President’s Sweet Wife

After all, everyone knew that this road only led to the hotel and there were very few pedestrians at this hour.

The kidnapper was too stupid if he didn't have a specific target.

Few people would pass by here.

And it was snowing and so cold. It was unlikely that someone would be so stupid.

So it was likely that the kidnapper knew that someone would pass by at this hour.

Who was it? Laura, of course.

The kidnapper targeted her. He figured out when she would get off work and waited in ambush for her to pass by and drag her away.

With this in mind, Stephen took out his phone, opened the torch app, and walked into the alley.

After walking a few steps, he found some tire marks.

Three parallel marks. They were still very clear because there was an extra thin layer of snow on the ground.

It was most likely created by something like a tricycle.

It explained why Nicole rushed in within twenty seconds but didn't see anyone.

Because the kidnapper carried Laura to the tricycle and left quickly, which confirmed his previous thoughts.

The kidnapper knew Laura and even prepared the tricycle here in advance in order to take her away.

Why did he choose this alley instead of the road?

After all, there were very few people in both places.

He looked up. Because it was an old town, there were very few surveillance cameras there.

There were no cameras in this alley, but there were some on the road to monitor cars.

The kidnapper chose this place to avoid the cameras.

He was smart!

With this in mind, Stephen asked coldly, "Did you call the police?"

Nicole nodded.

Stephen thought for a moment and said, "We have to inform the director. There's no use for us to stay here. The kidnapper is long gone. Let's wait for the police."

Nicole nodded immediately, but she was a little worried.

"What about Laura?"

Stephen frowned and looked deeper into the alley.

After a long time, he said, "The kidnapper doesn't want to ask for money or do anything to her. Since he deliberately waited for her here, he must be someone who knows her well. There is no use for us to stay here. We might as well go back. Since the kidnapper has planned this with a purpose, he will definitely contact us."

Hearing that, Nicole was reassured and nodded.

They turned around and walked away together. Maybe because she was nervous and thinking about something, or was in shock, she took a few steps and suddenly screamed and fell to the ground. Stephen was startled and immediately turned around to look at her.

He saw a large, sharp stone on the ground. Nicole probably didn't notice it and tripped over it. Her knee hit the edge of the stone and bled. Stephen's countenance changed instantly.

He immediately squatted down, helped her up from the ground, and asked, "Are you okay?"

Nicole was a little pale and her forehead was sweating from the pain.

But she gritted her teeth and said, "I'm fine."

Stephen looked up at her face and knew that she was holding back the pain.

Because it was winter, she was wearing thick leggings. He couldn't see her wound and it was not convenient to treat it here. Stephen could only take his scarf off and simply bandage her leg before saying, "Hold on. I'll get you to the hospital right away." Nicole immediately shook her head.

"Don't bother. I'm fine. We don't need to go to the hospital. Let's look for Laura first..."

"We're going!"

Stephen suddenly became serious.

Nicole had never seen him like this before and was instantly shocked.

Before she could react, he suddenly turned his back to her and crouched down.

In a low voice, Stephen said, "Come up."

Nicole froze for a moment before she realized he was going to carry her on his back.

She blushed and waved her hands in panic.

"Stephen, I can walk..."

"Cut the crap!"

Stephen was actually helpless. It was so late and this place was out of the way. They couldn't even get a cab.

The wound on her leg looked serious. It would get worse if they didn't rush to the hospital and there might be a big scar.

Girls all wanted to be beautiful. How could she wear dresses in the summer if she had a scar on such a beautiful, long leg? Stephen had always been a gentleman and understood the ladies. He knew the importance of being beautiful to a girl.

Therefore, he never felt that a small wound was a trivial matter.

He insisted, so Nicole bit her lip and dared not refuse anymore.

She hesitated for a moment and carefully stepped forward and jumped onto his broad back.

Stephen felt it and straightened up.

Nicole was slim and Stephen hardly felt her.

But she couldn't help blushing, curling up, and not even daring to make a sound. Her body was stiff and she was nervous to the core.

Stephen didn't notice it. He just felt her body was a little stiff. He thought she was in pain.

So he reassured her, "Does it hurt? Hold on. There's a hospital in front of us and you'll feel better in no time."

It was isolated, but there was indeed a small hospital there.

Usually, the crew member would go there if they caught a cold and didn't want to travel all the way to a big hospital. Anyway, a minor cold could be treated anywhere else.

Nicole said, "Okay."

She heard Stephen stomping on the snow. She shyly whispered, "Stephen, sorry for getting you in trouble." Stephen smiled.

"Not at all. I'll help you even if you're a stranger, not to mention that you're Laura's assistant."

Besides, who would leave a girl with an injured leg alone in the middle of the night?

Nicole didn't think so. She just thought Stephen was a distinguished and famous actor.
