Deep Affection: Honey, Come Back To Me

Chapter 224 You Bastard

A cheer sounded from outside, pulling Nina back to reality.

She and John looked at the door and heard a woman yelling, "We did it!"

The Memory Charm had been successfully developed and produced ahead of schedule.

Frowning, John thought that Albert's newly developed drug was not that good.

"Just ignore them. Inform Richard and Henry to surround Blue Mountain without alerting anyone. They're not to act rashly without my order."

"All right. Did you lie to me just now? Have you already figured out a way to get out of this place?"

John ran his fingers through Nina's hair and chuckled. "Well, I was determined to take you away by force if you ever refused to come home with me."

"You bastard!" Nina whined, slapping John playfully in the arm.

Nina had contacted Henry first because he was a hacker, and only he could crack the code she sent.

Then, she analyzed the data of Albert's shady laboratory. The place was secluded, and it had complete security facilities with a high network security index. It was very difficult to break through.

She could not do it alone.

Nina planned to use the same method she used before. "There's only one way. Once they turn in for the night, I'll cut off the power, which will deactivate their retinal recognition

wrist and held it tightly. He stood up as well and pulled her behind him.

"I'll go with her," John demanded.

"No. I will talk to her alone," Albert resisted.

Ignoring the mockery in Albert's tone, John repeated through gritted teeth, "I will go with her."

He turned to face Nina and said, "I won't let you talk to him alone. Either he talks to both of us or he doesn't talk to anyone at all."

A sense of oppression hung in the air like storm clouds about to burst.

A stiff smile formed on Albert's face. "Fine. No talk then."

He turned around and was about to leave, but Nina stopped him. "Wait."

Albert smiled smugly.

He had expected that Nina would compromise.

John was a tough guy, but Nina was not.

John once threatened her using Michelle, and she instantly yielded. She always compromised for those dear to her.

"Very well. Follow me." Then, Albert turned on his heel and left.

Nina stood on tiptoe and kissed the corner of John's mouth before following Albert out.

As the door swung shut and Nina's figure disappeared behind it, John's left eyelid twitched. He felt his heart sink and his palms turn cold.

He knitted his brows.

Even if Nina flashed him a reassuring smile before heading out, he did not feel at ease at all.
