Chapter 498 - Detour (1/2)
”I think we should not go straight to Naupaka. What do you think?” J asked Jacob whose other hand is on the steering wheel while the other hand is in her hand.
”I'm thinking the same way, Honey.” Jacob glanced and smiled at her. As their relationship deepens, they have already learned to think on the same page.
”Do you want to find a hotel to stay?” He asked.
J shooks her head. ”I won't be comfortable. Let's go back to Evergreen Villa.” Although they cannot see any sign of Novus Rex trailing them, they could not take a risk by going straight to Naupaka. They might accidentally expose the location of Robin Hood Society's headquarters and its leaders. Which the Novus Rex is eager to find.
”As you wish. Should I call Arthur's team?” Jacob agreed that they go back to Evergreen Villa in the meantime. It is considered the safest haven for J.
”Don't. Let them enjoy their vacation.” J doesn't have the heart to disturb them in their most deserved vacation.
....
They only stayed for one day at Evergreen Villa. The next day, they drove towards Naupaka Mountain. After two hours, they arrived at the Loghouse at Naupaka Mountain where J's parents reside.
Peter was already waiting for them at the porch of the Loghouse with his stone-cold face. Peter and Leo were actually the same, having no emotions at all. J sometimes wonders if her parents required that their right-hand man should be like that.
Arthur, on the other hand, is cold as well but he would show some emotions once in a while especially to her.
Thou all four right-hand men have different characteristics and traits, Arthur being a strategic thinker, Leo an abstract thinker, James an idealist, and Peter is a bold and practical experimenter, all have a common denominator and that is all of them were introverts.
”Miss J. Chairman Parker.” Peter greeted them impassively. You wouldn't know if he was glad to see them or pissed at them.
J nodded her head with the same cold demeanor. While Jacob greeted him back with a pat on his shoulders.
