Chapter 546 I Want Your Life

When Nicole returned to the ward, she saw the doctor standing in front of the window, holding a toy in
her hand. She did not know what she was thinking.

That was a child's toy.

Nicole remained silent. She knew that the doctor might have many stories, but she didn't have time to
listen to them now.

"I want to leave."

Nicole said lightly.

Without looking backing, the doctor whispered, "You can leave as long as you feel better."

"I know my physical condition. Thank you for your concern, but I can't stay here anymore. I want to
leave."

Nicole knew that without the permission of the doctor, she couldn't leave. Ordinary and depressed as
the hospital looked, Nicole found that there were surveillance cameras everywhere.

If there were a few patients in a hospital, why would there be so many surveillance cameras? Or was
there something here that she didn't know?

If it was in the past, Nicole might have the mood to explore, but now she couldn't wait to leave and find
Samuel and Tim's whereabouts.

City A was so weird.

The doctor turned around slowly and looked straight at Nicole. "You can leave," she whispered. "That
little girl stays."



"No."

"There's no room for discussion. If this little girl is here, you might come back. But if she leaves with
you, you won't. I'll give you three days. If you don't show up by then, I'll kill her!"

"What did you say? How could you do this?"

Nicole was instantly enraged.

The doctor said unhurriedly, "I told you that I'm not a good doctor. I can save lives and take lives. But
for me, that little girl would have died a long time ago. Now that I save her life, I can take it away. Your
body can last for three days. If you don't come back on time, you will be exhausted. And there is no
guarantee that I could save you at that time. Since you're not here, the life of the little girl won't matter
anymore, right?"

Nicole clenched her hands, seething with anger and saying, "Is that how you see life?"

"I don't know about others, but I want your life. With me, you can't die."

"Why? I didn't make any deal with you or owe you anything."

"You promised me something. Don't you remember? Before it is fulfilled, your life is mine."

Only then did Nicole recall what the doctor had said before agreeing to see the little girl.

Not knowing why the doctor insisted on seeing Lucas, she suddenly found it strange, so much so that
she wanted to go back on her word.

"If you change your mind, I will kill that little girl immediately. Anyway, her life is meaningless to me."

The doctor said as she walked out.



"Wait!"

Seeing that she didn't seem to be joking at all, Nicole couldn't help but panic.

She could not let anything happen to Karina. Although that child got something on her mind, she could
not leave her alone.

"I promise I'll come back and take her away after three days."

"No, you have to bring the person I want in three days before you take the little girl away."

Nicole hated to agree, but knew that she had no choice.

Why did she mess with such a woman?

Nicole was annoyed.

However, when she recalled the situation of Karina at that time, Karina being safe and sound now
offered comfort to her.

"Okay. Now please return my things."

"You don't need them. I'll give you an injection later, which can help you hold out for three days."

The doctor said and walked out.

Nicole did not know what kind of injection the doctor would give her. Since she was in poor shape, she
couldn't care less. It was fine as long as she had enough time to find Samuel and Tim.

Thinking of this, she calmed down.

When a person faced death, she wasn't that scary, but was too reluctant to let go of many things.



She was reluctant to part with her children, Samuel, her good friends, and her parents.

Now she could only buy more time to find the person who meant a lot to her.

Nicole looked at the sky outside. It was gloomy, as if there was going to be a heavy rain.

Her door was opened.

Nicole did not turn around. She thought that the doctor had returned, yet she saw a small shadow in
front of her.

She took a glance at it and found that it was Karina.

Nicole smiled, "What's wrong?"

"Are you leaving?"

Karina wrote it down on a piece of paper.

Nicole seemed to see a trace of despair in her eyes.

She felt sorry for her and said, "I'm only away for three days. I'll take you away when I return. Don't
worry. I'll bring you to see Hedy in the Seapolis City."

Karina's eyes flashed for a moment, then she continued to write, "Are you going to the Emperor Hotel?"

"Yes."

"If you do me a favor, I will tell you the whereabouts of Tim and Samuel."

Nicole frowned slightly at Karina's words.

"Do you have a grudge against the Emperor Hotel?"



She saw hatred in Karina's eyes.

