Deep Affection: Honey, Come Back To Me

Chapter 207 Find Something

The nurse was fixing her IV drip when Nina slowly opened her eyes. The nurse turned to her and smiled. She asked, "How are you feeling, Mrs. Shi?"

"Better. Thank you," Nina answered. She anchored her arms on the bed and propped herself up. "I need to go to the bathroom."

"Sure. Let me help you up. Slow down. You haven't regained your full strength yet. Take it easy," she reminded. The nurse looked young, possibly new on the job. She had this aura about her that reflected her desire to help and serve. Nina felt a pang of guilt in her chest for what she was planning to do.

"I'm all right. I can do it." Although Nina had not eaten anything all day, she was able to replenish her blood sugar with the lollipop.

As Nina made her way to the bathroom, the nurse followed after her and carried her infusion for her.

She entered the bathroom, pursed her lips, and asked the young nurse shyly, "Can you please turn around?"

"All right. No problem." The nurse spoke with a smile.

As the nurse turned around, Nina's shy face changed. She stared right at the side of the nurse's neck. A powerful but restrained pinch on the right spot should render her unconscious.

As the taxi sped away, Nina found herself in front of No. 2 Lanting Road. Beyond the iron gate, there was complete darkness.

She approached the gate and shoved it forward. With a soft moan of the hinges, the gate swung open.

Nina was a little surprised to find the gate unlocked. When she was about to step in, someone suddenly stopped her.

"Nina?" Albert stepped out of the darkness, frowning. Surprise was written on his face. A malicious look flashed across his eyes and disappeared in a heartbeat.

The nearest road light to them was so dim that she could not really see Albert's face clearly. But she recognized his voice. "Albert, what are you doing here?" she asked.

"I should be the one asking you that question," Albert retorted. Before Nina could reply, he continued, "I live around here. No. 4 Lanting Road. Over there."

"Really? I just came here looking for someone." Nina did not speak frankly.

Albert probably sensed it, so he changed the subject.

Meanwhile, the taxi driver saw the woman he just dropped off through his rearview mirror. She was now speaking to a man, and the driver saw Albert's face.
