Nicole pulled her hand back, not batting an eye. She watched as Jared turned on a switch in the cabin,
and soon a warm, cozy light filled the cabin.
Jared looked at her with a fleeting, pained expression on his face. “Are you tired these days?” he asked
in a soft voice.
Nicole was puzzled why he asked such a question. But thinking about how long she had slept, he might
be thinking that she had not had enough rest before this.
“I’m alright. Where is Zeke?”
There was a fleeting troubled look in his eyes when Jared heard the name.
“You mean the boy with you?” he asked faintly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNicole realized she had not introduced the two of them to each other, but there did not seem to be any
need for that. She nodded her head gently, looking at Jared’s eyes as if she could see right through
inside.
“He should be next door. I’m not so sure.” Jared smiled, hiding the troubling thought in his
eyes.
Nicole suspected nothing. She just nodded and waited quietly for the plane to land.
Jared smiled again when he saw her reaction. He was not evasive when he took out a special
communication device and said to the other person at the other end, “Come to San Joto Airport to pick
up your son.”
The person at the other end seemed to have said something back, and then Jared put down the device
and sat saying nothing. Nicole looked over at him and found that he was looking at her with a
thoughtful look
“Are you and Zeke close to each other?” he finally asked.
Nicole shook her head, She and Zeke had been working together online for several years, but they did
not know each other very well in person.
Jared said nothing further. As the plane landed, he stood up and smiled at Nicole. “Let’s go,” he said
Nicole nodded and stood up. Zeke next door had come over and was about to call out her code name,
which was Lucifer. But when he also saw Jared there, he immediately corrected himself, “Nicole, I have
a huge discovery!” He then tried to say something with great interest, but then he saw Jared’s half
smile and shut up immediately as he decided to tell Nicole about his discovery in private. He did not
want the man who threatened him to hear it. He would just play with his so-called top-of-the-line
computer,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith this in mind, Zeke snorted at Jared and disembarked.
Nicole saw this and cocked an eyebrow, then looked back at Jared.
Jared got the hint and made an innocent face. “I did nothing to him. You saw it,” he said, almost in a
whisper.
Nicole looked away, and the two walked side by side, following Zeke from behind.
As they walked toward the cabin exit, all the flight attendants bowed respectfully to Jared. The
Mecrounian captain and co-pilot, who were much taller and standing on either side of the exit, made
Zeke, who was walking in front, look considerably shorter. They bowed with respect when they saw
Jared come over, but the fleeting contemptuous look in their eyes toward her did not escape Nicole’s
keen eye.
Nicole glanced at them nonchalantly. Zeke was dashing out of the cabin with excitement, as he was too
eager to retum to his homeland. But to his surprise, he was litted off the ground as soon as he left the
plane.
Zeke saw two muscular men, one on his left and the other on his right, carrying him he cried out to
Nicole, “Help me!”
