Chapter 1444 The Plan

Nicole found the shop conveniently located close to her apartment, which she assumed Kendrick had chosen with

her pregnancy in mind.

She settled into a private room, taking in the surroundings and listening to the noise from outside.

"I'm sorry for the delay. I was held up at the company." Kendrick entered the room. His gaze filled with concern as

he glanced at Nicole. "How far along are you?"

"Mr. Hofstead, I'm seven months along," Nicole replied with a smile, placing her phone on the table and leaning

back in her chair.

"Mr. Hofstead, I've asked you here today to discuss the medical base," Nicole said, glancing at the time to gauge

the appropriate moment to begin.

She hoped that Darcy would soon discover her meeting with Kendrick, providing her with an opportunity to gather

information.

"Alright, Miss Anderson, please proceed," Kendrick said, closely observing Nicole's subtle movements and feeling a

twinge of pain in his heart.

He was reluctant to believe that Nicole was aligned with Colton, but the current evidence seemed to suggest

otherwise.

"I apologize for my absence at the base due to my pregnancy. I've been reviewing reports at home since shortly

after we began collaborating," Nicole said, offering a smile as she knew she needed to say something to buy some

time.

"I understand; you're pregnant, after all. You can resume your supervisory role after you've given birth and had a

full month of rest."

Kendrick showed a rare smile. He pushed a glass of milk toward Nicole and paused before continuing, "Coffee and

such aren't advisable during pregnancy, so I've ordered you hot milk."

Nicole's eyes briefly showed surprise, but she quickly regained her composure and softly responded, "Thank you."

If it weren't for Kendrick's deep-seated hostility toward Colton, perhaps they could have developed a genuine

friendship. Unfortunately, their opposing stances and conflicting interests destined them to remain strangers in the

end.

Despite their conversation being unrelated to Colton, both of them were aware that the other had gathered

significant information. It was a subtle, unspoken acknowledgment of their mutual knowledge.

Nicole found herself at a loss for words and glanced at the time, wondering if Darcy's vigilance was truly lacking.

After seeing that Nicole had nothing more to say, Kendrick remained patient, sitting quietly and maintaining his

gaze on her.

"Kendrick, why didn't you inform me you were coming here?" asked Darcy at the very moment.

Upon entering the room, Darcy noticed the pregnant Nicole sitting across from Kendrick. She slightly narrowed her

eyes and immediately feigned concern toward Kendrick.

"I had a meeting with Miss Anderson today," Kendrick calmly explained. His gaze never left Darcy as he held her

hand. Although his expression remained affectionate, there was a subtle hint of surprise in his eyes.

Darcy was supposed to be shopping with her sisters today. How does she manage to find this place?

If it weren't for Kendrick's ulterior motives, Nicole might have believed that Kendrick genuinely cared for Darcy.

"Better late than never. Mr. Hofstead and I have finished our discussion, so I'll take my leave." Nicole suddenly

interrupted their conversation.

Upon hearing this, Kendrick quickly turned to Nicole, wondering if she had revealed their secret. However, Nicole

hadn't touched her phone. How could...

Suddenly, Kendrick seemed to realize something. His eyes narrowed slightly. He hadn't expected to be caught off

guard here.

"Miss Anderson, allow me to walk you out. Your current physical condition isn't very convenient, right?" As Nicole

was preparing to depart, Darcy unexpectedly offered to accompany her.

Nicole stopped in her tracks. A slight smile formed on her lips as she turned to Darcy, and her expression was filled

with surprise. She chuckled lightly and said, "Sure."

Kendrick furrowed his brow when he heard this, sensing the potential trouble. However, if both women were in

agreement, would his intervention appear suspicious?
