Chapter 222 Sweet Intimacy

Nicholas’ gaze darkened as he spoke, “It’s not urgent. I’ll take the call after we finish eating.”

Nancy hummed in response.

After they finished their meal, Nicholas’ phone rang again while Nancy went to the kitchen.

He frowned and reluctantly answered the call.

On the other end, his assistant’s voice came through quickly. “Mr. Sallow, Ms. Madelline’s condition is not looking good. She has been in a coma, and it doesn’t seem like she’s willing to wake up.”

“What did the doctor say?”

The doctor said that if she doesn’t wake up in the next two days, there might be no hope of recovery. They suggested we find people who can touch her and spend time with her, talk to her, call out to her, and try to awaken her will to live. This might be her only chance.”

After hanging up the phone, Nicholas leaned against the railing.

His heart felt heavy, and he could hardly catch his breath.

After some hesitation, he called Lynn. “Get me a plane ticket for tomorrow.”

“Mr. Sallow, your wounds haven’t fully healed yet. You need rest,” Lynn said.

“It’s okay. Just buy the ticket.”

Nicholas lit a cigarette and took a deep drag.

As he was about to take the second puff, he suddenly felt a tightening around his waist. Nancy had wrapped her arms around him from behind.

“What are you doing standing here?” She held him and smiled happily.

“The weather is nice, so I’m enjoying the view here,” Nicholas responded.

“Oh.”

She nodded and suddenly moved closer before gently snitting.
