Nicole's stomach hurts for a moment, but she held it back.
"Do you find Davon's corpse?"
After so many days, no one dared to say the word corpse, fearing that it would upset Zayn and Phoenix. Because Phoenix was a princess, although the relationship between Davon and Zayn was not made public, Davon was considered as the emperor's son-in-law of Country F. Now that the son-in-law had been killed, the atmosphere in the entire palace was truly heavy.
Now that Nicole had said the word, the surrounding guards and maids looked at her and hurriedly lowered their heads, afraid that the King would blame them.
Zayn also felt very uncomfortable. Although he didn't want to hear the word, now that Nicole had asked, he had to answer.
"It hasn't been found yet, but Inez found one of his legs."
"One leg? Did you do a DNA test?"
Nicole was unwilling to believe this fact in her heart, and what she said then made Zayn slightly stunned.
"DNA?"
"That's right. Otherwise, how could you conclude that that leg belongs to Davon?"
Nicole's words snapped Zayn to his senses.
Yeah, how could they conclude it was Davon's leg just by a pair of trousers?
"I'll go find Inez now."
As he spoke, Zayn was about to run out, but he was stopped by Samuel.
"Let us go with you."
At this time, Phoenix was probably in a very unstable mood. If Zayn said anything anxious, Phoenix would not care if he was the King or not. She would still make a move.
Cara bit her lower lip and stood there. She was the most embarrassed person because Laurence was her boyfriend.
"Follow me."
Nicole shook Cara's hand.
Cara nodded and suppressed the sadness in her eyes.
The group went to the Sawyer's.
Samuel looked at Nicole worriedly and asked, "How do you feel?"
"Quite good."
Nicole replied in a low voice. She faintly felt that her stomach was a little uncomfortable, but she could endure it.
Samuel glanced at Morgan. Morgan hurriedly took her pulse and gave her a pill.
A bitter taste rippled through her mouth.
Normally, Nicole would definitely not be able to take it, but now she had to endure it for Davon's sake.
Seeing that Morgan did not say anything, Samuel felt relieved.
When the few of them arrived at the Sawyer's, Kim was just about to leave. When he saw that it was Zayn, he hurriedly bowed, but Zayn stopped him.
"There is no need between our friends. Where is Inez?"
"She hasn't returned from the Dark Forest yet."
Kim saw Phoenix go to the Dark Forest day and night these past few days. He really didn't dare to imagine that if something really happened to Davon, would Phoenix be able to live alone?
The deathly silence on her body was so oppressive that others couldn't breathe. Although she didn't cry, Kim would rather she did
"Is Davon's leg still here?"
"Yes, it was stored in the bedroom by Phoenix with a crystal coffin."
Kim said in a low voice with tears in his eyes.
"Phoenix has been keeping watch over that broken leg without food and water for the past few days. She's about to collapse. If we still can't find Laurence, Inez probably won't be able to hold on any longer."
Cara knew what Phoenix wanted to do with Laurence. She really didn't know what to say at this moment. They were all women. There was no right and wrong in one relationship, but deep affection only. But now, it seemed that Phoenix's feelings towards Davon were as strong as death.
Cara didn't know how to repay such deep affection.
"Take us to have a look."
Nicole spoke.
Kim hesitated.
"Phoenix has repeatedly ordered that no one is allowed to approach. This..."
"I won't object to her guarding Davon's corpse, but it depends on whether that broken leg belongs to him. If not, why would she be full of remorse?"
As Nicole spoke, she pushed Kim away.
Because he knew Nicole's identity and physical condition, Kim didn't dare to further stop her, but what Nicole said just now made him a little puzzled.
"The name on the trousers was personally embroidered by Phoenix. It can't be wrong. Why isn't it Davon's broken leg?"
No one answered Kim's question. Perhaps everyone had a fantasy that the broken leg was not Davon's.
The group quickly entered Davon and Phoenix's bedroom.
To preserve the broken leg, the temperature in the bedroom directly dropped to the lowest. As soon as Nicole opened the door, she was shuddered by the cold air.
Samuel hurriedly took off his coat and wrapped it around her.
"Let me go in. The temperature inside is too low. I'm afraid you can't take it."
"Morgan, go see if you can get some samples."
"Distressed? If only he was distressed. If it could make him hurry back, I would be willing to die."
"Don't talk nonsense."
Nicole scolded her, but she felt uncomfortable.
"I will find Laurence to avenge Davon."
Phoenix's words made Cara a little anxious, but she didn't know what to say.
"I'm sorry, Miss Phoenix. I'm very sorry about Mr. Davon. I apologize to you on behalf of Laurence."
Cara lowered her head and sincerely apologized.
However, Phoenix said coldly, "Is it enough to simply apologize for murder? Then can you say that it doesn't matter if I apologize to you after killing Laurence?"
Cara didn't know how to reply.
Nicole rarely saw Phoenix's violent appearance, even when she had treated Nicole as her rival in love.
"Phoenix."
"It's useless for anyone to say anything about this. If Davon is fine, I wouldn't care if you scolded me, not to mention to apologize. But now that I still don't know whether my husband is alive, and it's your boyfriend Laurence who made it. Isn't it ridiculous for you to say sorry to me? It is a person, not a dog or a cat, and it could not be settled with an apology. You should be glad that I'm still rational and didn't throw you out."
Phoenix glared at Cara, and her expression was filled with resentment as if she wanted to kill her.
Nicole hurriedly pulled her back and whispered, "You can't judge that Davon is gone just because of a broken leg. What if that broken leg isn't his?"
"I sewed the trousers!"
"So what? Pants are lifeless, while people are alive. I've sent someone to do a DNA test, and we will have the result tomorrow. If that broken leg is not Davon's, then it means that he is very likely still alive. Then isn't your present stance that the whole world is your enemy in vain? Also, you should hurry up and eat something. Take a nap and rest. You can only do what you need to do after you have enough energy."
Nicole's words left Phoenix a little dumbfounded.
"Are you saying that the broken leg is not Davon's?"
"I'm just saying that it's possible. Before there's any scientific evidence, isn't it a bit too arbitrary for you to make such an early judgment? Phoenix, I know that you and Davon have deep affection toward each other, but I believe in Laurence and Davon. He shouldn't die so easily."
Nicole didn't know if she was comforting Phoenix or herself, but Phoenix had obviously heard her.
"But those people are all dead. They died miserably. Davon..."
"As long as we don't find his corpse, we can't conclude that he's dead! You're his wife, so you should have confidence in him, right? Phoenix, listen to me. Go eat and sleep. We will have the result after you wake up."
Looking at Nicole's warm eyes, Phoenix finally relaxed.
"Is it really possible that he is still alive? I've been inside the Dark Forest before, but I can't go in. Many mutated animals are blocking it, and the creatures that enter will be torn apart. So..."
"Believe in Davon, Phoenix, and relax. Now that we're here, no matter what happens, we'll be by your side. He's not only your husband, but he's also my brother, isn't he?"
Phoenix finally relaxed after hearing Nicole's words. She cried out loud. Her cry was so heart-wrenching that even moved the listeners to tears.
