Nicole frowned at this point.
Jared looked at her, and his eyes’ expression turned colder. “Did he bully you?”
Nicole shook her head and looked at Jared. “I saved him before. He’s not going to think of any way to
target me at the moment, but I can’t say about you. Be careful; Sliver is a tough person to deal with.”
Jared smiled at her as he could tell that she was worried about him. “Don’t worry. I will be fine.His eyes
glinted, and he gently touched Nicole’s cheek, asking, “What happened that you fell out with him?”
Nicole looked at the handsome man and did not avoid his question. She sighed helplessly and said,
“He’s a guy who values profit very much. I went on a mission to fulfill my duty, but he was trying to
make a profit as a lackey for others. While I was still in Hutton, we had a big fight over whether we
should help the poor, and then I realized our ideas were different, and there was no way for us to go
on.”
Nicole had decisively left the organization, and Sliver did not even ask her to say, nor did he announce
she had quit. So the name ‘S’ still enjoyed fame all over the world.
Nicole was not thankful for him, but it would be a good thing if her former epithet could curb the
breeding of evil.
Jared looked at Nicole, his fingers gliding gently over her cheek, and he said slowly, “You did the right
thing.”
‘Leave the rest to me.’
Nicole looked at Jared with a faint smile on her face.
Jared smiled his tone light, with a hint of reassurance.
“I’m going out for a while, as I have something to do. Stay at the Turmann Mansion and help me keep
an eye on things.”
Jared looked extremely gentle when he saw Nicole nod. He bent down slightly, gave Nicole a peck on
the lips, and then hurried out.
Nicole looked at his back also with an extremely gentle look in her eyes. She turned her head to look
thoughtfully at her own casually sketched drawing on the table and then sat down at the table, picked
up the pen, and continued to draw undistracted.
Those who had a discerning eye would be surprised by what she drew-it was the drawing of the Dodge
Tomahawk
Something seemed to have inspired her, she was making some changes in the drawing. After a long
while, she looked at the drawing with a satisfied smile creeping across her face. “It’s done”
Just then, someone knocked on the door gently, and Nicole said, “Come in.”
Carl appeared outside the door. He looked at Nicole across from him with his lip pursed, saying nothing
for a moment.
Nicole looked at his expression and asked with bafflement. “You have something to say to me?
Carl frowned at Nicole as if he had been wronged. “You and that JJ Johnston Group guy are serious?”
he said with a not-too-happy voice.
