Chapter 205 Locked In For A Whole Day
"What?" Nina's eyes widened. Her watch was her lucky charm. It had saved her life more times than she could count. How could John order his people to take it?
"Do not touch my watch," she hissed.
Both Amy and Lena were very skilled in martial arts and were astonishingly strong. No matter how hard Nina struggled, she was still pressed on the bed and could not move like a piece of meat on a chopping block.
When Richard was about to take her watch, John suddenly ordered, "Wait!"
Tears welled up in Nina's eyes as she breathed a sigh of relief. Her watch just might be safe after all.
Unexpectedly, John continued in a cold voice, "I'll take it myself."
Seeing that John was really coming to take her watch off her wrist, Nina felt her heart start racing again. "John, let's have a talk, okay? What did I do to make you angry? Why do you treat me this way?"
However, John kept silent. He simply took her watch and stuffed it into his pocket. Then, he asked Amy and Lena to let go of her.
John raised his hand, signaling to the three to leave the room and shut the door behind them.
There were only John and Nina in the be
from saying anything. It was not a bad thing to lock her up at home like this.
After all, North Yard was their home.
After he finished the last cigarette, he flicked it to the floor and crushed it with his heel. He then turned around and walked into the next room.
At night, he slept in the room next to his and Nina's bedroom. During the day, he stayed in his study to deal with his business. He did not leave North Yard.
He went on with his life while Nina paced back and forth in the bedroom, anxious.
Looking out into the cool night, Nina frowned. She had been cooped up in the bedroom for a whole day. She had one day left to find the truth about Kristina's death and possibly prove John innocent.
She had to find a way to get out of North Yard.
She had to go to No. 4 West Forest Street.
The night wind blew over her face, sending a strange yet comfortable sense of peace.
She closed her eyes and filled her lungs to the brim with the cool evening breeze.
The moment she opened her eyes again, she had already come up with an idea.
If she could not escape North Yard, then she would have John send her out.
