Chapter 388: Chapter 237: Are Your Kept Bad Boys Fighting Among Themselves? (Part 2)
Didn’t expect Nora to buy snacks again today.
She had just eaten two sticks like a hamster when Pedro furrowed his brows and started warning, "Eat fewer snacks."
Picked up another one and took a bite, Katherine looked forward suspiciously, "Wasn’t it you who gave them to me?"
Pedro retorted, "Did I tell you to eat it now?"
"..."
Katherine was completely conflicted.
At this moment, the sound of eating a twisted dough snack came from the front, and Katherine blinked, leaned forward, and saw Nora casually eating. She was stunned, "Nora..."
"Ignore him."
First said to Katherine, Nora took out a piece and held it up to Pedro’s mouth, saying, "Open your mouth."
Pedro opened his mouth and ate the twisted dough snack Nora fed him.
"..."
Katherine blinked her eyes.
"Partners in crime," after successfully dragging Pedro into complicity, Nora raised an eyebrow at Katherine.
At this moment, Pedro, who was forced into ’complicity,’ nonchalantly said, "Feed me another one."
Katherine: ??? Who was just lecturing her?
Amid her surprise, Katherine saw Nora hand another piece to Pedro, then tidied his rather messy short hair after feeding it to him.
"..."
Katherine sat back in her seat full of shock.
Silently placing the twisted dough snack aside, Katherine took out her phone to send a message in the friends’ group chat.
[Katherine Collins]: [Surprised][Surprised][Surprised]
[Katherine Collins]: I actually got to eat Master Pedro’s dog food.
Just as the message was sent, the phone in front beeped twice.
Katherine: "..."
Forgot Pedro was in the group chat too!
The screen of the phone in front brightened, Pedro glanced at it, and after seeing the message, he surprisingly said nothing and calmly drove towards the restaurant.
Katherine let out a sigh of relief.
However, she couldn’t handle the enthusiastic replies from friends in the group, and the ding-dong of messages echoed the whole way.
Pedro, however, did not mute the sound, as if deliberately teasing Katherine.
Finally, hearing the continuous ding-dong, Nora simply picked up Pedro’s phone.
"Password."
Wiping her fingers with a tissue, Nora lazily asked.
Pedro said, "Your birthday."
Nora glanced at him.
Then, she entered her birthday, and sure enough, it unlocked.
Katherine: "..." Emmm, didn’t have enough of the twisted dough snacks, but definitely had my fill of dog food.
Nora initially intended to set the group messages to silent temporarily, but once she opened it, she discovered the chat content was about her.
Everyone was curious about what "Master Pedro’s wife" was like.
But Katherine, who sparked the conversation, didn’t reply after the first couple of messages, driving them to guess incessantly.
Nora chuckled.
"In your group chat..." while setting the message, Nora glanced at the group members, hesitated, and suddenly asked, "Isn’t Camilo Nogueira in there?"
Amid an awkward moment, hearing Nora’s question, Katherine blinked and answered honestly, "Except for Master Pedro, none of us are really familiar with him. We don’t hang out together."
In other words, they, as unemployed wanderers, aren’t in the same circle as Camilo Nogueira.
"Oh."
Nora nodded slightly and put Pedro’s phone back.
Then, she turned to Pedro and asked, "I know someone named Joshua Nogueira, what’s his relationship with Camilo Nogueira?"
"Brothers," Pedro paused for a moment, "How do you know him?"
"Remember that little senior from the peacekeeping mission? Fátima," Nora explained lightly, "Joshua, her husband."
Joshua is a soldier, in the same unit as Fátima.
By chance, Nora had met him a few times.
Earlier at Virtue Retreat, when she met Camilo Nogueira, Nora thought of Joshua Nogueira, but the two had such different temperaments that she didn’t dwell much... so it wasn’t such a coincidence after all.
Katherine + Pedro: "..."
This world really is small.
*
Nora and Pedro had originally planned to stroll through the night market, but since they were having dinner with Katherine, they cancelled it last minute.
The twisted dough snacks and dinner made them lose all appetite to fit anything else, so after eating, Pedro sent them back to the hotel.
"You two go in first." He gazed at the hotel entrance and advised.
"What about you?"
"Making a call."
Claiming to make a call was a lie; avoiding entering the hotel together with Nora was the truth.
Nora vaguely sensed something, but didn’t expose it, and went into the hotel with Katherine.
...
About half an hour later, Pedro returned to the hotel room.
The door was opened by Katherine.
Upon seeing this childhood friend, Pedro immediately frowned, "Where is she?"
"On a call."
Feeling despised, Katherine sighed inwardly and pointed inside.
Listening closely, sure enough, the sound of Nora speaking softly could be heard.
