The black Maybach stopped in front of the gate of North Yard. John glanced over to Nina and noticed her fingers slightly move.
John frowned at the sight. If Nina woke up at this time, both of them would definitely have a heated argument. It would be more difficult to deal with her if that were the case.
He lifted her over his shoulder and hurriedly walked inside.
Nina felt like her world was spinning when she was able to slightly open her eyes. The moment John carried her, her headache had gotten worse.
This cause her to faint again.
"Mr. and Mrs. Shi. Why are you already back?" Helen had a confused look on her face as she glanced from John to Nina who was unconscious at his shoulder. "Mr. Shi, is Mrs. Shi drunk? Or perhaps, did she offend you?"
Nina was always held in John's arms whenever they were in good terms with each other.
During instances like the one right now, however, there were only two possible reasons. It could be that Nina was drunk, or she had made John angry.
'She works for another man,'
John thought to himself.
Even if Nina was the spy that Albert had planted beside him, she was still his woman and his legal wife.
He refused to
her.
Suddenly, Richard remembered what Henry whispered to him before he left.
"After all, Nina is Mr. Shi's wife."
It was then that Richard had realized that Henry was telling him to not deliberately target Nina. After all, John harbored deep feelings for his wife.
After understanding everything, Richard followed John. The two of them got in the car and left North Yard.
Hearing the sound of the engine from outside, Nina slowly opened her eyes.
When she recalled the scene earlier where John made Richard hit her, she sat up with eyes wide and alert. She moved her head swiftly and glanced around her surroundings. As soon as she recognized where she was, her shoulders visibly relaxed.
"John, you actually let someone knock me out!" she growled. Nina was furious. She moved her neck and a flash of pain coursed through her.
Nina frowned and rubbed the back of her neck. "Richard hit me so hard."
When she realized that she was wasting time, she tried to ignore the pain and hurried towards the door.
However, she realized that she couldn't get out. She tried twisting the doorknob several times, but she couldn't open it.
The door was locked from outside.
