Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 528

Chapter 528

One of the men lowered his head slightly. “Nick, don’t be nervous. We just happened to run into you and wanted to say hello. After all, you’re the son of an old acquaintance. It would be impolite not to greet you…”

“Keep your distance!”

Nick’s bodyguards were all retired mercenaries, highly trained and sharply alert. The moment the men so much as crossed a line, the alarm would have been raised.

If Nick had not remained silent, the two of them would already have been pinned down and taken away.

“Heh.”

Seeing how tightly guarded Nick was, the two men had no choice but to step back a little.

“Nick, no need to be tense. Please help us pass along a message to George. Tell him… his old friends still think of him often.”

At those words, Nick’s gaze snapped sideways. The two men chuckled softly, then turned and walked away.

A bodyguard asked for instructions, “Should we follow them and find out who they are?”

“Record the license plate,” Nick said.

When the window rolled up, worry filled Khloe’s eyes.

“Who were they? How could someone your dad knows come looking for you?”

Those two clearly didn’t look like decent people. Even though they claimed to be greeting him, every word sounded more like a veiled threat.

She couldn’t understand how someone like George could have enemies like that.

Nick’s expression had darkened as well. What exactly was going on?

“I don’t know,” Nick said in a low voice. “I’ve heard he offended some powerful international figures when he was young, but I don’t know the details. You know my father-if something happens, he never tells me.”

George never spoke of his own affairs, and Nick never bothered to ask. Father and son had lived their own separate lives since Nick’s childhood.

But people like this left a shadow in Nick’s heart.

When he was young and kidnapped, it was men like these who had targeted him first. Because he was so young back then, the blame was later placed on the relatives who had been looking after him. Everyone in the Hunt family believed it had been an intentional leak of his whereabouts, meant to strike at George.

Nick vaguely remembered hearing a rumor-that the people who kidnapped him were actually ones George could not afford to offend. Knowing he couldn’t pursue the matter, George chose to let it go.

If that was true, then George himself might be the greatest hidden danger to the Hunt family.

So many years had passed, and yet there were still people who remembered him.

1/2.

The thoughts ran through Nick’s mind, stirring his emotions, but such unproven speculation would only make Khloe worry.

“It seems your dad’s enemies are no small trouble. You should be careful… Maybe I should call Loretta and let her know.”

Khloe was already reaching for her phone when Nick stopped her hand.

“She’d only worry. I’ll have someone pass the message to Dad. His problems are his to handle.”

Khloe thought about it and agreed she’d been too anxious. “Then from now on, be extra careful when you go out. Bring more bodyguards with you. And once we find out who those people are, report it to the police.”

“Alright.”

Whatever Khloe said, Nick agreed without hesitation.

The fact that those men had been able to follow them so quietly surprised her. Their sudden appearance almost felt deliberate-like they wanted to be seen.
