My Wife Act Differently Behind Me novel Chapter 133

Mr. Louis nodded and waved his hand. "Don't worry about it too much. My class is not after grades. As long as the students are happy, that's fine by me. I've interacted with Austin and the boys before. They are not bad boys, just slightly led astray because of lack of supervision. I have no issues with them under me."

When Nicole heard this, a thoughtful look flashed across her eyes. She had been a little worried that Mr. Louis would discriminate against Austin and the others and did not expect Mr. Louis to say that at all.

"Then let me thank you on behalf of Austin."

Mr. Louis smiled as he looked at Nicole. This proud and cold girl was well-behaved and polite. Coupled with that paper he had studied for several days now, Mr. Louis looked at Nicole with a sense of admiration that was difficult to put into words.

"Work hard, Nicole. I will always look after you."

Nicole did not say anything else as she closed the office door on her way out.

She looked at the set of exercises in her hand, the glint in her eyes indiscernible.

Glancing over at her watch, Nicole realized it was already past four in the afternoon. She carried her light schoolbag, planning to go to the cafe to brush up.

Inside the cafe, Jared and Max were seated in the guest room on the second floor. It was at the end of all the private rooms, on the second floor, which was very secretive and had excellent sound insulation.

Max served the two sitting opposite Jared tea. Mr. Bond wiped the sweat off his head and did not dare to take the drink. He instead stood up and spoke to Jared, "Mr. Johnston, the billion dollars from this transaction have been transferred and received, and not a penny short. Please have a look."

Max took the phone and confirmed the account details before nodding toward Jared.

Jared leaned against the rattan chair as he slothfully said, "What, you didn't take a cut?"

Mr. Bond had always been cunning in his cooperation with the Johnston Group. However, this time around, after Jared had returned to Hustuaburg, he did something that made Mr. Bond behave.

Hearing that, Mr. Bond said with a serious look, "How would I dare? From now on, Mr. Johnston, I will personally check through every transaction between us. Since there's no problem, we'll take our leave then."

Jared did not stop him while Max looked on as Mr. Bond scampered away like a mouse seeing a cat.

After confirming that those people had left the cafe, Max returned to Jared as he asked, "Mr. Johnston, we’ve subdued the Bonds. Who should we target next?"

Although Jared had returned home as the heir to the Johnston Group, the various companies under the group were all over the place now. Part of it was still with his second uncle. Some others had been gobbled up by other family members. If he wanted to take them back, he needed to take them down one by one.

Jared's head ached a little as he thought of it. As he massaged his temple, he said, "Set this matter aside first. Have you managed to investigate the matter with Lucifer?"

Max's expression became serious. "No... but last time, you got Claus to follow Miss Nicole, and a few days later, it seemed like someone from Squadron was investigating us."

"The Squadron?" Jared's gaze dimmed a little.

The world's most powerful mercenary organization, the Squadron. They were both righteous and evil, delving into both sides of the scale. Anything that a normal organization could not complete, they would be the ones sought after. Plus, this group did not even have a base and was hidden among the populace. They were just simply too mysterious.

'But I never have any involvement with Squadron before. Why are they investigating me? Could it be...' A flash of light appeared in Jared's eyes, yet he was not totally convinced.

Jared looked at the Royal Creek Institute outside the window as a thin mist gradually appeared in his eyes.

It was extremely cold yet also extremely elusive.

A moment later, his gaze seemingly caught something, and the chill in his eyes immediately faded away as an almost imperceptible warm smile appeared in its place.
