After saying this violently, he got out of bed, took some pajamas cover, and was about to leave the room.
Veronica froze on the bed and forgot to shed tears.
What did Nick Cage say? He would send the children abroad? He would separate her from the baby?
The sound of closing the door startled Veronica to climb up and chase out despite the torn coat.
“Nick!”
Veronica stopped Nick. “What are you going to do?”
“Naturally, it is to find them a good school. Rest assured, my children, they will not be treated badly.”
“Why are you so ruthless? How old are they? Are you going to leave them abroad?” Veronica trembled with anger. “Just because you want to force me to give in? What kind of a father are you?”
“Only now do you know that I am ruthless? I thought you knew all along.” Nick Cage watched her cry with no emotions, her side hand clenching her fist slightly.
“I apologize for what happened with Toby. I shouldn’t have kept it from you, but I explained, it’s over! Don’t be angry, will you?” Veronica came forward and grabbed Nick’s arm. She was so humble that she just got down on her knees and begged him!
The children would be thrown abroad without any parents! She could not dare to imagine how they would be like. He said it with such indifference.
Nick raised his hand, the back of it slid across her tearful face, the voice was neither light nor heavy, but it was cold enough to seep into the bones, forcing her, “Your answer.”
Veronica wept helplessly, tears fell again, “I promise you, I will stay by your side, no longer resist you, refuse you. Don’t send the children away.”
“Kiss me.” Nick Cage closed his black eyes and landed on her lips, her voice hoarse.
Veronica kissed his thin lips obediently and awkwardly, rubbing tears into Nick’s face.
Nick Cage sank, picked her up, and went back to his room.
They went straight into the bathroom and stripped off Veronica’s clothes.
Veronica stood there motionless, leaving Nick to undress her, dragging her under the shower, and even bathing her.
She thought Nick Cage couldn’t help it when he was in the bathroom.
As a result, he didn’t touch her until he finished blow-drying her hair. She was carried to bed by Nick and turned off the light for her to rest.
In the darkroom, Veronica’s eyes were open, and her face leaned against Nick’s chest. She was fascinated by the strong heartbeat.
Why didn’t Nick touch her?
Wasn’t that what he always wanted?
Now that he had the chance, why didn’t he do it?
Veronica could only think that her crying so much made him lose interest.
In fact, can she still escape this robbery?
She has promised to stay with him, will not refuse, will not resist, everything will be sooner or later.
Veronica was desperate to escape from his side, the result was he still standing.
It showed that no matter how hard she tries, as long as he doesn’t let go, she can only stay with Nick until he gets bored.
Veronica Parker did not understand that the person he liked should be gentle.
In the Cage family’s house, Chloe was hiding in the bathroom to answer the phone.
“Tom, could you not call me tonight? Kevin is at home!”
“Don’t you think that was exciting?” Tom asked.
Chloe certainly did not think that Tom was a furtive thrill for men and women, but a threat!
If he hadn’t helped her make a comeback earlier, there would still be phone calls in the evening!
“What’s your hurry? How long has it been?” Chloe lowered her voice and was patient.
“Of course, I’m in a hurry. What did she say when you asked for Veronica Parker?” Tom Parker asked.
“What do you want me to tell you? She disagrees! You are not her real father. Why should she help you?”
“I can’t help it, you have to come up with a way, or I’ll come to you? I know you are still very smart!”
Chloe was going to be mad at him, but she didn’t want to hear such a compliment at all. “I’ll call you if I have any news. Don’t call me again!”
Then she hung up!
There was a knock on the door, and outside was Kevin’s voice, “What took you so long?”
“Coming!”
Chloe Bowen was not only called by Tom Parker, but she was on a phone call so late at night. He wouldn’t think that she was speaking on the phone with Tom, would he?
While Kevin was in the shower, Chloe ran outside to answer the phone, “Who is it?”
“Toby Cage.”
Chloe was surprised that it was Toby Cage? Why did he call her?
“You want to see me?”
“Let’s talk in person. I’m in the hospital. I think you can find it, right? After all, it was easy for you to find my father’s hospital.”
Chloe’s heart thumped, “You. What do you mean?”
Toby didn’t answer but hung up the phone.
Chloe panicked!
Why would Toby Cage mention Eden’s hospitalization?
The guilty Chloe thought that she should go and see Toby, or she won’t sleep well all night.
She went back to her room and Kevin came out from the shower. Chloe hurriedly said, “I’m going out.”
“Still going out?”
“My friend seems to be getting divorced, crying and screaming in the bar. I’ll persuade her not to get over it at that time.”
“Come back early and call me if you need anything.”
“Good.”
Chloe made an excuse and went to Toby’s hospital by car.
When she got in, Toby was leaning against the bed, looking at the information of the company in hand.
The time on the wall was 09:30 and there was no time for the patient to have a rest.
“Toby, are you feeling any better?” Chloe didn’t forget to buy baskets of flowers and fruit to put on the table.
Toby looked at the things on the table and said, “It’s a waste of money. No, your uncle came to see you before. I didn’t come here because I wanted to take John Cage, for fear that he would annoy you. Do you blame me?”
Toby looked at her impassively, making Chloe feel uncomfortable. “What are you looking at?”
“What is your relationship with Eden Cage?”
Chloe was surprised and immediately laughed. “What’s the relationship? What kind of relationship are you talking about? That’s a strange question! ”
“Don’t want to say it, or can’t you say it?”
“Toby, I really don’t know what you’re talking about.” Chloe denied.
“I was there that night when you went to the hospital to kill Eden Cage.” Toby Cage didn’t argue with her, and the topic changed.
Chloe was frightened and remained calm. “I didn’t know you were.”
Toby let go of the video and pointed the phone horizontally at her.
Even if there was a certain distance, Chloe can still see clearly the scene in which she killed Eden by forcing a pillow on his face.
She couldn’t help looking flustered.
It never occurred to her that there were others in the ward! This person was still Toby! The nurse just saw that there was no strong evidence, but this video can definitely convict her directly!
“What do you think will happen if you give such a video to Eden, to the police, or my uncle?” Toby turned off the video and asked.
Chloe gritted her teeth. “Are you threatening me? What do you want?”
