom. What makes you think I'm nagging? I'm concerned about you..."
"Why don't you start by taking care of yourself? Aren't you also single?" Nicholas couldn't stop himself from making fun of him.
Hendrix was speechless. How did a single dog offend him? Why did they say that to him?
"How about my cousin... Her breasts are large, and she lacks intelligence. She's the ideal partner for you," Hendrix said, gnashing his teeth.
Nicholas raised his eyebrows. "Are you asking me to harm your cousin?"
"Harm her?" Hendrix didn't think so. "My cousin wants you to hurt her. She followed you abroad because she knew you were here."
"No, for your sake, I will never hurt her," Nicholas said seriously.
"I can see now that you only like women who aren't on the right path. Just look at Cecilia," Hendrix said coldly.
Nicholas looked speechless. "Who said I fell in love with her?"
"You've been giving her care and warmth these days. I don't believe that you're not tempted."
Nicholas's expression froze. Had he behaved so obviously?
"Alright, stop chatting. When we get back, act according to the circumstances." Nicholas instructed in a low voice.
When Cecilia returned to the restaurant, Arthur immediately came over and asked, "Did you go to save Nicholas?"
"I'm just putting his abilities to the test. What's the matter? Is it necessary for me to explain everything to you?" Cecilia said coldly, not taking Arthur seriously at all.
"Cecilia, I'm worried about you. If Nicholas finds out who you are, he'll arrest you and accuse you. By that time..."
"You don't have to worry. I will be careful." After saying that, Cecilia turned to Leana and said, "Take me home."
Leana didn't dare to be careless. She quickly took a cab and sent Cecilia back to the residence. Cecilia continued to explain, "Nicholas is injured. Send me there to express my concern."
Leana grabbed her hand in hers and brought her to the main hall, where Nicholas resided.
At this moment, Nicholas had just returned and his arm had been bandaged.
"Nicholas, I've just finished roasting
some fresh bread. You can take a bite." Rebecca suddenly appeared
with the bread she had just made t
As soon as she came in and saw the two sisters of the Xia family, she turned her pretty face and snorted. "What are you doing here?
Nicholas came out of the bedroom and saw the Xia sisters. He said, "Miss Xia, are you okay? Did they scare you?"
Cecilia instantly shook her head and softly said, "I'm perfectly well. Mr. Ling, thank you for saving my life. I shall never forget your kindness."
"It was all because of me that you were terrified." I'm afraid to accept your generosity." Nicholas smiled slightly and appeared to be normal, but his eyes were clouded with doubt.
"You can have a mouthful of it, Nicholas." I spent the entire morning baking it." Rebecca walked over and raised the plate in her hand. "Thank you, Rebecca." Nicholas took a bite of bread and praised, "It smells so good. It's delicious, but don't make it again next time." "Nicholas, do you find it tasty?" Rebecca's eyes were full of happiness.
Nicholas couldn't take it anymore, because it was excessively sweet to the point that it was sweet and sticky.
"It's alright. Send the rest to your cousin's room. He must like it." Nicholas made the decision to give Hendrix all of the wonderful things. "Well, I'll give it to him as compensation." Rebecca happily left.
It was obvious that the two sisters of the Xia family had been ignored, especially Cecilia. When she saw Nicholas talking to Rebecca gently a moment ago, her tone and

she was very upset.
Nicholas was incredibly nice and polite to ladies. It's no surprise he was pursued by so many people.
Hmph, brute scumbag.
"Mr. Ling, I'm truly grateful to you for protecting my sister. We don't have a lot to offer you. Allow me to prepare dinner for you tonight. My cooking skills aren't bad," Leana hurriedly said.
"There's no need for it. Leave it to the servants to do the task. Go back and rest if you have nothing else to do." Nicholas then turned around and returned to his room.
The Xia sisters returned to their residence.
They didn't communicate with each other during the whole process. They only talked about some normal things.
Cecilia's piercing eyes locked on Leana's face, making her shudder from head to toe.
"Don't you think that Nicholas is a little strange today?"
Leana scribbled on the side of the page, "What's strange about it? I think it's quite normal."
"He's too cold to me."
"Wasn't he very enthusiastic about you before?"
Cecilia's piercing eyes locked on Leana's face, making her shudder from head to toe.
"I've decided to seduce him." Cecilia wrote another sentence.
Leana was stunned and wrote down, "How are you going to seduce him?"
"I'll create an opportunity to be alone with him." Cecilia was a killer,

"Boss, are you going to sacrifice your innocence? Is it worth it?" Leana asked worriedly.
