Chapter 1412
After he had finished his sentence, Harvey walked out of the ward.
Nicole, sensing that she had upset Harvey with her curt remarks, immediately called out to him.
"Harvey."
Harvey whirled around and looked at Nicole. "What's the matter?"
"Can you bring me a bowl of soup from the Blue Whale Cafe the next time you visit us?" Nicole said in a somewhat bashful way.
A surge of warmth kindled Harvey's heart, and a smile crossed his face as he agreed. "No problem."
And after he had said that, he left the ward.
Once Harvey had left, Nicole looked at Jared, who was still lying quietly in his bed without displaying any signs that he would be waking up.
Nicole began to pray silently. She could forget about the issue of the lipstick mark on his face. In fact, she would not be mad, let alone stay mad at him, as long as he regained consciousness.
She then center he gaze back on the screen of her laptop. Right now, she wished to help Zeke out by completing his mission. This was something he had always wanted to do, and so, she had to see to it that it was done.
Tuning out all distractions, Nicole began to focus on the mission. Barring the beeping of the vital signs monitor, the only sound that could be heard was the clacking on her keyboard as she typed away.
In another part of the world, Carl was sitting in the central command room, monitoring the various key areas in the production base. The secret organization that had been laying low thus far would not be giving up just like that. Carl thought that they would strike again at any given moment, due to the fact that an advanced droid such as Brave was just all too valuable to them.
Just as Carl was taking a sip of water, the alarm suddenly rang. He immediately looked over. "Situation report!"
