Chapter 720

Noah clenched his fists. He, too, knew how powerful Undercity was. In the end, he pursed his lips and kept quiet.

Then, he abruptly bowed to Nicole. "Miss Anderson, thank you so much for this," he solemnly stated.

With cold eyes, she silently watched him straighten up and walk away.

When Noah was gone from view, Colton chuckled and patted her on the shoulder. "You can relax now, right?"

Her face clouded over. There was not a hint of joy to be found on her face, nor relief at resolving the situation. Instead, worry was painted across her face.

The look on her face made him burst out chuckling, and he grabbed her hand. He knew what she was thinking.

"I know you are thinking about who wants to hurt you, but we can only take this one step at a time. We still have a lot to resolve back home," he said.

At the thought of what was going on back home, she was reminded of the photo of her mother killing Ella in a car accident.


Nicole clenched her fist and pondered for a moment. "I want to talk to Grandpa and explain things."

She thought of Benedict as her own grandfather, so she did not want something like this to destroy her relationship with him.

Moreover, she believed that there was no way Madeline would do something like that.

They had spent years together, so she knew what kind of person Madeline was. Madeline was a meek woman who went along with the flow. Otherwise, she would not have agreed to a divorce with William while receiving nothing.

"Okay." Colton nodded. Then, he pulled Nicole closer to him and wrapped his arms tightly around her. "No matter what happens, I will be by your side. Do not worry."

Once the Clancies' murders were sorted, Nicole no longer had a reason to stay abroad. Hence, she flew back with Colton.

As they were going home, he had someone inform Sasha of his departure. He even sent some men to protect her.

When Sasha found out about it, her entire body trembled from the might of her rage. She had used Undercity's might just to be able to get an ounce of care from Colton. In fact, she had fallen from grace just for him.

Now, not only was her power taken away, the people she trusted had been sent to prison by Adam. Everyone who followed her was wary, afraid that he would imprison them as well.

People who had spent a long time in Undercity led lives that could not hold up against investigations. The moment they were imprisoned, they would be dead.

Her face was stark white as she rested in the hospital bed. Her plan had backfired on her.

What a joke!

Sasha let out a wordless screech and swept everything off the table, sending them crashing to the ground.
