Chapter 1893
Jared saw his work of art on her neck and that was when he became satisfied, so he let her go.
Nicole was furious. "Jerk!"
She did not fight back because she did not want to put any strain on her abdomen, but Jared still left her with two
hickeys nonetheless.
"If you come up with crazy ideas like this again, I won’t go easy on you." Jared then quickly got down from the bed.
Above anything, he was worried that he would act on his impulses again.
Nicole noticed something as she watched Jared strutting off to take a shower. 'How is this man so energetic?'
She sighed and went off to freshen up as well.
Then, the both of them shared breakfast together in front of a floor-to-ceiling window.
While they were thinking about when they would receive updates from Lawrence, Jared's phone rang.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mr. Johnston, I've sent you what you've asked for. Check your phone."
Delighted to hear that, Jared said, "Okay, thanks."
Lawrence nodded. My pleasure. But you don't have much time. They seem to be rather cautious around my people.
Starting from now, you only have five hours... to retrieve what's yours."
Jared's expression darkened as he looked at his watch." That's good enough."
Lawrence was not surprised to see how assured Jared was. He knew that Jared was a figure of great power and
significance. He was also close to being the richest man on earth.
Above all, Jared was not afraid of shady businesses like this.
'How powerful is he...?' Lawrence wondered.
"I have one more request." Jared continued with a frown," For these five hours, no one in Ramania can get in my
way. Judging by the influence you have in these parts, you should be able to do it for me, shouldn't you, Lawrence?"
Lawrence did not expect Jared to come off so strong.
His expression changed. Though it was not an easy task, he still agreed to help Jared nonetheless.
"Sure." He took a deep breath. "I can also protect you and Mrs. Johnston. My men are probably on the way to pick
you up. They'll take you there themselves."
Jared frowned as he did not expect Lawrence to send his men out to help them. He totally did not see this coming.
However, he was rather uncomfortable with the notion of Lawrence being so proactive..
Still, he smiled and said, "Thanks."
With all things said, Jared was in someone else's country. Though he had already enlisted Janus to bring some men
over, it was always better to have more allies.
"No worries. Take care." Lawrence hung up, not continuing the conversation anymore.
Jared looked at his phone, his eyes stern and serious, after their call had ended.
Seeing that, Nicole asked, "What happened?"
"Lawrence found their exact coordinates,” he replied.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJared's men had managed to track the people who stole the Al system down, but their findings only led them to the
suburbs outside of the capital. Thus, Lawrence was still needed to provide them the exact coordinates of the
location.
"He has even sent his men over to work with us," Jared added with a look of worry on his face..
Nicole was confused when she heard that too. "We're not close friends of his. Even if he's doing this for his own
gain, providing us with the coordinates is good enough already. Why send his crew over to help us?"
This was crazy.
Jared took a deep breath in. "Well, it's already happening, so let's just wait and see."
Nicole nodded. "Okay."
Then, Jared's doorbell rang after some time.
He opened the door to see Janus's men standing before him. "Mr. Johnston. Our special forces are here."
Nicole had met Janus before, so she knew that he was Jared's right-hand man. But she was not aware that Jared
had a unit of special force soldiers serving him.
