edgar clutched at his heart tightly, his chest tight in discomfort.

This was so heartbreaking!

“You've becmore and more lawless recently. You're acting at will without my orders, and it sounEs like

you're very optimistic about Nick?”

He was very hostile, coldly pushed him away, and walked forward weakly.

Eric's face turned pale with fright, and he patted her speechless mouth twice in annoyance.

It was because he had never been in a relationship before, and he could not comfort others. He quickly trotted

forward and continued to help Edgar to explain.

“You're wronged, Boss, | just cover with Anna because | was worried about you. Moreover, Mr. knight...No!

It’s Nick! How could | possibly be optimistic about him? Of course, I'm more optimistic about

you, Boss.”

He leaned close to Edgar's ear and continued to whisper, “Don’t look at Miss Sylvia always bullying you. It’s not

that there's something good to say, that beating is scolding, it's love, she will treat you differently

from others, maybe one day. Did you impress her?”

At last, he said something that was quite pleasant.

Edgar felt much more comfortable.

Eric laughed like a dog, and then he saw the crimson scratch on his left cheek and hissed, “However, Miss

Sylvia's attack is really cruel.”

After Edgar, he rubbed his face with a little pain.

He thought that Sylvia and Nick had gone to dinner together. He didn’t know what to talk about. He was

still unhappy in his heart, and his face quickly darkened.

“Send two people to follow and listen to what they have to say.”

Eric looked terrified and wanted to cry. “Boss, please forgive me! No matter what, Nick is the boss of undercover

investigations.

Edgar was expressionless.

Eric mumbled and continued to persuade, “If he is found out, Miss Sylvia will know. This matter is not

easy to explain. Aren't you afraid that she will misunderstand you again? Why don’t we go back to the

villa and wait for her?”

He sighed quietly.

His boss is too self-willed. When he encounters a relationship, he acts like a fool. What should he do?

Edgar thought about it for a while, and finally compromised, then asked, “Are there any brothers who have richer

emotional experience?”

She thought about it for a while.

“It seems that only seth fell in love, but he’s not in Frant city, he’s in S City.”

“Ten years?”

Edgar was stunned, and his eyebrows frowned. “He's the youngest, so he actually fell in love first?”

He laughed like a young man.

“Boss, you don’t understand this. Although he is young, he has a high emotional intelligence. He has a lot of

crazy ideas in his mind. | heard that his little daughter-in-law is obsessed with him.”

Edgar was silent, his deep black eyes narrowed slightly, “When his mission is finished, let him cto Frant city

to seealone.”

“Yes, Boss.”

Nick arranged for a well-decorated French restaurant. The very gentleman took the initiative to help Sylvia open

the seat and order the dishes for her.

Sylvia's expression was still calm as she drank swater Sylviafully.

Nick stared at her intently, her blue pupils gleaming, “I remember that you like a quiet environment to eat, and |

also remember your taste. If there is anything that you haven't done well, just letknow, me.”

Sylvia nodded, “Very thoughtful.”

He softened his voice and continued, “Sister Sylvia, we haven't seen each other for seven years since | was

assigned to the secret investigation department. This time, | happened to be in Frant city. Patrick toldthat

you entered the Police Bureau. Then | cover, it’s really good to see you, I...” | miss you so much.

Sylvia raised her eyes to look at him, and a memory-of Frant city was awakened.

She smiled, “Yes, in seven years, Mr. Nick has reached the position of the director of the secret investigation

department, and he still stands. Congratulations.”

Nick’s face turned pale.

It was Mr. Nick again.

not Brother Nick.

“Sister Sylvia, are we strangers?”

Sylvia still had a faint smile on his face.

Nick’s pupils trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to grab her hand, but she noticed it and avoided it.

“You don’t even wantto touch you? | know that you were angry withback then, but | was young

and | didn’t have to choose...”

“Master Nick.”

Sylvia interrupted him. When she talked about old things, her face was not very good. “If you asked me

out today, just to say this, then this meal is completely unnecessary.”

“Okay, we won't mention that.”

Nick shut up.

The waiter just brought the food to the table, which relieved the depressed atmosphere between the two

of them.

Except for the sound of knife and fork, the two of them were very quiet.

Nick was the first to break the silence. “I'm planning to stay in Frant city for a while longer. | heard from Patrick

that you've been investigating evidence recently. Don’t worry, I'll help you.”

“Good.”

Sylvia was not hypocritical either.

One code after another, he volunteered to help, she had no reason to refuse.

Nick was very happy to see that she had agreed quickly.

Those deep blue eyes made him smile.

As he elegantly sliced off a piece of beef, he asked casually, “I also heard that the man today is your

eztusband. You signed an employment agreement with him and turned him into your servant?”

“Yes,” Sylvia did not hide it.

Nick bestated, “Do you still have anything to do with him...”

Sylvia raised her eyes, her expression instantly cold, “This is my personal matter.”

“Okay, | won't ask. In short, I'm here this time, so | won't let anyone bully you.”

Sylvia's pupils were slightly complicated. She looked at the half-eaten beef on the plate and smiled. “Everyone

can change. | haven't seen each other in seven years. You still remember my taste, but you don’t know that my

taste is actually early. It's already changed; do you understand what | mean?”

Nick's face stiffened

How could he not understand what she meant, but he was not reconciled.

It was only a seven-year miss. Didn't they meet again now?

Sylvia ate casually and continued, “But you haven't changed. In the past, you were overbearing and liked to

make decisions for me. Today, I'm still the same, but I'm not the one who only walked around behind you and

didn’t do anything, Like a little girl.”

“Isn't it had to be overbearing? Snuggling in the arms of a powerful man and being a pampered little woman,

isn’t that the happiness that many girls in this world pursue?”

Sylvia just laughed and did not refute.

Maybe a lot of girls did.

But she never bothered to be a canary in a man’s cage. She preferred to be her own queen.

As for men or something, as long as she had money, she was willing to raise a few caged birds for her.

For a meal, Sylvia was tasteless.

When they cout of the restaurant, the weather outside had changed. The wind y

was cold.

Nick took off his military coat and prepared to put it on her.

Sylvia refused, “No need, I'm not cold.”

Nick curled his lips into a smile. He still put the dark green and black fur coat over her shoulders, wrapping her

small shoulders.

Sylvia eyebrows knitted together, not too happy.

It seemed that he still did not understand what he had said to him during dinner.

She was about to speak again when a bodyguard suddenly cover and whispered in her ear.

“Miss, the third master askedto cto you. Your guess is really good. In the past few days, three groups of

people have been sent to hunt down the freed killer. One of them died on the way, and the

other was killed. We saved him, he said he wanted to see you.”
