Chapter 648 Bad Move

Nicholas responded indifferently. It was as if he didn’t want to talk about this topic. He changed the

topic of conversation instead. “Do you have any major tasks this time around? It’s rare to see you being

the one who takes charge personally.”

Cole did not bother to hide anything since Nicholas had once been the most promising member of his

team. “I came back this time to protect a witness. This person is of great importance, so I have to be

here in person,” he uttered.

Nicholas nodded but didn’t ask any more questions. After a while, the waiter began to serve their

dishes, and the three of them chatted while eating. At the table, Janet looked at Nicholas, who was still

very cold to her. She gritted her teeth before she asked Cole a question. “Cole, I previously mentioned

that I wanted to return to the team. What do you think of that?”

Cole frowned and responded solemnly. “Your wound has not healed yet, and your injuries are in such a

fatal spot. I want you to still focus on recovery as I don’t want you to have any complications in the

future.”

“If I continue to rest, I may reach the limit of vacations I’m allowed to take in a year, and I would have to

continue to trouble Nicholas. Alternatively, why don’t I return to the dormitory to recuperate first? I don’t

have to return to the army immediately.” Janet deliberately put on an awkward expression.

Cole squinted slightly and looked at Nicholas. However, Nicholas sat still in his spot without revealing

any emotion on his face. Cole thought about the situation for a while. “If you are on vacation, then you

have nothing to worry about, right? I have already approved your leave, so you can rest until your injury

is healed. I don’t think it’s a good idea to return to the dormitory yet. Your previous identity was

exposed, and the remaining problems have not been dealt with, so we may need more time.”

After he said his piece, he turned his head to look at Nicholas. “I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you with

Janet for a while more, Nicholas. I can let her go back once I’m done dealing with these matters,” Cole

declared firmly.

“It’s okay.” After Nicholas finished speaking, he glanced at Janet coldly. His eyes were threatening,

dark, and a little scary. What Janet said just now had made her seem like she was anxious to return to

the team, but in fact, she was hinting at Cole. She was trying to make it sound as if Nicholas hadn’t

been very welcoming to her.

His expression darkened slightly. If it weren’t for the sake of Cole, he wouldn’t want to pay attention to

this woman at all. “I won’t find it troublesome. As long as she stops going all over the place, then her

wounds should be able to recover faster,” Nicholas uttered. Cole was shrewd, and he immediately

understood the meaning behind Nicholas’ words.

Obviously, whatever Janet had done during the recuperation period made Nicholas unhappy. After all,

Cole knew his disciple well—as long as one didn’t challenge Nicholas’ principles, he wouldn’t care

about anything else. So, with a warning gaze and tone, he stared at Janet. “Take good care of your

illness, and don’t cause trouble to Nicholas. You will have nowhere else to go otherwise.”

“Got it.” Janet nodded and agreed, but deep down, she immediately regretted her actions. She knew

very well that she had just made a wrong move. Especially the way Nicholas looked at me just now…

He must hate me now.

For a while, Janet felt really uncomfortable. Clearly, this wasn’t the result she wanted. But no matter

how much she regretted it, the meal had to go on. Fortunately, Cole managed to mediate the situation

a little, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious afterward. After dinner, the three of them walked out

of the restaurant. “Where are you staying, Cole? I’ll send you back first.”

“No, I’ve been busy with some business since I got off the plane, and I haven’t settled down yet. Why

don’t you introduce to me a more secluded hotel with high security? I’ll stay there for one night,” Cole

voiced.

“Hotels are dangerous no matter how good they are. I have a condominium here, so you should live

there.” After Nicholas finished speaking, he briefly explained the situation in his condominium. This

condominium, both in terms of location and safety, was very in line with Cole’s accommodation

requirements.

Cole did not refuse Nicholas’ offer in the end—he followed Nicholas to the apartment. “It seems like

Janet’s not the only one who’s troubling you. I’ll need you to watch after me as well, Nicholas,” Cole

said in embarrassment.

“No worries.” They were on the way to the condominium when Cole thanked Nicholas. Nicholas didn’t

seem too bothered as it only took him a little effort, after all.
