Always Been Yours

Chapter 627

Eventually, Janet had no choice and could only suppress the discomfort in her heart. She bit her lips as she muttered, “I was careless about the mission this time. I thought I had cornered Blood Eagle to a dead end, and he had no way to resist my attack. I didn’t expect that he would have so many tactics up his sleeves.”

Nicholas frowned as he reprimanded her, “Didn’t I teach you guys before not to underestimate the ability of any enemy even if they seemed cornered?”

Meanwhile, Janet had an entranced look as she looked at the ruthless man who overlapped with the image in her memory.

Fortunately, she promptly snapped back to her senses. Then, she lowered her eyes and said, “At that time, I just wanted to end this mission as soon as possible and didn’t think much.”

As soon as she finished saying that, she paused for a while. The disappointment in her tone earlier disappeared, and she looked at Nicholas with bright eyes. “Although I accidentally let myself fall into the trap, I think it’s worth it in exchange for your concern.”

Unfortunately, Nicholas gave her a cold look before he replied indifferently, “I did nothing. It’s the nurse who takes care of you.”

Janet felt sadness welling deep in her heart at that moment while listening to the man’s alienating words. Therefore, she bit her lower lip and insisted. “But I heard Kaiden say that you’re helping take care of me in the hospital. So, I must thank you properly when I get better.”

“That won’t be necessary. My former superior, who is also your current superior, Mr. Spurse, told me to take care of you, so I’m just doing as told.” Nicholas rejected her gratitude mercilessly.
