Chapter 1171: Assault Operation
Chapter 1171: Assault Operation
"To be honest, this marriage really has a lot going for it. If there’s no fate between them, it’s best to part ways early. Both Nicole and Steven Cooper are outstanding people with no shortage of suitors. If they’re truly not interested in being together, they shouldn’t hold each other back.""You’re right, Daisy." Ariel Morris nodded in agreement.
"Let’s talk about you," Daisy Grant smiled at Ariel Morris, "A few days ago, Langdon Seal was on a talk show. The female host asked him if there was someone he had feelings for, and he said yes. His gaze was as gentle as could be as he looked into the camera and said he had been waiting his whole life for that girl to turn back. Ariel, Langdon Seal was talking about you, right? If Brother Seys sees this episode, you know how touching that would be."
Ariel Morris’s expression was somewhat unnatural. "The engagement between me and Brother Langdon was arranged by my mom before I was even born. Later, I went to Dublin after parting ways with Arlo, and the person who saved me at the airport in Dublin was Brother Langdon. I’ve always considered Brother Langdon as a good friend, a confidant. Without him saving me, I wouldn’t have reunited with Arlo after eight years, nor would I have this happy life today. Aunt Olivia Summer and Brother Langdon have both been lifesavers for me and my brother..."
"It’s just that your heart belongs only to Brother Seys. So, fate is destined; even if you and Langdon Seal have a marriage contract, it doesn’t matter. Your love for Brother Seys leaves no room for anyone else, inevitably letting down Langdon Seal’s feelings."
"I hope Brother Langdon can find a girl to walk through life with."

Nicole had been staying at Clearflower Estate for over a month, and Olivia Summer’s attitude towards her was becoming increasingly strange.
Sometimes she spoke very coldly, while other times she would actively show concern for Nicole, like recently when Olivia gave her some floral tea. Every afternoon, when they had nothing else to do, they would talk about the benefits of floral tea, chatting while sipping it. It was at those times that Nicole felt Olivia’s friendliness towards her.
Andrea Greenwood was more formidable. Ever since she started following those fertility-boosting recipes, Andrea ate those dishes daily, indicating just how much she wanted to have a child.
Nicole had been quite idle recently, so she learned a lot about managing angina from her classmates in Italy. With Nicole’s help, Olivia’s angina hadn’t recurred, and she was looking much better.
That night.
After her bath, Nicole received an internal call from the troops instructing a surprise operation to clean up the Restricted District tonight!
Restricted District—!!
Nicole immediately sat up in bed, held her phone, and pushed open the partition door, "Jose Floyd, you said you wouldn’t cause trouble after taking over the Restricted District. You promised..."
Her voice abruptly stopped as Nicole stared at the man in front of her, completely naked, and she froze in place.
In a few seconds, Nicole snapped back to reality and immediately turned around, her face unnatural, her voice a bit tense, "Put on some clothes! Can you please not be so provocative? I have something to ask you!"
"All dressed." A cold voice responded.
"That fast?" Nicole muttered, turning back to discuss business with Jose Floyd, only to find the man dressed merely in a towel, and she was exasperated, "You call that dressed?"
Jose Floyd glanced at Nicole indifferently, his voice calm, "You barged into my room; I didn’t invite you in to gawk. Next time, please knock before coming in."
"..."
"Do you have something to say?" His voice was cold, with an obvious sense of distance.
"I wanted to ask if recently your Restricted District has been getting too arrogant? Jose Floyd, you know what happened to Wells Morales, if you..."
Knock, knock—
The knock on the door interrupted Nicole’s words....
