Chapter 1555
Mr, Guzman Sr. nodded for the first time. 'Yeah, I almost got into trouble this time.'
Meanwhile, Zeke had already been dragged out by Nicole.
"H-hey... let go of me, Nicole..." Zeke pleaded.
Nicole only released him when they were outside.
Then, she crossed her arms and asked him, "Why didn't you tell your family about what you did? Why did you drag
me into it?"
Zeke lowered his shoulders. "I... wanted to hide it from them, but I didn't expect my grandpa would know."
"Idiot." Nicole rolled her eyes.

said.
Zeke nodded. "I know, but you've seen my grandpa's attitude. If I told him, I might actually get beaten to death."
His grandfather really treasured the Fire Crest, and that was why he almost crossed her when he did not know who
she was.
Nicole eyed Zeke with a look of defeat. "Forget it. Consider us even because you've given me the Fire Crest."
"Yeah... Thank you!" Zeke, who found the exchange worth it, laughed.
Nicole looked at the time and said, "It's noontime now. Is there anything good nearby? I'm hungry."
She planned to head home after her lunch as she wanted to get ready for school.
"You're hungry? I'll buy you lunch! Come on, I'll bring you somewhere amazing!" Zeke said, as he would grab every
opportunity to treat Nicole to a meal.
Nicole frowned and replied, "I don't need you to treat me."
"Come on, you saved my father twice. I have to treat you to something, so let's go," he insisted.
Nicole could tell that that he was sincere, so she followed him.
Zeke then asked his driver to use a regular vehicle. Together, they left the area and arrived at a simple French
restaurant.
The food here is great. I love this place, so please give it a try," Zeke mused.
"Okay." Nicole nodded and began to observe her surroundings. The restaurant had a gothic theme, which was a
rarity in the central business district. This was something that could only be found near the military region.
Soon, the food Zeke ordered was served. There were not many people around, so Zeke helped Nicole with the

Is that true?"
His grandfather and had probably known about the Fire Crest, and that was why they did not leave the house last
night or attend the banquet.
If his grandfather had not told him about it, he would not have known a thing.
"Yeah, I guess," she said.
"Why? Isn't it better to hide your identity? Your family will be in danger." Zeke foolishly asked.
Nicole recalled Jared's words and looked at Zeke.
'As expected, not everyone has Jared's depth of insight,' she wondered.
Then, she explained, "Well, even if I don't expose myself, those people would still find me one way or another. It'd
be a problem for me if that happens, as they will have an advantage against us. However, now that we've
contacted almost everyone who could help us, people would have to think twice about hurting us, especially with
my identity being made known to the public."
