Chapter 1647
When they had walked into the restaurant, they noticed that it was rather empty. There, Nicole immediately knew
that it was not easy to get a table at this restaurant.
Forthat reason, Lloyd proudly brought Nicole over to a table.
The waiter came over to hand them the menu thereafter, and Nicole casually took a look at it before asking, "Your
family owns this place, right?"
'If that's not the case, why would everyone be gone as soon as Lloyd is here?' she wondered.
Lloyd arched his brows, but he did not deny it. "Yeah, you can come as you wish. There is a private room upstairs,
but the view here is better."
Then, he gestured for Nicole to look out.
Though that place was secluded, it was still located at a much higher plane, allowing them to get a view of the sea.
They could also see the forest, whose green contrasted beautifully with the ocean's blue.

that restaurant.
Hearing that, Lloyd became a little shy. "Really? Well, as long as you like it."
Then, Nicole nodded and proceeded to order a few delicious items from the menu, while Lloyd ordered a number
of signature dishes as well. "I think you'd like these."
Without taking his words to heart, Nicole flashed him a courteous smile.
After that, Lloyd looked at Nicole and lamented, "I didn't expect that we could have a chance to eat together like
this, without the team."
Nicole took a deep breath in. "Yeah, me neither."
She had never thought that she would be a daughter of the Riddle Family, who had a history with the Holder family
too. That was why she had never thought that she would meet Lloyd again.
"This shows that we're fated to meet again." Lloyd stared at Nicole and harkened back to the training he had gone
through and the times in which they went on missions together.
Back then, they were still young people who worked with Zane and the adults. Still, Nicole's performance was
outstanding, and she had helped him a lot. However, what he did not know was... Nicole was the little girl who had
saved him that year.
Nicole noted his deep gaze. She did not know what he was thinking, so she did not keep the conversation going.
Soon, the waiter served them their food.
With style, Lloyd scooped some dishes up for Nicole. "Try some, I like these."
Nicole nodded and that was when she saw a type of cookie.
They were in a French restaurant, so that cookie was very out of place, but she found it to be oddly familiar, almost
as if she used to eat it when she was younger.
When Lloyd saw Nicole looking at the cookie in confusion, he playfully asked, "Familiar, isn't it? You ate this when
you were younger, right?"
Nicole was shocked.
She really did enjoy that cookie when she was younger.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Nicole had only met Lloyd in the organization, and the cookie was not sold in the foreign country that they
were deployed to. Therefore, Lloyd would not be able to know if Nicole liked that cookie.
That was when her mind clicked as she asked, "You liked this when you were younger too?"
Lloyd paused for a moment before smiling. "Yeah, I loved it. I still love it though, that's why I added it to the menu."
"Oh." Nicole believed him.
But Lloyd seemed sad. 'She had really forgotten everything, just as I had expected.'
She was bringing these cookies around with her when Lloyd first met her, and she had given them to him, who had
been starving for days. That was why he would always remembered the taste of it and would still eat the cookies
that she would give him.
Unfortunately, she had forgotten it herself. It was as if she had not been eating it for years as well.
Though Lloyd was disappointed, he was happy when he saw how satisfied Nicole looked when she ate the cookie.
"How is it?" he asked. "Does it still taste the same?"
Nicole chuckled. "Yeah, I miss it a lot. It's been a long time since I ate one of these."
"Take some away with you if you like it." Lloyd smiled sincerely.
"Sure." Nicole accepted, as she really did like the cookie.
Lloyd stared at Nicole deeply, enjoying the moment that they were sharing.
However, it was then that a voice was heard at the entrance of the restaurant. "Sorry, no entry."
