Chapter 519 Do You Have a Heart of Stone

"What do you say?"

Nicole's face immediately darkened.

However, Wendy had hung up the phone. And Nicole seemed to have heard people quarrelling before
that.

Someone wanted to take Zoe away?

Who?

Vincent?

Nicole rushed home instantly, but she was still late.

Wendy cried, "Nicole, I couldn't stop them. I..."

"Who took them?"

Nicole looked terrifyingly gloomy.

Wendy said while trembling, "It, it's Mr. Vincent's people."

It was indeed him!

Irritated, Nicole returned to the Eternal Group.

"Mrs. Green, the president is busy. Please wait a moment. I'll tell him."

The secretary intended to stop Nicole, but Nicole pushed her away.



She kicked open the door of the office. Everyone was stunned by such a savage action. After all, to
them, Nicole was Mrs. Green, a noble lady, and designer Catherine. No matter what, she shouldn't be
so rude and barbaric.

However, it didn't matter to Nicole.

She grabbed Vincent by the collar and asked anxiously, "Where did you send Zoe and Joseph?"

Nicole was so emotional. Vincent looked at her and smiled, "Why are you so nervous? I'm actually
doing this for you. You see, brother is outside now, and Lucas is not here, either. You're ill, and the two
kids are just too noisy at home. Zoe likes Joseph so much, so of course, I have to get them together.
Don't worry, I just found a fun place for them. I promise they'll have a good time."

"I have the final say on where my daughter goes. What do you mean by taking them away without my
consent?"

Nicole was so angry that she trembled slightly.

If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't beat Vincent, she wouldn't mind punching him in the face right
now.

However, Vincent did not seem to feel her rudeness. He continued smiling, "Nicole, I am doing this for
you."

"Really? You are doing this for me? By treating me like this when your brother's not around? It doesn't
seem like that to me. Vincent, what exactly do you want?"

Nicole couldn't stay calm anymore.

She knew that it was impossible for her to continue pretending to be calm in front of Vincent. After all,
he had already made his move, and it was very fast and accurate. He directly went for her weak spots,



leaving her no choice but to confront him like this.

Vincent just pulled away Nicole's hand, tidied up his shirt and said, "Nicole, don't insult me. I just want
you to do me a favor."

"Do you a favor? I'd say it's a coerced 'favor'?"

"Whatever you say. My aim is very simple. As long as you can find Mr. Bates and get me what I want,
Zoe will come back safely."

Nicole's eyes narrowed as she heard him.

"I don't know any Mr. Bates, nor do I know what you want."

"It's very simple. Don't you know Chuck? He has come to you over and over again."

Nicole frowned more deeply.

"Are you monitoring me?"

"Monitoring? No. I was just worried about your safety and accidentally saw someone coming to you."

Vincent was kind of a genius, being able to say these shameless words with such grandiose sounding.

At this point, even if Nicole said she didn't recognize him, it would be useless.

"I don't know Chuck, and I don't know how to contact him, so I might not be able to help you."

However, Vincent smiled and said, "I know where Chuck is. As long as you can make him talk and let
me know where Mr. Bates is and get what I want, Zoe will come back to you. I promise."



"You shameless! Don't you feel ashamed when you threaten me with your own niece's life? That's right,
people like you have no pride. How could you care about that?"

Nicole's words made Vincent's smile frozen for a moment.

"Well, that was really surprising."

"Surprising? Since we have stopped pretending now, why don't you just tell me where Samuel is now?
Does his missing have anything to do with you?"

Nicole stared at Vincent fiercely.

However, Vincent only said indifferently, "I really don't know about my brother's missing."

"Stop pretending in front of me. Vincent, let me tell you, if anything happens to Samuel and my
daughter, I will not let you get away with it."

Nicole meant what she said.

She was declaring war on Vincent.

Vincent finally stopped smiling.

He looked at Nicole and said coldly, "Do you think I'm a bastard?"

"It's not what I think. You ARE a bastard."

Nicole took a few steps back and looked at the face that was the same as Samuel, but her heart was
very beating violently.

What was she supposed to do?



Where were Samuel and Zoe?

Nicole didn't know at all. She didn't even know what Vincent wanted her to do.

Her people had gone to save Chuck, and she didn't know if they could succeed. Now, Vincent was so
confident in front of her, waiting for her reply. Could it be that her people had...

Nicole's heart skipped a beat, but her face remained plain.

Vincent looked at Nicole, wanting to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

"Since you disagree with me so much, then I won't say anything else. Still, get me Mr. Bates'
whereabouts. As long as you help me get it done, I will bring Zoe back. After all, she is my niece."

"You still know that she is your niece! Zoe trusts you so much! How could you do this to her?! Vincent,
do you have a heart of stone?"

