Chapter 2983Chapter 2983
After refreshing herself, Nicole made her way to the hotel's breakfast area. She chose a light yet
nourishing meal and was on her way back to her room when she suddenly sensed someone's
presence. Reacting swiftly, she stopped, narrowly avoiding a collision and a potential breakfast
disaster.
Nicole's gaze landed on the man before her as she stepped back, her eyes narrowing ever so slightly.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebook"Sorry, I didn't see you there. I almost bumped into you," the man offered an apology.
Nicole gave him a brief, indifferent glance and shook her head, signaling that it was no big deal. She
then maneuvered around him with her tray, gracefully exiting the space.
The man watched Nicole leave, a shadow of intrigue passing over his eyes. He subtly slipped a button-
like item into his pocket and resumed selecting his breakfast, masking any hint of the earlier incident.
Meanwhile, Nicole lingered near the restaurant's entrance, discreetly keeping an eye on the man. She
had caught him putting something into his own pocket, and though its nature was uncertain, she was
sure it was meant for her - possibly something dangerous, or a tracking device.
'What was that about? Why was he trying to plant something on me?' she thought, wary.
Deciding it was best to retreat, Nicole headed back to her room with her breakfast in tow.
Upon entering, she found Jared already awake. Noting the tray in her hands, he realized she had
fetched breakfast." You could have eaten downstairs," he remarked gently.
Nicole offered a light smile. "I woke up early and wanted to explore a bit. Besides, I find having
breakfast in our room more pleasant."They settled near the couch, with Nicole placing the tray on the coffee table. Sharing a warm smile,
they began their meal.
"The food here is quite good," Nicole commented contentedly.
"This hotel is one of the most renowned in this area..." Jared started to fill her in on some details about
their location.
Nicole nodded, chiming in as Jared spoke. They wrapped up their breakfast in no time.
Nicole grinned, content. "Staying here is super convenient."
"They've got everything covered - food, a place to crash, transportation. No need to stress about a
thing," she added.
"Curious, though. How's the security around here?" Nicole asked out of the blue.
Jared squinted a bit. "Why the question?"
"Back in the restaurant..." Nicole cautiously recounted the encounter.
Jared thought it over. "Could it be someone from the Eastern Falcon?"
"That's what I was thinking," Nicole replied, a cold smile on her face. "They seem eager to make a
move."
"When we head out later, let Adolph tag along," Jared suggested, histone serious.
"Doesn't he have other stuff to do?" Nicole frowned, not wanting to disrupt their plans for her sake.Considering the man at the restaurant didn't directly attack her, she figured there might be some
hesitation, so immediate danger seemed unlikely.
But Jared insisted, "Others can handle the tasks."
After all, nothing topped the priority of keeping her safe.
"Fine," Nicole agreed, not wanting to cause Jared any extra worry.
Ready to roll, Nicole left the hotel with some papers in hand.
Adolph was already there, waiting. Spotting Nicole, he popped the car door open. "Good morning, Mrs.
Johnston."
