Chapter 1382 You’ve Changed

"Has it been busy at the research center lately? It seems like the reports have fewer details than they did a couple

of days ago." Nicole's sudden question caught Chloe off guard.

The two of them walked along the dimly lit street on their way back home. As the pedestrians gradually dwindled,

only they remained, illuminated by faint lights.

Chloe stiffened at Nicole's question. However, Chloe quickly realized her response and decided to explain. "A bit. It's

a critical period. Did I not include all the details in the reports?"

She even threw a question back at Nicole.

Nicole couldn't help but click her tongue. Chloe was too clever for her own good; there was no way to trick her into

saying anything.

Sighing silently, Nicole lamented the fact that she had no choice but to continue training Chloe since she had

started in the first place.

"I think they were included, but I've forgotten. Your mentioning it just now helped jog my memory a bit." Nicole

coughed lightly, pretending to respond seriously.

Suppressing a smile, Chloe continued their unspoken agreement not to reveal each other's secrets. It was a shared

understanding between the two.

However, Chloe had no intention of telling Nicole about the man. He was too mysterious, and he knew so much

about Nicole and Colton. His origins needed to be investigated. Her face turned serious when she thought of this.

"Has it been busy at the research center lately? It seems like the reports have fewer details than they did a couple

of days ago." Nicole's sudden question caught Chloe off guard.

With her attention focused on the way home, Nicole didn't want to continue dwelling on Chloe's late return. If Chloe

wanted to tell her, Nicole believed she would do so without her having to repeatedly inquire.

Thus, the two returned home, each with their own secrets.

"Nicole, you should drink more warm water. You must be freezing. You should also take a shower. By the way,

tomorrow is my day off."

As soon as they arrived home, Chloe's mouth started running.

Nicole suddenly questioned her earlier impression of Chloe. She had always thought of Chloe as someone quiet and

efficient, but now...

She watched Chloe bustling around, her skepticism growing. Was this really the Chloe she knew? Chloe seemed

even more cheerful than when they first met.



"Nicole, why are you looking at me like that?" Chloe was puzzled as she approached Nicole with a cup of warm

water, noticing that Nicole's expression seemed off.

Is it really so easy for my inner thoughts to be exposed? Has Nicole already picked up on some clues?

Chloe placed the cup of warm water in front of Nicole, still waiting for her answer. But Nicole didn't reply

immediately; she simply stared at Chloe. This made Chloe feel uneasy.

"Chloe, have you noticed that you've changed a lot recently?" Nicole was nonchalant as she asked. She held the cup

of water and took a sip. Almost scalding herself, she then placed it on the table.

Chloe's movements momentarily halted. She stared at Nicole, confused. What has changed? I'm not aware of any

changes. Has Nicole misunderstood something?

"What do you mean?"

"You used to be quiet, but now you're so talkative like an old woman."

Nicole spoke with such sincerity that Chloe was taken aback. She didn't know how Nicole managed to say it with

such a straight face, but she also had no idea how to respond to this.

"Nicole, is it possible that it's because you're pregnant and I'm just more worried about you?" Chloe sighed and

spoke. She didn't want to continue being stared at with that intense gaze from Nicole.

Hearing this, Nicole flushed, and she stammered for a moment before failing to say anything. She picked up the

cup, returning to her room at a sluggish pace.

Chloe watched her clumsy figure, her heart feeling a mix of sympathy and amusement. Pregnancy was quite a

challenging experience, and it was normal for her to worry about Nicole.
