Chapter 1338 Having a Meal Together

Upon seeing Nicole's surprised expression, Kendrick understood why she was surprised.

He couldn't blame her for being surprised. Someone like him wouldn't normally come to a place like this to eat, but

he just happened to see a familiar figure passing by earlier.

Initially, he thought he was mistaken, but he didn't want to take the chance, so he stopped the car. That was when

he realized he hadn't been mistaken—the person inside was indeed Nicole. So, he came in.

"Miss Anderson, I saw you outside. I thought I might have been mistaken, but I didn't expect to actually find you

here."

Kendrick offered a polite smile.

Nicole felt a bit awkward. After all, they hadn't reached the point of being so familiar yet. However, since they were

going to be partners, it was only natural to greet each other. "What a coincidence indeed," she said as she stood

up.

Even when she stood up, she could barely reach his shoulder.

Only then did she realize he was surprisingly tall. He should be about the same height as Colton.

Nicole silently thought about it and suddenly realized that she was overthinking things. Why was she thinking about

that? She quickly shook her head and forced herself to forget about Colton.

"Miss Anderson, if you don't mind, how about we have a meal together?"

At the sight of Nicole's odd expression, Kendrick pretended not to notice and suggested instead.

Nicole was taken aback by the proposal. She was about to refuse when he preemptively interrupted her.

"Consider it an opportunity to discuss the details of our collaboration. The proposal you gave me earlier was rather

simple. We should discuss it in more detail since it would be better for all parties."

Kendrick saw that Nicole was about to speak, so he spoke first.

She hesitated and glanced at Chloe beside her, wanting to get Chloe's opinion.

When Chloe saw Kendrick beside them, she understood that he must have come alone today. She nodded

discreetly.

After seeing this, Nicole smiled at Kendrick and replied, "Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Hofstead."

Before her words even finished, Kendrick had gone to the front desk to settle the bill for Nicole's meal.

"Mr. Hofstead, I should be the one paying for this meal. After all, we ordered the meals. It's not appropriate for you

to pay."

Nicole quickly stopped Kendrick and handed the money over.

Kendrick blinked while looking at the petite figure in front of him. His thoughts momentarily went back to his

childhood.

Back then, she used to protect him like this.

Upon seeing that Kendrick didn't insist on paying, Nicole felt relieved, which made her feel better.

"Now that the bill is settled, you and this young lady can follow me."

He noticed Nicole's relaxed expression and his lips curved slightly. After speaking, he turned and left, as if leading

the two of them.

Nicole and Chloe followed him.

However, Chloe seemed a bit off. Her gaze was heavy as she looked in the direction Kendrick had left. Did Kendrick

know Nicole? If not, could it be that she had misread that look just now?

Nicole noticed that Chloe had slowed down her pace. She turned around and looked at Chloe while saying, "Chloe,

come on."

Chloe snapped out of her daze. Just as Nicole turned around to call her, Kendrick also turned his head to look at her.

The smile on his face made her a bit uneasy.

Who exactly was this man?

When she was researching information, she found that someone as mysterious as him often concealed great harm.

Nicole and Chloe sat in the backseat. Kendrick initially intended for Nicole to sit in the front, but she politely

declined.

Upon seeing this, Kendrick didn't insist. As a result, they ended up in their current seating arrangement. Fortunately,

it was comfortable and not as awkward as Nicole had imagined.

Chloe tightly gripped Nicole's sleeve as she was afraid that Nicole would run away.
