The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 189

The air conditioning was on in the room, but Nora's back was slick with sweat.

A cold draft seemed to come from nowhere, making the hair on her arms stand on end.

"Who could it be…"

Nora's voice trembled.

Who was secretly taking pictures of her, and who was so brazen as to have a delivery driver bring them right to her door?

"It won't be hard to trace."

"But even if we do, it'll probably be very difficult to confirm their identity."

Nathan was very calm. "The person used a food delivery driver, not a courier, which involves a specific process."

"With a courier, you're specifically asking someone to buy or pick something up and deliver it to a designated location."

"A food delivery driver has to pick up the order from the restaurant first and then deliver it."

"The photos couldn't have come from the restaurant with the food. That means the person inserted the photos after the restaurant prepared the order but before the driver arrived."

"There are cameras all along the routes now, so it won't be hard to find out who slipped the photos in."

Nathan's voice carried no particular soothing tone, but Nora miraculously calmed down.

She couldn't help but look at the man in front of her.

There was a raw, magnetic authority in his gaze, a quiet strength that made the world feel small around him.

His eyes shone like stars, as if no matter what happened, the light in them would never be extinguished.

Nora took a deep breath. "I'll file a police report first, just to have it on record."

Even though a detective was standing right beside her and she could investigate the case herself, she knew she had to follow the proper procedures.

Nathan didn't stop her. While Nora was on the phone, he re-examined the food from the delivery.

Finally, on a small piece of green onion floating on the surface of the dumpling soup, he discovered some white powder.

When Nora returned, she saw Nathan carefully collecting the white powder and slowly frowned. "Is it a sedative?"

"Hard to say."

Nathan deadpanned a joke. "It could be pepper."

Nora was speechless.
