Chapter 2270
Chapter 2270
Three Months Later The countdown timer finally came to an abrupt end.
That one minute felt like it was taking so long, but at the same time, it also felt very short.
In the last few seconds, the ticking timer seemed to drag on infinitely.
It sounded like an air defense siren that pierced through the depths of the sea.
Nicole’s nervous heart calmed down instantly.
The man she loved was by her side, so why should she be afraid of death?
How could she ignore everything and leave him behind? Nicole squeezed his hand.
Before she could say a word, she heard the explosion.
The explosion almost shattered her eardrums, and it seemed to engulf everything in an instant.
It was cold and indifferent.
At that moment, Nicole felt the impact of the shockwave and was pushed outward.
In this deep sea, their lives seemed insignificant.
The fish on the other side of the glass was soon shaken by the strong shockwave.
The seawater swept over and destroyed everything in its path.
All the lights around them went out.
There was a flash of white light at the bottom of the sea, and it was fleeting like lightning.
Then, the area instantly plunged into darkness.
The explosion was more like an earthquake at the bottom of the sea.
The glass tunnel shattered, and the remaining debris pierced through everything.
The seawater tumbled violently.
The air disappeared, and the water surged in.
The explosion caused a big commotion, and everything in front of them instantly collapsed.
It happened so suddenly that everyone could not adapt to the sudden loss of air and fell unconscious.
However, Nicole instinctively remembered to grab onto the man in the wheelchair even if they were sinking and suffocating.
The severe pain was unbearable, but she did not dare to let go of him.
Nicole was afraid that once she let go, she would really lose the most important person in her life.
Sebastian was right.
Only a few could escape in one minute.
In fact, not even one person made it out.
That was because even if they left the undersea laboratory, they did not have time to reach the cruise ship.
The elevator would only stop in the middle of the sea before it was blasted by the explosion, rendering it useless.
They would either drown or die from the impact.
So, what was the point of running? Even if they managed to get onto the cruise ship, the turbulent seawater from the explosion would cause the cruise ship to capsize…
The night was dark.
The tumbling waves from the bottom of the sea reached the surface, and it looked normal as if nothing had changed.
Even the explosion was almost inaudible.
Thousands of miles across the ocean.
Floyd was sitting at home drinking tea and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.
His face turned pale from the pain, and he could not breathe.
He was drenched in a cold sweat.
Floyd suddenly had a bad premonition and immediately called Nicole.
As a result, no one answered.
He also called Kai, but Kai did not answer either…
Three months later.
In the research laboratory of LJ Corporation.
Nicole finally woke up.
Even with the most advanced medical equipment and technology, life was fragile in the face of an explosion.
Nicole’s entire body was injured from the huge shockwave.
Her most serious injury was having a piece of iron pierced through her shoulder blade.
The back of her head was also hit hard.
Thus, Nicole was in a coma for three months.
When she woke up, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
That was because there was immense pressure coming from Mediania.
Floyd called three times a day and wished that he could go over and look after Nicole.
If Grant did not stop him, Floyd would have been by Nicole’s side.
Kai stayed there to take care of Nicole and kept the family updated on Nicole’s condition.
He also took care of the children.
Hearing that Nicole was finally awake, Kai could not wait to take Chatty and Fischer to LJ Corporation.
Eric had already arrived.
In fact, it was all thanks to Eric that Nicole was found.
Chatty excitedly held Fischer’s hand and ran over.
“Uncle K! Is Mommy really awake?” Kai was also grinning from ear to ear.
“Yes, she’s awake! I can finally go home now! I don’t have to get scolded every day again!” He said excitedly.
When Nicole was in a coma, Floyd called Kai every day to talk about three topics.
The first thing Floyd would say was how he felt sorry for poor Nicole.
The second thing Floyd did was scold Kai, who was sleeping when Nicole got into this accident.
The third thing Floyd did was to tell Kai to make up for his mistakes by taking care of Nicole and Chatty.
Otherwise, he would not allow Kai to go back home.
Now that Nicole was fine, Kai would finally be relieved of his duties.
Thinking about his freedom, Kai carried Chatty on his shoulders and picked Fischer up with one arm.
He quickened his pace and went to the lounge.
Leighton sat there and talked to Camille.
Leighton was also injured in this explosion, but he was in a much better condition than Nicole.
That was because nothing was holding him back at the time.
When Fischer saw his parents, he jumped over happily.
Camille went over and hugged him with a smile.
Kai walked over.
“Leighton, Camille! Is my sister really awake?” Camille nodded and said with a smile, “You can go in to havea look.
The doctors said that she’s recovering well.
Now that she’s awake, it means that she’s out of danger and just needs to recuperate.” Kai was elated.
“Thanks, Leighton and Camille!” Kai had been there for so long and was free to come and go in LJ Corporation due to his sweet talk.
Chatty happily imitated Kai’s words.
“Thanks, Leighton and Camille!” Kai clicked his tongue.
Fischer immediately corrected Chatty.
“You have to call them Daddy and Mommy!” Chatty nodded cutely and flashed a bright and lovely smile.
“Thank you, Daddy and Mommy!” Camille’s heart melted.
She went over to carry Chatty from Kai’s shoulder.
“You’re such a good girl…” Once Chatty was placed on the ground, no one could control her.
Chatty ran straight into the ward.
She saw her mother leaning against the wall with a pale face, while the weird man stood on the side.
z The medical equipment in the room was cleared.
Chatty was not tall enough to see what was on the bed.
She could not jump on the bed due to her short legs, so she ran to Eric.
“Uncle, carry me…” Eric looked helplessly at the little girl who usually ignored him except when she had something to ask of him.
She would come over and act pitiful when she needed something.
Eric pinched Chatty’s face and put her next to Nicole.
Chatty happily crawled over to hug Nicole.
“Mommy! Mommy…” Nicole smiled slightly, reached out, and patted her daughter.
It was an amazing feeling to see someone she loved again.
Nicole was surprised that she escaped death again.
She had too many close calls.
However, this time was the closest she had ever been to death’s door.
She was suicidal to think that she could resist the explosion.
That was because she wanted to bring someone back to life.
Thus, she did not let go of him even if she had to die.
However, when she looked toward the door, he was not there.
A bad feeling loomed over her, and she did not even dare to ask about him.
