Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2235

"Let's go, Sean."

Sean furrowed his brows. "Nikki, why do you keep urging me to leave?"

'Aren't they supposed to stay and watch Jim get arrested by the cops so Nikki could be proven innocent? Why does Nikki keep on wanting to leave?' Sean thought.

"She's afraid of being arrested, that's why," Assistant Coleman chimed in. "Mr.

Wheeler, how can you not tell this when this woman is acting so obviously? She's the one who injected the poison into Ms. Craig's body. Why else would she be so afraid of the cops? Why does she keep on insisting on leaving?"

Sean squinted and unconsciously let go of the hand that held Nikki's. He did not think that the people who worked for Jim could be good people, but...Assistant Coleman was making sense.

If Nikki was truly innocent, why did she insist on them leaving? Why could she not wait for the cops to arrive?

"I..." Nikki bit her lip and was silent for a while. Finally, unable to refrain herself, she burst into tears once more. "That’s right, I'm afraid of the cops!

"Sean, you know that I had just suffered from sexual assault, and I don't want to go to the police station. What if they ask about the rape? I can't stand it anymore! I don't want to think of the time my innocence has been ripped from me! "

Nikki's cries, as well as her faltering voice, wrung Sean's heart tightly. He subconsciously extended his hand and pulled her into his arms once more, guilt-ridden that he doubted his sister just because Jim and his assistant incited him.
