President’s Sweet Wife

But now he carried her so gently. He was approachable.

Nicole's heart pounded again.

Stephen carried Nicole to the hospital. Fortunately, there was a doctor on duty at this hour.

The doctor learned that her leg was injured and told her to sit down. He went to get some iodine, salve, and gauze and had the nurse help her inside to take off her leggings before treating her wound.

Nicole said to Stephen, "Stephen, I'm fine. The doctor will take care of it. Just go and look for Laura."

She was not a vulnerable girl and she knew she was only slightly injured.

Laura was the one in real danger.

She didn't know how Laura was doing.

Hearing that, Stephen looked at the wound on her knee and asked the doctor. After confirming that it was indeed not serious, he nodded.

"Okay, rest here. Don't go back in a hurry. I'll call you."

After that, he remembered that Nicole didn't have his phone number.

He asked her to take out her phone and type in his number.

Nicole saw him type in his number on her phone, dial it, and get through to it before hanging up.

At once, she was both excited and nervous.

Oh my God! What was she doing?

Stephen, her crush, carried her on the back and gave her his phone number!

She must have been dreaming. How could that be true?

However, Stephen didn't know what she was thinking.

He saved his number calmly and returned the phone to her.

Then he said seriously, "Don't leave after your wound has been treated. Wait for my call. If you really want to go back to the hotel, call and have someone pick you up. It's too late. It's not safe for you to go back alone. Laura already had an accident. You must not make things worse, OK?"

Nicole nodded.

She looked obedient.

Stephen looked at her and for some reason, his mood suddenly got better.

He smiled and stroked her head.

After that, both of them froze.

Stephen quickly withdrew his hand and gave an awkward smile.

"Well, I gotta go."

Nicole nodded, "Okay, go ahead."

Then Stephen left.

After he left, Nicole covered her blushing face, squealed inwardly, and bowed her head shyly.

At the same time.

The police arrived.

Stephen met them and told them what happened. They checked the tire marks on the snow and had the same inference as Stephen.

Then they sent a group of people to search for Laura and some others to check the surveillance videos to see if there was a suspicious tricycle around this evening. Stephen thought of Nicole, who was still in the hospital, and instead of going back with them, he went to the hospital to pick up Nicole and sent her back to the hotel. Nicole didn't expect him to come back. She planned to either take a cab or call a friend to pick her up.

Unexpectedly, he came back before she had a chance to call.

He looked tall and handsome in his black trench coat. He came striding in through the snow.

When he saw her, he smiled, "Is everything okay? The police have started their investigation. I'll send you back to the hotel."

Nicole only felt warm.

She nodded, "I'm fine. Thank you."

Stephen smiled and didn't say anything.

He picked her up and walked towards the hotel.

Within ten minutes, they arrived at the hotel.

Stephen took her to her room and left.

However, Nicole couldn't sleep at all because Laura hadn't been found yet.

But it didn't stop her from feeling good because of Stephen's considerate moves today.

But it disappeared when she thought Laura could be dangerous.

Natalia's phone suddenly rang while she was sleeping.

She had left the country a few days ago and had only returned yesterday.

She was still jet-lagged today. No one would call her at 3:30 in the morning if it wasn't for an emergency.

Natalia picked up her phone drowsily and looked at it carefully. It was actually Elsa.

She frowned and had a subconscious feeling that something was wrong.

Archie was also awakened by the ringing. He rolled over, took Natalia into his arms, and asked drowsily, "Who is it?"

Natalia sobered up and replied, "Elsa. It might be an emergency. I need to take this. Go back to sleep."

With that, she took his hand away, got up, and walked outside to answer her phone in the hallway.

"Elsa, is everything OK?"

Elsa sounded very anxious over the phone.

"We got a huge problem, Natalia!"

Natalia frowned and immediately came fully awake.

In a low voice, she asked, "What happened?"

"Laura is missing! She was kidnapped on her way back to the hotel with Nicole this evening and has not been found."

Natalia shuddered!

She didn't expect it.

After a few seconds, she regained her composure and asked, "Did you call the police? What did they say?"

Elsa answered immediately, "Yes, but there's no clue."

Natalia pursed her lips and subconsciously scratched the railing.

After a long time, she lowered her voice and said, "Don't let anyone know about this except the director. Make sure to intercept any news before the media leak it out." Elsa immediately agreed.

Because this kind of thing had happened before. A celebrity was kidnapped and the kidnappers only wanted money.

But the media found out about it, reported it, and even got involved in the case.

Later, the kidnappers killed the celebrity under public pressure.

The press would not be able to help but would only make things worse.

Elsa knew about it too, so she would have done it even if Natalia hadn't told her to.
