Chapter 1055 The Action Begins Tomorrow

After a sleepless night, Nicole looked all groggy in the morning with two big dark circles under her eyes. She had

laid in bed all night with her eyes closed, yet she simply couldn't fall asleep.

Letting out a yawn, she slowly dragged herself into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. Her haggard

look made the dark circles even more apparent on her fair face. After washing her face with water to refresh

herself a little, she got dressed and went downstairs.

Everyone else was already downstairs; they were sitting together in a circle and discussing something. Hearing the

sound of footsteps upstairs, they tacitly turned to look in her direction.

Nicole gave a yawn. With a tear in the corner of her eye, she slowly walked down the stairs. Seeing that they were

still discussing Wendy's kidnapping, she cut in, asking, "When are we gonna make the trade with them?"

"Tomorrow," replied Colton.

Nicole nodded and sat down next to the man. Leaning against him, she looked very droopy.

Colton turned to look at her. Seeing how she yawned repeatedly, he frowned slightly and tapped her forehead,

asking, "What's wrong? You didn't sleep well last night?"

Nicole lowered her eyes. As her long, curly eyelashes fluttered, she muttered, "Uh-huh, I couldn't sleep. I felt like

something was weighing on my mind."

After a sleepless night, Nicole looked all groggy in the morning with two big dark circles under her eyes. She had

laid in bed all night with her eyes closed, yet she simply couldn't fall asleep.

Seeing the visible dark circles under her eyes, he knew that she didn't sleep well indeed. He had thought that she

wouldn't be so worried; after all, she and Wendy had little to do with one another. Now that he saw how weary she

looked, he knew that she must've been up all night yesterday. "Don't worry about Wendy. I've already had

everything planned, so get a good rest. Otherwise, it's inconvenient if you're tired when we go tomorrow." His voice

carried a hint of pity.

Nicole rubbed her sore eyes. After pondering for a moment with her eyes closed, she said, "It's okay, I'll get some

sleep later. It's just that I couldn't sleep with something on my mind." Then, she turned to look at Colton and began

to study his face carefully. Seeing a hint of weariness in his eyes, she let out a chuckle, saying, "You didn't sleep well

either, did you?"

When he realized that she had seen through it, Colton wrapped his arm around her waist without saying a word and

let her nestle against him. Resting his chin on her shoulder, he replied under his breath, "Yeah, I'm a bit concerned,

after all. Wendy grew up living a comfortable life and has never been in such situations before. Even if Jerry isn't

going to do anything to her, I'm still worried that she might get scared."

Seeing how lovey-dovey the couple were, Beryl and Dominic had the sense to not interrupt. In the end, they simply

stood up and said, "Nicole, you'd better take Colton upstairs for some rest. We'll probably have a fierce battle

tomorrow. If we don't get enough rest, we might be unable to handle this. Nothing else matters more than our

health."

Nicole nodded, naturally accepting them calling her by her first name.

The couple had some chowder for breakfast. At first, she wanted to ask about the details of their plans for

tomorrow, but Colton silenced her with his hand over her mouth, saying, "Go and get some rest."

Nicole looked up at him with a hint of a smile in her eyes, as if saying, 'What about you, then?'

Having been together for a long time, the couple could somehow read each other's minds without talking to each

other. Smiling as if he had understood what Nicole wanted to say, Colton said, "I'll rest with you." With that, he took

her upstairs right away.

Nicole was rather sleepy indeed, so she nestled in his arms with a yawn. Then, recalling what had happened last

night, she couldn't help but ask, "Is that how you fooled me last night, telling me to sleep while you stayed up all

night thinking up ways to rescue Wendy?"
