Chapter: 1194
“I know, I know."
Seeing that Amy was about to start her lecture again, Nora decided to end their conversation.
Simultaneously, she tried to push aside the unsettling feelings that arose when she saw that peculiar fan. Her focus was the competition, and nothing else could divert her.
After Nancy's performance, the afternoon segment of the competition concluded. There was another round scheduled for the evening, but not everyone intended to stay.
Phillip had arranged for the team from Sacredice to join them. To his surprise, K arrived in person. They shared a quick embrace.
"What brings you here?"
"The boss called, so here I am. What's the mission this time?"
“Follow someone."
K's expression was a study of irony. As one of the four Deacons in Sacredice, was he going to play the role of a shadowy stalker?
Phillip clapped him on the shoulder. "I know you brought your men. This task is crucial. It concerns the future wife of the head of Sacredice."
K recalled the courageous woman who had once ventured into Otland.
She had left an indelible mark on him.
"Norah, right?"
"Of course."
Phillip rolled his eyes. K was the quintessential workaholic, perpetually on a mission. It was a rare occurrence for him to take a breather and come here. Sometimes, Phillip felt a generational chasm between them.
"Alright, leave it to me. Consider it done."
K gave Phillip a playful shoulder pat. "You're in love, I've heard? Tell the truth about the details..."
K was a master of his craft.
Phillip had full confidence in him. He tasked K with gathering every bit of information about Nora in Bellfolk.
Despite being tailed by bodyguards, Nora and her entourage made no effort to conceal their whereabouts. They checked into a five-star hotel in Bellfolk.
K relayed the intel from his subordinates to Sean. "Their room is on the 18th floor."
“I want to move there. Maybe I can bump into Norah," Joanna said eagerly, unable to contain her excitement.
Susanna shared the same enthusiasm. They hadn't come to Bellfolk to watch the competition willingly; seeing Norah again was their true motivation.
Sean instructed Phillip to inform Matteo and the others that they would all be relocating to a different hotel.
