Chapter 2039


    Thus, Jared was led to believe that those people were not from San Joto, but rather they were folks


    based in other countries, who would also like to see Nicole dead. Other than the organization that they


    had dismantled, he could not think of anybody else.


    He had not managed to discover anything about them yet, so the only thing he could do was to keep


    her safe while quietly searching for clues.


    Nicole shot Jared a nce, as she felt as though he was not taking it seriously, making her feel


    conflicted. ''Is he not concerned at all?''


    The car came to a halt when they were still in the midst of the conversation, snapping Nicole out of her


    thoughts.


    She looked outside the window and there, she saw an elegant courtyard located just outside.


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    This confused her. "What is this ce?"


    "You''ll know once we''re inside." Jared grabbed Nicole''s hand and led her out of the car.


    They ambled through a stone path into the courtyard while enjoying the fragrant scent along the way.


    Nicole observed the area that waspletely strange to her. Although she was utterly unfamiliar with


    the ce, she developed somewhat of a liking for it and felt no resistance toward it at all.


    They stopped at the front door of a mansion, which coincidentally opened from the inside. Then, a


    casually dressed young man, who seemed to be around her age, appeared before her eyes.


    "Nicole, you''re here." Martin smiled warmly.


    Even though Nicole could not remember who he was, his presence did not make her feel tense at all.


    "Hello, Martin," Nicole greeted and nodded courteously.


    "What?!" The surprise in Martin''s eyes suddenly disappeared.


    When Nicole uttered his name, he thought for a moment that Nicole had regained her memories.


    However, by looking at Nicole''s eyes, he could tell that it was not the case, and that was when he


    understood that he had overreacted.


    "Let''s talk inside." Martin stood aside, making way for Jared and Nicole so that they could enter his


    house.


    Even though Nicole did not remember Martin, the information that Jared had given her had included


    details about him. Thus, Nicole knew who he was and the reason as to why Jared had brought her


    there.


    Martin had quite a few achievements in the medical field, and he was already a medical professor at


    that time. Hence, Nicole figured that Martin had to be an excellent medical practitioner.


    With all of this in mind, Nicole guessed that Jared had probably brought her here so that Martin could


    examine her condition. However, she did not have high hopes of getting cured.


    That was not because she did not trust Martin. She had seen way too many doctors in the past five


    years, and yet, none of them could help her. Furthermore, she had a little medical knowledge to her


    name, but she could not do anything about her condition either.


    This was why Nicole felt that, even if Martin was an exceptional medical practitioner, he might not


    necessarily have a solution for her.


    But in spite of all that, Nicole still found what Jared was doing for her very heartwarming.


    After they had sat down, Martin poured them a ss of water each and sat down across from them.


    Then, he studied Nicole from head to toe. "You still look the same. How have you been for the past five


    years?"


    "Let''s begin," Nicole said nonchntly as she did not feel like catching up.


    In response, Martin mustered a bitter smile and replied, "Okay then."


    Although Nicole could not recognize him, her attitude toward him was still as cold as ever after all these


    years.


    After that, Martin brought some of his examination equipment out and conducted a checkup on Nicole


    with a solemn expression on his face.


    The living room fell into pin-drop silence, with Martin not uttering a word and Nicole just sitting there


    quietly without a hint of impatience. She acted as if she already knew the results, and that she could


    face everything calmly, even if she turned out to be wrong.


    Jared gently held Nicole''s hand as if he was trying tofort her.


    Jared believed that there was hope as long as they tried. They could seek help from someone else if


    Martin could not help them, and that there would always be a way.
