Early the next morning, Theo and I went downstairs to have breakfast. Who would have expected us to run into Nibel again in the restaurant?
He looked a little excited when he saw us. "Miss Wanda, President Grant, I didn't expect you two to be staying here too."
We had parted ways at the scenic spot last night, but Nibel was also staying in this hotel?
There was a shift in my expression, but considering who he was, I could only smile along with him. "Indeed. What a coincidence."
"Let's have breakfast together," Nibel said.
Theo responded before I could say anything, "Alright."
This place was serving a breakfast buffet, so we grabbed some food and found a place to sit.
The conversation between Nibel and Theo was all about the economic situation in the country and abroad, so I was not able to join in. "You two go ahead and eat first. I’m going to the bathroom."
I wanted to escape for a bit before continuing with that.
Entering the bathroom, I turned on the tap and washed my hands.
Was it really a coincidence that we bumped into Nibel here? Was it part of his plan?
Regardless of how much I cracked my head, I still could not figure out the reason if this was really a part of his plan. After much deliberation, I could only decide that this was a coincidence.
Forget it. We still would have to interact with Nibel when we went back later. I would not pick a bone with him.
I returned to the dining hall. They were already done eating.
“You’re both done?”
“Yes. I need to return to Whaldorf City now. You two continue. I’ll see you back in the city.”
"See you there.”
He was gone at last.
I breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Theo. "Should we also get ready to go back?"
