Chapter 1010
Nelson was nonplussed for a moment before he remembered the incident of the night before.
He instantaneously chuckled and said, "How do you want to punish me? Be gentle, my body hasn't
recovered yet!"
Naomi was gobsmacked.
"You pervert! What are you thinking about?"
"Who's a pervert? I said you should hit me lightly. Is there a problem with that?"
Naomi was at a loss for words.
She hadn't expected him to be so good at flirting. He must have done that on purpose!
"Give me your mobile phone!"
She ignored the previous subject and moved to target his phone.
His heart skipped a beat. Before he could stop her, Naomi had already accessed his phone's settings.
After tapping a few times on the screen with her slender fingers, she picked up her phone and made a
call to him.
The ringtone of his mobile phone had turned into the sound of someone practicing self defense.
There was a lot of shouting! It was very lively.
"This is my specific ringtone. From now on, you will know that it's me once you hear this ringtone. That
way, you won't mix them up again, okay?"
Nelson nodded and said, "Okay!"
Naomi returned the phone to him, not forgetting to give him a mischievous smile.
"You look quite nervous. Are there any secrets in your phone?"
Nelson froze and stayed quiet for a long time. Naomi laughed and said, "Just kidding! Don't be so
tense, relax! I never snoop around other people's phones without their permission. This time is an
exception, but I did so in front of you. Well, I have to go now, or else I'm really going to be late!"
After that, she picked up her bag and left hastily.
Hearing Naomi's footsteps as she walked briskly out of the ward towards the corridor, he couldn't help
grinning from ear to ear.
With such an energetic young girl around him, he felt that he was leading a life full of hope.
After washing up, he sat down at the table and opened all the lunch boxes that Naomi had dropped off.
Just as she said, they were all his favorite foods.
Moreover, even he himself had almost forgotten that he used to like some of them in the past.
However, she still remembered them all.
After eating a few mouthfuls of the food, he felt as if he had returned to the time when he had been
living with the Granger family.
Back in the day, he thought there was nothing but misery in his life. It was not until later that he
discovered that period of time was the only heartwarming moment in his life!
His phone rang again, but this time it was not the unique ringtone set by Naomi.
To his disappointment, Naomi didn't call him. He thought she would do so once she arrived at the
company.
As he was thinking about that, he picked up the call.
An unfamiliar voice could be heard. The person from the other end deliberately lowered his voice,
sounding a little weird.
"You're Mr. Luther, I assume! We need your instructions on how to deal with the matters concerning the
two kidnappers. Harley Louis has been investigating this case recently. I'm afraid that we would be put
into an unfavorable situation if he finds out that you're related to the case."
"Who are you?" Nelson asked vigilantly. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
The caller immediately said their code word and continued, "I am one of your assistants who is
responsible for tracking and investigating the matter. I have been in contact with Richard. He has gone
abroad lately, therefore I have to contact you directly."
The code word was set by Nelson and Richard, even Monique had no idea about it!
Hence, Nelson did not suspect him. He asked, "Do you have any plans?"
The caller replied, "I've investigated them. They still have some relatives with them. Everyone has their
own weaknesses. In this case, their loved ones are theirs. As long as we take advantage by holding
them as hostages, they won't dare to disobey us!"
Nelson frowned as he replied, "I don't agree to use this method, it's too despicable. Since you've said
that they care very much about their relatives, I think it's better for them to acknowledge their ways and
change than to threaten them. After all, they have committed so many misdeeds. Even if they can get
away this time, they probably have been caught multiple times before. Go to the countryside and help
their relatives to settle down, and then let them meet each other!" "Yes, sir!" After hanging up the
phone, Nelson recalled how he had run away alone back then.
Since he had experienced those sufferings before, he didn't want others to go through the same thing
as well.
He hoped that the two of them would have a chance to turn over a new leaf and start a new life. He
also wished that their families would not have to live a vagrant life like he had in the past.
He had softened his heart yet again, but at least he had no qualms about it at the moment.
