Chapter 2987Chapter 2987
After finishing their meal, Nicole and Jared, hand in hand, left the eatery, heading back to their
hotel.
Along the way, the man who had been watching them did not follow.
Nicole, puzzled, murmured, "What does he really want?"
Jared, holding her soft hand, glanced at Nicole and said," Well find out soon."
Blinking, Nicole realized, "You've had someone keeping an eye on him."
Jared's voice carried a hint of coldness, "Since he's deliberately getting close to you, he must
have a purpose."
He was not about to take this lightly, alert to even the slightest hint or clue.
Feeling a sense of warmth, Nicole slightly smiled. "Then let's wait for the results."
She too was suspicious of the man but didn't want to investigate just yet, preferring to observe more.
Perhaps he would reveal his true intentions soon.
Jared's direct and straightforward approach was effective.
Upon entering their hotel room, it wasn't long before someone knocked on their door.
Opening it, they were greeted by Adolph, who addressed
them respectfully, "Good afternoon, Mr. Johnston, Mrs. Johnston."
"Did you find out?" Nicole asked directly."Yes," Adolph replied, pulling out a small button-like device from his pocket.
Nicole recognized it instantly and frowned, "That's what he was planning to plant on me."
"Correct," Adolph explained. "It's a location tracker that also responds to the surrounding environment. I
believe they planned to make their move when you were alone."
"How did you get it?" Nicole asked, her voice tinged with a hint of coldness.
Indeed, it was the little button' she had noticed earlier, now revealing its more sinister capabilities.
Adolph, understanding Nicole's concern, reassured her," Don't worry. Even if he realizes it's missing, he
won't suspect us."
He had cleverly used local troublemakers for the retrieval, ensuring no direct link to them could be
established.
Nicole nodded, satisfied with Adolph's thorough planning. This way, they wouldn't alert their opponent
and give away that they were onto him.
"It's clear what they're after," Adolph explained. "They probably know some of our moves and didn't
dare approach directly."
Nicole's eyes narrowed slightly; her expression changed slightly. "They want me alone, so well give
them that opportunity."
"Are you planning to use yourself as bait?" Adolph was concerned about the danger.
Nicole nodded firmly, "That's precisely why I came here."She had left San Joto with two objectives in mind, having already accomplished one. It was time
to tackle the second.
Adolph looked to Jared, seeking his decision.
Jared's eyes held a frosty determination. "If everything is ready, let's proceed."
They hadn't planned on staying here long, so resolving this matter quickly was crucial.
As they were speaking, another knock came at the door.
Jared and Nicole exchanged a glance before instructing Adolph, "Open the door."
"Right away," Adolph responded, moving to greet their unexpected visitor.
As the door opened, a familiar voice rang out, "So you're here after all."novelbin
