Chapter 147 The Strategist
Peyton raised the notebook in their hand, which recorded all of Nolanâs preferences.
âI havenât finished memorizing yet. Mr. Dalton used to put three cubes of sugar in his coffee, liked his
steak medium rare, and enjoyed cherries and blueberriesâ¦â
Peyton closed the notebook and looked at Nolan seriously, saying, âI remember that these are the fruits
you dislike the most. You only eat steak medium rare, and as for coffee, you never add sugar.â
If it werenât for Ronaldâs serious instructions to Peyton not to make any mistakes, Peyton would have
thought someone was trying to sabotage her career.
This preference form was completely opposite to Nolanâs habits.
Nolan took the notebook from Peytonâs hand and said, âYou donât need to pay attention to the contents
inside.â
Nolanâs preferences were inscrutable. Except for Peyton, no one knew Nolanâs true likes.
Nolan said, âYou just need to follow the instructions.â
The light emitted from the computer screen in the carriage fell on Nolanâs face. Nolanâs facial features
appeared even colder.
Peyton suddenly felt that she had never truly seen the man she shared a bed with.
Nolan was undoubtedly a stranger to Peyton in the workplace.
Peyton nodded and said, âI would get used to it.â
Nolan frowned, looking at Peytonâs serious little face. Nolan thought, âDoes Peyton really intend to be
my secretary?â
Nolan wondered what happened to Peyton in just one day and why Peytonâs transformation was so
significant.
In the past, Nolan had a pile of work affairs due to the disappearance of Chris and Peyton. Even after
returning home, Nolan was either having video meetings or reading emails.
After Peyton took a shower, she sat on the bed holding her laptop, relieved that the confinement on her
body had temporarily been lifted.
Peyton quickly searched on the computer. While in the office, Peyton specifically looked at Nolanâs
itinerary on the day of the car accident at Kason.
It was Nolan and Paulaâs birthday that day, so theoretically Nolan wouldnât have any plans that day.
But the G20 Chamber of Commerce was held on that day, so Nolan, as the president, had to attend
and give a speech.
Whether from the company or from the Daltonâs mansion, Nolan would not pass through the road
where the car accident occurred.
Either this was all planned by Nolan. Nolan wanted to witness Kasonâs death firsthand at the scene of
the accident.
Another possibility is that Nolan had to take that path.
On the day when Kason had an accident, there were several other car accidents, so it was not difficult
to search for relevant information.
Peyton quickly found reports about the accident scene. In these reports,
Peyton saw two other accidents on Castle Peak Road.
Although these two car accidents were not as severe as Kasonâs, they still caused traffic congestion.
Coincidentally, one of the short videos captured Nolanâs car.
Even with just one shot of Nolanâs car, Peyton still managed to capture it quickly. The short video was
posted half an hour before Kason had a car accident.
And this road was the optimal route to the scene. Nolanâs presence here indicated that he had
originally intended to go to the G20 Chamber of Commerce.
Nolan changed his route at the last minute due to a car accident, which is why he ended up at the
scene of Kasonâs accident.
By this point, Peytonâs back had already turned cold.
Peytonâs reasoning before has turned into reality. There really was a hand that had been setting up
since two years ago.
And Peyton and Nolan became pieces on each otherâs chessboard.
Even Peytonâs fatherâs car accident was caused by that person and he wanted to blame Nolan for it.
The person wanted to use Peytonâs anger towards the child to seek revenge on Nolan, thus causing a
complete rupture in Peyton and Nolanâs relationship.
If Peyton hadnât changed his mind at the last minute, Chris would have died.
What a cruel person.
The door opened at that moment, and Nolan appeared by the door. Nolan gave Peyton a cold glance
and said, âDid you see a ghost? Why do you have that expression on your face?â
