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 not come to the court, but even Colton didn’t come.
She could understand why Queenie didn’t come. After all, Daniella was definitely going to lose the lawsuit, but
Colton was very concerned about it, so it was strange that he didn’t come.
“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
Daniella shows up or not, she can’t shirk the responsibility of this false claim anyway.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicole pulled her lips and smiled forcefully. In fact, she didn’t really want Daniella to go to jail; she only wanted to
use Daniella to get to Queenie.
However, she didn’t know what Queenie did to Daniella that the latter 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 should come 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, “Daniella 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 Daniella 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 Daniella. So, Colton subconsciously felt something
was wrong and rushed over.
Unexpectedly, Daniella 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
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwhere Nicole lived had been known to reporters for a long time. Although it was a high-end community, he asked
Nicole to move into his house just in case.
“She really committed suicide?” Nicole found her voice trembling. Although she wanted to force Daniella to reveal
Queenie as the mastermind, she never wanted to push Daniella to her death.
“Nicole, calm down now. She may not have committed 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’ll come 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.
