Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 343 Weary

Richard knew what Julia wanted to say. Looking at her with a faint smile on his face, he reached out to caress her face and murmured, “Don’t worry. Colton is just taking her to get some rest. He won’t do anything to her.”

Left with no choice, she could only watch as Colton carried Nicole away. There was something that she wanted to utter, but she hesitated for a while. Eventually, she swallowed back the words on the tip of her tongue.

In the meantime, Richard seemed to have sensed Julia’s hesitation. Trying to enlighten her more, he smiled and added, “It’s honestly nothing to be worried about. Colton understands that Nicole is currently the key person to saving Old Mr. Benedict, so he knows what he’s doing. I’m sure he won’t do anything crazy to her at such a critical moment.”

It was at the moment after listening to Richard’s words when Julia realized Colton had already found out about Nicole’s identity as White’s protégé.

Restraining the worried expression on her face, she looked at Richard. Then, she showed her disgruntlement toward Richard by wrinkling her face. Then, with a melancholy tone in her voice, she asked, “So you’re the one who brought him here to my place?”

Once Richard noticed that Julia was unhappy, he hurriedly explained, “He’s Colton Gardner, a significant member of the Gardner Family. Do you really think he needs my help in locating this place? It’s as easy as ABC for him to find this place. I’m just tagging along because I feared you might feel bored all by yourself.”
