Chapter 183
Even though Cordelia was afraid, she quickly calmed herself down. After pondering for a moment, she retrieved her clothes from the closet.
Zephyr was surprised, not knowing what she wanted to do.
“I have an idea,” Cordelia said softly. “Darling, change him into these and dress him up like a woman!
“Then take him out of the hotel, and people won’t suspect you!”
Zephyr gave it a thought. The current priority was to send Nicholas out. They could give the idea a try!
Cordelia left the bedroom, and the men got to work swiftly. When the door opened again, Nicholas had already changed into her clothes. Although the man was bigger in size, it was fortunate that Cordelia’s clothes were loose. It was a long dress, so it could wrap him up.
Cordelia scanned him and got a pretty hair clip out from her purse to put it on him.
“Push the hair in front… to block the face!”
He did seem quite the role.
Zephyr asked Ian to help Nicholas out. As the two of them stumbled away, they looked like a couple passionately in love if one did not get a closer look.
“Both of you, leave from the hotel’s backdoor. There aren’t many people there, and there aren’t surveillance cameras on the way either. It should be relatively safe.” Zephyr sketched a simple map and gave them a name card.
“Go to this clinic once you’re out. I’ll be there after you!”
Cordelia paused and looked at her husband oddly.
He had not been to this hotel too many times. How did he know which door had fewer people and which area had no surveillance cameras? How could he sketch the map so calmly and was so familiar with the place like… it was his house?
“Honey, what’s the matter?” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“Oh.” Cordelia snapped out of her daze. “Nothing…
“Luckily, I brought a spare outfit.” He gave it to her. “Get changed quickly. We’ll check out and leave.”
“But this room…” She looked at the torn sheets and blood in worry.
Zephyr paused and took the red ink out of the desk drawer to spill it around.
Cordelia was even more confused. “Darling, how did you know there’s red ink in the drawer?”
“Suites like this usually have them,” he answered nonchalantly. “A bottle of red, black, and blue ink each. Because some people only use ink pens to write.”
“How do you know?
“Have you… stayed in suites like this before?”
Zephyr’s heart lurched, and his expression changed.
Cordelia licked her lips and felt her throat going dry. For some reason, her heart beat wildly.
“Darling, you—”
“Let’s hurry!” Zephyr looked at her. “Nicholas is probably out now. He can’t go to regular hospitals in that state. He can only go to people we know. We need to take him to Seth’s clinic!”
Cordelia nodded. Saving the guy was more urgent right now. Perhaps she had thought too much about it just now. Maybe he had not always been poor and had come to enjoy himself at a place like this after earning some money.
She tucked her doubts away and got changed to hurry off with him.
Seth met them at the emergency room after they arrived at the clinic. He could not help frowning when he saw Nicholas on the bed.
Zephyr and Cordelia were quite worried. After all, they were love rivals.
In spite of it, Seth only looked at him for a bit before he arranged for an emergency treatment swiftly.
Soon, the light above the operation ward dimmed, and he came out, taking off his sweaty mask and looking at the couple with a complicated gaze.
