Chapter 1049 Give Me up in Exchange

How could Sasha not know what Jerry was thinking? Looking at him coldly, she merely said in an icy voice, "You

don't have to care about the rest of this. If you're scared, you may leave now. I've gotten you two days to leave

with your people and stuff." By giving Colton two days, she was also giving Jerry two days. Even though she knew

that Wendy's kidnapping would definitely cause Jerry to offend Colton, she also had no idea that the latter was

actually associated with Pioneers.

Jerry grimaced at the woman before him. Then, for some unfathomable reason, he suddenly replied, "Never mind.

I've offended him, anyway, so I'm staying here with you. I'd also like to see what Pioneers are capable of."

Sasha frowned slightly. She previously thought Jerry would be impatient to leave, but she never expected him to

actually want to stay with her. What's gotten into him? she wondered, but she didn't ask him about it. At any rate,

an extra pair of hands would help greatly, and she had nothing to lose.

Colton came out with Nicole and Dominic. At the sight of this, the chauffeur hurriedly stubbed out his cigarette and

drove the car over to them. Looking at the cigarette butts all over the spot where he had previously stood, it was

obvious that he was a chain smoker who had been smoking at the door the whole time.

After the trio got into the car, the chauffeur stepped on the gas and drove off.

Nicole's eyebrows had been drawn together from the moment they came out until now. After a long time, she

suddenly looked up at Colton, saying, "How about I go over there to get Wendy out first?" This was the best solution

she could think of at the moment.

"No," Colton refused without the slightest hesitation. "I won't let you go."

Seeing the way he looked, Nicole was slightly moved deep down, but she calmed down soon afterward. She said to

him, "Wendy has just turned 18 this year. She hasn't been through much in life, so she may not be able to withstand

that kind of surroundings."

Colton's face was surly. After pondering for a while, he replied, "Even so, I can't let you go."

Hearing his steadfast refusal, Nicole felt somewhat helpless. She argued in a calm voice, "I'm from Lome,

remember? Well, my life's relatively peaceful now, but I've been through a lot of hard times. I can go there and get

Wendy out first before you come and save me. I can take this."

The furrows in Colton's brow deepened. However, Nicole interrupted him just when he was about to speak, saying,

"I know what you're thinking. Wendy is young and might be unable to withstand any of this, but I'm different. I've

been in Lome for more than half a year and have seen plenty of bloody stuff. I can get through this."

Colton said resolutely, "No, you can't." When did he ever need a woman's help? He couldn't bring himself to put

Nicole in danger.

How could Nicole not know what the man was thinking? But given how naive Wendy was, there was no way she

could survive there. Nicole patiently continued, "Colton, think about Wendy. You know what kind of a person she is.

She must be scared right now."

"Stop talking about this, will you?" Colton put his arms around her. Burying his face in her chest, he breathed in her

fruity, refreshing scent, which finally brought a moment of peace to his restless heart. He mumbled in a whisper,

"Nicole, Wendy is my sister, so I'm worried about her, but I can't bring myself to see you go either. Whether it's

dangerous or not, I don't want you to go."

Nicole fell silent at his words. Looking down at the man in her arms, she felt kind of emotional for the first time.

Letting out a soft sigh, she patted him on the back without saying anything else.
