Claus looked at Gary, who was a little surprised, and the look on his face was even more surprised
than Gary's.
"Don't you like Nicole? Don't you even know how badass Nicole's skills are?"
He learned from Jared that Nicole had helped Rowan and others solve a problem that an entire bunch
of top hackers could not solve, and Gary did not know about it.He looked at Gary and studied him with
a meaningful smile.
"It seems like you don't like Nicole enough."
Gary clenched his fists and looked at Claus with frosty eyes.
"I don't like Nicole." He picked up what he had in his hand and was about to get up and walk outside.
Claus looked at the shirt on the seat signed with Nicole's name and spread his hands helplessly.
"You don't like Nicole? So what's the matter with Nicole's autograph here? Kid, don't lie to yourself.Girls
won't like you."
As if he was playing the role of a teacher, Claus sat down in front of Gary and started to explain the
facts of life to him.
At last, after admiring enough of Gary's fed-up face, he added by saying, "So, you won't be able to get
hold of a girl like Nicole who is beautiful, powerful, and smart."
Just as Claus got up and wanted to leave, Gary mumbled behind him, saying, "So, is Nicole Lucifer?"
Nicole's seemingly untraceable background, the school's tampered surveillance footage, the obvious
autograph, and the S that Nicole subconsciously wrote, and Claus's mockery—as if everything was
pointing to the ultimate fact.
Claus turned to wink at Gary.
"Take a guess."
Then he slowly returned to the bar counter and continued playing with coffee cups.
Gary was left sitting there thinking to himself.
A moment later, he got up and walked outside, not forgetting to take the shirt with him.
Claus looked on and wiped the cold sweat from his face as Gary went.
'I almost accidentally divulged Nicole's identity.Boss will kill me if he finds out"
On the other side, Nicole did not know what to do as Lloyd kept following her.He followed her all the
way and said nothing, as if he just wanted to look at her.
"What exactly do you want?" Nicole asked.
As Lloyd followed her so openly with everyone recognizing him as the movie star, it became an
annoyance for her.
Lloyd could tell the distantness in her voice, and he looked at Nicole with a faint sense of innocence in
his eyes.
"I didn't do anything."
Then, his eyes lit up with a gentle look of cunningness.
"But if you will, tell me where you're going, will you?"
There seemed to be no compulsion.
Nicole looked at him with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.
Somehow, she felt Lloyd was very similar to Harvey in some ways.He had the same paranoia, endless
desire to control, but in some aspects, he was much gentler, like a boiled frog in warm water, silent and
suffocating.
Lloyd knew the limit.
Nicole looked at him.
