Chapter 3158
"Now that you know, what do you think about it?" Seeing that Preston was teasing her, Lulu didn't back down.
"I can't change anything with my thoughts. Right now, the only thing I care about is not feeling pressured to get married. Everything else isn't that important. As long as I'm not rushed into marriage, the pressure isn't a big deal."
"Wait until Ellar gets married, then you'll see," Lulu said, shrugging and looking forward to the drama that might happen.
"Then well wait/ Preston replied casually, as if the idea of Ellar getting married was not a big deal.
"You mean Ellar getting married is unlikely?" Lulu asked, tilting her head and sizing up Preston.
"Good things take time/ Preston remarked, genuinely believing Ellar's journey to marriage wouldn't be smooth.
Lulu pouted. "You're not very optimistic about his marriage. Be careful, or Ellar might come after you."
Preston chuckled but didn't continue the topic. Instead, he turned to Nicole. "Have you changed the direction of the investigation?"
"What's up?" Nicole asked, her expression turning serious.
"Here's the deal. I had a lead on someone suspected to be part of the Eastern Falcon, but suddenly there's been no word from him. I'm a bit worried. Did they discover something?''
"Well..." Nicole began, briefly explaining the situation to Preston.
Preston immediately understood. "I see. I thought your actions might have spooked them."
"Some things are better left to them. I shouldn't get too involved, just offer some support," Nicole said, indicating she would step in only if absolutely necessary.
"As long as everything's okay," Preston knew he shouldn't pry further.
