Chapter 559 “I’m going to Mecrounia, and not sure when I will be back” Lloyd quickly sensed Nicole’s impatience with him. He smiled gently and asked nothing more, well-disposed, and gentlemanly, just like on the silver screen.
“Okay, Nicole,” he replied, his voice pleasant, with a very peaceful yet alienated tone. He was standing at a safe distance, causing no discomfort to Nicole. “I wish you the best of luck.”
Nicole looked at him and nodded, knowing that what she had just felt was not an illusion.” Thank you.”
Lloyd looked on with a thoughtful look on his face as Nicole went without looking back. He did not follow her again, but just stood where he was, quietly watching her leave. He gave out a vibe that felt difficult to guess and unfathomable.
Many girls around him recognized him, but they did not dare to approach him because of his icy expression. But there was one girl plucking up enough courage to step out and look at Lloyd with admiration.
“Are you Lloyd?” the girl asked. Lloyd nodded. His frosty expression vanished from his face as he looked at the girl with a gentle smile. “I am. Is there anything that I can help you with?” When the girl saw he was so friendly, she quickly took out a booklet from her bag and handed it to Lloyd. “Can I get your autograph?”
Nicole had been staying in the Riddle Mansion recently to take care of Mr. Riddle Sr.
As she arrived back at the mansion, she saw luxury cars parked up in front of the house. She stopped in her tracks. But when she remembered that Mr. Riddle Sr. had mentioned about the party yesterday, she let out a sigh. ‘I hate parties.’
At first, she just wanted to show her face and leave, not expecting that everyone was looking at her with surprise and jealousy in their eyes upon hearing her name.
‘That’s this woman!’
Mr. Wynn was also startled, looking at Nicole and said stutteringly, “H-Hello, Nicole. I-I’ve heard your name a long time ago. What a pleasure to meet you in person.” Chloe saw Mr. Wynn’s attitude and was exasperated. He did not show such enthusiasm when she greeted him earlier. Taylor looked at Nicole with disdain. ‘These politicians are often reluctant to rub shoulders with businessmen. But this time, things are special; it’s said that Sebastian, who is expected to become the governor, has also accepted the invitation and would attend this party.’
