When he heard the question come out of Korvin's mouth, Nicholas looked silent, and then he rubbed his face roughly, making his palms covered in blood perfectly. Nicholas immediately smiled. He walked to the wasteful, then washed his hands and faced clean. After that, he looked at Korvin, who was already looking at him with that frightened look on his face.
"I was trying to see what happened. That's when I was right there. I was caught by one of the shooters. They are a group of terrorists fighting weapons, and unfortunately, the shield is your residence and the house next door. Fortunately, we survived, even though my life was almost lost in vain, but one of the other terrorists hit the other terrorist's head, and yes, his blood hit me like this. If you want to see, maybe the bodies of the two dead terrorists are still in the ground. The end of the road, while the other terrorists had gone missing.
Korvin immediately walked in a hurry, and then he hugged Nicholas. Korvin wept bitterly hearing Nicholas' explanation.
"Oh my God, Nick. Are you all right? I was apprehensive if something happened to you. It would help if you didn't get hurt, and being in that situation must be hard on you. I would never want you in any danger, Nick. Especially if you put yourself in danger for me as well, Grace. We don't want you to sacrifice your life in vain and in vain,"
Nicholas' heart warmed again after Korvin was still praying for his safety. Now Korvin looked so worried about him. Nicholas smiled, then he looked at Korvin, who was already looking at him with that sad look, wiping his tear-stained face perfectly. Korvin was a fine young man, Nicholas admitted. Maybe his parents' upbringing made him like that, and no wonder Grace is the same. Both are good people whose happiness has been snatched away by accident. By who else, if not by Nicholas. One of the biggest mistakes in Nicholas' life that somehow could repay what he had done in the past.
"Thanks for your concern. I'll make sure I'm never hurt. Trust me," Nicholas said at last. Korvin shook his head again.
"No, no… I'm afraid I still have to disagree. You know, my parents were brutally and brutally murdered in the past. My mother was raped and then shot gruesomely, while my father was shot in various corners of his body. After that incident, Grace and I didn't want to see the people we care about in danger again. I beg of you, Nick. I know you are rich and powerful, but I beg you to take care of yourself. You are a good person, and I don't want you to be hurt and put yourself in danger again. Because if you're in danger, what about Grace?"
"You mean?"
"Grace seems very interested in you, and Grace also works with you. You treat Grace, a worker, very well and give me a lot of money. So how can you give your life for Grace too? I don't want Grace to lose someone she loves, and I hope you can live in peace and happiness together with Grace. Yes, of course, if you will love my sister who lacks so much,"
Nicholas smiled again, and he didn't even expect Korvin to say that. Something that even Nicholas himself could not guess at all about Grace's heart. The woman was tough for Nicholas to conquer, always in his grasp, but when he wanted to hold her tight, she quickly went away very real.
"Never mind, now you meet Grace. I want to smoke outside first while looking at the situation. I also don't want to put you in danger, especially Grace. I don't want to see any more tears coming out of her beautiful eyes,"
Korvin nodded, then he entered Grace's room. Meanwhile, Nicholas walked out saw several police officers had arrived in an ambulance. Nicholas called someone, letting his cigarette smoke billow in the wind, until the moment the call made a genuine connection.
"Yes, Nick. What's the matter? Don't you feel at home at the Hesters?"
"Quickly check the body found in the district where the Hesters live. I want to know who the perpetrator of this brutal shooting was."
"You mean someone attacked you?" asked Marvin on the other side.
"Yeah, and almost there, Grace and her brother were killed. After this, you have to send some snipers to guard the Hesters' house, and I don't want Grace and her sister to be in danger. Always report progress to me, Marvin."
After calling, Nicholas immediately hung up his cell phone, and when he saw that the ambulance and the police were investigating the crime scene. Nicholas again took out the smoke, and then he threw the cigarette butt at the origin, then he went back into the house. Even whoever it was, no matter what it had to do with the death of his family, as long as it had begun to disturb his peace, and put his girl in danger, then Nicholas would never hesitate to investigate thoroughly and even kill the root of the savages who constantly interfere with his life.

This morning, the atmosphere seemed to be quite different. Both Korvin and Grace, who had just woken up from sleep, seemed to smell something very delicious. When the two of them came out of the room, they both looked surprised to see the various menus of very sumptuous dishes that seemed to fill their small dining table; all the food menus looked freshly cooked because the hot steam was still steaming very clearly there.
Grace and Korvin smiled happily, and then he drew closer until Nicholas tilted his face with a warm smile, lifting the hot soup on the stove.
"You're awake? How was your sleep, did you all sleep well? Have breakfast; I have prepared a dish for your breakfast. I hope you like it."
"You cooked all this?" then Grace asked. Nicholas moved closer to Grace and then patted the top of her head, that smile still genuine.
"Of course, Korvy said these are all your favorite dishes. So I'm trying to make the food you like. Try it, and tell me whether it's good or not. I ordered the ingredients online and luckily arrived on time. Erm," Nicholas now looked at Grace, then he stroked the top of Grace's head gently. "Are you all right? You're okay about last night, right?" he asked then.
