Chapter 276 A surge of fear


That Bogot


Their movements were neat and uniform. Everyone was serious, not missing


any corner.


Niki stood next to Julian, her eyes fixed on their movements.


She looked alert.


The sense of inexplicable fear and tension still surged through her…


‘Why am I so nervous that I want to vomit?’


‘Why?’


‘What am I nervous about?’


‘They search for their target, but why should I be nervous?’


Despite her efforts to restrain herself, this physiological tension could not be


overcome.


Julian stood closest to her and so he noticed her movements.


“What’s the matter?”


Niki shook her head, “It’s okay. I just feel a little uncomfortable.”


“Uncomfortable?” Julian furrowed his brow.


“Why are you suddenly uncomfortable? You were okay just now.”


Niki shook her head and indicated that she didn’t know.


She managed to support her body, “It’s okay. I can bear it.”


Julian turned his head and looked carefully at Niki, wanting to observe her condition. Suddenly he noticed her somewhat pale face.


“Is it really okay?”


There was clearly something wrong with her.


Julian looked up at the bodyguards and showed an awkward expression.


Clearly, the Spears family was looking for someone and locked all the exits,


so he couldn’t come up with a way out.


He couldn’t take Niki back to rest.


If Niki had just listened to him and left first, perhaps she could have walked


away before the blockade, instead of being trapped here.


“Let me help you up to rest over there.”


Julian pulled her shoulder and wanted to help her up to step aside.


Before he could hold onto Niki, a pitch-black pistol had pointed at his


forehead.


His footsteps paused.


There was no trace of panic on his face and he was even very calm, as if the


pistol against his forehead did not exist.


“My wi…”


Before the word “wife” was fully explained, Julian suddenly thought of something.


He concealed the latter half of “wife” and corrected himself uncomfortably.


“My girlfriend is not feeling well, and I want to help her up to rest. Is it also


not allowed?”


The bodyguard was serious and unmoved, and the position of the pistol


Get Bo


remained unchanged.


Although he remained silent, his attitude was clearly evident.


Julian gnashed his teeth and looked a bit unhappy.


Niki noticed the tension and pulled over the lower hem of Julian’s suit


“Julian, I’m fine.”


“Don’t get into conflict with them because of me… We’re in Chicago, rather than Los Angeles. If something happens to us, we can’t handle it.”


“Moreover, we cannot compete with the Spears family…”


Julian wanted to say something, but seeing her firm gaze, he took back the following words.


“Are you sure it’s okay?”


Niki nodded, “Don’t worry, I can bear it.”


Since she had already said so, Julian couldn’t force her anymore. He


narrowed his eyes and gave a meaningful glance at the bodyguard.


The bodyguard ignored his gaze. He put down the pistol and proceeded with the search.


The whole person looked like a ruthless robot.


Niki endured the uncomfortable feeling while muttering inwardly.


‘Are all the bodyguards of the Spears family so unfriendly?’


He won’t even let me sit for a while, and I won’t run.’


‘It’s all a fuss.’


Niki roasted in his heart and began to wonder who they were looking for.


‘Who could have caused the Spears family to send so many people, ruin the


good reputation and offend people all over New York.’


Niki was thinking in her heart. She accidentally glanced at Tory, who wore a


white coat.


‘After I poisoned Oliver last time, Natalie invited this doctor to save the old


bastard.’


‘Since Natalie knew this doctor…’


‘Wait a minute.’


Niki seemed to have thought of something, and her face suddenly fell.


‘Are they looking for Natalie?’


As soon as this idea crowded her mind, her body began to tremble, and the


fear in her heart deepened once again.


She finally knew where the fear in her heart came from.


Julian saw her face turn completely pale, even paler than just now.


He lowered his head, “Are you sure it’s okay?”


Niki didn’t look like fine now.


Her weak appearance made Julian feel that even the wind could blow her to the ground.


Niki could no longer hear him, and her mind was filled with panic.


‘What should I do?’


‘Are they really looking for Natalie?’


“If they find out that she was locked in the changing room by me, I will be


finished.”


‘So many pistols can turn me into a sieve.’


Niki couldn’t help but tremble.


It gave her the creeps. Suddenly her left shoulder felt an icy cold thing, like a


snake.


‘Is it a pistol?’


‘They have found out I’m the murder!”


The cold face of the bodyguard was still vivid.


Her face fell and she felt guilty. She dared not turn her head to see what was


on her shoulder.


“I’m wrong…”


Niki stiffened and said in a low voice.


“I’m really wrong…”


Driven by fear, she could only repeat in a low voice, one after another.


She was afraid the bullet would shoot through her head if she admit her


mistake too late.


But after a few seconds, nothing happened, and the man didn’t query her.


Niki was a little stunned.


“Miss Linch, what’s wrong with you?”


Get Bo


A gentle female voice came from behind.


The sound interrupted her fear.


She turned her head and found Lara placed her hand on her shoulder and


looked worried.


“Miss Turner?” Niki looked surprised.


‘It isn’t the bodyguard. There is no pistol.’


Niki took a long breath.


“What’s wrong with you? Why do you look so pale?”


Tara showed concern for her, her tone full of worry.


Niki suppressed the lingering fear in her heart and shook her head. “It’s okay.


I’m just a bit uncomfortable.”


“Uncomfortable? Why are you suddenly uncomfortable?”


Tara placed her hand on Niki’s forehead to check if she had a fever.


Niki suddenly took off her hand and whispered in her ear.


“Miss Turner, do you


who…


who they are looking for?”


Tara was stunned, “I don’t know.”


“But whoever they’re looking for, it has nothing to do with us. Why did you suddenly ask this?”


Niki frowned, “Don’t you really know?”


Tara looked at her serious face and felt a bit confused..


“I really don’t know.”


Get Bogus


‘According to Niki’s face, it seems that she should know who they are looking


for.’


‘But I really don’t know.'”


Niki sighed when she saw Tara’s bewildered face.


Niki leaned down and pursed her lips. She kept looking back, afraid of being


heard.


“They are looking for Natalie.”


Niki whispered in Tara’s ear.


Tara suddenly dilated her eyes.


‘Natalie?’
