Chapter 277 Intentionally Letting Him Go Back

Lucian continued, “Back on the cruise ship, it was Ms. Chase who manipulated Mrs. Dalton, takingadvantage of her. If he had realized the problem earlier and willingly consumed the spiked juice, itshows just how cunning this young man is!”

“He is more than just cunning. If it weren’t for you arriving in time that day, Mrs. Dalton would havedefinitely suffered. He would have easily blamed everything on the medication’s effects and found anexcuse to escape. This terrifying.”

“No matter whether he saved Mr. Schmitt or not, he got injured because of saving Mr. Schmitt, whichmade Mrs. Dalton feel pity and guilt. Even until now, Mrs. Dalton still treats him like a child. But hisfeelings towards Mrs. Dalton are not ordinary!”

Nolan furrowed his brow, his gaze icy cold. “How did you do the task I asked you to do?”

“Mr. Dalton, don’t worry. I had placed a tracker and a bug in his suitcase before I sent him off.”

“After he got ashore, you had someone keep an eye on him, without alarming him.”

Nolan sensed that the boy had come prepared. Today, Kevin was intercepted by him, so Kevindefinitely had a trick up his sleeve.

“Do we need to tell Mrs. Dalton about this?”

0.00%

“No need.”

Jayson was a little dissatisfied, “Why didn’t you tell Mrs. Dalton? Otherwise, Mrs. Dalton would think hewas a good person and consider you as someone who had been hurting her all along.”

Lucian knocked his forehead, “Stupid. He was already a great image in Peytie’s mind. We don’t haveconcrete evidence. Do you think Peytie would believe you? To deal with someone like him, you have tobe more cunning than him.”

“He came for Peytie, and he was determined that it wouldn’t be just these two things. Keep a close eyeon him, and there might be unexpected gains.”

Nolan extinguished the last cigarette and turned to leave.

Jayson hesitated, and Lucian patted his shoulder. “Keep it to yourself, don’t tell Mrs. Dalton. Thatyoung man is not ordinary, and neither is Mr. Dalton.”

“Brother, I understand. Mr. Dalton deliberately let him go.”

“You understand, that’s good. Keep a close eye on him, don’t let the spy sneak in again.”

Lucian had been working by Nolan’s side for so many years, but it was the first time he hadencountered such a formidable opponent.

If it hadn’t been for Peyton being kidnapped, he didn’t know how much longer those people could havestayed hidden.

However, Lucian is not too worried. This matter has already been handed over to the police, and it isonly a matter of time

before the truth is uncovered.

One day, the truth will be revealed.

Peyton lay in bed, unable to sleep, her mind filled with

everything that had happened recently. She wondered how Nolan was doing with his investigation.

Nolan kept a tight lip and didn’t leak any information.

“It’s late, go to sleep,” Nolan appeared at the door.

“I couldn’t sleep.”

Nolan closed the door and said, “I had someone rebandage him and then had someone escort himaway. If you don’t believe me, you can call him anytime to inquire about his whereabouts.”

Nolan handed over a new phone, “I had someone duplicate the SIM card, it still has your previousphone number.”

Peyton froze, “You… don’t intend to lock me up?”

“To be honest, I wanted to do this.”

Without any hesitation or denial, Nolan said, “I dream of locking you up. I don’t want you to leave, nordo I want you to experience any more danger.”

When it came to this, he smiled helplessly and said, “But I don’t want to force you to do dangerousthings. If you’re not careful, you could end up in pieces. Peytie, I want to make it up to you. Will yougive me a chance?”

After he had hurt her like that, she only wanted to smile in the face of his sincere efforts to makeamends.

Peyton knew that Nolan was not emotionally stable like her, and she didn’t want to provoke him.

She lay down with her back to him, refusing to answer his question, “I’m tired.”

Nolan didn’t force her to answer. He turned off the lights in the room. His low voice echoed abovePeyton’s head, “Peytie, we have plenty of time. The rest of our lives is long, you can take your time tothink. Or you don’t have to answer, just watch how I act.”

The rest of my life was long.

This was the funniest joke Peyton had ever heard.
