Chapter 133
Mr. Louis nodded and waved his hand. “Don’t worry about it too much. My class is not after grades. As
long as the students are happy, that’s fine by me. I’ve interacted with Austin and the boys before. They
are not bad boys, just slightly led astray because of lack of supervision. I have no issues with them under
me.”
When Nicole heard this, a thoughtful look flashed across her eyes. She had been a little worried that Mr.
Louis would discriminate against Austin and the others and did not expect Mr. Louis to say that at all.
“Then let me thank you on behalf of Austin.”
Mr. Louis smiled as he looked at Nicole. This proud and cold girl was well-behaved and polite. Coupled
with that paper he had studied for several days now, Mr. Louis looked at Nicole with a sense of
admiration that was difficult to put into words.
“Work hard, Nicole. I will always look after you.”
Nicole did not say anything else as she closed the office door on her way out.
She looked at the set of exercises in her hand, the glint in her eyes indiscernible.
Glancing over at her watch, Nicole realized it was already past four in the afternoon. She carried her light
schoolbag, planning to go to the café to brush up.
Inside the café, Jared and Max were seated in the guest room on the second floor. It was at the end of all
the private rooms, on the second floor, which was very secretive and had excellent sound insulation.
Max served the two sitting opposite Jared tea. Mr. Bond wiped the sweat off his head and did not dare to
take the drink. He instead stood up and spoke to Jared, “Mr. Johnston, the billion dollars from this
transaction have been transferred and received, and not a penny short. Please have a look.”
Max took the phone and confirmed the account details before nodding toward Jared.
Jared leaned against the rattan chair as he slothfully said, “What, you didn’t take a cut?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMr. Bond had always been cunning in his cooperation with the Johnston Group. However, this time
around, after Jared had returned to Hustuaburg, he did something that made Mr. Bond behave,
Hearing that, Mr. Bond said with a serious look, “How would I dare? From now on, Mr. Johnston, I will
personally check through every transaction between us. Since there’s no problem, we’ll take our leave
then,”
Jared did not stop him while Max looked on as Mr. Bond scampered away like a mouse seeing a
cat.
After contirming that those people had left the cafe, Max returned to Jared as he asked, “Mr. Johnston,
we’ve subdued the Bonds who should we target next?”
Although larut had returned home as the heir to the Johnston Group, the various companies under the
group were all over the place now. Part of it was still with his second uncle. Some others had been
gobbled up by other family members. If he wanted to take them back, he needed to take them down one
by one.
Janxi’s head ched a little as he thonght of it. As he massaged his temple, he said, “Set this matter aside
first. Have you managed to investigate the matter with Lucifer?”
Max’s expression became serious. “No… but last time, you got Claus to follow Miss Nicole, and a few
days later, it seemed like someone from Squadron was investigating us.”
“The Squadron” Jared’s gaze dimmed a little
The world’s most powerful mercenary organization, the Squadron. They were both righteous and evil,
delving into both sides of the scale. Anything that a normal organization could not complete, they would
be the ones sought after. Plus, this group did not even have a base and was hidden among the
populace. They were just simply too mysterious.
‘But I never have any involvement with Squadron before. Why are they investigating me? Could it be.’
Atlash of light appeared in Jared’s eyes, yet he was not totally convinced.
Jared looked at the Royal Creek Institute outside the window as a thin mist gradually appeared in his
eves. It was extremely cold vet also extremely elusive.
A moment later, lis gaze seemingly caught something, and the chill in his eyes immediately faded away
as an almost imperceptible warm smile appeared in its place.
Max did not miss the change in his expression and looked on quizzically as he saw nothing at
Jared gave him a cold glare. “Tidy up the place.”
He then went downstairs.
The moment Nicole stepped into the café, she saw Jared walking down. His posture was refined and
elegant, his hands tucked casually into his pockets. Even just by walking down the stairs, he looked like
he was walking down the catwalk. So much so that Nicole stopped and admired the sight for a while,
When Jared saw her holding her arms. As she looked intently at him, he felt like he was wrapped inside
that scorching gaze and became a little heated,
Seeing that he wanted to walk over, Nicole deftly walked to her seat, and Jared followed suit behind her
There were many who were discussing Jared in secret. Words about the handsome face of the cafe had
already spread across the school forum, and many had come to catch a glimpse of his
face. Yet, Jared rarely appeared before them.
Even when they ran into him occasionally, he would be seated by the entrance waiting for someone. If
they chose to get close to him at this time, his face would turn ice cold and scare away whoever wanted
to strike up a conversation with him. It seemed like he only treated Nicole special
“We have a new product today. Want to give it a try?” He asked like usual.
Nicole nodded without any hesitation. She really liked the coffee in his café, so she did not hold back
Soon, Claus brought the coffee over.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Nicole saw that the insides of the cup were white, she frowned. “Is this new product … not
coffee?”
She raised her eyes and glanced at him. Her cold, pretty face wore no expression on it, yet he could see
her disappointment.
He found more and more, that Nicole had cute moments at times. Her mind was so simple that food
could affect her mood.
When he thought of this, the smile at the corner of his lips deepened.
He motioned to Claus for him to place the dessert before Nicole. “Bon Appetit.”
Nicole rarely had desserts. However, it was rare to see a dessert made so exquisite, so she did not
refuse. Instead, she slowly cut it, selected a corner of the square, and then put it into her mouth to
carefully taste it.
The moment the dessert entered her mouth, Nicole’s eyes lit up.
This is the most traditional and classic Opera cake!
“This Opera cake has layers as thin as paper, and the coffee taste is much more neutral. It is the best
combination.”
It had to be said, the things made by Jared’s café were delicious.
She did not say anything else as she took a few more bites.
When Jared saw her revealing an elation that matched her age, the smile in his eyes was as
gentle as starlight. “You like it?”.
Nicole looked at him without hesitation. “Of course.”
She would not hide her preference when it comes to food and drinks.
Jared looked at her shining eyes, and the elation in his heart surged. He then smiled as he said, “As long
as you like it.”
