Chapter 1462 Running Into Zachary

Nicole observed Chloe meticulously scrutinizing the ingredients, her lips murmuring her apprehensions about

Nicole's health.

"Relax, they're all suitable for pregnant mothers. I've verified it beforehand," Nicole placated her with a serene

smile.

Chloe, too, found one of the ingredients to be harmless, which assuaged her anxiety.

"Alright, with you looking so beautiful today, Nicole, have you decided on where to eat?" Chloe inquired, a smile

gracing her face as she leisurely settled next to Nicole, her gaze riveted on Nicole's profile.

She had always been mesmerized by Nicole's talent, momentarily forgetting that Nicole was also a striking beauty.

"I do have something in mind, but Chloe, are you fond of the local barbecue?" Nicole queried as she picked up her

phone, located the restaurant's page, and handed it to Chloe. "This is the place. Have a look. If it's not to your liking,

we can opt for another."

Chloe glanced at the page and nodded without a second thought. "I like it. But Nicole, considering your

pregnancy…"

She was still apprehensive about Nicole's pregnancy. Barbecue might not be the best choice for the baby.

"It's alright. I'll simply request everything to be well-cooked," Nicole dismissed her worries. She had been

contemplating treating Chloe to a lavish meal for some time, and this seemed like the perfect occasion.

With that in mind, Nicole slowly rose, one hand on her belly and the other on her waist, and gently suggested, "Shall

we?"

Seeing Nicole's resolve, Chloe nodded in concurrence. If Nicole desired to eat, they would proceed. They just

needed to exercise caution.

They strolled to the door, slipped on their shoes, and were about to depart when…

"Nicole?" Zachary was astonished to see Nicole, her name inadvertently escaping his lips.

Hearing her name, Nicole swiveled around and was mildly surprised to see Zachary. "What brings you here? I

assumed you had left for Monterey?" she inquired, steadying herself.

Zachary smiled lightly at her reaction, knowing that Nicole's condition hadn't changed. He walked over to Nicole,

nodding toward Chloe, who was with her. "I have some business to attend to. What are you two up to?"

"We're heading out for a meal," Nicole responded reflexively. She glanced at Zachary, and an idea sparked in her

mind. "Would you care to join us? I've been meaning to express my gratitude for your assistance back home. This

seems like an opportune moment."

Chloe chimed in, "Indeed, that would be wonderful."

Seeing their eagerness, Zachary gestured toward his suitcase and proposed, "How about this? You two proceed and

text me the address. I'll join you subsequently."

Only then did Nicole notice the suitcase beside Zachary. She nodded, comprehending his predicament. "Alright, I'll

text you the address later."

"Excellent, see you shortly," Zachary nodded, picked up his suitcase, and departed.

Watching Zachary's receding figure, Nicole suddenly realized that they seemed to reside in the same vicinity.

Their neighborhood was a hub for the affluent, and they were unfamiliar with anyone there. Now, it appeared they

had a familiar face.

"It's comforting to have someone we know in the same vicinity," Chloe also noticed the direction Zachary had

departed in. She assisted Nicole to the roadside and hailed a cab.

"We can't always depend on Zachary. There are certain matters he shouldn't be privy to. The fewer the people who

are aware, the safer for us," Nicole voiced as she gingerly climbed into the car. She glanced at the driver, and both

women lapsed into silence, comprehending each other's thoughts.

Chloe provided the driver with the destination, and he set the car in motion.
