Chapter 49

Carl knew that Nicole must’ve been lonely these days. She must’ve missed him a lot.

“I know… That’s why I fought to stay alive. The thing I’m most afraid of is you being sad.”

His voice was filled with adoration and longing.

After the near-death experience this time, Carl finally understood how important Nicole was to him.

Nicole’s nose started to burn, and she took some time to calm herself time.

“Now that you’re fine, I don’t have to worry anymore. Zane will arrange for us to meet when we are safe. There are people after me now, so I can’t really contact you all the time.”

Carl sulked for a second as Nicole did not respond to him, but he knew that Nicole was naive. She did not know that his feelings were different from before. He thought about this and lifted his spirits as he said, “I know I shouldn’t call you now as I will endanger you. But I…” He really missed her; he missed her so bad it hurts.
