Chapter 193

“Don’t do anything to Bennett for now!”

“Hal,” the deputy manager was stunned and asked in confusion, “Mr. Jones, Bennett is already investigating Noelle’s secrets. Shall we let him…?”

Brandon shed his braid slightly and rested his chin lazily.

Seeing that the deputy manager was making such a fuss, he couldn’t help but smile and say leisurely, “Bennett is an elite genius that even the Laboratory wants. And according to the investigation, he’s currently specializing in biological brain research and development. If he can find a breakthrough research direction from Noelle, the Laboratory will benefit from it.”

“Well…” The deputy manager hesitated.

He said, “Indeed, even among the elites in the Laboratory, Bennett is still a top talent. If he investigates Noelle, he might uncover something new… However, isn’t this too risky? After all, Bennett isn’t from the Laboratory. If he exposes the secret of Noelle’s body to the outside world, it could have a severe impact on the Laboratory and violate the rules of the headquarters.”

“But he has to have a chance to publish it, right?” Brandon leaned against the back of the chair and crossed his legs.

He smiled and said, “Not to mention that Noelle is his sister, he has to consider the feelings of the Anderson family. Secondly, do you think that with his cautious personality, he would casually announce such an important thing? Unless he really reaches the last step, he can’t let outsiders know about Noelle’s existence in advance. And it is always easy for the Laboratory to get rid of Bennett…”

The deputy manager let down his guard slightly. He smiled awkwardly and said, “Mr. Jones, that makes sense. Since you’ve made up your mind, we will let go of Bennett for the time being.”

“Yes, pay close attention to Bennett. Report immediately if anything happens,” said Brandon.

“Yes, yes, I understand,” said the manager.

“If there’s nothing else, you can leave,” said Brandon.

“Okay, okay,” The deputy manager slowly left.

Brandon stayed in the office. He held the communicator that connected to Noelle in his hand. After thinking for a while, he turned it on.

On the other end, after eating with Nicolas, Noelle’s stomach was full, and she was satisfied.

Nicolas prepared to send Noelle back to school.

After Noelle got into the car, she hugged his belly and sighed. “Nick Tempura is really delicious. The food was fantastic!”

Nicolas smiled and pinched her soft, pudding-like face. “If you like it, I’ll bring you here again next time.”

“Really!” Noelle’s eyes lit up. She smiled at Nicolas and said, “Then it’s a deal! I want to eat a lot more next time!”

“As much as you want,” Nicolas glanced at Noelle’s round stomach. She ate a lot. He found her cute when her tummy was full. It made him want to touch…

And he did.

“Eh?” Noelle looked down and saw Nicolas’s broad palm on her stomach.

She blinked and looked up at him.

Nicolas teased, “People might think that you’re pregnant with my child.”

“Pregnant with your child?” Noelle thought for a moment. “If I want to have a child, we have to… Is Nick thinking about…?”

Noelle covered her mouth and sniggered, revealing a naughty expression, and said, “I know, you must be thinking about something now. You are so naughty!”

Nicolas was lost for words, Baby. Come on!

At this moment, the necklace around Noelle’s neck suddenly lit up.

Because the two of them were very close, Nicolas noticed that the necklace seemed to flicker with blue light.

Chapter

“Elly bae, your neck…”

Before Nicolas could say anything, Noelle suddenly exclaimed and interrupted Nicolas.

Then, she said to Bryan, “Bryan, please stop the car!”

Bryan was stunned. Parking was not allowed in this place.

Bryan immediately glanced at Nicolas through the rearview mirror. Nicolas acquiesced.

The car stopped by the roadside. Noelle quickly opened the door and said to Nicolas, “Nick, my stomach hurts a little. I need to use the toilet. I’ll be back soon. Don’t follow me!”

Nicolas looked away from the necklace on Noelle’s neck and smiled. “Go, I’ll wait for you here.”

Noelle said, “Okay!” As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared with a swoosh.

Seeing Noelle’s speed, Bryan couldn’t help but sigh. “Mr. Sawyer, Miss Anderson’s speed is really amazing. She will definitely get a medal in the Olympics.”

Nicolas’s gaze was still fixed on the place where Noelle disappeared.

The corners of his lips curled up slightly as he said leisurely, “Just a medal? Then you underestimate her.”

“Huh?” Bryan was confused. “Have I underestimated Miss Anderson?”

Seeing that Nicolas had no intention of continuing the conversation, Bryan didn’t continue asking.

Even if Bryan did not know anything now, he could more or less sense that Noelle was different from ordinary people.

Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t ask. Curiosity killed the cat, he told himself.

Noelle ran into the jungle.

She looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, she took out the necklace from her neck and asked, “Who is it?”

Brandon chuckled and asked, “Noelle, who else do you think will contact you?”

“Brand!” Knowing that it was Brandon on the other side, Noelle immediately complained. “Why did you suddenly contact me! Nick was beside me just now. He probably saw the necklace on my neck flash!”

“Don’t worry.” Brandon smiled indifferently and said, “He is very shrewd. If you don’t want to tell him, he won’t ask you.”

After Noelle heard this, she sighed and said, “That’s true.”

Nick was the most understanding. He never forced her to do anything.

In the next second, Brandon changed the topic. He said with a smile in a very casual tone, “Besides, if he really keeps asking or tries to investigate the secret behind the necklace, you can kill him.”
