Chapter 2229

“You got it all wrong!” Alas, Nikki’s attempts of convincing Jim could not sway him whatsoever, what more
in the way she stuttered in her words.

Jim squinted. “Not going to fess up, are we?”

The force on his grip intensified, powerful enough that he lifted her off of the floor and strong enough to
potentially snap Nikki’s neck if he continued! Nikki could only struggle.

“I’m telling you the truth. I-I didn’t lie to you! I…”

Nikki, at this point, could barely force out a sentence or two compared to seconds ago. In such a
helpless state, she could only put up a pitiful fight.

A noisy clatter was heard when she accidentally knocked over the things on the table when she
struggled. Jim’s eyebrows furrowed at the noise, but despite the intensity of his grip lessening, he did not
let go of Nikki.

Both of them ended up in a stalemate.

At that moment, Jim’s assistant, Coleman, knocked on the door and entered, reporting his findings as he
did.

“I’m here with the information you wanted to look into, Sir.

“I’ve discovered bits of information about when your mother was still alive. Your mother had a son with
Mr. Wheeler, Sean Wheeler. She was pregnant for the second time, but Mr. Wheeler passed away during
her pregnancy. Your mother had grieved severely, which resulted in her having a miscarriage.



“Along the line, she adopted a daughter from the orphanage and gave her a name, Nikki Wheeler. This
woman…”

When he finally realized what was happening in the room, Coleman was stunned.

“Nikki Wheeler?” His gaze alternated from the documents at hand, to the woman caught in Jim’s grip.

“Is that you, Nikki Wheeler?”

Jim furrowed his brows and glanced at Assistant Coleman coldly.

“What nonsense are you talking about?”

The startled Assistant Coleman took a while before answering, “Sir, the woman in your grip…is very
likely to be the daughter your mother, Lucy had adopted. She grew up together with Sean Wheeler. Her
name is Nikki Wheeler.”

Jim squeezed his brows together and glanced at the information on Assistant Coleman’s .The first page
was, coincidentally, about Nikki’s information.

He squinted.

Before this, he had no idea what motives this woman had and why she would want to inject something
into Bonnie’s body.

With this information, he finally understood.

This woman, Nikki Wheeler had misunderstood the relationship between Bonnie and Sean, considering
Bonnie as her love rival. This explained why she injected whatever it was she had injected into

Bonnie’s body.



A foreboding feeling bubbled within Jim the moment everything clicked for him, and he internally gasped.

He turned and quickly grabbed Nikki, who was about to escape, and pushed her against the wall once
more. “Since you’re Nikki Wheeler, what did you inject into Bonnie’s body? Don’t tell me it’s just normal
saline.”

“Well, well.”

“Not bad, Young Master Landry, you’ve figured it out! Too bad, though.” Nikki giggled.

“You’re still too late. Bonnie will only have seven days left to live!”
