Chapter 1493
’Of course. He heard you were injured, so Mr. Douglas rushed over as soon as possible. But, you were in a coma for two days, so I arranged for him to stay at the base," Carl replied.
"Oh..." Nicole’s expression was slightly awkward as she had not expected that she would have slept for two days.
It was honestly too much; most likely, Douglas was already furious. Yet, she only had eyes for Jared at the moment.
'When did you wake up? I didn't even know..." Nicole asked. When Mr. Johnston Sr. came over, he had clearly not yet awoken. However, when she was in danger, he rushed around from the mainland.
Jared stared at the surprise and worry that glinted in Nicole’s eyes, then looked at her and reproached, ’I haven't woken up yet, and you dumped me and then went adventuring all alone? What did you plan to do if I had not rushed over in time?"
Once he remembered Nicole's blood-soaked state, his heart felt like it was painfully stabbed. It was not like he had not seen Nicole go on missions. He also guessed that a strong person like Nicole would definitely be met with dangerous missions in the organization. However, before this, she would always save the day. But this time, he noticed how dangerous Nicole’s jobs were.
Being stared by his searing gaze, Nicole was feeling slightly guilty. She did not know how to answer and merely mumbled, "It was an emergency, and I was worried I would drag you down. So I left..."
"Then you used this thing to observe me constantly?" Jared narrowed his gaze and pulled out a pinhole camera from his pocket.
Nicole did not expect him to know and could only squeeze an ugly smile while saying, "I was just worried for you..."
'Was it also you who agreed to let Martin send Fiorella to my sick ward?” Jared continued asking. 'Is this woman not jealous?' He thought.
