Nicole’s face instantly turned pale.
Jose Floyd was making a threat! If she didn’t listen to him, he would reveal to her grandfather and father that she had been his woman for the past five years...
Jose Floyd took over Wells Morales’s Restricted District, and if the Seys Family found out she had a relationship with Jose Floyd, they would be furious, not to ntion Jose Floyd’s other identities...
Jose Floyd clearly wasn’t going to let her go, he couldn’t stand her being at peace!
Steven Cooper glanced at the two of them, sensing sothing unusual about them. He felt a bit resistant towards Jose Floyd’s domineering nature. Holding Nicole’s hand, he said, "Let’s go back, dinner should be ready."
When it ca to this man, he inexplicably felt a sense of danger and didn’t want Nicole to stay with him for long.
Nicole was pulled along by Steven Cooper.
Jose Floyd’s eyes narrowed coldly, his gaze landing on their clasped hands, his eyes exuding extre coldness as he stood there chillingly, "Ten—Nine—Eight—"
Jose Floyd had just counted three numbers when Steven Cooper felt the person beside him stop in her tracks. He looked back at Nicole and softly asked, "Nicole, what’s wrong?"
Nicole’s body was sowhat stiff, her feet no longer daring to take another step, standing in place.
"Nicole, let’s not pay attention to him, let’s go back and eat, okay?" Steven Cooper tightened his grip on Nicole’s fingers, seeing her silent and feeling sowhat panicked.
"Seven—Six—Five—" Behind them, Jose Floyd’s cold countdown continued, each number colder than the last, full of cruel ruthlessness.
Nicole instinctively withdrew her hand from Steven Cooper’s grasp, looked up at Steven Cooper, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Cooper, you go ahead for dinner, I need to say a few words to him."
Steven Cooper glanced at the man behind them, feeling uneasy about his cold and heartless face. "I don’t think this person is good. You’re a young woman; I don’t feel comfortable. Let’s go eat without minding him. I can’t believe he’d dare do anything rash!"
Steven Cooper pulled at Nicole, intending to leave.
Nicole stood firm, her eyes growing deeper.
She didn’t know if others would dare, but Jose Floyd was a man who feared nothing in the world, completely like a lunatic capable of anything!
She knew all too well about his tactics!
Nicole withdrew her hand again, smiled faintly, "I’m fine, Brother Cooper, don’t worry, nothing will happen. Give a few minutes, go ahead for dinner, I’ll be right back. This person is an old friend of mine, it’s just that I want to cut ties with him, so I said we’re not friends earlier. Don’t worry, he wouldn’t go as far as to harm an old friend, he’s a man after all!"
Nicole emphasized the last sentence, clearly intended for Jose Floyd to hear.
Jose Floyd’s profound eyes slightly narrowed, emitting a chill and ruthlessness, completely devoid of emotion.
Steven Cooper opened his mouth to say sothing, Nicole smiled slightly, comforting him, "Don’t worry, I’m fine. Plus, I’ve been trained by the military, he won’t silently subdue . If we fight, here is the Seys Family, he wouldn’t dare to act so brazenly near the Seys Family."
Steven Cooper hesitated for a mont, then nodded.
Yes, the only thing nearby is the Seys Family, and the Seys Family is renowned in City C; even if this man is crazy, he wouldn’t dare kidnap the Seys Family’s daughter right next to them.
"Then be careful, if you’re not back in ten minutes, to ensure your safety, I’ll tell the elders of the Seys Family. If he’s against you, he won’t get away with it!"
"Okay." Nicole nodded.
Steven Cooper glanced back at the man behind them, morizing his features in case sothing went wrong, before finally leaving.
