Chapter 1657
Nicole felt a little helpless upon hearing that. "You loved to apologize back then too. There's no need for that,
really."
Lloyd was taken aback. He did not expect Nicole to remember the times when the two of them were out on their
missions.
Although he was a little older than her, Nicole was such a prodigy that even a well-trained agent such as he had to
follow her lead. During several instances, he had almost become dead weight for Nicole, and that soon became a
habit.
Now, even after he had become the scion of the Holder family, and even when he had not uttered a word of
apology to anyone since, he would still retain this particular habit with Nicole.
"But I do not want this news to stay trending, and I do not wish to attract too much of an attention. I'll leave that to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou. " Nicole said, knowing what Lloyd should do to get the furor to die down.
"Alright. Don't worry, I'll get someone to settle it ASAP. Have a good sleep," he replied.
"Will do." Nicole nodded before hanging up.
Lloyd pressed the red icon, and proceeded to fix his eyes on the scene outside the window. 'So... she actually still
remembers some of the things in the past..."
His lips lifted as he let out a happy smile.
During the very next morning, as soon as Nicole arrived at school, she had already guessed that many would be
surprised to see her, and that the chatter among them would soon ensue.
However, she did not know that it would be even worse this time. Indeed, there were already more than a dozen of
students waiting for her at the entrance of the school.
Nicole got out of the car and her frown became instant as she looked at the crowd standing by the gate.
Samuel grinned. "Look, Nicole, you're famous now. The news of the school having a superstar was trending in the
school's forum last night and some said they wanted an autograph from you. I didn't think they'd really camp at the
gate for you."
Nicole was instantly flabbergasted. 'When did that happen? Why didn't I know about it?'
And on second thought, she did not even bother to browse through the school forum much to begin with.
Staring the crowd before her, Nicole was at loss as to how she was supposed to get into school. If they were a
bunch of criminals, she would have just kicked them aside and entered, but the sad truth to her was, all these
people here were just students.
Just when she was at her wit's end, Austin suddenly appeared with Sammey and the gang in tow. "Make way, make
way! Don't harass Nicole!"
"Move it, you lot! How is our boss supposed to enter the gate with you fools crowding around here!?"
Seeing that the school bully was here, everyone there hoping for Nicole's autograph could only take a step back.
Those who had been cordoned off by the gang dared not take another further step forward.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSamuel and Spencer laughed out loud in astonishment. " Nicole, your underlings here are surely useful."
Austin being Nicole's underling was already an open secret at school. Because of this, naturally, Samuel and
Spencer knew about it too.
"Yeah. I never felt him being so useful before." Nicole raised a brow, feeling that Austin was quite the sight for sore
eyes today.
As soon as Austin noticed that Nicole was looking toward the direction from which she had come, he immediately
ran over. "Boss, I'll be here to send you in! Don't you worry. With me around, no one will dare to harass you!"
Nicole flashed Austin a faint smile. "Good work."
Nicole rarely ever smiled at him, and this smile was so radiant that it felt as though it could light the sun up as well.
That made Austin's heart skip a beat, enchanting him for a moment.
"Austin, bro..." Noticing Austin standing there like a statue, Sammey elbowed him by reflex.
It was only then that Austin snapped back into reality as he shook his head and gave Nicole a gesture of invitation."
Boss!"
Immediately after, Nicole swaggered into school under the protection of a bunch of her underlings.
