Chapter 147 The Strategist

Peyton raised the notebook in their hand, which recorded all of Nolan’s preferences.

“I haven’t finished memorizing yet. Mr. Dalton used to put three cubes of sugar in his coffee, liked his steak medium rare, and enjoyed cherries and blueberries…”

Peyton closed the notebook and looked at Nolan seriously, saying, “I remember that these are the fruits you dislike the most. You only eat steak medium rare, and as for coffee, you never add sugar.”

If it weren’t for Ronald’s 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 Nolan’s habits.

Nolan took the notebook from Peyton’s hand and said, “You don’t need to pay attention to the contents inside.”

Nolan’s preferences were inscrutable. Except for Peyton, no one knew Nolan’s true likes.

Nolan said, “You just need to follow the instructions.”

The light emitted from the computer screen in the carriage fell on Nolan’s face. Nolan’s 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, “I would get used to it.”

Nolan frowned, looking at Peyton’s serious little face. Nolan thought, “Does Peyton really intend to be my secretary?”

Nolan wondered what happened to Peyton in just one day and why Peyton’s 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 Nolan’s itinerary on the day of the car accident at Kason.

It was Nolan and Paula’s birthday that day, so theoretically Nolan wouldn’t 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 Dalton’s mansion, Nolan would not pass through the road where the car accident occurred.

Either this was all planned by Nolan. Nolan wanted to witness Kason’s 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 Kason’s, they still caused traffic congestion.

Coincidentally, one of the short videos captured Nolan’s car.

Even with just one shot of Nolan’s 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. Nolan’s 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 Kason’s accident.

By this point, Peyton’s back had already turned cold.

Peyton’s 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 other’s chessboard.

Even Peyton’s father’s car accident was caused by that person and he wanted to blame Nolan for it.

The person wanted to use Peyton’s anger towards the child to seek revenge on Nolan, thus causing a complete rupture in Peyton and Nolan’s relationship.

If Peyton hadn’t 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, “Did you see a ghost? Why do you have that expression on your face?”