Nicole was so furious, but Vincent didn't feel anything. Perhaps he had some thoughts, but Nicole really
couldn't tell.

"Nicole, you should now think of a way to get Chuck talking about where Mr. Bates is. I'll have someone
take you there. And the rest of it is left to you."

Samuel waved his hand, and some guys came in and stood beside Nicole. They looked quite
respectful, but they were with Vincent.

"Mrs. Green, please come with us."

What else could Nicole say at this time?

She didn't know what Vincent had to do with this Mr. Bates. If what Chuck had said earlier was true,
that meant Mr. Bates was really Samuel's guy?



Or was this just another pitfall of Vincent?

Nicole had no idea. She looked at Vincent deeply and said in a perishing voice, "If anything happens to
Zoe, you definitely won't get away with it."

"Don't worry, that's my niece. I've told you, I will make sure that she have fun."

Vincent waved his hand again and the guys took Nicole away.

But at this moment, Vincent's phone rang.

Nicole deliberately slowed her pace.

Vincent was suddenly irritated.

"What do you say? Chuck was taken away? You... A bunch of trash!"

Nicole smiled slightly.

Looked like her men have succeeded.

She stood at the door of the office and turned to look at Vincent, coldly, "Do you still need me to ask
that Chuck about Mr. Bates' info?"

Vincent looked at her with his eyes narrowed.

"You did it?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

Nicole looked back coldly.

She had never lost before in staring others down.



Vincent frowned slightly.

"Nicole, you should know that I have Zoe in my hand."

"Vincent, I don't even know who Chuck is. It was your people who lost him. And you want me to take
the blame? Do you think that's fun? If you're a man, you should go find him yourself. Don't vent your
anger on women and kids!"

Nicole did not expect Vincent to be so shameless.

Vincent stared at Nicole, hoping to see her flinch, but he failed.

"It really isn't you?"

"I've been in the company this whole day. Where can I possibly go?"

Nicole's words reminded Vincent that Jacob wasn't here, nor was Finn. Nicole really didn't seem to
have anyone around her now. But there were so many people from the Night Elf Empire and he didn't
know them all. Who would know if Nicole had anyone from there protecting her?

Vincent quickly thought about it. Finally, he whispered, "Then I'm sorry, Nicole. From now on, you will
have to stay in the Green's. I think if Mr. Bates wants to contact you so much, he will keep sending
people. I hope you can help me with this by then."

Hearing Vincent's shameless words, Nicole, again, trembled with anger.

"Are you going to house-arrest me?"

"House arrest? No, no. See, Nicole, you're ill now, and I just want you to have a good rest. That's all."

Vincent waved his hand again.



The people around her were a great threat to her.

She could sense that they had all been trained. If she really resisted, she would not be a match for
them.

She was already alone now, and it was of no use to kick against the pricks. She had to preserve her
strength and wait for reuniting with Samuel.

"Vincent, you'd better think about how to explain this to your brother later."

"Thank you. It's only my business."

Vincent had them take Nicole away.

Nicole was taken away from the building of the Eternal Group, extremely unwilling. Yet, when they went
out, they bumped into Tim at the gate.

"Hey, beauty, where are you going?"

Tim blocked their way in a frivolous manner.

Nicole was a little ecstatic, but on second thought, Zoe was still in Vincent's hands. She couldn't help
but feel a bit disappointed.

"Nothing. I'm just heading home."

Hearing that, Tim was slightly stunned.

"And you even have bodyguards now? How is it? Is Samuel back?"

Tim thought that Samuel had returned and wanted to talk to him, so he just asked directly.



Nicole said in hurry, "Samuel has gone missing. He is nowhere to be found. If Mr. Tim has the time,
please help me look for him. I am a bit ill and I can't go out these days. So, please. Thank you, Mr.
Tim."

These words stunned Tim again.

He knew that Nicole was ill, but she pointed it out in public. This was a little strange.

Seeing that the people beside her did not seem to be hers, Tim instantly frowned.

"They are..."

"Mr. Tim, I still have other things to tend to. See you next time."

After that, Nicole left without hesitation. She didn't want to waste her breath with Tim at all. However,
Tim suddenly realized that her response seemed to be a little fishy!

Nicole said in hurry, "Samuel has gone missing. He is nowhere to be found. If Mr. Tim has the time,
please help me look for him. | am a bit ill and | can't go out these days. So, please. Thank you, Mr.

Tim.
These words stunned Tim again.

He knew that Nicole was ill, but she pointed it out in public. This was a little strange.
Seeing that the people beside her did not seem to be hers, Tim instantly frowned.
“They are..."

"Mr. Tim, | still have other things to tend to. See you next time."

After that, Nicole left without hesitation. She didn't want to waste her breath with Tim at all. However,
Tim suddenly realized that her response seemed to be a little fishy!
