The Captain I Married by Chance novel Chapter 605

For Special Ops to go to such lengths to accommodate him, it meant Nolan's physical fitness and other skills could fall completely short, as long as he sharpened his experience and technique enough to officially join the squad.

Nora had never seen such lenient conditions.

"Officer Peyton didn't tell you? Nolan is a computer genius."

Captain Gordon looked at Nora in surprise, not expecting her to be out of the loop.

"I didn't get the chance." Nathan rubbed his nose, looking vaguely guilty but not entirely. "Been too busy lately."

Captain Gordon didn't suspect a thing. A faint smile touched his lips. "I understand. I heard you two are tying the knot? Congratulations."

"It's a shame we can't deploy freely, otherwise we'd definitely be there to celebrate with you."

Nora felt incredibly flattered, the surprise of Nolan being a hacker momentarily overshadowed.

These guys weren't ordinary citizens who could just wander around as they pleased.

"Thank you. We really appreciate the thought."

Nathan remained perfectly composed, a slight smile on his face showing his genuine happiness.

Captain Gordon's smiling eyes shifted from Nathan to Nora. "Dr. Hayes, I'm leaving this kid in your hands."

"I've heard about the history between you two. Since you can keep him in line, I'll have to trouble you to mentor him for now. The main goal is to help him settle down—he's still way too childish."

"When we brought him in for training, he whined endlessly at first, but slowly managed to push through."

"Turns out, his dad treats him well, but is rarely home. The kid felt lonely. Having people actually discipline him was a novelty for him."

"We don't know how long this novelty will last, so we're hoping you can break him in first."

"Otherwise, he'd never survive high-intensity drills."

Nathan smoothly interrupted.

Nora shot him a look. Seeing that his expression was perfectly normal and he hadn't seemed to cut her off on purpose, she didn't say anything more.

Seeing that everything was handled, Captain Gordon stood up to take his leave.

Nathan personally walked him to the door, exchanged a few more words, and then turned back into the room.

Nora crossed her arms, shooting Nathan a sidelong glance. "Don't you have anything you want to tell me?"

Nathan clearly knew about Nolan's situation beforehand but hadn't breathed a word of it.

Nora vaguely recalled a time they had discussed colleagues, and Nathan had dropped a very meaningful comment.

She hadn't thought much of it at the time, but looking back now, it all clicked into place.
