Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1382 You’ve Changed

"Has it been busy at the research center lately? It seems like the reports have fewer details than they did a couple of days ago." Nicole's sudden question caught Chloe off guard.

The two of them walked along the dimly lit street on their way back home. As the pedestrians gradually dwindled, only they remained, illuminated by faint lights.

Chloe stiffened at Nicole's question. However, Chloe quickly realized her response and decided to explain. "A bit. It's a critical period. Did I not include all the details in the reports?"

She even threw a question back at Nicole.

Nicole couldn't help but click her tongue. Chloe was too clever for her own good; there was no way to trick her into saying anything.

Sighing silently, Nicole lamented the fact that she had no choice but to continue training Chloe since she had started in the first place.

"I think they were included, but I've forgotten. Your mentioning it just now helped jog my memory a bit." Nicole coughed lightly, pretending to respond seriously.


Suppressing a smile, Chloe continued their unspoken agreement not to reveal each other's secrets. It was a shared understanding between the two.

However, Chloe had no intention of telling Nicole about the man. He was too mysterious, and he knew so much about Nicole and Colton. His origins needed to be investigated. Her face turned serious when she thought of this.

With her attention focused on the way home, Nicole didn't want to continue dwelling on Chloe's late return. If Chloe wanted to tell her, Nicole believed she would do so without her having to repeatedly inquire.

Thus, the two returned home, each with their own secrets.

"Nicole, you should drink more warm water. You must be freezing. You should also take a shower. By the way, tomorrow is my day off."

As soon as they arrived home, Chloe's mouth started running.

Nicole suddenly questioned her earlier impression of Chloe. She had always thought of Chloe as someone quiet and efficient, but now...

She watched Chloe bustling around, her skepticism growing. Was this really the Chloe she knew? Chloe seemed even more cheerful than when they first met.

"Nicole, why are you looking at me like that?" Chloe was puzzled as she approached Nicole with a cup of warm water, noticing that Nicole's expression seemed off.

Is it really so easy for my inner thoughts to be exposed? Has Nicole already picked up on some clues?

Chloe placed the cup of warm water in front of Nicole, still waiting for her answer. But Nicole didn't reply immediately; she simply stared at Chloe. This made Chloe feel uneasy.
