Chapter 368 368 The Figure

He believed spies had already infiltrated the manor through this recruit. but he shook off the feelings.

As Nexus was walking back to his lab one day, an unfamiliar servant suddenly blocked him from behind and whispered that Nora sent her "Miss Nora told me to pass you this note sir, she said she had a surprise in store for you and you should meet her there". The servant then handed him a note with a detailed address.

Curiosity and a tinge of surprise filled Nexus as he received the mysterious note from the unfamiliar servant "why will Nora want to meet me outside the manor" she asked, but the servant girl was already out of sight "where is she?" he couldn't helped but washed himself. Thoughts raced through his mind, contemplating the nature of the surprise Nora had in store for him. Despite the intrigue, he found himself unable to identify the servant, adding a layer of mystery to the situation.

He decided to check the address and so he unfolds the note, he reads the detailed address and learns about the surprise Nora has prepared for him. A hint of surprise crosses Nexus's face; he hadn't pegged Nora for someone who would orchestrate such playful gestures "This is a first, I never thought Nora have this kind of girlfriend side of her, what was she thinking setting up such meeting" he asked himself jovially. However, appreciating her intentions, he decides not to let this opportunity slip by and makes his way to the specified location "Well I have to go now so as not to disappoint her".

Nexus wonders about the nature of the surprise. Is it a celebration of his recent success in alchemy, or perhaps a gesture of gratitude for the vitality elixir? Whatever it is, Nexus finds himself eager to unravel the mystery Nora has crafted for him. His mind races with anticipation as he envisions the possibilities of what awaits him at the given address.

As he made his way to the specified address, Nexus couldn't shake off the feeling of uncertainty. Nora wasn't someone known for elaborate surprises, and the idea of meeting outside the manor seemed unusual.

Ten minutes after Nexus left the Russell Mansion, Nora came back from attending to her business at the previous Howard family mansion, she wanted to see Nexus, they had planned to meet at the training ground but she got caught up in an unexpected situation and she was late. so she headed straight to his quarters. On her way she encounters Crystal.

Crystal who was surprised to still see Nora in the manor and alone, asked her "Why are you the only one here, how about Master Nexus, did you not meet him?"

Nora was taken aback by Nexus's question and couldn't be helped but asked annoyingly "What do you mean by that, where did you say he went to?" With a hint of confusion, Nora questions Crystal about Nexus's whereabouts, she was hoping to find him and shed light on the unexpected situation of why she wasn't there at the training ground to meet up as scheduled.

"He has gone out to meet you after receiving your message and note from a servant girl" Crystal repeated her statement.

"What do you mean he had gone to find me?" Nora inquires, her expression betraying her surprise and lack of awareness regarding Nexus's current actions. Crystal, equally puzzled, responds, "Nexus told me that you wanted to meet him outside. He left to find you." The contradiction between Nexus's message and Nora's confusion creates a perplexing situation for both women.

Nora's mind races as she tries to make sense of the conflicting information. Did Nexus misinterpret her plans, or was there a misunderstanding between them? Crystal, caught between the messages she received from both parties, attempts to reconcile the discrepancies but finds herself equally perplexed.

The two women Nora and Crystal, stood at the compound with furrowed brows, sharing a moment of mutual bewilderment. Nora wonders about the purpose of Nexus's unexpected search for her, while Crystal grapples with the conflicting instructions she received. Little did Nexus who was on his way to unravel the surprise Nora had prepared for him know that he was walking into a trap, creating an unintentional twist in their plans.

lightsnοvεl Nexus stands outside the fancy restaurant and takes a moment to observe the grandeur of the place. The architecture and ambiance strike him as lavish, and he wonders why Nora would choose such an opulent venue for a surprise. "Why would she choose such a secretive way to meet?" Nexus pondered, mentally trying to unravel the mystery. "She must have something special in mind," he muses, his curiosity was piqued, however, his curiosity, outweighed any reservations he had.

As he enters the restaurant, Nexus is greeted by the attentive waiter who seems to know him by sight and has been waiting for him. The waiter, a poised and well-dressed individual, greets him with a subtle bow. "Welcome, Mr. Nexus. We've been expecting you," the waiter says with a courteous smile The familiarity surprises Nexus, but he nods his head appreciatively at the courteous welcome "Thank you," he says.n/-0velb1n

"Follow me, sir, she is waiting for you in our private room" The waiter guides him to a private room, and as he approaches the entrance, a tantalizing aroma wafts through the air, stirring a sense of anticipation within him. The waiter guides Nexus through the exquisite dining area, filled with the murmur of hushed conversations and the clinking of fine china. The ambiance exudes an air of sophistication, and Nexus can't help but marvel at the opulence of the surroundings. As they approach the private room, the waiter engages Nexus in casual conversation, skillfully navigating topics that subtly hint at his familiarity with Nexus's background.

"I must say, Mr. Nexus, your presence here adds a touch of prestige to our establishment," the waiter remarks, leading him to believe that perhaps this rendezvous holds more significance than a simple surprise from Nora. Nexus, intrigued and slightly on edge, responds with a polite smile, "Thank you. I'm curious to see what awaits me."

Upon reaching the private room, the waiter opens the door with a flourish, revealing a scene of romantic decadence. The carefully arranged table, bathed in the warm glow of candlelight, showcases an attention to detail that suggests Nora's meticulous planning. Nexus can't help but be impressed by the effort that has gone into creating this ambiance.

Nexus steps into the room, his eyes adjusting to the dim lighting. Before him, a beautifully set table catches his attention, adorned with elegant flowers and candles. A figure shrouded in shadows is seated at the table , adding an air of mystery to the scene.

A sultry voice emerges from the dimness, "Welcome, Nexus." The voice is unmistakably Nora's, but there's a hint of something else—perhaps mischief or playfulness. Nexus, still uncertain about the nature of the surprise, replies, "Nora, what's all this about? What's the surprise?"

The figure, enjoying the suspense she has created, responds coyly, "Sit, and you'll find out." Nexus, though intrigued, can't help but feel a twinge of uncertainty. As he took his seat, he couldn't shake the feeling that he'd walked into a scenario where the unexpected was about to unfold.
