Chapter 1348 Suspicion

The message from Wendy read, 'Nicole, Colton's ditching the trip to Monterey. He's staying here and won't let me

go out. If I want to go somewhere, I must go with him, and he won't let me go anywhere else. I won't be able to see

you anymore.'

Nicole ignored the last part of the message while analyzing the first part of it with a serious countenance. If he's

staying here, it means he can't easily change locations because the enemy is watching him closely. It wouldn't be

difficult to shift the work from there to here; in fact, it'd be easier than throwing dust in the eyes of those spies. But

why won't he let Wendy go out?

Seeing Nicole's distracted demeanor, Chloe knew that she wouldn't focus on eating for a while. She quickly piled up

some food on Nicole's plate so that she could eat them later. "Nicole, will you just take your mind off him for once?

You've got to eat."

Wait, something must be wrong here. This leaves only one possibility. Nicole's expression suddenly turned fearful.

This would mean that the enemy has obtained Wendy's personal information. If they're driven to desperation, they

might abduct her to blackmail Colton. Her brow furrowed at this realization. If that's the case, they've perfectly

demonstrated what it means to be ruthless.

When she saw that Nicole didn't seem right, Chloe, being sharp as she was, instantly understood the importance of

the situation. "Nicole, did something happen?"

Nicole shook her head. "It's alright. For now, there's no immediate danger as long as we handle things properly."

She understood Colton's reasons for doing this. The enemy behind the scenes might have no intention of harming

Wendy at the moment, so it's safer for her to stay abroad. However, if Wendy were to be sent back home, Ryan

surely wouldn't let her off easily. As for the rest of the Gardner Family, Colton needn't worry about them. Ryan's

main focus is on seizing the company, so he would channel all his energy into finding vulnerabilities within it.

After reaching this conclusion, she entered a few words on her phone and placed it aside before starting to eat.

"Let's keep eating."

However, it was apparent that she was no longer as relaxed as she had been at first.

Chloe detected the gravity in her expression. Unable to do much else, she kept piling food onto Nicole's plate,

hoping to get her to eat more.

After pondering for a moment, she suddenly said, "Nicole, let's make the arrangements for the medical base as

soon as possible. Also, I've coordinated with Roxanna today, and some of the researchers will arrive tomorrow."

Perhaps talking about the medical base is the only way to put her mind at ease now.

Just as she expected, Nicole's expression visibly brightened when she heard about the medical base. She looked up

at Chloe happily, saying, "After they arrive, let them rest for a day and get them to start working the next day.

We've got to hurry."

"Okay," replied Chloe with a serious nod, her hand busily picking up food for Nicole.

Nicole didn't seem to notice this, though. She was busy digging into her food, completely oblivious to the fact that

Chloe was constantly adding food to her plate. In her mind, she thought she had picked up those dishes on her own.

"It's a relief that we've got technical support for our facility, so things aren't so difficult at the beginning," she said.

Thinking of this, she felt quite relieved. Despite losing a lot of resources to somebody's greed earlier, the strategic

decisions paid off in the later stages, allowing them to recoup a lot of money. And besides, they had made

significant breakthroughs in technology, and things were starting to look up.

"That's right, Nicole. You've got to eat more. Just leave Colton to his younger sister. She seems like an oblivious

young lady, but she's surprisingly resilient, actually," Chloe immediately responded before mentioning Colton. She

knew that the present Colton was no longer a taboo like before.

Nicole had already opened up to them, and this made all of them very happy.