Karina did not try to conceal anything. She wrote, "Yes, a life-and-death grudge. I want Fiona to taste
death."

Her eyes flickered with rage and hatred.

Nicole was sure that Karina was thrown into the river by Fiona.

But what was the grudge between them?

"What animosity do you have with Fiona?" asked Nicole.

Karina shook her head and wrote, "For no reason, she wants me dead."

Nicole was baffled.

No one would love or hate someone for no reason. It was very likely that Karina was a threat to Fiona's
interest. But was there a connection between Fiona and Samuel's disappearance?

When Nicole wanted to ask, Karina had already turned around and left.

She left a sentence for Nicole.

"I'll wait for you to come back and bring me to the Seapolis City."

It was a child's desire and a plea from an elder sister.

Nicole gripped the piece of paper.

When the doctor came in, Nicole's mood had already returned to normal. She just stared at the sky, not
knowing how long she could live.



Her health was getting worse and worse. The only thing she desired to do with her remaining vitality
was to have a good trip with her family of four.

This was the hope of the children, so was his.

The doctor didn't say anything. Nicole was quiet and cooperative while being injected.

"Aren't you afraid of death?"

"Yes, but there's something more terrifying than death in this world."

Nicole looked at the doctor.

The doctor frowned slightly and asked, "What is it?"

"People's hearts."

The doctor fell silent at the words.

Nicole did not say anything else. She packed up her things and turned around to leave the hospital.

There were few people on the street. When they saw Nicole coming out of the hospital, they were
shocked, as if she was some kind of monster.

Nicole ignored the gaze and walked directly towards the Emperor Hotel.

Many cars were parked in front of the hotel. They were famous cars, luxury cars, and even limited
editions.

Nicole was surprised to see that. What Lucas investigated reappeared in her mind.

How could such a remote place have so many distinguished guests?



Nicole was puzzled and walked into the Emperor Hotel.

Because of her low-key luxury dress, the attendant at the door respectfully brought her in.

When the lobby manager saw Nicole, she hurriedly greeted her.

"Lady, did you come alone?"

"Yes."

Nicole eyed the woman. She was beautiful, but had a pair of sophisticated and scheming eyes.

She disliked this woman from the bottom of her heart, but remained silent.

"I'm the lobby manager. My name is Fiona Calo. What should I address you, lady? Do you need a
room? We only have two presidential suites left. Do you want it? If you need, book it now, or there will
be no room available later."

Nicole frowned at her words.

She was Fiona?

She was the one that had a relationship with Tim?

She was the one that almost killed Karina?

Nicole looked around and wanted to ask why there were so many guests here. Was there any big
event? But she didn't ask.

Out of caution, Nicole used a fake name. She said in a low voice, "My name is Marina Finger. Give me
a well-ventilated room."



"Okay. Miss Finger, this way, please."

Fiona took Nicole to the elevator.

She accompanied Nicole all the way to the presidential suite.

In the eyes of Nicole, the decoration here was luxurious. Even in the Seapolis City, there were few
hotels like this.

What on earth attracted so many honored guests?

Nicole was confused. She changed her clothes and went out to find out the reason.

Seeing Nicole coming down, Fiona said with a smile, "Miss Finger, are you going to the Dungeon at
night?"

Dungeon?

Nicole was dumbfounded, but nodded her head quietly.

Fiona became happy at once.

"Miss Finger, a pass card is needed to the Dungeon, and it is expensive. I know that people like you
are not short of money, but it doesn't hurt to save a penny, right? I've been here for many years. If you
trust me, I'll get it for you. I guarantee it will be much cheaper than buying it yourself. But, Miss Finger,
you know that I will charge you some intermediate service fees. Don't worry. It won't exceed the money
you spend on the pass to the Dungeon. And you must be aware that not everyone who wants to enter
the Dungeon can get the card. The process of obtaining it is very rigorous."

Hearing that, Nicole was stunned for a moment.

Pass card?



Dungeon?

Could it be that this was the secret of the secluded countryside?

Just as Nicole was about to say something, a person walked in from outside. When she saw this
person, she was stupefied and then subconsciously turned around.

It was him!
