Chapter 202 Nicholas’s Insecurity

What had Nancy promised that day?

She nodded in response.

She assured Nicholas that she would never ask him for money on Felix’s behalf.

Previously, Nicholas had discovered the situation himself and volunteered to handle it.

But this time, if she asked him for money, it would be a completely different situation.

Should I borrow money from him?

Nicholas was her only source of support.

For the sake of her mother, she had to borrow the money.

Nancy clenched her jaw and dialed Nicholas’s number.

The call connected almost immediately. “Nancy.”

“Nick, it must be the middle of the night over there. I’m sorry for calling so late. Did I wake you?”

“No. I haven’t slept yet.”

“Oh, that’s good. Nick, I actually called to…” askif you could lend me some money.

But before Nancy could finish her sentence, she heard a soft voice calling out, “Nicholas…”

The first time Nancy heard the voice, she thought she was imagining things.

“Nicholas…” Madelline continued to call out hazily from the bed with her eyes closed.

The second time Nancy heard the voice, she froze.

It felt as if her blood was flowing in the wrong direction. Her head felt heavy, and her knees grew weak. She didn’t know what she was doing or what she was hearing.

She stood there in a daze, holding her phone.

It was such a weak and pitiful voice. Clearly, it belonged to a woman.
