Chapter 1302: Departure [2]
Nicole took a taxi back to the Seys Family’s house, gently greeted her family sitting in the living room, and headed upstairs.
After organizing some clothes and taking the essential items like her passport for going abroad, Nicole booked a flight and dragged her suitcase downstairs.
"Nicole, where are you going?" Ariel Morris, eating some fruit, watched Nicole dragging her suitcase and immediately stood up to ask.
Nicole’s expression was somewhat somber, "I’m going on a trip for a while."
"A pre-wedding trip? Did you inform Steven Cooper, or are you going together?"
"I’m going by myself."
"Where to?" Arlo Seys lifted his deep gaze from the magazine and looked at Nicole.
Nicole pursed her lips slightly, "Italy. Brother, just assume this is a pre-wedding solo trip for me. When I’m tired, I’ll come home, then peacefully get married and have children, letting life just go by like that."
Arlo Seys looked at Nicole, nodded slightly, and said lightly, "Remember to keep in touch with the family."
"I know." Nicole dragged her suitcase and left.
"Be careful out there alone, stay in big hotels, and of course, if you hire two security guards to follow you, even better, your brother will pay for it!" Ariel Morris said, eating grapes and shouting to Nicole.
Nicole turned back with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you’re really generous."
Ariel Morris smiled, nestled in Arlo Seys’s arm, and munched on grapes.
Arlo Seys watched his sister leave, a slight smile on his lips, "Mrs. Seys, you give favors quite well."
Ariel Morris teasingly rolled her eyes and said, "Anyway, it’s your job to earn money and support the family, I just need to be pretty as a flower."
"I’ve managed to support the family, but your ’pretty as a flower’ could use some work," Arlo Seys chuckled softly.
"... You’d better keep quiet and stay silent when you can’t speak nicely, oh charming one," Ariel Morris said, shoving two grapes into Arlo Seys’s mouth, "Stop talking, or I’ll take Ryan Seys and Iris to my brother’s place."
Arlo Seys’s face showed a smile, "Your brother has been busy visiting Lydia Brooke on set lately, he won’t have time to host you."
"... As expected, putting romance over family," Ariel Morris muttered while eating.

Here, Arlo Seys and Ariel Morris were loving and sweet as a couple.
Meanwhile, at the airport, Nicole, pulling her luggage by herself, passed through security and boarded the flight to Italy.
At the hotel.
Jose Floyd woke up to find he was already alone, and only after calling the front desk did he learn Nicole had already left.
Jose Floyd, with a stern expression, drove back to the Clearflower Estate.
At the same time, at the Clearflower Estate.
Andrea Greenwood stood in the garden trimming bonsai, then answered a phone call as her eyes turned cold. Suddenly, the scissors fell, sharply snipping off a brightly blooming flower. With an icy smile, she said over the phone, "Then—let her die in a foreign land! Never to return to City C in her lifetime! After it’s done, another half a million will be transferred to your account. In Italy, guns are legal; finding someone to kill her won’t be hard."
Just as she hung up, the butler walked over.
"Miss Greenwood, the young master is back."
"Brother Jose is back?" Andrea Greenwood’s face instantly lit up with pleasure, handing the pruning shears to the butler, "I’m going to the living room!"
The butler watched Andrea Greenwood’s undisguised excitement and smiled, nodding, "I’ll find someone to help Miss Greenwood trim these flowers."
"Yes, leave it to you!"
Andrea Greenwood returned to the living room and saw Jose Floyd, who had just walked in, with a gentle smile on her face, her voice as soft as water, "Brother Jose, why weren’t you at the hospital these two days? Mother and I went to visit you, the doctor said you weren’t there, where did you go?"
