Chapter 611 If somebody else were using such good personnel to do something that any regular bodyguard could do,
she would have definitely berated that person. However, if that person were Nicholas. she would only
approve of his decision.
“You’ve made quite a few enemies over the years, so you indeed need to make proper arrangements to
protect them. Should I get two more guards for you?”
“No, thanks. Just two guards by my fiancée’s side are enough.”
As soon as the words left his lips, Janet froze, and she gawked at him in shock. “You… already have a
fiancée? When did this happen?”
He furrowed his brows slightly upon hearing her prodding inquiry and said calmly, “Not long
ago.”
Clearly, he didn’t want to speak about Tessa with her, and she could hear it in his voice, which made her
very uncomfortable.
Nevertheless, she composed herself very quickly as she smirked and chuckled lightly. “I don’t mean
anything else. I’m just a little curious.”
Nicholas nodded, and Janet decided to catch up with him after seeing that.

“Not bad.”
Then, they spoke awkwardly for a little bit, but Nicholas didn’t want to waste more time. “Since everything
is fine, you should just go back. The higher-ups won’t allow you to leave your mission by yourself,” he
said pragmatically.
Toward Janet, he had always maintained the courtesy required of a friendship and the distance between
a man and a woman.
Janet was his partner when he was in the military, and he didn’t contact her anymore after he retired from
the army and returned to his family. Despite his surprise at her sudden appearance, he was rather
patient with her because of their friendship as former partners.
Toward the end, he added, “Regarding the Night Alliance, there’s nothing for you to worry about.”
Janet found the matter somewhat difficult to swallow while she looked at the man’s emotionless face.
The whole while, she felt that she had a special place next to Nicholas because she always thought that
no one in this world was more intimate with him than herself.
Their past experiences were something nobody else could imagine, especially their rapport. With just
one look, she could read what was on his mind.
Not to mention that whether it was background or even appearance-wise, they were a natural match for
each other.
In other words, there couldn’t be another couple more fitting for each other than them.
Back then, when Nicholas left the military, she kept thinking that she would marry him one day in the
future. However, she never thought that he would have a fiancée now!
At this thought, Janet clenched her fists at her sides for a second and released them again.
She decided to make another attempt as she smiled coyly and said, “The mission is not in a rush, but I
rarely make a visit. Aren’t you going to play the part of a good host?”
“I’m still busy with work.” Nicholas turned her down straight away. “Furthermore, I don’t want my fiancée
to get the wrong idea.”
When she caught a glimpse of the gentleness that flashed across his face when he mentioned his
fiancée, she felt a stab through her heart.
Finally, she looked at him once more while she kept her pride and dignity, then nodded with a faint smile.
“I got it.”

In response, Nicholas asked Edmund to see her out, and she seemed lost in her thoughts after she was

When she walked out of the Sawyer Group, her subordinate was already waiting for her with the car.
“Please, Jan,” he said, opening the car door for her politely.
She ignored him, turned back to look at the spot where Nicholas’ office was, and her mind kept replaying
everything he said and did earlier. All of a sudden, her face turned stone cold.
Even though his gentleness was only visible for a split second, it brought her a tremendous sense of
crisis because she had never seen Nicholas acting that way.
That man had always been above others with an expressionless face, and he would never care about
other people’s feelings.
But just earlier, that man told her that he was worried that his fiancée might get the wrong idea.
At that moment, she was incredibly jealous of that woman who could become his fiancée, but at the
same time, she was very curious to find out how outstanding this woman was that she could make a man
as aloof as Nicholas care that much.
With this thought in mind, she kept her gaze away and looked at her subordinate sharply, ordering, “You
don’t have to come with me to complete the mission. Stay here and find out who Nicholas Sawyer’s
fiancée is!”
